(UPI .Tclepholo) Part -Comanche Actress Uses Mate's Influence To Get Role as Redskin , Br JOE FINNIGAN I Hollywood -IWD- Carolyn Jones, a one quarter Indian, finally got a redskin role, but It took her husband's Influence to turn the trick. - Carolyrt, who doesn't look at all like an Indian, was handed the part in TV's "Zane Grey Theatre" by her husband Aaron Spelling, the show's producer. i "Aaron even wrote the Show, for me," she admitted. "I'm one fourth Comanche and have always wanted to play an Indian role. But, It's been hard for me to land one because my hair, which is dark now, is naturally blonde nd I have blue eyes.'' .Because Spelling did his wife a favor and gave her a job you'd think she'd be grate ful. But such was not the case, After she was hired, Spell ing faced a salary battle with Miss Jones, who can get a job without . hubby a help any. time. "Of course we argued over money when he didn't want to pay me what I asked," she said. "You can bet I finally got what I wanted." Having been defeated on the money Issue, Spelling ran the risk of wlfey's Ire every time he came on the set dur ing filming. "Occasionally he came on the set and once I almost threw him off," said Carolyn suspecting hubby's motives.. "He walked around, chomp ed on his pipe and had a wor ried look on his face,"- she complained. "Finally,, I said, 'what's the matter with you? Virus From Human Cancer One Step in Problem Solution 1 t New York - (Science Serv ice) - For the first time a virus found In human cancer has produced a new and char acteristic disease in laboratory animals. Researchers are one step closer to solution of the cancer problem with discov ery of i virus associated with human cancers. ' ; Dr. Helene W. Toolan of the Sloan Kettering Institute, New ' York, has announced that studies she began with Injections of hamsters two years ago have been continued and confirmed by associates. When inoculated Into new born hamsters the virus pro duces an unusual deformity characterized by small size, flattened foreface or micro cephalic domed head, pro truding eyes and tongue, ab sent or abnormal teeth and fragile bone structure. Not in Cancer Tlnut- ' The virus has been found In all eight of the transplant ed human cancers tested but not, so far, in the cancer tis sue Itself nor in the tissues of normal individuals. , , Dr. Toolan in an interview emphasized the fact that al though the virus has been found In association with hu man cancers it is not known yet whether or not it is a fac tor in the cause of cancer or has any connection with can cer development. , "By using hamsters," she said, "we have set up an In dicator system - a way of testing." i The virus has an affinity for bone. It produces unique deformities in hamsters when they are Inoculated within 4R hours after birth or when the embryos are Injected from one to seven days before birth. !-The virus injections have not been found to produce any Increase In cancer occurrence In the hamsters, a large num ber of which are now more than two years old. Infaciivlly Increased f Passage of the virus from newborn hamster to newborn hamster Increased the Infec- tivity of the agent, and the animals died at progressively earner stages. The virus has been found In the tissues of rats bearing May Brift, Davis Postpone Wedding Hollywood - WPP - Actress May Brltt and entertainer Sammy Davis Jr. have an nounced a postponement of their marriage plans. , They said the date for the wedding had been reset for Nov. 13. They originally were to be wed Oct. 16. ' A spokesman for the blonde Swedish actress and Davis said complications 'over her divorce from Edwin J a n i Cregson caused the delay. transplanted human , cancers but not ' in the tissues ' of normal rodents or In trans plantable cancers of rodents. It has not been found In hu man cancer cells from the same source growing In tissue culture In horse or calf sora. It has been found In tissue culture of spleen cells from Infected hamsters grown In human serum, and therefore It Is concluded by the investi gators that horse end calf sera may neutralize the virus. Research details appear in Proceeding.', of the National Academy of Sciences. Asso ciated with Dr. Toolan were Drs. .Gilbert Dalldorf, Marlon Barclay, Satlsh Chandra and Alice E. Moore, all of Sloan- Kettering Institute for Cancer Research, Get' off the set if you're going to look that way. Aaron said he was wor ried about another show, launghed at me and walked away. Even so, I know I make him nervous when I work, Both Agreed on Deiirai "I laugh and joke It up with the crew before a scene and