How did this revolution happen? Let the stars themselves ex plain. Some modestly deny they are the new rulers of Hollywood. But all admit the power of box office favorites has grown im measurably in the past decade. Frank Sinatra: I saw this trend coming five years ago.

His etchings, according to num erous critics, show an intimate knowledge of nature's forms and moods. But he is not. they say, a mere copyist of nature. His work reflects a strong individual view point and interpretation which has interest above mat ot mere scenic attraction. Stagecoach Still Late LOS ANGELES (AP) The But tcrfield overland mail pulled into town from Missouri and points west Tuesday. It was late, just as it was loo years ago. but the reasons weren't the same. Indians and badmen slowed down the mail back 1858. but this run. which started at Tipton, Mo., 21 days ago. was held up by speeches and curiosity seekers, eager to see the replica of the first Butterfield stage. The stage brought 200.000 pieces of mail to the post office. Accom panying it were Highway Post Of fice No. 1, a ' covered wagon, a mobile blacksmith shop and mu seum and several floats provided by historical societies. The whole works was transported on trucks and trailers. The, caravan leaes today for its western terminfcs, San Fran cisco.' It arrives rriday.

Teen-Agers Aid Backs SAM FRANCISCO (AP) When a teen-ager slouches into a room and collapses into a chair like a big hunk of liver he is doing some thing good for his back, a bone specialist said today. The slump, when it results in a forward curvature of the lower hackbone, causes a distribution of weight burden and lessens the pressure on the discs between the vertebrae, said Dr. Loren L. Stephens of Arcadia, Calif. Bad for the back, Dr. Stephens told the Calilornia Academy of General Practice, is the ramrod straight sitting position, In which ihe lower part ot the spine is made to how rearward. This Dr. Steph ens called the West Point position. He termed it a malignant posture, meaning that it tended to lead from bad to worse. Crossing the loss at the knees can be beneficial for the spine. Dr. Stephens said, because it tends to produce the restful for ward curving ot the bottom end of the backbone. sled as such, but would offer their acilities in partnership with the ictnrs and creators of film prop- rties." Sinatra, dropped from his MGM contract as a singer on the skids six vears ago, is now back at the studio as partner in "Some Came Running" and two more films, James Stewart: "After the glamor and glitter is stripped away, you've got to realize that movies are pretty much like any other business. We exist on supply and demand too. The demand now is for solid, reliable performers who can get people out of their homes and into the theaters. "People don t have the movie habit any more. They won't go to ihe theater unless they're pretty sure of getting their money s worth. When they know that Duke Wayne or Gary Cooper is In the picture., they can judge from past performance that it ought to be Drettv Eood. Cary Grant: "we ve gotten to De ike a well-atlvertised brand of tea. Housewives buy that brand of tea rather than take a chance on a brand they're not familiar with. "The moviegoer is the same way. He 11 see one ot our pictures because he knows he's pretty sure of getting a certain quality, while he might not take a chance on a new fellow across the street." Why are there only a dozen stars who fit this category? William Holden: The studios are to blame for that. Right after the war, there were 750 to 800 actors under exclusive contract to the studios. Today there are 175. and virtually none of them are bie names. "As soon as the picture business started getting tough, the studios dropped the actors. The produc ers argued why should they pay an actor $2,500 or $5,000 a week when they can let him go and hire him back at $100,000 per picture. Of the golden dozen stars, all but Marlon Brando were under studio contracts at one time. But now they are free agents and get as much as $750,000 in salary and perhaps half the profits. What happened to the pioneers who built the movie industry and once held complete power over it? Holden: "There is no second ccneration in the picture business The Mayers and the Cohns and the Warners and the rest of them created the industry and ruled it with iron hands. But then they got older and lost some of their drive. "The pioneers are dying off, and they left no one to take their places. So the top - drawer names as cended to power. Television was their unwitting aid. The flood of free home entertainment knocked out the B picture. Unable to sus lain high overheads, the major studios became hives of independ put producers. The banks insisted that the in dees sicn ton stars before loans would he given for pictures. Hence the prices for such stars got high er and higher. The deals are gelling richer and the stars are getting more powerlul by the day. Next: How the top twelve stars operate. i- ) ) , , 47 t At' V) J 1 J C V3 Lit X r.li. tU4s. Vjwu-sSs.
