Oppcnheimcr The return of a conquering hero is a ' major event in any small town. In Eu ropean communities, where the heroes are often descendants of emigrants who left years ago to conquer the New World, the occasion has special significance. And when the hero is a movie star and the town is inhabited by enthusiastic paisani in film conscipus Italy, the event takes on epic proportions. Such an event happened recently to Anthony Franciosa in the metropolis of Melfi in normally sleepy southern Italy. Franciosa's grandparents came from Melfi in 1890. Franciosa himself was born in poverty in New York's tough Harlem dis trict. But he found fame on the Broadway stage and world-wide acclaim in Holly wood, where last year he was nominated for an Academy Award. "Bravo, Antonio!" shouted Melfians, who live intimately with poverty and admire those who can rise above it. "Bravo, Melfi!" said Franciosa, who could have ignored his background, but chose to remember it. So the hero "returned." When in, Rome to star in the forthcoming film, "The Naked Maja," with Ava Gardner, Franciosa made a side trip to Melfi "to visit a few relatives." He found them, and a few more besides. The whole town turned out and, for a brief time, Melfi awoke from its eldest citizen to its youngest street urchin. It had some one to boast about.
