OREGON Video Interview Series Begins Sixth Year On Air ty CHARLES MERGER ' NEW YORK (AP)--W ofter onder how you get on 'Persor to Person,' " said Jesse Zousmer, coproducer of the show. "And we still don't know ho you get on this show," said co producer John A. Aaron. "Person to Person." which peo ple are interviewed in their hornet by Edward R. Murrow, returns to the home screen Friday evening over CBS-TV. The guests will be comedian Jerry Lewis in his California home and Cmdr. William R. And erson, who will be interviewed aboard the atomic submarine Nautilus in Groton, Conn. Although Aaron and Zousmer like to play it somewhat vague on how they select their guests, they are not at all vague about one thing. In unison they say as "Per son to Person" begins its sixth year: "It will always stay live. If the program ever went to film, it would lose all its spontaneity and die." A fellow chatting with them said that one reason he enjoyed watch ing the show is the perpetual anticipation, seldom realized, that something might go hilariously wrong. Aaron and Zousmer, who are as protective of their guests sensibilities as mother hens, fell silent. The fellow recalled the guest who started to take the TV audi ence through his home via "Per ion to Person" live cameras and walked straight into a closet.

"DENNIS THE MENACE" Actor Hopes For Success After 14 Years Absence broke and the time Bob Hope's lands shook with nervousness and .he time "That's what we mean by the ipontancity of live television," aron said. "If such things hap pened in filming we d feel ethical iy hound to re-make shots." The public knows the defer ence, Zousmer added. If we went to film people would quickly teel the show was rehearsed and phony." Although there are no re hearsals," Aaron and Zousmer often exert directorial powers to help the people Murrow inter views. They have made men guests change their ties and or dered women guests to change from expensive dinner dresses into something less conspicuous. Except in the case of as renowned drinker as Toots Shor, they never permit the cameras to show a bar in a home the program visits. It's also true that they have pursued some reluctant people for years in order to bring them to Person to Person. For example. Marilyn Monroe, the Duke and Duchess of Windsor, Sophia Lo- ren, Vivien Leigh have made their only live TV appearances on the program. Sir Winston Churchill is the only person they would consent to film and they'd probably row a boat to bngland to do it. They believe that the most ner vous guests on the program are comedians. Their theory: Corned ians can't make up their minds whether to be themselves or try to act like comedians. The calmest guests are athletes Murrow's theory, to which they subscribe: "Athletes are used to taking instructions. And as Yogi Berra put it: 'There's nothing to it. What the heck, nobody's charg ing you with spikes out." " Retired Teachers Hold Session The Retired Teachers Associa tion met at the home of Mrs. Lor ena Ward, 3930 Bristol Avenue, re-: cently with 20 members and guests present. During the business meeting, the president of the local group of III A gave a report of the re cent state executive board meet ing at Roseburg which she and the vice president, Elsie Burton, attended. National Retired Teach on Association insurance was also discussed. A social time concluded the aft ernoon. Not only are retired teach ers invited to attend, but those who have taught school at any tune are welcome.

