Brian Keith, Rhonda Fleming and Fernando Lamas discover a fortune In hidden gold in this scene from Para mount's brand new action-loaded romantic adventure, "Jivaro." which is due to open Thursday at the Park Theatre. Filmed in Technicolor, "Jivaro" is set in the midst of the wild and treacher ous Amazon Jungle, Technicolor Film 'Jivaro' Set In Amazon Jungles The wild and treacherous jungle of the Amazon country is the set ting for Paramount'? brand new Technicolor adventure drama, "Jiv aro," which is due to open next Thursday at the Park Theatre. An action-loaded film, it stars Fernan do Lamas and Khonda Fleming and co-stars Brian Keith. It con tains a cast of such leading play ers as Lon Chaney, Richard Den ning and Marvin Miller. Produced by William Pine and William Thomas, one of the most successful producing teams in Hol lywood history, "Jivaro'' was loos ed in part in the heart of the Amazon wilds. The results of this location work are reported to in clude some of the most eye-intrig uing jungle scenes ever put on film. But that alone is not what makes "Jivaro" such an unusual picture The fact of the matter is that this turbulent tale contains, in its exciting framework, a love story even more thrilling than the film's broiling action. Fernando Lamas, the screen's new romantic idol, is seen as a tough South American who oper ates a jungle trading post not far distant from" the Jivaro country. The Jivarus are a vicious tribe of head-hunting natives who resent the white man and who kill for the sheer joy of shrinking a head or two. Into the scene comes the love ly Rhonda Fleming, . wjw jMjriyjtt. from California to wed her fiance whom she has not seen in two 'years. Unwilling to disillusion the girl by disclosing that her boy friend is actually a drunkard obsessed | with the idea of discovering a for tune in gold in the Jivaro country, Lamas soon finds himself failing for her. Whin it is heard that her fiance is in the jungle and has been killed by the Indians, Lamas and Briant Keith, a woman chas ing adv'enturer, form a group to go into the wilds to search for him. Miss Fleming goes along and then the excitement begins?with head hunting Indians, wild beasts and the elements threatening them at every step. Advance movie audiences have waxed superlative in their raves of "Jivaro". It is being acclaimed as one of the top adventure tales of all time. With the glowing lints of the Technicolor cameras vividly de picting the wild jungle fauna, the romance between Lamas and Miss Fleming and the action-ftMed tale of the search for hidden gold through dangerous tropical terrain shapes "Jivaro"' up as a film well worth seeing ''Jivaro" was directed by Edward l.udwig and was writ ten for the screen by Winston Mil ten from a story by David Duncay. - " : ;?

These Women By CYNTHIA LOWRy AP Newsfeatures Wriier In case ybu're one of those ?hy, socially maladroit ones like me who koes through agonies about what to say after the hafatess had made introductions and gone her! merry way, I'd like to warn you about a current magazine article called "How to Start a Conversa tion". I use the word "warn" advised ly. because the piece suggested four possible conversation-starting gambits, and then gave specific ex amples of ?ach. And I have tried them. The article, warming up, explain ed that conversation, once started, rolls along prtrtty well under its own steam. And you should be able to launch a topric to roll. Then it gets specific. 1. Make a provocative state ment. says the .article, because it will force questions. The example it gave was: "There is a hurricane heading .this way." 2. Ask a leading question. It will force an answer. Example: "Did you see the parade today?" 3. Express an opinion. It will call for assent or dissent. Example: "People who watch television are dull" 4 Ask for advice on a specific problem. No one can resist. Ex ample: "Can you suggest a color for my room?" In addition to being shy and so cially maladroit, I am a neat, methodical person, and so I work ed my way through all four gam bits. following directions implicitly. The first gambit was played at a cocktail party tossed in a big, large ly glass office building. I arrived fairly late, and the party was humming comfortably. Failing to see anyone I knew, I waited until I had been supplied with requisite refreshment, and then approached a group of im portant-looking people. "Did you know." I inquired sweetly, "that a hurricane is head ing this way?" Well, the results, while not pro ductive of many questions, were positively amazing. In five min utes I was absolutely alone, not only in the room, but in the build ing When I got out on the street, I glimpsed one guest, glass still in hand, diving into a subway en trance. After that I bided my time and then