PAGE 2 A HERALD AND NEWS, Klamath Falls. Ore. Thursday," July 30, 1959 Is The Double Feature Still A Popular Thing? By BOB THOMAS AP Movle-TV Writer HOLLYWOOD (AP)-The time has come for the movie industry to do some thinking about the dou ble feature. Does the public still want it? Can the film business still af ford it? The twin bill has been wilh us since the Depression days, when theaters tried to cure lagging business by giving the public dou ble its money's worth. Double leatures haxe long been attacked by producers, especially Samuel Goldwyn. but they contin ued to be the mode of film presen tation. Why? Because theater men thought movie-goers liked it that way. But times have changed. As a straw in the wind. Variety tells of two single - feature houses on Long Island, N. V., that generally onldraw the double-feature thea ters in the area. GORDON SC0T1 -ANtHONY OUAUl sJtRA SHANE NFALl MACGINNIS SCANCONNERY-SCIILA CABL Plus "THE MAN WHO , COULD CHEAT DEATH" t NOW! .

If you, the movie goer, can be convinced that .he double feature is no bargain. ihe theater men will come around Kor they are faced with three con dilions that make the single bill more urgent. 1. Movies are longer than ever The 80-minute leature is almost obsolete. A Iwo-hnur minimum is standard for an important film these days. Three-hour epics are not uncommon. There's nothing wrong with long pictures. But two longies in a row are hard to take for even the most rabid of fans. 2 Movies are fewer than ever. Hollywood is making less than hall the number of features that it used to. In their desperation to make up double bills, many exhibitors have taken to combining a new picture with an oldie. People can get enough old movies on TV. 3. Movies are costlier than ever. The industry can claim that the ater admissions haven't risen as much as other consumer prices. But people still resent paying pre mium fees for what was once in expensive entertainment. Single lealures could help cut costs. Gl To Get Help From Rockets ABERDEEN, Md. (AP) - A rocket designed to give a foot soldier some defense against a strafing plane is being developed, according to the Army's weapons research staff. Lt. Gen. Arthur G. Trudeau told about the rocket at a news conference at the Army Proving Ground Wednesday. The "Red Eye" uses the same principle as the "Sidewinder," an air-to-air missile which is at tracted to the heat of an engine. The ground-to-air weapon is fired by hand from a bazooka like launcher and is effective up to one mile, Gen. Trudeau said Com tail lit!

I Nixon Gets To See Heavy Red Industry SVERDLOVSK, Soviet Union 'API Vice President' Richard M. Nixon took a long look today at heavy industry in Siberia, vis iting a huge tube rolling mill and a copper mine near this city of 600,000 on the east slopes of the Jral Mountains. High spots ol the nearly 11-hour schedule were tours through the Pervouralsk mill and Ihe Degty- arsk mine. Nixon also took a long drive through the area surround ing Sverdlovsk, a center for the production of strategic metals, armaments, chemicals and heavy machinery. Despite the hecklers who dogged his footsteps Wednesday in Novo sibirsk and again in Sverdlovsk, Nixon said his welcome in the So viet Union has been warmer than Allies To Ask Delay In Meeting GENEVA (AP) - The Western Allies planned today to ask the Soviet Union to agree to a long recess beginning next Wednesday in the Big Four foreign minis ters' conference. The Allies ob viously hoped that an agreement to renew negotiations would sus pend the Soviet threat to West Berlin. There was no indication Soviet Forei&.i Minister Andrei Gromy ko would agree to a recess. There was no expectation on the Western side that Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev's speech in the Ukraine, made public today, promised any change in the So viet position that might make it worthwhile to continue 1 negotia tions now. ' Although Khrushchev called for renewed efforts by the foreign ministers and said the Geneva conference had made progress, he oflered no modification of the So viet demands which the West has rejected. British Foreign Secretary Scl- wyn Lloyd reportedly would like to persuade his Western Allies to agree to a summit conference to follow up the present Big Four meeting. But there presently is no prospect the United States and France will agree that sufficient progress has been , achieved here to justify going to the summit. Barring a sudden turnabout by the U.S.S.R. on some crucial is sue in the Berlin negotiations, most Western diplomats now be lieve the foreign ministers meet ing will break up in failure with out agreement on either Berlin or a summit gathering. The Wednesday deadline was set on the initiative of Secretary of State Christian A. Hertcr, who said he is going to attend the meeting of the Organization of American States opening in San tiago, Chile, Aug. 19 and wants a few days in Washington to pre pare for that conference. Lloyd and French Foreign Minister Mau rice Couve de Murville agreed to his proposal. Following a long luncheon meet ing between Herter and Gromyko, Assistant Secretary of State An drew H. Berding announced that "Mr. Gromyko and Mr. Herter agreed that we would wind up by Wednesday of next week." However, a Soviet spokesman said that Herler's departure left Gromyko no choice but to go home himself. It appeared the Soviets were putting themselves in posi lion to put full blame for a break off on the U.S. secretary It that suited their propaganda purposes.

