Grauman's Theater Closes Ending Glamourous Chapter By VERNON SCOTT United Press Hollywood Writ Hollywood (IP) Grau- man's Chinese theater, a film town landmark for the past 36 years, shuttered its doors this week, bringing to an end a zany, glamour-packed chap ter of Hollywood history The rococo movie palace will undergo a 'face lif and renovation in the nex; two months to become the first theater in the world to ex hibit a new film technique modestly tabbed Cinemiracle thus heralding still another era. A brace of ornate pagodas will be toppled from either side of the stage, down will come the fancy columns even the seats will be yanked But' out in the forecourt the footprints in cement will remain, indelibly recalling Hollywood's roaring '20s. Some 130 stars have Im printed their profiles, hands. feet and even six-guns in the cement. The tradition goes back to 1927 when the late Sid Grauman escorted Mary Pickford, Douglas Fairbanks and Norma Talmadge to see construction of his theater, When they stepped from a block long limousine Miss Talmadge accidentally walk ed through the wet cement on the curb. Gruman had her sign her name, then insisted that Miss Pickford and Fair banks follow suit. Down through the years the Chinese has klieg-lighted hundreds of glittering pre mieres. It popped into the news last year during the Confidential trial when it was alleged Maureen O'Hara was found necking in the last row. Grand Opening Recalled At its grand opening, May 18, 1927, Cecil B. DeMille's King of Kings" was pre- miered on a 16xl9-foot screen. When the Chinese reopens m April a monstrous 100x40 foot wall-to-wall, ceiling-to- floor screen will give audi ences a new dimension in motion pictures. Making its world premiere will be "Windjammer," an adventure epic in the new three-camera, three-projector Cinemiracle process. It's a combination of 3-D and wide screen that gives viewers the feeling they are a part of the action taking place on the screen. The man behind the new development is Elmer C. Rho den, president of National Theaters. Rhoden Directs Remodeling Under his direction the old Chinese is being remodeled Explorer Signals Heard in Oregon Portland (IB Three moni toring stations in northwest Oregou Sunday night picked up signals from Explorer, America s earth satellite. The faint steady whistle was heard about 7:30 p.m. and again about 9:35 p.m. The sounds were heard by Jim Strickland in Portland for the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry, by Bob Gibson in Salem who also is on the science center hook up, and by staff members of the Linfield Research Institute in McMinnville. Gibson said the sound came in weak and sounded much like the Russian sputnik after it had stopped beeping. Ham operators here said they were unable to pick up the sound because the orbit is so far. south. . Willows Boy Seoul Found Dead in Snow Willows, Calif. OP) The nine-day search for 12-year-old Boy Scout Dennis Wor schmidt ended tragically Sun day when his frozen body was found in a clump of firs in Mill Creek canyon. The boy had been sought by more than 1,000 men aided by bloodhounds, horses, planes and helicopters. Glenn County Coroner Howard Street said the boy apparently died of exposure and exhaustion in a blizzard which swept the area on the night of Jan. 25 just a few hours after young Wurschmidt disappeared while playing with 11 other scouts. The boy, son of Mr. and Mrs. Gervin Wurschmidt, of i Willows, was ' on his first j camping trip with his troop.

"We will lose about 450 seats," he said, "but the new chairs will be six inches deep er and much more comforta ble. The theater will have a special 50-seat area in the balcony for special parties. Under the new plan the Chinese will show only Cine miracle pictures, killing off the old glamour days of pre U.P. Writers View Future By UNITED PRESS United Press correspond ents around the world look ahead at the news that will make the headlines. Pan-Arab Pressure Mideast observers think one of the first results of the Egyptian-Syrian merger will be demands from other Mid east countries for greatly in creased aid from the United States. Such demands may come from King Saud of Saudi Arabia, King Feisal of Iraq, King Hussein of Jordan and President Camille Cha moun of Lebanon. Each could lose his job if pan-Arabism spreads. Pan-Arabism has powerful appeal to a new class of educated Arabs throughout the Middle East It Floats On Oil Speaking of the Middle East, look for the new chief of Army research and de velopment. Gen. Arthur G. Trudeau, to push for stronger and stronger U.S. measures to combat Soviet penetration in that strategic area. As long ago as 1952, he is known to have warned that the biggest single danger to the free world would be the loss of Middle East oil. He feels the U.S. must take the. offensive, even if it means austerity never known on the home front. The Russian Tentacle Free Asian diplomats fear Russia soon will have Ceylon right in the Soviet's hip pocket. Russia has granted Ceylon $16 million for indus trial and agricultural proj ects and is moving in on the propaganda front. Latest move is an agreement to make Russian theatrical talent available to establish a na tional, theater in Colombo, Russian books are being trans lated into Sinhalese, a five man team of Ceylonese doc tors will visit Russia and a Russian football team will visit Ceylon this year.

