HOLLYWOOD (UP) - Movie-
land s economic crisis has pro
duced a new set of moguls -
many of them actors, directors
and other one-timo Uirills of the
studio kingpins.
ncpiacing tne old ordor are
small, mobile enterprises with
virtually no overhead costs ex
cept during actual production of a
picture. Academy Awards durinji
the past five years prove inde
pendent producers aro making
better movies than the remaining
- major siuuios.
Crowding onto the nation
screens are the escutcheons of
such companies as Batj.-ic I. John

Pearlberg - Scaton, Dena (Danny
nayci, uarryl zanuch, Yor

A division exists among Inde
pendents those who tie up with
the studios and others who want
nothing to do with the fallei
giants.
Jerry Wald ("Peyton Place")
an indie producer at 20th Cen

talent available to producers. In
dies arc like gypsies. They make
picture and told up. Working
with a major company is a solid
proposition.
Harold Hecht ("Marty"),
partner in Hecht Hill Lancast
er, takes tne otner point ol view.
"Major studios are being held to
gether by a business arrangement
with independent producers,
They've broken up into a network
of independent companies.
In addition to the independents,
TV is a big factor in keeping the
studios afloat. While TV clobbers
the movie boxoffice, it pours a
substantial flow of the long green
into the movie makers coffers.
Not only did video pay close to
$150 million for pre-l!)48 movies,
it continues to bolster the indus
try by purchasing TV shows
filmed at the studios. All the big
ones are accelerating TV produc-
lion.
Warner Brothers shoots four ton

"Cheyenne," "Sugarfoot." and
Colt .45." Plans call for fiv
more series in the fall.

Actress Eyes
Marriage Bid
HOLLYWOOD ( Actress Shar
on Lee today mulled a California
fruit grower offer to set up
$500,000 trust fund for her if she
will marry him.
"I need time to think," she said
yesterday at a news conference
called by her and Tony Vito in
his apartment to explain the sta
tus of their romance. Both con-
armed the offer.
Vito, 38. an ex-Marine from
Boston, said of his offer: "I'm not
trying to influence Sharon by this.
I merely want her to know that
if she marries me she won't have
tu support me."
The blonde Miss Lee. 27, said
when she recently divorced singer
uavia Mreet alter less than a
month of marriage that she helped
support him. Street and actress
Debra Paget have since married.
Vito lives in Hollywood when not
at Lodi, Calif., on business. Miss
Lee said they met at a Hollywood
party and have been dating since
fen. 12 But she has also been
going out with others.
Said Vito: "This town is full of
sharpshooters who want to know
what you can do for them but
Sharon is different. She won't
take anything.
'I gave her a mink stole and a
Cadillac and she made me take
them back. 1 had a birthday parly
all planned for 400 guests that
would have cost $5,000 or $10,000.
She canceled it. She thought it
would cost too much."
Said Sharon: "He's a wonderful
person, a fine person, but it all
happened too fast. We have never
been on a date without my man
ager or girl friend. I intend to see
him but I need time to think. Mar-
njriago must be built on love, not
lliuircy.

stayed on to get jobs and build
homes.
The population of Los Angeles
and its suburbs jumped from
1,970,358 in 1950 to an estimated
2.358.120 on Jan. 1, 1958.