Nixon canceled a dinner in his honor Wednesday night to work on a speech he will give from Moscow Saturday night over the Soviet radio and television net work. In it he will urge that Si beria be opened up to more for eign visitors and to more ideas from outside. Nixon told hecklers here in Sver dlovsk that Western radio broad casts to them are being jammed and that they do not know the truth. The Soviets ought to have the right to hear both sides, he said, urging them to listen to his broadcast. The hecklers' themes in both Novosibirsk and Sverdlovsk were markedly similar, and Nixon's press aide, Herbert G. Klein, hint ed the Soviet government had primed agents with hostile ques tions. The hecklers usually asked why Ihe United Slates maintained bas es around the Soviet Union and why the United States wouldn't ban nuclear weapon tests at once. In a discussion outside a steel mill here Nixon told plant super intendent Nicolai Stravtsev: "You don't know the truth. You are jam ming Western radio broadcasts." "What you present," Stravtsev countered, "is not ideas but dirty slanders." Nixon told him he could "stick to your own ideas, but you ought lo have the right to choose what you hear and read." "Why must you let somebody else tell ' you what you must hear?" Nixon asked Stravtsev.'" "I am surprised that a bright man like you should stick to such an outmoded system," the Russian answered. . Dr. Milton S. Eisenhower, broth er of President Eisenhower, and Vice Adm. Hyman G. Rickover, the atomic submarine expert, helped Nixon answer the hecklers. "What about your rocket bases?" asked one young man. "What about your rocket shot back the peppery little ad miral. He continued through his translator: "Are you a iCommu nist?" "No, just a candidate (for par ty membership )l" the man an swered, i v ' , k "All the same thing," the ad miral snapped. "I don't want to talk to Communists. I want to talk to the people." Planes Carry Atom Bombs HOMESTEAD, Fla. (AP) -Atomic bombs are stored at Homestead Air Force Base and jet bombers carry them over south Florida on practice mis sions, the Air Force has disclosed. "We're not just sitting here," said Maj. Carl Harris, Homestead disaster control officer. "We have a job to do, and our aircralt are flying around wilh them (atomic bombs).". He made the statement Wednes day during a meeting of Air Force and Dade County (Miami) police and fire officials called to set up plans in case of emergency. The possibility of dropping a bomb accidentally on south Flor ida is remole, Harris said. If it did happen, there would be no nu clear explosion. WEEK-END SPECIALS FRI. . SAT. MON. r GUARANTEED !

There were no injuries to pas sengers or crew aboard the out bound 83,000-tone Queen and the in bound 10,460-ton American Hunter. The ships came together about 3:30 p.m. Wednesday near the en trance to Ambrose Channel about I'-i miles off Coney Island. Both vessels were damaged above the water line. At the helm of each were trained harbor pilots. The mishap in the freakish fog no visibility in some areas and good visibility in others led to the harbor . being shut down for 24 hours. Repair crews went to work on the three-foot hole in the star board bow of the liner immediate ly after dusk, when tugs brought her back to Pier 90 where she had lifted anchor just six hours earlier. The impact was felt only as a dull thud aboard the Elizabeth. Few of the ship's 1,9) passengers knew what had happened. The American Hunter, just ar rived from the Elizabeth's home port of Southampton, carried a crew of 50 plus 6 passengers. The freighter suffered a two-foot crack in her bow. The Hunter is owned by the United States Lines. E.

The Queen was sounding her fog horn steadily. Bell said, when "the other ship suddenly appeared out of the fog on the starboard bow." He said the Queen's engines, ihrown full speed astern, brought her to a dead stop before the col lision. "The American Hunter Was at right angles to the Queen Eliza beth at the time, and was not go ing very fast," Bell said. Lewis Funke, New York Times drama editor aboard the Eliz abeth, wrote in a dispatch from the vessel that the blow "caused this mammoth vessel to quiver, but not a glass stirred on the din ing salon tables." When the Elizabeth returned to her North River berth, a crowd of about 2,000 were at the pier. All passengers elected to remain aboard the Elizabeth except Two. Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Anderson left the ship around midnight saying that the collision had ruined their schedule and they would seek oth er means of transportation to Eu rope. The Elizabeth s passenger list included Floyd Odium, financier; Gen. James A.
