Houston Lists Arts Festival Schedule SPrCIAl. TO THE EXPRESS-NEWS 'HOUSTON A comprehensive and colorful calendar of cultural events for Hie 18GS Ilousion Arts t'cslival during the month of October has ten announced. Approximately 13S separate events have been scheduled hy Houston's artistic and a organizations, ranging all the a from symphony and grand opera to lectures and a display of the world's first five- Soul grand piunu. The Arts Festival, a project of the Civic Affairs Committee of tile Houston Chamber of Commerce, will be highlighted by a scintillating week of opening festivities at Ihc new Jones Hall for the Performing Arts. Jones Hall, a magnificent $6.5 million theatre for the performing arts, was turned over to the City of Houston by Houston Endowment.

last Sunday. Later during the month, IJie new hall will house such events as "Hello, Dolly," Houston "Hallet Folkloricp," a Gilbert i a Society presentation nf "An Evening i Martyn Green," and a Chi Omega Chautauqua presentation of "The Music of Richard Eod- gers." Is on 1'agc 8-H All major stages in Houston will be offering outstanding and prominent stars; virtually every little theatre group will be participating. Civic and commercial art galleries and museums will offer a range of exhibitions. Special radio and television programs have planned. Colleges, universities a churches, all have announced plans to be a part of the community-wide project.

Conceived and coordinated by the CofC Civic Affairs Committee, Hie Houston Arts Festival provides a showcase for the various artistic and cul- lural organizations to demonstrate Uie quality and quantity of their contributions lo city's cultural environment.

Kenncr. By DARRYL XANUCK President of 201h Century-Fox Film Corp. Roadshows have put motion back in motion pictures. For too many people, Die definition of thus maneuverable word, Roadshow, stops with "reserved scats at fancy prices." But lo me, Roadshow means moving the motion picture industry back into high gear, leading Die entertainment field once more by making films which could never have been born without this new production concept. It changes budgeting, financing, (and in turn) new availability of latent, ideas, technical and engineering feats a whole new horizon of production possibilities.

Today, with the opportunity afforded by advance-sale promotion of a prestige product with an inbred guaranteed income, i.e. Roadshow-presenta- tion, we can take the necessary risks to bring up production dimensions a a means tackling properties that could never fit the old budgets, means commissioning new technical and creative processes (t a benefit all film producers) and spending more time on deserving projects. "The Sound of Hfusic," in release for well over a year, is still running in all major openings (including Cinema 11 in San Antonio). As reports from several key engagements began to come in, the company agreed to develop a special "Certificate of Merit" for the theatres where Ihc number of admissions sold exceeded the population of Ihe respective city. We ran off 25 certificates and have just ordered our second printing.

Now, let's face it. In spite of its admirable original ingredients, our release of "The Sound of Music" is more than a film version of a Broadway show. Director and producer Robert Wise got if off the stage, out of the studio, into the Austrian Alps. It has size, it now has a plot with tody; more depth a sentimentality; the music literally sails out of the cast in a way that has been infectious to every country which has seen it. It is a result of our nouvelle vague Roadshow 'flunking and Planning.

The success of "The Blue Max" (now at the Laurel) is no accident. We commissioned a whole command of World War I planes and had stunt pilots flying them. There was not one model or special effect used in the picture. Our star, George Pep- DARRYL F. ZANUCK 'The Bible' is his latest release.

pard, learned to fly and did all of his own sequences. Our production team on ground used to count in the craft at the end of a day's shooting with as much apprehension as the old hangar crews counting them in from the Fokkcr dog fighls. This kind of reality which the public now demands is a direct result of expanded production through Roadshow opportunities. "The Bible" (coming to the Broadway Oct. 12), a culmination of the groat skills of producer Dino De Laurcnliis, director John Huston and the screenplay's author, Christopher Fry, is a brilliant creative effort.

Its breathtaking presentation of the story of creation starting with the first seven days and the Garden of Eden is the most stirring film I have ever seen. Ten years ago I wouldn't have believed anyone should attempt "The Bible," not for anything in the world. When the idea came up, I couldn't see the show in it. But, with Ihe long range, broad scale production possible today, with the vast international audience on tap for such products, even this incredible idea has become an incredible reality. 11 is creative more than anything else.

John Huston is an absolute riot as Noah, and you see him build the ark scientifically right before your eyes. Garner To Star HOLLYWOOD--James Garner has ben signed for a starring role in "The Law and Tombstone," Mirisch Corp. presentation to be produced and directed by John Sturges. This will be the first of four pictures on a new contract between Slurges' company and The Mirisch Corp. United Artists will release the film.

We could never have hoped to bring "The Bible" to this country, or planned for distribution Ihroughout world, without the proven success of reserved-seat engagements. We are deeply committed to this fundamental concept of making and presenting films. 11 is fully reflected in our 6768 production program of Roadshows. We expect "Doctor Dolittle" to have a great chance of repeating "The Sound of Music" appeal for total family business. Academy Award winner Rex Harrison heads the ciist of this fantastic musical.

There are over 5,000 highly trained animals in the company many of them with speaking roles. the musical biography of Gertrude Lawrence, reunites "The Sound of Music" star and director Julie Andrews and Robert Wise. And at long last I think we have licked the obstacles to filming "Justine." This is a special favorite of mine which will encompass the four Lawrence Durell novels about Alexandria. I recently returned from a successful location hunting expedition in Egypt and it should soon, be set for '67 production. "Tom Swift" will go before the cameras early next year.

It is based on the most popular books of every recent generation the Tom Swift sc- ries and is to be produced much in the genre of "Around The World in 80 Days." And this line-up is only the beginning. If my comments here seem boastful, forgive me. But frankly, it is hard to curb my enthusiasm for the Roadshow movement. 1 have the goods to prove my facts. Jerry Lewis 9 Son To Sing HOLLYWOOD-Jerry Lewis' son Gary has been set by producer Malcolm Stuart to sing the title song of 20th Century-Fox's "Way.

Out," in which the elder Lewis stars as a weather astronaut on the moon. Young Lewis, who leads a musical aggregation billed as "The Playboys," also has recorded the title song of the space comedy. Lalo Schifrin wrote the music and Hal Winn the words to "Way. Out." The film, directed by Gordon Douglas, also stars Connie Stevens, Robert Morley, Anita Eckberg, Dick Shawn and Brian Keith. something to talk over When "the girls" get together, you want everything in your home to be just so -from the flower arrangement to the carpeting underfoot.
