MAIL TRIBUNE, M,4fM, Q-gen, W4nhy. May 7, 195t The Hollywood Scene BJj Hollywood ; (un Actor Ray Danton isn't a bit accom odating when it comes to pin ning labels on his personality. Just when you've got him pegged as a straight-down-the-middle nonconformist he con fides he shaved before the interview. And five minutes after the tall, dark actor who portrays the tennis-playing husband in Diana Barrymore's "Too Mpch, Too Soon" paints a ward picture of Hollywood as a flace where an actor has to dig deep to be stimulated in his profession, he admits the whole thing probably is a coyerup of his own tendency to.be lazy. Daily Routine Outlined In any event, the daily rou tine Danton outlined during a brief "time out" for lunch with his actress wife, Julie Adams, should send the aver age actor scurrying for the psychiatrist's lounge if he had time to work in an anal yst. i'l admit I've a compulsive need to be active," Danton said as he explained . that when his free lance acting HAZEL JOHNSON ted Presi Writer status finds him unemployed he actually is busier than when he's making a picture. "Going to work doesn't re quire half the energy it takes to be unemployed," he said in a half-serious, kidding-on-the square conversational tone. Day Begins at 8 a.m. "A typical, "unemployed type day begins with going riding about 8 o'clock in the morning. An hour later I'm at the gym,-working out for a couple of hours so I won't be stiff. Then I take an hour for lunch and next head for the tennis court until dinner. Aftr dinner I take care of such things as saying hello to my child and wife before I go to my acting class. Or else I go do some reading. "One of the traps of Holly wood is that unless you do get out and increase your ex periences when it comes time to portray someone before the camera you realize that all this time' you haven't seen any people other than actors.

It can be summed up in two. overall facts that have emerged from the committee's lengthy hearings: Scientists and military leaders are generally con vinced that man's conquest of space is a pure bet within 25 years. Each group thinks the job can best be done if it has the whip hand. The space travel forecast is a Buck Rogers vision come to life. Nuclear - powered rocket ships would travel to such nearby planets as Mars 49 million miles away. Bases would be established on the moon possibly on other planets. Meteorologists would pro vide accurate weather fore casts or. perhaps even control the weather itself. Vast new sources of wealth might be found on the moon and plan ets. And possibly most im portant scientists, may wrest new knowledge from the far reaches of space that could yield to new benefits yet un dreamed. President Eisenhower has proposed that the U. S. pro- Army's Oldest Horse Has Friend Washington (IP) Tony, the Army's oldest working horse, has a friend in Con gress. Rep. Joel T. Broyhill (R Va.) has asked the Army not to destroy Tony for economy reasons when the horse fin ished 18 years of service. Tony now is stationed at Ft. Myer, Va., in Broyhill's district. In a letter to Maj. Gen. A. T. McNamara, Army quarter master general, Broyhill said he was "appalled" by the "crass ingratitude" of the gov ernment. ? "If you will advise me promptly as to the amount re quired to provide for this gal lant steed in retirement," Broyhill wrote, "I will do everything possible to include that amount as an amendment to one of the Armed Forces supply bills.". Contractors Talk Laborer Strike Portland OH Associated General Contractors called a meeting of its members here today to discuss a strike of laborers that has crippled heavy construction work in Oregon. - Negotiations with the Ore gon State Council of Laborers, AFL-CIO, were not expected to resume until after the meet ing. The strike started Mon day over union demands for a 30-cent hourly package wage increase. The- walkout has idled major highway construction in Oregon,- bridge and other projects in the Portland area and work at Brownlee dam on the Oregon side of the Snake river. Some projects which "do not employ heavy construc tion workers were not affected. Mediation Efforts Made at Portland Portland (IB Members 'of the AFL-CIO Lumber, and Sawmill Workers union local 2562 and representatives of the Weyerhaeuser Timber Company were tp. meet with a federal mediator here today to discuss a dispute that re sulted in a walkout at North Bend last week. Some 300 loggers at the North Bend Weyerhaeuser mill left their jobs in dispute over shifting of a truck driver to another job. The null was reported running low on logs. AMERICANS BUY DOGS London (IT) Americans have become a prime market for English bulldogs at prices up to $2,800.

The Defense Depart ment's already-established Ad vanced Research Projects A gency (ARPA). It would run all primarily space projects. 2. A civilian space agency built around the National Ad visory Committee for . Aero nautics (NACA). r The new agency the national Aero nautics and Space Agency (NASA) would run all pri marily civilian - orientated projects. The House Space Committee has been considering the pro posal at hearings for more than two weeks. The Senate Space Committee is beginning its hearings this week. All Pentagon officials military and civilian have praised the civilian agency plan in testimony before the House Committee. But they also stressed that the Defense Department should maintain priority in space exploration. And there is the rub. Argue Over Money Top . space scientists have argued that the bulk of the millions spent on space ex ploration should be given to the civilian agency.. They contend that if the civilian agency becomes mere ly an adjunct of the Pentagon, limited military goals will dominate the entire national program. They say, in that event, pure research will be neglect ed, the nation will lose count less benefits for peace and defense and Russia will wind up dominating the solar sys tem. At present, the administra tion-has tentatively proposed to pump $100 million into the civilian space program during its first year. The spending would rise to about $300 mil lion by 1962. Many top space scientists contend much more must be given the agency. Their pro posals range from $500 mil lion to $1 billion a year. Calls Figure Minimum NACA director Hugh L. Dryden, who drew up the proposed civilian program, said that the administration had tentatively proposed about a minimum figure. Space . committee counsel George J. Feldman said "a lot of people in' the government don't appreciate that the Uni ted States is in a life-and-death struggle with" Russia for space." v He said testimony before the committee shows the na tion needs a strong, well-financed . civilian agency under a strong high-ranking admin istrator. . ' Space scientists generally agree that the civilian agency must vigorously pursue a broad comprehensive pro gram not a series of spor atic crash projects. For this reason, many scien tists have shied away from rushing into some of the hun dreds of proposed projects until a broad long-range pro gram is laid down. Remember Mom .
