This bit of information might pass unnoticed but for the fact that the man was Jule Styne and Jule Styne is the composer of the popular sonf , "Three Coins in a Foun tain." What really makes it interesting is ,that he had never before seen the foun tain. CinaCitta Cinema City, is Rome's Hollywood. Much American activity is taking place ofti that way two im portant films are being made. The one Ben Hur, attracts all the colossal, stupendous adjectives in the book. MGM is spending $18 million which they say is more money than any other film has ever- cost. This sort of thing mounts up expenses 85 valuable horses, imported -from Jugoslavia, which must be housed, fed dhd cared for over a period of several months; an exact replica of the Circus Maximus of Jerusalem being built at CinaCitta; also an artificial lake for the naval battle. The actual filming was started on the 20th of May, and now the director is working on the famous chariot race of the great epic. This alone will take six weeks. Briton's Christopher Frye is doing part of the script work. Charles Heston is play ing Ben Hur, and a girl from Israel (chosen from innumer able applicants) has the femi nine lead. Her name is Haeja Hareet. The filming will take until December. . .The other big American picture being produced here is "The Nun's Story." Audrey Hepburn plays the lead, in this one. Last Saturday she entertained the entire cast of 200 at a party. Perry Como has a televi sion show in Rome. It is dis appointing, however, as it is old films and doesn't do the popular, handsome singer jas tice. Italian television is good, ordinarily, and one appreci ates the handling of advertis ing. It is two minutes at the beginning of a show that, and no more. Toast Substitutes Instead of the usual toast triangles, serve creamed foods on toasted English muffins, chow mein noodles, pastry shells, baked potatoes, rice, crisp crackers, spaghetti or noodle nests. . Try whipped cottage cheese, orange juice and grated orange rind, sour cream and jellied cranberry sauce or cream cheese with chopped pineapple and maraschino cherries to top fruit salads. Every day, to Rome, come the great, the near great, the illustrious, the near illustri ous saints and sinners and American movie luminaries. Many of these people stay at the Excelsior hotel. The Ex celsior is on the Via Veneto Rome's Fifth Avenue and its most scintillating' street. In order to go in or out of the hotel, these news makers must do it on the Via Veneto, and to stroll on the Via Vene to (a popular outdoor diver sion with hoi polli and celeb rities alike), they must pass the outdoor coffee tables at Doney's. So, if you are a fan of public idols, you -may see them daily, for the price of a cup of coffee, , 91st Birthday Is Celebrated By George Haff Gold Hill George Haff, well known Gold Hill man, celebrated his 91st birthday anniversary, June 14.