found myself at a business luncheon, seated between and in front of people I had never met. They all seemed to know each oth er well and I felt sort of out of things until I asked my leading question. "Did you see the parade todav?" "Why. no." said the gentleman on my right, "what parade?" That reallv had m0 stumped for a moment. "Oh. any parade," I re turned. And from that moment I was the center of all attention, and when I left the luncheon. I bad a list of 15 names all psychi-' atrists. which my new friends had positively insisted I write down complete with telephone numbers! I Next time I expressed an opln jon: I think peoDle who watch television are dull." I said. sitting back waiting Evervbodv agreed en thusiastically and briefly, and went richl back to watching an old movie on a 21-inch screen I haven't worked out "Can you suggest a color for my room'" yet because nobodv has invited me to any parties And. if any body does. I nmrn.se to Stick to rnv pre article conversation roller "WHO is that woman over there In the weird hat"" It's never failed to get a conversation started about either women or hats. Maybe I should write an article. MAIL REMAINS UNSIGNED ON SENATOR HOEY'S DESK?Outgoing: mail lays unsigned on the desk of Senator Clyde Hoey (D-NC) as it was at the time of the Senator's death while napping in the chair at left, May 12. (AP Photo). 'Executive Suite' Offers Great All-Star Cast I What is probably the greatest all-star cast ever to have been as sembled for a single motion picture appears on the Strand screen Sun day, Monday and Tuesday, in M-G-M's absorbing "Executive Suite". The picture's pivotal . oles are enacted by William Holden, June Allyson, Barbara Stanwyck, Fred ric March, Walter Pidgeon, Shelley Winters, Paul Douglas and Louis Calhern, with Jean Dagger, Nina Foch and young Tim Considine heading the supporting cast. These are the artists who breathe life into the fascinating, contrast ing characters presented in Cam eron Hawley's best-seller novel of a big business dynasty and the men and women who become enmeshed in a dramatic web of intrigue and emotional conflict when the presi dent of a giant corporation dies without having named his succes sor. In the lives of the ten people closest to him, his sudden death brings out a parade of human emotions, including love and hate, loyalty, fear, sorrow, envy, hon esty and greed. There are five vice-presidents available for the executive suite of the Tredway Corporation, all with equal authority. McDonald Walling 'William Holden) is the young, sensitive and idealistic head of experiment and design. Loren Shaw (Fredric March), the com nany's comptroller, insists the heart of a business lies in its profit eraDh. Fred Aiderson 'Walter Pid eeon) is the treasurer an<\ senior officer In years. Josiah Dudley 'Paul Douelas) is the vice-presi dent in charge of sales. Jesse Grimm (Dean Jaeger) is the blunt manufacturing boss. F.ach has a different motive for wanting the oosition of power Fach uses a different approach in the schemes, intrigues, bargains and machinations by which he hopes to eain the ncrdssarv plural ity of votes. The methods run *he eamnt from anneals to frien^shii and lovaltv to coercion and black mall And ainn? -with the candi a-itee ace involved sncV* ofhc-? a? Wniijn?'s young wife Marv (June Allvson) whose marriaw? }s en dangered bv hen hl'skand's amhi Mon; the 'neurotic Julia Tredwav i Barbara Stanwyck), heiress of the company's founder; Ijjva Barde man (Shelley Winters), the secre tary to whom Dudley turns in the face of his wife's coldness; the con niving stockbroker George Caswell (Louis Calhern); and Erica Mar tin (Nina Foch), the secretary who knows more about the deceased president of the Tredway Corpora tion than all the others. Each of the stars in the impos ing cast of "Executive Suite" con tributes a striking performance, with the sum total affording a gal axy of dramatic taient unequalled in screen annals. This star power is matched in the incisive Ernest Lehman screen play, the dissecting direction of Robert Wise and the brilliant production on the part of John Houseman, who previously impressed with "The Bad and the Beautiful" and "Julius Caeser". Waynesville Man Made Corporal In Germany William K. Smith, whose wife, Delorse, lives in Waynesville, was recently promoted to corporal while serving with the 4th Indantry Di vision in Germany. The "Ivy" division is now receiv ing intensive field training as part of the U. S. Seventh Army. Corporal Smith, son of Mr. and Mrs. Troy Smith, is an ambulance driver in the division's 4th Medi cal Battalion. He entered the Army in September 1952 and arrived overseas last June. The Cromagnon race of prehis toric men had skulls and presum ably brains larger than those of modern men.
