Wednesday, Jan. 6, 1982 Philadelphia Inquirer Obituaries Hans Conried, 64, a veteran character actor By Burr Van Atta Inquirer Staff Writer Hans Conried, 64, the Baltimoreborn actor who parlayed a gift accents, and a melancholy, character, snobbish one of the busiest careers in show business, died Tuesday in Burbank, Calif. Spokesmen at St. Joseph's Medical Center said Mr. Conried had been admitted Sunday after suffering a heart attack.

The actor, who described himself as an "old-fashioned ham," broke into the films working with Mel Blanc, supplying voices for Hollywood cartoons and animated shorts. Blanc considered him the "funniest man I ever While he held several cartoon characters in high esteem, Mr. Conried put the villain "Snively Whiplash," the constant opponent of "Dudley Do-Right," at the head of his list. Equipped with perfect diction, dedication to his and a flexible voice heard in hundreds of cartoons, he found success quickly and became concerned about fellow actors. He was a founding member of the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (AFTRA).

He won his start on radio in 1935, working on Orson Welles' Mercury Theater at $5 an appearance. He earned a bit more working in John Hans Conried The famous sneer Barrymore's radio productions of Shakespeare and appearing in dramatic scripts by Norman Corwin and Arch Oboler. A year later, he won his first character role in films, working with a teenaged discovery named Lana Turner. She was so young that she Msgr. John J.

Noone, 62, diocesan administrator tor Monsignor John J. Noone, 62, pastor of St. Matthias Parish in Bala Cynwyd, died Monday in the church rectory. He had a history of heart problems. One of the best-known archdiocesan administrators, Monsignor Noone served in a number of posts, both for the church and for the City of Philadelphia.

Born in Lost Creek, he studied at St. Charles Borromeo Seminary in Overbrook and was ordained in 1949. He received a degree in canon law at Catholic University of America in Washington. For seven years, he served as assistant pastor in Philadelphia churches. His talent for administration won attention.

In 1953, Cardinal Dennis Dougherty named him assistant chancellor for the diocese. He was named vice chancellor the following year. In 1958, Monsignor Noone was appointed chancellor of the Archdiocese of Philadelphia. He held the post for 10 years. As chancellor, he presided over the division of the archiocese and the formation of the new Diocese of Allentown by Pope John XXIII in 1961.

The reconstituted Philadelphia was accompanied to the set by a tutor and a chaperone. They turned out Dramatic School, a film released in 1938 and seldom mentioned again. As World War II threatened, Mr. Conried was nearly overwhelmed by work. On stage and in films, he appeared as snarling Gestapo agents, snarling German submarine commanders and snarling, heel-clicking, brutish Nazis.

During the war, he found new role. He spent three years in a tank outfit. After the war, credits came quickly. By the late 1950s, he had appeared in more than 100 films, many of them westerns. "I was never the working heavy, the fellow who opens the gate to let the rustlers in," he recalled.

"I was the town heavy the impeccably attired villain with the fancy waistcoat." The western roles were lush, he said. "At least they got me out of submarines and I've turned in my turtleneck sweater. "I'm still a louse, of course. But instead of sinking hospital ships, I cheat at cards or foreclose mortgages on widows with good-looking daughters." With the advent of TV, his clipped British accent, his 1 owlish, something-here-smells-bad look, Monsignor John J. Noone promptly notified Father Noone that he had broken canon law.

Liturgical instructions "preclude girls from serving Mass," the commission noted. Women now participate in the Mass. Surviving are a brother, William and sisters, Mrs. Walter Schearer, Mrs. Francis Keefe and Mrs.

Joseph Fioretti. Cardinal Krol will offer a Mass of Christian Burial at 11 a.m. Thursday at St. Matthias Church, Bryn Mawr and Highland Avenues. Burial will be in Calvary Cemetery, West Conshohocken.

A jazz musician as well as a vocalist, he had played with some of the best in the business. As a bassist, he worked and toured with a long list of big bands, such as Benny Goodman's, and he worked with trios and quartets and small jazz groups.

He had played and recorded with the major black figures of popular music, people such as Billie Holiday, Teddy Wilson, Sarah Vaughan, Hawkins, Mahalia Jackson, Coleman. dridge, Charlie Shavers and John Coltrane. Like many of the musicians with whom he worked, he was raised on music and religion. His mother, Mrs. Thomas Calvin Bryant is a minister in the Pentescostal Church, as was her mother.

She sings and plays the piano by ear. His late father also played piano and was the leader of the church quartet. His father attracted a great deal of when he brought home an interest, player piano.
