Oddly, nobody In Hollywood seems to care about their pass- ins. Republic and RKO already have perished, leaving only six major lots MGM, 20th Century - Fox, Universal International, Warner Brothers, Paramount and Colum bia. AU six are producing TV films to keep the cameras roll ing. Independent producers have taken up some of the slack at the studios. At the recent Academy Author Splits With Husband PHENIX CITY, Ala. Wl - The author of the novel "Peyton Place," which hit the best seller lists and was made into a motion picture, has divorced her husband on grounds of voluntary abandon ment. Judge J. B. Hicks granted the divorce yesterday to Grace Meta lious, 33, in Russell County Circuit Court. Mrs. Metalious testified that her husband, George, 33, voluntarily abandoned her on Oct. 14, 1956. They were married in 1943. Meta lious was listed as a resident of Massachusetts. The judge barred remarriage except to each other for 60 days. No mention was made of property settlement, money or the three Metalious children, Marshal, 14, Christopher Michael, 10, and Cynthia, 7. Judy Garland, Mate Part HOLLYWOOD Ufi - Judy Gar land and Sid Luft have parted again, but the actress' lawyer says: sometimes it takes a tew days, sometimes maybe a little bit longer, but they always make up." Luft moved out of the couple's Holmby Hills house Tuesday. Judy telephoned attorney Jerry Giesler at a hospital where the noted movietown lawyer is .recuperating from surgery. "Judy gave me the impression she wanted to sue for divorce," Giesler told a newsman. "I can't got very excited about it." FULL CIRCLE ALLIANCE, Ohio OB Found in a book collection donated to the public library were two books missing since 1915. Librarians said the overdue fine would have been 76.65 but the books were never checked out, just taken from the lihrary shelves. Award nominations, the five pic tures named all were independ ent productions. Movie executives a d m i t TV Is the principal cause of Hollywood's plight, but they point to other fac tors which have changed us from a nation of steady movie-goers. Dull, unimaginative pictures share the blame with outdated. uncomfortable popcorn palaces. One bigwig says the movie down fall began in 1940 when the gov ernment forced divorcement of studios and theaters, ruling a company which made a picture could not own the theaters in which it was shown. Some blame the passing of the "star system," saying too few youngsters have been built to the heights occupied by the Gables, Garbos, Tracys and Harlows. Rising costs of movie - making add to the havoc, says the head of a major studio. "We can't keep turning out five and six million dollar pictures that dont return the cost, Twenty years ago a picture costing a million dollars was super-colossal. Today B pic tures can t be made for less. In 1936, the Klieg-lighted peak of film production, Hollywood turned out a total 621 epics with an additional 142 reissued all but a fraction of them produced by major studios. Last year, 378 pictures were made only 118 by the studios. Subtract from that 89 movies filmed abroad. The pinch is reflected in pink slips. Staffs have been hacked drastically. Unemployment offices are turning up sound men, ex tras, featured players, electri cians, grips and other movie spe cialists. Much as they point to vague reasons for their woes, movie makers can't duck responsibility for selling old films to television. And sell them they have a grand total of 3,144 pre-1948 films. The total does not include Co lumbia which refuses to divulge its TV sales. The big studios got something in the neighborhood of $150 mil lion tor the pictures. Heres a breakdown: U-I Leased 550 pictures to Screen Gems for $20 million on a seven-year lease. MGM Leased 725 pictures to individual TV stations for an ap proximate $40 million. Paramount Sold 725 pictures to Music Corp. of America for $35 million. Warners Sold 752 pictures to PRM Inc. for $21 million. 20th-Fox Sold 390 pictures to National Telefilm Assns. for $5 million, maintaining 40 per cent of the stock and 45 per cent of the gross income. Columbia No figures. Most of the pictures were made in the days when each studio pro duced 52 pictures a year enough to provide their theaters with a new bill every week. Many movie people believe the line between survival and demise of the major studios lies in the hefty backlog of films made since 1948.

