By HAZEL JOHNSOM t. United Presi Writer operations which kept him from grotesque facial disfig uration. And Hollywood'i acknowl edgement of the surgeon's skill came 15 years later when Fleming was chosen to play the romantic -lead opposite glamour gal Zsa Zsa Gabor in Allied Artists' recently completed movie, "Queen of the Universe." All of which means you should be able to. tag "and he acted happily ever after" on the end of the near fairy tale of a movie star who once came close to losing the very quality needed for most ro mantic parts -r- a handsome face. No Prince Charming However, Fleming never could have qualified, coun tenancewise, in the Prince Charming class in the first place. "That 200-pound steel block that slipped didn't smash in the face of a good looking youth," the 31-year-old bach elor explained. "When it hap pened I was an ugly kid, 17 years old, who was conspicu ous with a tremendously large nose." Fleming's nose wasn't the only thing that bothered him. He was plagued by club feet as a child, and for years had his teeth encased in braces. "The last thing I was wor ried about after that block slipped was my appearance," he said. "I was used to being ugly. But I was afraid I might lose an eye. And I certainly had no idea I'd end up looking like this." , "Like this' means rugged handsome features atop a six foot three - inch 200-pound frame. "I used to believe that if I could look like a human being I could lick the world," he said. "The things , I valued most were money and looks." Fleming started toward his financial goal by working as a hod-carrier when he was 13 Vfc. The actor had made his own way since he was 9 and had run away from his con struction worker father after a beating. Reconstruction of his facial features was necessary after a heavy bar he was attempt ing to balance above his head slipped and narrowly missed killing him.
