Palmer, who clashed with his

endanged by a 285-foot high
hill near the runway and that
the flew directly over seven'
schools.

Cooper Visits Russia
Unrecognized;. Says
Reds Need U.S. Movies
By VERNON SCOTT
UFI Hollywood Correspondent
Hollywood (UPD - Gary Coop
er exchanged his "yep" and
"nope", with "da" and "nyet"
for six days in Russia where
he saw everything except a
Soviet movie.
As a combination tourist
movie exchange celebrity, the
long-legged star checked in at
the theater, ballet and opera,
rode the subways, lived it up
in restaurants and went com
pletely unrecognized.
"The Russiansjiaven't seen
an American movie in 25
years," Coop grinned. "They
wouldn't recognize any Holly
wood actors. 1
"A few of the officials and
big shots in the theatrical
world remembered me but
that was about it. From my
personal observation, I'd say
the best thing that could hap
pen in Russia is the showing
of American movies." '
Film Draws Raves
'' Cooper was on hand for the
first showing of "Marty"-the
1955 Oscar winner-which re
ceived rave reviews from Mos
cow critics.
"Dubbing the Russian lan
guage into the film was ter
rific," Cooper acknowledged,
'but it was amazing to listen
to Ernest. Borgnine spouting
Russian." : , . ' '
The big guy expressed pity
for the Russians. .
"Everyone is sort of grim
over there," he said. "You
don't see much smiling going
on. Maybe it's because they
haven't had much to smile
about in the past 40 years.
They work plenty hard, and I
guess that's about all they
have to do with themselves.
"For some reason I got the
feeling that the people must
know what is going on in the
outside world. But that's im
possible. The only news they
get is what the bigwigs want
them to know."
Impressed With Studio
"I was impressed with the
size of the studio I saw in Mos-

Scarborough, England-IUPD-David
Jenkins got into his car
Thursday and listened polite
ly while the woman in the
back seat bawled him out for
being late.
When she stopped for
breath, the woman realized
that she was in the wrong
car. She had mistaken Jen
kins' auto for her husband's.

of the equipment is American
made, including the cameras.
I saw a test film of their new
70-millimeter film process.
Pretty good. Looks a lot like
our Todd-AO gimmick.
"I'm still sorting out my
feelings about the trip. Russia
is rebuilding from the war.
Their housing projects look
good, but I don't know if
they'll ever catch up with the
shortage.
"The politicians m a y be
thinking about war, but the
people all talk about peace.
Actually, I feel sorry for the
Russians. They seem to know
there are better places in the
world, but they don't know
what to do about it."
