"Then I put the script away in a drawer for almost six months without doing anything about it because I sincerely felt that the only man to direct It was John Huston, and I'd heard that he wouldn't do another picture in this country. He had been working abroad for years. RETURNING TO PLAY "But I finally showed the script to an old friend, Frank Taylor, a book publisher who eventually took leave of absence to serve as our producer, and he immediately commented that only Huston could direct it properly. I told him what I had heard about Huston, and Taylor replied that this waa one he was sure the director would come back here to do.

So a script was sent to Huston at his home in Ireland, and he accepted in less than a week." Hollywood need expect no more Miller scripts for a while, no matter how successful "The Misfits" may be. "I'm going back to the play I've been working on for some eight years," Miller "This time I'm going to see it through to the finish." 2 adult music courses Listed at Cheltenham Two music courses are among the 79 subjects offered by the Cheltenham Township Adult School, beginning Monday evening, Jan. 30, for 10 weeks.

A decade of serious illness has not hurt Clara Bow's beauty, says Richard Arlen, her old co-star in "Wings." Each Christmas, ail of Clara's old friends and some new stars who weren't bora when she was the "It" girl of the Roaring Twenties get touching handwritten notes from her.

But none, except Arlen and her family ever set her. NERVOUS CONDITION "I've visited her," says Arlen. "She still looks as beautiful as ever. We talk of the old days, just like it was still 1927. She's as sharp as she ever was.

And still has that great sense of humor. She knows everything that is going on in the business." Clara, now 52, has been confined to a rest home in nearby Culver City since the early '50s. She is under constant medical care for a nervous condition. Her husband is Rex Bell, onetime cowboy star and now Lieutenant Governor of Nevada. Says Bell: "If she had been Minnie Zilch instead of Clara Bow, perhaps this would never have happened to her.

But the emotional strain of her early years was just too much for her nervous system. SOUGHT QUIET LIFE "It's like training horses. Sometimes when you're starting thoroughbreds, you break them in too early." During Clara's 10 years in the limelight from the time she won a Brooklyn beauty contest until a nervous breakdown ended her reign as the movies' prize sex symbol she lived and played hard. Then she and Bell moved to Searchlight, for the quiet life on a huge ranch. She laid then: "I don't want my two boys to become Hollywood kids.

I wouldn't want them to go through what I did." Clara knew whereof she spoke because she was just a teen-ager when she won that beauty contest and after that life was just one giddy whirl i in a whirling era.

BLUES" ANT AI niSN'EY'S "10 WHO DARED" P1 6 By JACK GAYER Continued from Flrsl Page written the script for Mist Monroe, whose separation from the playwright after a four-year marriage was announced last Novemoer. They are expected to divorce, "But it was not written for her in the usual theatrical sense of its being a 'vehicle' for a star," Miller said. "The role Just happens to be exactly right for her and she for it. apd the three male roles are of equal importance.

It is a script that, I hope, has something to say." What? "Well. I knew I'd be asked about that. Fact is, I just finished writing a letter to John Huston, the director, in which I mentioned that. I told him that if anyone asked me what the theme was, I would tell them to ask Huston, and if anyone asked him about it. he was to tell them to ask Miller.

SEARCH FOR VALUES "But. seriously, I'll leave it to others to docide what the picture is about. And I don't think anyone who sees it will have any trouble deciding what it means. I will say this much-it concerns the struggle within people to find permanent relationship with each other. It is a search for value in a world that seems to have no value.

Anything more definite will have to come from others." The story, set in and around Reno, stems from a short story Miller wrote several yeari ago after he had been in the Nevada city getting a divorce from his first wife. Miss Monroe has the role of a new divorcee, and Gable, Clift and Wallach play disparate but equally "lost" characters with whom she comes in contact there. MEANINGFUL DRAMA "I spent a year and a half on the script," Miller explained, "after it suddenly came to me that the short story had the basic material for a meaningful drama for the screen. I kept discussing the idea with friends until I felt the compul TONIGHT RONNII INDRIWS u4 Hit Ore healr TUESDAY WORLD FAMOUS TUISDAT I to 12 P.M Abb. Art Cinema KM Kt HO!

It will be a modestly budgeted black and white movie with Douglas playing a Westerner who has no restrictions on himself in regard to society. Shooting begins in the spring. Following its completion, all attention will be put on "Montezuma," which will take at least 18 months to prepare and two years to make. John Huston is writing the screenplay and will direct it on location in Mexico. Douglas will portray Corte but finding the right actor to play Montezuma is the problem.

"Marlon Brando would be perfect," says Lewis. B. L. W. McCarter Theater Lists Bard plays The Association of Producing Artists returns to Princeton'i McCarter Theater Feb.

With the exception of two spots, business is just fine saya the Camden-born film producer, Edward Lewis, In fact, he adds, the picture is doing 20 percent better than "Ben-Hur" abroad. And where are the trouble spots? Well, aaya Lewis, Philadelphia happens to be one of the two. The box office, he admits, is 10 to 15 percent less than Lewis, star Kirk Douglas and Universal-International anticipated here. They don't feel they can put the blame entirely on the unfavorable reviews written by our critics.

Frankly, Lewis explains, they are atuck for an answer and can only ljope that wordof-moutn will stimulate more business. And the other city that has let them down? It's Osaka and this may be hard to believe but Lewis testifies to it. The metropolis is known as the Philadelphia of Japan! Despite this lack of Occidental and Oriental brotherly love for "Spartacus," it apparently has convinced Universal that Lewis and Douglas and their Bryna Production know how to put together a film much of the public wants.
