The 36-yearoId Britisher wrote and starred in Stop tiie World I Want to Get Off1 and The Roar of the Greasepaint The Smell of the Crowd on Broadway and appeared in 40 movies.1 But he is unhappy with todays films. Not adversely critical but determined that they should be better.

He envisions a revolution in picture-making in the next two decades. THE FUTURE of enter-, tainment is science," he explained. The creation of world ence anticipating new and exciting stories ami proaches to drama. There is a hew freedom. A new openness, of mind," he said.

"People are more ready for adult entertainment with 'good taste. Well be seeing more of that great motivating power, sex. But. not for sensationalism. Rather it will be handled realistically.

Nudity, too, will become commonplace. "SOMEONE WILL write a new novel or script that will set the whole thing off, just as the 007 spy stories generated a Anew cycle. Some of it yin be junk, but it wUl improve." Newly hopes that he will be in the vanguard of the Lift combine. Although the company has used a number of different lions over the years In various types of promotion, Dietz recalls that the lion which today roan the black-and-white screen is the one which was photographed originally In 1924. Another lion was later photographed for use With color films.

The lions roar, which is as much a part of tbs trademark as the lion itself, is not quite so authentic. According to Dietz, roar was added when sound came in not by a lion but by a gentleman, whose name is haw forgotten but whose specialty was animal seufidar people eround the have more leisureevery-where making all the gfobifg occupents an aodi-otfcipeting.

The realistic future of human endeavor still is untouched on television or films, he went on. "But writers continue to tell about boy-meets-girL Or if theyre particularly daring in Europe, how boy-meets-boy or giri-meets-girL They havent taken the fust step toward the real frontiers of the human mind, for instance. The entire scope of the human mind awaits investigation.

Yet it is untouched in modem drama." It is Newieys belief that However, the screen Leo, of which there Jiave been two, will be saved from retirement hes just too well known. MGM management, which began the idea of a new trademark in 1963, thus is heeding the results of its survey which showed that Leo is only as fo-mous as the telephone companys bell, but even more famous than the trademarks of Shell Oil, Westinghouse and the Columbia Broadcasting Systems TV' net-, work.