this disturbs him. He feels I should be over In I corner getting into the mood I won't do that so he thinks I m going to bust out laugh ing in the middle of a scene. Despite the spoofing that goes on between the Spell. Ings, they're both agreed on what they want out of Holly wood. Having formed their own production company, they're hard at work turning out TV shows, and planning feature movies. "We haven't gotten Into the production of movies yet." Carolyn said. "I don't think either of us has enough acu men for that. We won't be ready to do a movie for two years." Carolyn, who' has acted In movies before, would let Aaron handle the production chores of their first Inde pendent film. ' ', Spelling has experience in production, having made 'Johnny , Rlngo" and being currently associated with nick Jowcll's ''Zane Grey." ; . Wants Something Intaratllng "I'd like for us to do some thing interesting," Carolyn added. "By that I don't mean we'd like to send out mes sages, . just . something ' that everybody else hasn t done. ! "Usually people with a new production company turn out something with drippy fau cets, lousy sets and cheap clothes. Movies were built out of beautiful scenery, costumes and sets. I don't want to go Into our first picture together on a shoestring and film it in the Hollywood hills," she added. l3 0 Small Worlds , Around Us By Lynn M. Watkins Do You Suppose The Raior Clam Loves Life?. The razor clam is easy to Identify, The tiny jet of water that squirts up from the sand marks the location of one of these mollusks as it quickly withdraws its siphon at your approach. This mollusk looks a great deal like the old-fashioned straight razor which was so much a part of the barber's trade of yesteryear.' The shell has the same slight curve, along with the sharp cutting edges. Even the colors - blue, green, yellow or mottled du plicates closely the colorful handles of the straight-edge razor,1' .' .... ? . . , - The old razor handle of course, was five or six inches in length, while the razor clam is seldom over three inches. Some, however, are known to reach twice this length, namely those that are used for human foods in some parts of Europe. 1 Burled In Sand ' When at rest, the razor clam lies quietly, burled ver tically In the sand. From this relatively safe place it pushes its long siphon up to .capture food. The clam is very active, almost agile, and is quick to retract the siphon at the first sign of danger. Even a pass ing shadow or a light vibra tion In the sand will cause it to withdraw its "neck." On many European beaches fishermen put a layer of salt over the clam-bed. When the siphons reach up to the sur face to disgorge the irritant the fisherman grabs the si phon and pulls out the clam, This siphon, or tongue as it Is often called, Is as handy to the clam as is a pocket in man s shirt. The siphon is capable of some peculiar actions. If the clam is dis lodged or pulled from its rest ing place, this long tongue be comes pointed, and is pressed into the sand at a slant.. . i As soon as the tip gets in position, the animal pumps water into it and a round ball forms at the tip end which anchors the clam firmly, at the same time pulling the mol lusk from sight. This process is repeated so rapidly that the animal can dig to a depth of two or three feet, faster than a man can dig with a shovel. Alio Swims . . The razor clam, however, does not have to' spend its time in a sand-flat. It can swim by snapping the two valves of. its shell together, traveling through the water in a series of jerks and jumps, resembling to some extent the erratic pace of the scallop. - Along the edge of the man tle, just visible between the two valves of its shell, are several small, round dots, which are the eyes., Even the shell of this bi-valve is different from most of the mollusks; there is always a gap at both ends. The shell is fitted together on one edge with small Interlocking teeth. Although it sounds rather silly, the razor clam Is said to be rather high in the mol lusk IQ rating, based prob ably on the fact that it is very alert and capable of deciding whether it wants to bury it self in the sand, or joyously swim through the green water when the sun is warm. At such times even the razor clam seems happy to be alive. Phoenix, Ariz. - Like most 1 0 - year - old boys, Richard .Johnson is mighty fond of his dog. . -, Richard was on a high fly ing swing when his pooch Toby came dangerously close. Rather than hit Toby, the boy jumped out of the swing in an effort to slow its motion. Richard broke his arm in the fall. We Give ,..' and .
