PAGE 4 THE SUN, BALTIMORE, SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE 18, 1955 Of Stage And Screen The Solid-Gold Truth By R. GARDNER EVERYTHING you've heard about "Marty" is true. iVs a fine movie. It establishes its author, Paddy Chayefsky, who adapted it from his original television play, as one of the country's foremost dramatic writers. And the performances by Ernest Borgnine, as a butcher With problems about the opposite sex, and Betsy Blair, as an old-maid schoolteacher, are superb.

The courtship of these two, plus the influences bearing upon it before and after their meeting in a Bronx dance hall, make up the subject matter for the most realistic American motion picture we've ever seen. It's easily apparent why the 1955 Interna i "Vh llili IN lllllif v- -s fc i I II I Lv-'V Mr I I k-f 1 I vf sf I 1 Aftss Ehrabeth Ricfi and Miss Jcme Murphy (from left) are seeruaboard the Ryndam in New York harbor before sailing for a two-montfis' tour of the Continent. News Of Baltimore Society With his radio on the Lubumbashi, Captain de Groote keeps in touch with his short-wave fan club. Waves Of Good Will For The Congo tional Film Festival at Cannes awarded "Marty," now at the Playhouse, the golden palm grand prize. Harold Hecht and Burt Lancaster are to be congratulated for their insight in transforming Mr.

Chayefsky's eloojuent script into this psychologically incisive full-length film. As interpreted by Mr. Borgnine under the brilliant direction of Delbert Mann, who also directed the TV version, Marty is just a "little guy," like the butcher In the corner grocery. He's no matinee, idol, Marty. In fact, as he puts it himself, he's just a fat, ugly little man.

Therefore it's not surprising, in the light of the physical standards demanded by the average American girl, that he has trouble in finding a woman to go out with. His mother worries about this fact, because all his younger brothers and sisters have been married for ages, and the fact that he is an Italian and a Catholic doesn't help matters either. The trouble is that nobody seems to understand that marriage, particularly if you are a fat, ugly little man, is easier said than done. He and his friend Angie (Joe Man-tell) go out on the town every Saturday, but it is always the good-looking sharpies that get the girls, whereas Afarty gets the brushoff. Finally, when the pressure put on him by his mother (Esther Minciotti) and other Italian matrons throughout the neighborhood becomes too great, Marty goes to the Stardust dancehall.

There he meets Clara, the schoolteacher, who, like himself, is a "dog." All of the pent-up craving for affection that each has stored up over their 30 or more years asserts itself, and they fall in love. It is then, however, that Marty finds that life, even when you've got a girl, is far from being just a bowl of cherries. This story, compounded from the pain and raw stuff of daily living, is never dull, even though it moves with a pace that by Hollywood movie standards might seem a bit draggy. There is not one word, one scene in the whole thing that doesn't ring the bell of truth, and anyone seeing it should emerge from the theater with a sense of satisfaction rare in their movie-going experience. To put it simply, "Marty" is great.

By HELEN DELICH Editor of The Sun portant to them. "So I went on the air and appealed to persons who listened to the short-wave station.

It wasn't long before we had 5,000 persons signed up." His membership, now consisting of 8,000 persons who paid only $1 to join originally, ranges from Gothenburg, Sweden, to Morenco, from Lisbon, Portugal, to Abilene, Texas; from Matadi, on the Congo, to Baltimore; from Reykjavik, Iceland, to Anniston, Ala. In the meantime, three additional shortwave stations in Belgium have been added. All are listed as one ORU, the International Good Will Station and each is on a different wave length. All the programs are scheduled to fit in with each other, and the program slated for Indonesia and Australia is on the wave length that can reach that far. The International Good Will programs can be heard at different times of the day and week in French, Swedish, Flemish, Portu- CaPT.

RAYMOND DE GROOTE, skipper of the Belgian motorship Lubumbashi, is president of 8.000 radio fans, scattered in all corners of the world, who organized to restore a short-wave station in Leopold-ville, Belgian Congo. The tall, husky mariner organized the fan club when the Belgian Government, after World War II, threatened to close the station because its usefulness supposedly was at an end. In excellent English, the distinctly speaking master related that the Leopoldville station was the only one that seamen could pick up out on the waters, and he also knew that many persons living in the Congo relied heavily on it for information and entertainment. "When I protested its closing," the 49-year-old skipper recalled, "I was told to prove it. Proving it meant getting 2,000 persons within five years to say that they wanted to keep the station because it was im- guese, English, Danish and Norwegian.

Those scheduled for Indonesia, Australia and New Zealand are timed for 1000 Greenwich Mean Time on ORU for Scandinavia at 1800 on ORU 5. with Swedish being the given tongue on Tuesdays and Fridays; Danish on Wednesdays, and Norwegian on Thursdays. "These stations are more widely listened to than we ever imagined," the mariner relates. "A good example occurred recently when the government, in a curtailment program, decided to eliminate the Spanish and Portuguese sections. Why even the ambassador interfered." Since the members pay only $1 at the time they enroll, and nothing later, it is difficult for him to keep sending out lists of members and other data with regularity.

Therefore, he only fulfills direct requests on his own. Captain de Groote, who inaugurated the short-wave good-will club, began sailing at the age of 17. When he brought his Lubumbashi in's Baltimore, it was the ship's maiden trip to Baltimore, although it had made a trip to the Congo since its completion in a shipyard at Antwerp.
