Movies Pitched At Teenage Fans For Quick Dollar By VERNON SCOTT United Pres. Correspondent Hollywood W More and more movies are being pitched to teen-agers as producers hustle to claim the dollar that the crew cut and pony tail set spends at the boxoffice. Like it or not, the following stories have been filed with the title registration bureau of the Motion Picture association of America: "I Was A Teen Age Geisha Girl," "I Was A Teen Age Gang ster," "Teen Age Gangs," "Teen Age Party Girls," "Girl Gang Confidential." Inspired by Quickiei Inspiration for these gems were two successful "quickies" titled "I Was A Teen Age Were wolf," and "Bop Girl Goes Cal ypso." These lulus are cheap to make, require no big name stars and escape being reviewed by news paper and magazine critics. Still, they make money. Most movie bigwigs shrug their shoulders and hope it's a phase. But until the teen age mo vie runs its course here are a few suggested titles: Suggested Title. "I Was A Teen Age Alcohol ic." "Switchblade Love" musical. "I Grew A Ducktail For The FBI." "Bonjour Benzadrine," melo drama. "Teen For Two." "Duel In The Schoolyard." "I Kicked The Rock 'N' Roll Habit." Documentary. "Teen Age Tong War!" "Teen Age Vampire." "Son Of Teen Age Vampire Strikes Back," sequel. "The Teen Age Thing From Outer Space." "He Had A Teen Age Monkey On His Back." "The Zipgun And I." "Sideburns And Sympathy." "Gunfight At The O.K. Drive in." western. "I Was A Teen Age Grave Robber." "Drag Strip Dracula." "Hub Caps At Midnight."

Fugitive Faces Possible Kidnap, Assault Charges Pocatello, Idaho (IP) A young Montana State prison fugitive faced possible kidnap and as sault charges today for abduct ing and raping a young house wife before a long distance tele phone call to his mother induced him to end a 24- hour crime spree. The convict, Willard Arthur Brown, 23, also abducted two young Canadian men and held an elderly man and three chil dren as hostages in a farmhouse before his mother in Jamestown, N.Y., talked him out of a vow that he never would be taken alive. Prison Record Good Authorities said Brown es caped Saturday night from the prison at Deer Lodge, Mont., where his record had been so good that he was a trusty and would have been eligible for parole next year from a four year sentence for burglary. He surrendered meekly to a state policeman and a deputy sheriff near Lava Hot Springs, Idaho, after being assured he would not be executed when re turned to prison. He was brought here for questioning by the FBI. Two hours after he escaped, Brown stole a state-owned car and a 30-30 rifle, then broke into the home of Mrs. Laura Shafford, 24, Galen, Mont. Mrs. Shafford said he forced her to drive him toward the Idaho border and raped her before releasing her some eight hours later when his car ran out of gas. After freeing the young house wife, Brown flagged down a car driven by Gordon Hunter, 21, and Fred Helsel, 20, both of Moose Jaw, Sask., who were en route to California seeking jobs. Ordered lo Stop Hunter and Helsel said he forced them to drive through Idaho but ordered them to stop near Downey, 40 miles north pi the Utah border. The Canad ians said he made them enter a lean-to and tied them with shirts before fleeing in their car. The men escaped and notified police. When he heard over the car radio that he was the object of a two-state search, Brown sought refuge in a farmhouse where J. R. Maughan, 72, was baby sit ting with his three grandchil dren. While officers converged on the farmhouse on the informa tion furnished by the two Can adians and an unidentified mo torist, , Brown called his mother, Mrs. Dorothy Wilczek, in James town, 2.800 miles away. He said she talked him into surrendering. Nautilus Travels Over, 1,000 Miles Under Arctic Ice San Francisco W The atomic-powered submarine Nau tilus recently traveled more than 1,000 miles under the Artie ' ice pack in five and one-half days in an eerie underwater cruise to obtain scientific data, j Navy Secretary Thomas S. Gates Jr. disclosed the cruise Sunday on his arrival on the West Coast to speak to Republi can money-raising groups. He speaks tonight in San Jose and Tuesday night in Oakland. "The Nautilus has scored an other first," Gates said. "Just recently, she has com pleted an Arctic cruise to enable scientific and operational per sonnel to obtain data on under ice conditions, oceanographic studies of currents and cold weather operations of equipment and machinery. Five And A Half Days "The Nautilus spent a total of five and one-half days under the Arctic ice pack, traveling over a thousand miles while gather ing these scientific data." Gates said the sub entered the Arctic from the Atlantic Ocean, but gave no further details. Gates said the Nautilus' feat in the Arctic shows that the sub marine will displace the depth charge as the anti-submarine weapon. "We are producing better depth charges," Gates said. "We tested an atomic one a few days ago. But increased speeds and sonar equipment, such as that carried by the Nautilus, means that it will be sub against sub." Monday, October 28, 1957 MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUrfT THRES Anastasia Gets Quiet Burial New York W Albert Anastasia, reputed mastermind of at least 63 gangland execu tions by Murder, Inc., was to be buried quietly today with none of the splash of the underworld funerals that marked the roaring 20s when he was getting his start as a waterfront punk. The 55-year-old gangster, who was shot down Friday in the grimly efficient Murder, Inc., manner, was interred in a simple S900 casket in non-denomination Greenwood cemetery in Brooklyn, where he and his brother, "Tough Tony" Ana stasia, ruled the crime - ridden docks. The sweeping investigation touched off by the assassination in the barbershop of the Park Sheraton Hotel brought only one arrest. Anastasias bodyguard, An thony Coppola, 49. was held under 550,000 bond on a vag rancy charge after he refused to tell police why he was not at the boss mobster's side when two silent gunmen strode into the barbershop, hit Anastasia with five of 10 shots and then disap peared into the sidewalk crowds.
