Dick Quine Watches And Learns, Becomes Successful Director By BOB THOMAS HOLLYWOOD (ffi In 1942, a young actor named Richard Qulne played a minor role In a movie called "My Sister Eileen." Today Columbia Is making "My Sister Eileen" again, and the director Is named Richard Qulrie. Same guy. This is one of those success stories that make you believe anybody can do anything if he has' the will. Talent helps, too. On Broadway We fade in on a young actor from Detroit who was seeking his fortune in the big city.

He landed in Broadway show, "Very Warm for May," at 18, then drew the part of Prank Llpgeneott in "My Sister Eileen" with'Shirley Booth. That brought him to Hollywood with an MGM contract. One of his first'films was a loan- but to Columbia to repeat as Frank Llppencott in "My Sister Eileen" with Rosalind Russell and Janet Blair. He continued at MGM as a juvenile, with time out for the Coast Guard during the war. Seeks Other Fields? His acting fortunes didn't thrive after the war.

Hollywood descended into its depression, and talent rosters were cut to the bone. He was dropped by MGM. Dick decided to seek other fields. "I never had been entirely happy as an actor," he told me. "Whenever I saw myself on the 'screen, I always thought, 'If only I could have told myself what to do!" With a friend, he wrote, directed and produced a quickie called "Leather Gloves," which attracted some attention.

He turned talent scout for Columbia, scouring little theaters all over the country for star possibilities. Then he decided he needed to know more about the movie business. So he took a job as dialogue director at Columbia at $150 a week, working on pic- ures like "Petty Girl." Quite a comedown for an actor who had been getting $1,000 a week at MGM. Ready For So.lo But he watched and learned and soon he was ready to fly solo as a director. He started with a musical melange called "Sunny Side of the Street" and continued with some Mickey Rooney films that were low on budget but high in 'Richard And Crusaders' Is Sunday Film At Patio The Sir Walter Scott classic "The is the basis of the cine- mascope color film "King Richard ahd the Crusaders," which opens Sunday at Patio Theater.

Virginia Mayo is seen as the king's niece, and newcomer Laurence Harvey as the part of the knight errant, Sir Kenneth. The story concerns the attempt of King Richard, leading a combined force of all the Christian nations of the 12th Century, to recover the Holy Sepulchre from the M6S- lems.

"King Richard and the Crusaders" was directed by David Butler. Max Steiner composed the music for the film. entertainment. Recently he came through with a sleeper, "Pushover," with Fred MacMurfay and Kim Novak. That won him the "Eileen" assignment.

Sen. Douglas Credits Democrats For Switch In Tank Contracts GRANITE CITY, m. sen. Douglas (D-Ill) believes Democrats helped give the Chrysler Corp. a large contract for production of Army M-48 tanks.

And he hopes It will help reduce unemployment In this area. The Illinois senator, campaigning for re-election In November, told newsmen Thursday that Democratic opposition In the Senate to "concentration" of defense contracts with General Motors Corp. helped get' the contract for Chrysler which was announced Wednesday.
