Society ma tron Dina Merrill, first cousin to Barbara Hutton and daughter of Wall Street magnate E. F. Hutton, is will ing to trade her Blue Book rating for an Academy Award. It's a rare thing when an east ern socia lite Yernon Scott win swaP the, rarkiea atmosphere of the "400" for Zanyville by the Sea. Gene Tierney was one who attempted to transplant the family tree to Hollywood, and Grace Kelly al most qualified, but her social register standing was relatively new. . Blue-eyed Dina says it's not surprising that she's taking a fling at acting, and adds, "I'm only surprised I haven't been thrown out of the Blue Book." Struggling Necessary The patrician beauty explain ed that few finishing school grads wanted to struggle and claw to get ahead a "must" for ambitious actresses. "Everything we are trained to be is the opposite of what an actress learns,'.' said Dina during lunch at the Brown Derby and never faltering once with the right knife or spoon. Under, long-term contract to 20th Century-Fox, where she played in "The Desk Set," Dina is in movieland for a television role. She has a willowy figure and the blonde good looks of Princess Grace. "My permanent home is in New York," Dina said. "I have three lovely children and a won derful husband." Resigned to Career Hubby is Stanley Rumbough Jr., president of the American Totalisator Co. and a socialite in his own right. He thought Dina had lost her mind when she insisted on an acting career, but is now resigned to her capers. "Father didn't like the idea either," Dina confided with a smile. "There was a time when he thought all actresses were 'eyil women.' In fact, he wouldn't go to see me in a Broadway play because I por taryed a fallen woman. "In addition to my family's objections, being in the Blue Book has hindered my career. That's why I took another name. Producers automatically believe society girls have no talent."
