Movie Producer Jerry Wald Dies In Beverly Hills Beverly Hills, Calif. - CUPO -Producer Jerry Wald, who successfully gambled on a blend of art and sensation in a flamboyant 30 - year movie making career, died Friday night of his third heart attack In two days. He was 49. Wald died in bed at his home, where he had been con fined since being sent home ill Wednesday from the set of his latest movie, "A Woman in July." His wife, Constance, said she was Just about to give him a glass of orange juice to help him sleep when he was stricken. His son, Andrew, IS, also was present. Box Office Hits A boy from Brooklyn with uninhibited enthusiasm that lasted a lifetime, Wald con trasted box office hits such as the lusty "Peyton Place" with critically acclaimed "Johnny Belinda" and "Sons and Lovers." , "Johnny Belinda" gave Jane Wyman an Academy Award, while "Mildred Pierce" earned one for Joan Crawford. Wald - youngest man to win the coveted Irving Thalberg Award, in 1948 - had been ill from time to time more than a year. He underwent surgery several times. But he kept busy with plans for such projects as an adaptation of Alty. Gen. Robert Kennedy's ''The Enemy Within," confer ring with Kennedy on the book only two weeks ago. He also had In the mill an adapta tion of "Ulysses" by James Joyce. Countless Mamol Wald, who since 1957 head ed his own production com pany with a release agree ment with 20".h Century Fox studios, looked for movie ideas everywhere and kept a dictaphone handy to dictate countless memos. "Lots of my ideas come right out of the newspapers where I read the kind of items that show what people are thinking about," he once told a reporter. A developer of some major slar names, Wald has been credited with giving Marlon Brando his first screen test and starting him on the way to success. He also "discover ed" the late James Dean at a UCLA actor's school. In addition to his widow and son Andrew, Wald was survived by another son, Rob ert, IB. i r t " 7 r w , a ' .-w HIS MASTER'S VOICE Rusty, a young wire-haired terrier, listens to his owner, Miss Donna Hurley of Los Angeles, tell him she's on her way to pick him up at the Encinitas Animal Shelter.

Pearson has pro posed that Oregon's new con stitution give the legislature radical new powers to over rule the Stale Supreme Court In certain cases. The Const i tulonal Revision Commission defeated this 13-1. The Portland Democrat's suggestion so stunned the six commissioners who are judges or attorneys that they were speechless. Pearson, an lnsur- anccman, is one of the 17 com missioners. Under Pearson's proposal, Ilia legislature - by a two thirds vole in each house - could overturn lhe. supreme court on constitutional matters. Former Gov. Charles A. Sprague, Salem, said this would amount to hanging the constitution on a "rope of sand." Another commissioner, Rob ert W. Chandler, Bond pub lisher, said it would negate the historic system of checks and balances in government. Chandlrr added that in the past 900 yrars, more law has been made by Judges than by legislatures. confined to a one-floor wood frame building adjacent to the main building, caused about $25,000 damage.
