Hear she's also negotiating with Kirk Douglas, with whom she's appearing in "Spartacus," for a role In one of his Bryna productions. Tab Hunter must be ideal for "Billy Budd" since two producers want him for it. David Susskind is doing it on TV with Jason Robards Jr. and Franchot Tone, and an English producer is paging Tab to star in the movie. Jason Robards, incidentally, feels he's the luckiest actor in New York.

He's played in "The Disenchanted" five months and it's still going strong. BATTY "The Bat" actually ia the name of a mysterious master criminal played by Vincent Price In the movie of that name. The film's producer, C. J. Tevlin, goes Mary Roberts Rinehart's story one better, by using live bats in the show electrified Broadway in 1920, without bats, and grossed more than $9 million as a play.

Jimmy Durante's opening at the Desert Inn in Las Vegas must have dripped with nostalgia since Eddie Jackson was back in the show after a year's absence. Jackson was with Durante for 42 years. He was born Jacobs, went to school in Brooklyn and the late Al Capone was a classmate. Eddie once loaned Capone a dime when he was 12, and the nation's No. 1 gangster never forgot it.

In his palmy days he used to show up at the Club Durante under the name of Al Brown, and toss $100 bills onto the stage. Jimmy keeps his old friends. His drummer, Jack Roth, has been with him 40 years, his pianist Jules Buffano for 20. They've always appeared with him on TV shows. Wonder how Brigitte Bardot likes the fact that Europe calls Schneider "a Bardot body plus brains." I felt Brigitte had done pretty well in the brains department.

When Alfred Hitchcock finishes "No Bail for the Judge" in England with Audrey Hepburn, he hopes to take to the arctic regions with "Hot Ice" which will headquarter in Alaska. Dean Martin lined up Bob Hope and Mae West for his May 3rd spectacular which will be Dino's last show of the season.

Harry Morgan, so popular in the "December Bride" TV, joins Debbie Reynolds and Glenn Ford in "It Started With a Kiss." Bert Fink, formerly of TWA, called to say that he and Mrs. Fink welcomed their second boy, Peter Matthew, at Cedars of Lebanon Hospital yesterday morning. Hear Anna Marie Alber-ghetti replaces Gisele Mac-Kenzie with Jack Benny at the Greek Theater in August Jane Powell, Tab Hunter and Walter Pidgeon had little time for fun during rehearsals of "Meet Me In St. Louis" but felt the show well worth it. Jane's husband Pat Ner-ney spent his days in Wall Street since he's now joined a brokerage firm in Los Angeles.

ALL HUNG UP When Vic Dam one phoned to ask me what he should do about Pier An-geli I told him to start acting like a man instead of a sulky boy. "Cancel that ridiculous court order and write her a letter of apology." I said. "But she didn't let me see my son an extra day," he protested. I came back with: "Why should she? She was afraid youV hold the bov and (she'd miss her plane to Europe." "But she hung up on me," Vic wailed. "I will too unless you stop all this silly nonsense," said Hopper.

Yelton were scheduled to be shown at the Hermosa Beach Playhouse, unfortunately the first "Three Times Goodbye was not presented because of the illness of the leading lady.1 The other two, "The Legacy" and "The High Mountains," were built on escapist themes, with a more or less metaphysical approach.

Don Stubbs directed with an excellent sense of drama, but was inclined to allow his actors to make long pauses which made things slow and served to break up the play's continuity. The young actors were efficient but lacked the experience to project the thought strongly enough. A Lost Lady "The Legacy" pictures the plight of an elderly woman who finds herself lost in the modern world. Her daughter Ann is a singularly callous individual who is bored with mother's fantasies. The mother brings a few of her treasures for daugh ter, among others a beautiful lace tablecloth which she has crocheted.

Later realizing that her mementoes will not be appreciated she burns them in the fireplace. The play had poetic over tones of sadness, but would need rewriting and tightening to make it into some thing else more than a mono logue. Same Conrad gave a sym pathetic portrayal of the mother, though inclined to a rather colorless style in read ing. Collette McMahart was weak as the daughter, but a little boy, Robert Riley, was most engaging. "The High Mountains boasted moments of vital drama and some poignancy, though it was more or less depressing because of the un pleasant characters.

Imagination Mr. Yelton has achieved a bit of clever dramaturgy in his contrasting the hardy realistic atmosphere of rather bestial parents with that of the lovely imagina tive world the child Colin has created for himself.