"DENNIS THE MENACE" 'HOW AM I GONNA CUT THROUGH Scribe Reports Activity At Redstone By DWir.HT PITKIN DETROIT Ifl Business Is booming at Chrysler Corp.'s mis sile factory. I visited this big government- owned plant 16 miles north of De troit last November after the Rus- 20 years of age who wish im are given one month apart. The 12 months following the second for maximum protection. HXfc WO IF XWrWUPAFStt Missile Plant sians startled the world by putting up Sputnik I. Things were humming then, but in a quiet sort of way. The work ers went confidently and purpose fully about their tasks of producing Redstone ballistic missiles for the Army. I revisited the plant, still under secrecy wraps, after the Army put up our Explorer. I sensed a big difference. There are more workers. The operation is spreading from half-use of the plant and soon will take over all the 2,100,000 square feet of floor space. Everybody seems more re laxed ano happy and smiling. I also noted the stepped-up pro duction tempo. The clatter of hammers and power tools mingles with the hissing sound of high- pressure air tests 3,500 pounds per square inch. They're moving out equipment mane ohsolete by the space age Going into production is the Jupiter 1,500-mile-range missile big brother to the Redstone, with a range of 200 miles phis. The workers are jubilant over Jupiter. It means the present work force of some 5.500 soon will De increased to s.ooo. About a fourth of the employes are en gineers and most of the rest are highly skilled. The main reason for the hannv smiles is the feeling among the workers they had a part in the success of putting Explorer into orbit. A modified Redstone was Ihe first stage of the Jupiter-C that urea Explorer into orbit. The Jupiter-C satellite vehicle was assembled by the Army BaM ustic Missile Agency in Hunts- ville. Ala., but tome of the com ponents and know-how came from here. Chrysler was awarded a new 52-million-dolIar contract in Janu ary for production of Redstones and Jupiters. Missiles require precision work manship. They don't roll off as sembly lines. But, as near as they can, mass production techniques are being applied to turning out Redstones and parallel assembly areas are being set up to turn out Jupiters in the same manner.

Wl- The Navy has remedied a propel lant shortage that helped delay a test launching of the Vanguard satellite rocket. Other difficulties minor elec trical troubles and balky valves and other "plumbing" that also served to prevent a launching planned for early this week have not yet been eliminated. The Navy still hopes to, launch the Vanguard before the week end, and thus leave the way clear for the Army to attempt to send a second Explorer satellite in the nose of a Jupiter-C rocket into an orbit next week. The Vanguard rocket awaiting launcn day will carry a minia ture satellite sphere in its nose, although the main purpose will be to test the three Vanguard stages in flight. The Navy pro gram also provides for the pos- sibuity of establishing the 6.4-inch sphere in an orbit. The Navy's first major effort to launch a satellite a 20-inch sphere is ex pected in about a month. The propellant in short supply one of the seven propellants used in the three-stage Vanguard was propane. The gas Is used for the auxiliary jets that control the second stage of the Vanguard when it is coast ing, at a speed of 9,000 miles an hour, after its engine burns out 140 miles above the earth. A new supply was trucked in. How the shortage developed was not made clear. Japan, China Pact Reported TOKYO W-Advisers from Pei- ping said 12 Japanese industrial ists and Red China signed a five- ear trade agreement today under fhich 280 million dollars worth of Japanese steel materials will be bartered for Chinese iron ore and coal. Radio MIK and the Kyodo news service said the pact was sisned in Peiping by Yoshihiro Inayama, head of the private Japanese dele gation, and a representative of Red China's mining industry cor poration. NHK said each group is to ship 28 million dollars worth of ma terials to the other in the first year, 1958. Japanese -Chinese trade is based on such nongovern ment agreements in the absence of diplomatic relations between Ihe Tokyo and Peiping govern ments. Complete Selection!
