The Philadelphia fair would have been the first internationally accredited exposition since the 1939 New York World's Fair. "Even without an international exposition, we expect hundreds of thousands of fellow Americans will want to make their pilgrimage to the Philadelphia area," Dr. Marvel said.

"Our institutions must get ready to show these visitors what Philadelphia has to offer out of its rich heritage." President Nixon, who ordered. Philadelphia's withdrawal before departing for Moscow, assured jRunaway of Philadelphia, the Library Co. of PhiUde'phla, tha Pennsylvania Academy cf the Fine Arts, the Philadelphia Museum of Art, the Philadelphia Orchestra and the Philadelphia Zoological Garden. "We recognize the central role the city and the area must play in celebrating the birth of our nation," said Dr. William W.

Studio Sale Ends Project by Bronston BY PATRICIA JOHNSON Excluslvt to The Times MADRID The speculation on Samuel Bronston ever actually getting "Isabella of Spain" off the ground stopped months ago.

But this week, at the studios which Bronston built when he was the first producer to discover Spain for shooting epic pictures on smaller budgets, an un-' Usual auction seemed to end the prospect. The auction, under the auspices of the Banco Es-panole De Credito and in collaboration with the Spanish government, sold off everything at the studios from wastepaper baskets to old sets. Proceeds of the auction spread over four days and with 1,500 different lots coming under the auctioneer's gavel will go to the Union of Film Workers which sued on behalf of some members owed outstanding amounts of back pay. Official Line Bronston 's official line on the action was no but a publicist who has worked with him over the years said that Bronston two weeks ago at the christening party of the child of his former production manager was talking of plans to build a new studio. He was also claiming that "Isabella" (which was to have starred Glenda Jackson) will become reality one day.

"Sam came closer to making 'Isabella' than anyone thought possible," said the publicist, "and being the kind of man he is, not out of the question that he could pull yet another surprise." MID.

The girls, scantily clad and posing as hitchhikers, prey upon solitary middle- aged males. Once the sucker (usually with easy sex on his mind) stops his car, Benson pops out from be- jhind a tree and puts a gun, the poor guy's temple. IThus the family, which lives in a desert ghost town, supports itself with little effort.

'Is Ribald, Lightweight p. -The point, of course, of 'this well-made Entertain-, sfnent Ventures release, is 'simply to provide ribald, 1 i eight entertain-' ment, not too heavy on either sex or violence, and It succeeds admirably. Whether intentionally or not, it also serves as a reminder about how blurred the line between the hippie and criminal element can get. While free from moralizing, the film is sufficiently responsible to suggest that the Benson-ites, who are not vicious with the exception of the embittered and jealou Miss Avery by their very 'recklessness are constantly endangering nisei ves and their victims. Again, without any underlining, the film also makes it clear that.

Benton, an attractive fellow, supplies the girls with affection and a sense of belonging they weren't getting at home. In short, producers- Ferd and Beverly. Sebastian are 1 imaginative (and ven graceful) film-mak- 1 rs who may have what it to go on to bigger things.