Famous Whodunit Novelist Dies In Sleep At Age 82. NEW YORK (UPD-Mary Rob erts Rinehart, 82, who averaged writing a mystery novel a year for 40 years, died Monday night in her sleep. Mrs. Rinehart was a wealthy woman from the time she pub lished her first book, "The Circu lar Staircase." That novel alone was believed to have earned her up to nine million dollars in stage, screen and television sales. It was dramatized under the title of 'The Bat." Mrs. Rinehart was a prolific writer of not only mysteries but books with a medical theme. Her interest in that subject may be traced to the fact she married Stanley M. Rinehart, a doctor. after training as a nurse herself. During World War I Mrs. Rine hart served as a correspondent. She interviewed Queen Mary of Great Britain and King Albert and Queen Elizabeth of Belgium. Mrs. Rinehart once described writing as "the hardest work in the world" but she continued to turn out her novels as late as her 76th year, when she published "The Swimming Pool," a mystery set in Bar Harbor, Maine, where she had a home. Even before publication of that book, it was estimated her novels had sold more than 10 million copies in 13 languages. Most of the novels were serialized in mag azines and many were made into movies and television productions. Mrs. Rinehart, who died in her Park Ave. apartment, was born into a modest Pittsburgh family in 1876. She is survived by three sons and six grandchildren. Her husband died in 1932. By BOB THOMAS AP Motion Picture Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP) i Consider the strange case of Alan Marshal. Fifteen years ago, he was rid ing the crest of popularity. A handsome leading man in films like "Lydia" and "Tom. Dick and Harry," he seemed to have every thing he needed success in his profession, fame, etc. He played opposite Irene Dunne in the immensely popular "White Cliffs 'of Dover," followed it with comedy, "Bride by Mistake, with Laraine Day. Then disap peared from sight Fourteen years later, he is mak ing another movie, The House on Haunted Hill." What happened in between? He gave some explanation dur ing a lunch break as he was fin ishing the movie at Allied Artists. The suave mustache was gone, but he seemed as deuctdly hand some as when he was playing op posite the screen s loveliest ladies. 'I underwent a kind of mental turmoil," he explained. "There was a long period when I didn't appear to be able to make up my mind. Producers would send me scripts and I'd read them. But I couldn't tell them whether I would or would not do the pic tures. Gradually they stopped sending me scripts." He didn t elaborate on the na ture of his, turmoil, but said with an English reserve that he didn't think the public would be inter ested. He did say that he did not consult a psychiatrist, but felt he could cure his problem by him self. After a number of years, he felt that he had made the cure. "But then it was too late," he remarked. "The picture business had passed me by. The producers seemed to have forgotten me." Unable to find work in films, he went east and got a few roles in TV dramas. He toured briefly in a play, then returned to Hol lywood. In recent months, his career has brightened. He made a good impression., in a Perry Mason film, then did a G.E. Theater and a couple of Western TV segments. "The House on Haunted Hill" de veloped and there are other roles in the offing ior him. "I am pretty hopeful," Marshal commented, "though they don't seem to be making the kind of picture I used to do. Everything seems to be Westerns and hor ror pictures and juvenile delin quency. I was always pretty much typed as an Englishman. "Actually, though I was born In Australia, I have lived here since I was 5 and went to school in New York. But I started playing the classics at an early age and I hfld onto an English accent be cause I liked it." w N Given Awoy October 15th Get Your Free Tickets at Any SIGNAL STATION No obligation, no nttd to be prtunt to win! .

Film Star To Offer Advice On NBC Radio's 'Monitor' By CHARLES MERCER NEW YORK (AP) Marlcne Dietrich, a woman of philosophi cal mind whom men seldom view philosophically, will launch a weekend radio program Oct. 4 in which she answers listeners in quiries on life, love and the pur suit of happiness. Her throaty voice will bo heard in a series of four minute time spots on NRC Radio's "Monitor." "I'll answer the questions I know something about," she said the other day, "and only serious questions. I can summarize every- IJJ.III I.IJX P" ASTAIRE w in HIGH S0CltTY MIURITy! Wl?"

Miss Dietrich, who is as beauti ful as ever, said that she already has received more than 500 letters from people ranging from teen agers to octogenarians in response to an NBC announcement of her program. A great many are from people who say they are lonely. "All people arc often lonely," she said. "I'm often lonely. What really is so bad about that? In this country too many neo- ple try to crawl from the ages- old fact that life is hard. They are not to blame because they were brought up to believe that life should be a bed of roses. "But in Kurope people are brought up with Ihe idea that life hard and so they re better equipped to take it when they face it. 'Many people write and sav that something must be wrong with them because they get de pressed. I wish they could under stand that stupid, cold people are the only ones who never are de-i pressed. I am often depressed. All ensitive people often are, and only the sensitive learn the deeper and more valuable things of life. I nope to tell them that de pression is a part of life. And you should not try to push life from you." She thrust her hands out quickly and drolly mimicked a neurone woman "You should not have that frantic 'I've got to do something about if attitude, that need to do something or have a drink to escape from where you are. She smiled suddenly. "We come back, don't we, to the three words? 'Do your duty' and stop worrying about how you feel." As a mother and a grandmother, Miss Dietrich is interested in the dilemma 01 Dewiidercd young mothers who read books offering advice contrary to what they learned from Iheir own mothers. "They have nobody to talk to," she said. "And that is true of many, many people: They lack someone to talk to. I hope that I can communicate with them." It seems certain that she will. Hunters Error; Lose Weapons Two California deer hunters who said they inadvertently wandered across the border into Oregon were fined $250 each Monday for hunting deer out of season. The hunters, Aubrey E. Everett ol San Bruno and Ernest L. Waite of Redwood City, said they were lollowing a hand-drawn map and didn't realize they were in Ore gon. They were arrested by Bill itusn, game oincer, on Haymaker Mountain three miles north of the California line. District Judge D. EL Van Vac tor reminded Ihe hunters it was their responsibility to know where they were hunting. California's deer season now is open, but Ore gon it not. I Judge Van Vaclor also ordered I the hunters' guns confiscated. Don't let lack of business skills hold you back! LEARN Day and Half Day Clatiti, Fhra Dayi a Wttk.
