Hollywood IP) Stewart Granger derided his movie ca reer today, saying acting is an unmanly busi- ! ness better suited to wo men. 'To me act is torture," the ruggedly handsome act or says. "Tra ditionally act ors have had Vernon Scott to apologize for being what they are even as I am doing now. "A man who works with his hands for a living carpenters, ditchdiggers or bricklayers never has to vouch for his man hood. Neither do doctors, lawy ers or newspapermen: They know they're dong a man's work in a man's world. But not actors. Our work is play-acting in a world of make believe. And I'm fed up with it." Where does the torture come in? Hothouse Flower Feeling '"Standing in front of a camera with a light meter stuck in your face is ridiculous," he grinned. "Standing under blazing lights like a hothouse flower while the crew looks on from the shadows doesn't help either. fey TRY NEW CABINET Mid-dle-roader Rene Pleven agreed to form a new cab inet. But, the former Pre mier of France laid down as one condition that he must remain in power for at least a year. "Having a guy pat you on the face w-ith a powder puff can give a man a sinking feeling, too. But worst of all is having to make love to an actress at nine in the morning with a gang of people gawking. Believe me, that' tor ture." Why, then, does English-born Granger put up with it? 'It's a way of life that pays a lot of money," he explained. "I don't like the way of life. But I do like the money. It pays off the mortages on my ranches." As owner of 76.000 acres of New Mexico and Arizona ranch land, Granger, with his actress wife, Jean Simmons, manages to get away from the artificial world of acting. Something Worth While "Out on the ranch I feel I'm doing a man's job, even if I don't do everything right," he said. "When I'm on a cow pony cutting calves from the herd T know I'm doing something worthwhile. "And I don't have to be charm ing or put up with insulting re marks. "I can't punch a man in the nose if he asks me rude things about my wife at a Hollywood party. I'm emasculated. I have to laugh it off to keep from get ting a reputation as a party brawler. So I take the abuse. "But on my ranch it's dif ferent. If a guy gets out of line, I can break him in two without worrying about headlines."

Hard water makes the inhibitors used in many anti-freezes precipitate out, materially reducing their protec tive qualities. 2.

Neutralizes all acids The seven different metals used in modern cool ing systems can become corroded when a per-; manent anti-freeze solution turns acid. However, "Zerex" with MR-8 has extra "reserve alkalin ity" that gives winter-long protection from the corrosive action of cooling system acids. 4. Keeps rust In suspension - "Zerex" with MR-8 keeps the cooling systems of today's complex engines clean and free-flowing.
