Older than most of the new stars he admits to 30 but probably has passed 35 Vince credits much of his vitality to organic foods and weight lifting. He learned his profession at the American Academy in New York and through minor roles on the stage and in the movies where he usually portrayed gangsters. The popularity of Vince and another tv doctor, Richard Chamberlain (see below), rated them a feature in family WEEKLY June 24. GEORGE MAHARIS Born of Greek parents in a tough section of New York 32 years ago, George Maharis learned early in life how to take care of himself. He quit school to join the Marines but later returned to get his high-school diploma. He shunned a secure future with a big mail-order company to take an un certain job as a singer in a small night club. His first break came when he re ceived a part in Wally Cox's "Mr. Peep ers" show. This eventually led to a star ring role in the "Route 66" series. In his spare time, George boxes and enjoys paint ing in oils. MALE STARS to a smoldering nonconformist w GEORGE CHAKIRIS In his first film role as the Puerto Rican gang leader in "West Side Story," 28-year-old George Chakiris walked off with a coveted Oscar as best supporting actor. Ironically, Hollywood had shunned him three years earlier, and he turned to New York and the stage. Two weeks after his arrival there, he was picked for the Lon don company of "West Side Story." George, who, like Maharis, is of Greek extraction, still lives with his family and keeps a close watch on his budget. Presently starring in "Diamond Head" with Charl ton Heston, he soon will leave for the Far East to make a film with Yul Brynner. WARREN BEATTY Smolderingly handsome Warren Beatty exploded into stardom like a rocket headed for space. A hit in his first Broadway play, "Loss of Roses," he jetted right into a co starring role opposite Natalie Wood in his first movie, "Splendor in the Grass." From there, he went to other starring roles. Like Horst Buchholz, Warren has often been compared to the late James Dean because of his independent manner. Yet Beatty is unique sleepy, vibrant, hostile, noncon forming, moody, and intelligent. Warren comes from a theatrical family. His grand mother was an elocution teacher, his mother an actress, and his sister is none other than Shirley MacLaine. HORST BUCHHOLZ Dynamic, intense Horst Buchholz wouldn't change his name to fit either the public's tongue or theater marquees and his fight for individuality has paid off in box-office popularity. Horst was born 29 years ago in Berlin. During World War II, his home was bombed, and he was evacu ated to a children's camp. He ultimately walked all the way home from Czecho slovakia, living on begged and stolen food. To help support his family, he turned to the theater at 16 and made his American debut in "The Magnificent Seven." Of the young actors featured here, Horst is the only one married. MAXIMILIAN SCHELL Hollywood was agog when a "new star," Maximilian Schell, won the best-actor Oscar for his role in "Judgment at Nur emberg." But the 31-year-old native of Vienna is not really a newcomer. In Europe he already has considerable pres tige. Now he is building an equally solid reputation in the U.S. as witness his latest performances in "Five Finger Ex ercise" and "The Reluctant Saint." Max was born into a theatrical family. His mother directs a drama school, his father is a playwright, and his sister is the tal ented actress Maria Schell. RICHARD BEYMER A native of Iowa, 23-year-old Richard Beymer moved to Hollywood when he was 10 and almost immediately took advan tage of the fact. He soon had the juvenile lead on a children's television show; and by the time he was 14 he had made his first movie. Since then, Richard has progressed steadily to a point where he has become Hollywood's busiest young actor. His cred its during the last 12 months include leads in "West Side Story," "Five Finger Ex ercise," "Bachelor Flat," and "Adventures of a Young Man." He enjoys privacy and lives simply and quietly, seriously paint ing during free hours. RICHARD CHAMBERLAIN Cursed with looks that belie his strength and masculinity and frankly a novice in the acting profession, Dick Chamberlain beat the odds by developing into an actor who can hold his own even with veteran Raymond Massey and the guest stars on tv's popular "Dr. Kildare" series. People tend to like 27-year-old Dick instantly be cause of his friendly grin and his inherent shyness (which kept him from admitting he had seriously studied opera until after he was firmly established in his "medical" role). Dick likes people and loves premieres and parties. But there's nothing namby pamby about this six-foot, 175-pound bach elor. He has a mind of his own and uses it.