"We expect our pictures to run a year or more at the Chinese," Rhoden concluded. "By the end of that time an other Cinemiracle film will be ready to be exhibited. We believe it is a new kind of entertainment with a grand old theater leading the way to better pictures." ews were persistent reports that his political enemies were plotting an attempt on his life.

Swim For Health Reports reaching Western capitals indicate Marshal Tito's health is none too good these ;days. The Yugoslav leader is said to be suffering from rheumatism and a slip ped disc.

Herter Jr.,' former GOP governor of Massachusetts, was approached "informally" recently on the possibility of opposing Democratic Sen. John F. Kennedy in the No vember elections.

The Family Council Editor's note: The Family Council consists of a Judge, a psychiatrist, three clergymen, a newspaper editor, a women's editor and two writers. Each article is a summary of an actual report. The Family Council does not give advice: It merely reports on problems that have been dealt with by responsible agencies and counselors. Jacqueline S. Dora thinks her reputation was ruined when she was born. Dora M. My parents are hypocrites. Jacqueline S. I am a girl of 17 and have a best friend of my own age who has a ter rible problem. Dora is really a nice girl, but she goes too far in pet ting and kissing with her dates. When I told her this was. wrong, she said it can't make any difference because her reputation was ruined when she was born. She said she has learned that she was born only seven months after her parents were married. I told her that nobody will ever find out about this, but she could get into trouble because of what she is doing. She is sure, however, that everyone in ' our community knows about it and that no nice boy will marry her. Dora M. My parents al ways said they were married a year before I was born and celebrate their anniversary on a date which corresponds to this story. But one day a few years ago I was looking for something among my mother's papers and found this marriage license with a different date on it. Ever since that time I have had no respect for my par ents. They are hypocrites be cause they are always preach ing about doing right, but they don't do right them selves. They always talk about other people drinking too , much, but they have often come home tight after a party. If I ever get into serious trouble, it will really be be cause of my parents. They are worse than anyone else in spite of all they preach. The Council Dora has a o-erious problem indeed, but it is not the one she thinks. Announcement Eugene V.

LAW PROFESSOR DIES Freeport, N.Y. -(IPl Brook lyn Law School Professor Martin H. Weyrauch, 72, died Saturday in Mercy hospital, Rockville Centre, N.Y. A for mer editor and publisher of the old "New York Evening Graphic" and managing edi tor of the now defunct Brook lyn "Eagle," Weyrauch taught at Brooklyn Law school from 1936 until his death. He was a member of the New York State Crime commission from 1929 to 1931 and in 1944 and 1945 was chief assistant to Hiram C. Todd, special assist ant attorney general of New York. Dora's real problem is her estrangement from her par ents, her suspicion of them and the fantasy she is build ine ud about herself and them, ' Dora should not have been poking around among her mother's personal papers, but since she committed this breach of ethics and found something that concerned her and upset her, she should have spoken to her mother about it. We suspect there is a possibility that Dora was mistaken about the date she saw on the marriage license. Young adolescents sometimes build up a grandiose fantasy based on an error or a small incident. It is also possible that Dora was a premature child and, to spare her and themselves any embarrassment, the par ents decided to celebrate their wedding anniversary on a different date. In any case, Dora should try to under stand the facts before con demning her parents. Even if these parents were married after their child was on the way, Dora should give them credit for rectifying their error, maintaining their mar riage and preaching righteous conduct to her. Dora's general attitude, however, suggests that she feels she is bad and unworthy of nice friends and decent re lationships. She tries to put the blame on her parents and this means that she is free of responsibility for creating her own good life. We agree with Jacqueline that she is headed for serious trouble.
