Nashville This is known as cashing in on a name. Apparently, it is not uncommon for some film companies to re-release earlier films of stars, in which the "star" had only a minor role before they reached their present status. There was a Brooke Shields movie out recently which was made several years ago before she was a top attraction.

Change the name of the movie, give Brooke top billing, and presto, you have quick bucks from unsuspecting fans. 25 to 50 OFF Summer Maternity Wear DRESSES PANTS TOPS AND ACTIVE SPORTSWEAR WRONG ACTRESS Last Friday night at 11 pjiL, a movie, "The New Maverick," came on, starring James Garner. My brothers and our friend say that the lady who played Alice the poker lady is the same lady who does the Polaroid One-Step camera commercials with Garner. I say wrong. Please tell them I'm right and I'll be $20 richer.

D.S.C.- Nashville You're right. It was not Mariette Hartley. Su- -san Sullivan played Poker Alice. MISLEADING AD-I would like to point out a' terrible misjustice to Chuck Norris. A few days ago, an ad appeared annoucing a new movie starring Chuck Norris called "Slaughter in San Francisco." I went to the movie and was horrified to see that this was an early 1970s movie in which he had only a minor role.

He only appeared in about 20 to 30 minutes of the hour-and-a-half film. This, in my opinion, is false advertising in which a star's name is used falsely by the distributor to make money.
