Mildred Frey. Elizabeth Baur Seeks Greater Challenges By VERNON SCOTT UPI Hollywood Correspondent HOLLYWOOD (UPI)-That pretty little girl in calico who wrings her hands in despair as the men folk gallop to and from the homestead in television's "Lancer" series is Elizabeth Baur. It is a time-honored role that goes back to silent horse operas. But Elizabeth seeks greater challenges. After all, she did study dramatic acting with Estelle Harmon and majored in theater arts at Los Angeles Valley College.

Elizabeth is blue-eyed, 5-foot 4-inches, lovely to look at and only 21 years old. A native of Los father is a casting director at 20th Century-Fox Studios- Elizabeth is as far removed from the swinging young people who gravitate to Hollywood as if she lived in Columbus, Ohio. Lives At Home The young actress lives at home with her parents in an old, established residential area Project Rulison Blast Shakes Up Wide Area GRAND VALLEY, -Colo. Seamenns, 85, with his 92-year-old wife --near fhe shattered mirror and lampshade in his mountain r-cabin. The giant nuclear explosion also had torn bricks from the chimney of the cabin.

"We don't like it," Seamenns said, shaking his head. "It -doesn't do us a damn bit of But we're not going to a big fuss about the Xdamage." The postmaster of Grand Valley, Carroll E. Byerrrum, six miles from the blast site. He saw the concussion knock bricks off the facing of -the 50-year-old Courthouse. Project Rulison had finally detonated Wednesday af- several weather delays.

"Explosion of the bomb, 15 '-'feet long and 9 inches in "'-'diameter, buried 8,442 feet -ibeneath the shale and stone of the Rocky Mountains, -interrupted telephone service, knocked rocks and chunks of mountainside off high i mesas and blew great clouds of dust into the clear Colorado air. Scientists and the Atomic Energy Commission also hoped the blast freed billion in natural gas to be tapped for commercial purposes. They won't know for sure, however, until the cavern shaft is opened in six months. It will take that long, officials said, underground radiation to dissipate. The blast came off without a hitch despite court fights, protesters and a week-long delay due to the weather.

The initial tremor registered 5.5 on the Richter Scale at the Colorado School of Mines, 70 miles away from ground zero in Melrose, Colo. Conservationists and a group of Colorado scientists waged an unsuccessful legal fight against Rulison all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court, they claimed Rulison, the third blast in the AEC's Plowshare series, would contaminate air and water. Rulison originally was set for last Thursday but adverse wind conditions postponed the daily reschedulings. of Los Angeles and doesn't intend to move.

Her bedroom is on the second floor and overlooks a generous garden filled with flowers and fruit trees. She is an only child who hasn't had a pet since her goldfish passed on to that big aquarium in the sky. Elizabeth has a special fondness for her home, due in no small measure the.fact she is a fifth generation Californian, a rarity. The Baur home is filled with furniture which once belonged to her great grandmother, Juanita Gless, an immigrant from the Basque country of France, and a pioneer settler of the San Fernando valley. There is a profusion of heavy wooden chairs, desks and chests of drawers that go back almost 200 years.

The walls are covered with magnificent old paintings. Elizabeth's room is more modern than the others. The decor is blue and violet with comfortable, contemporary furniture. The role of Teresa O'Brien in the CBS-TV series is not a taxing one, allowing Elizabeth as much as a week off at a time. Her agent finds her guest roles in other shows.

When she is inactive profes sionally, Elizabeth generally can be found at golf course where she shoots between 8f and 90. 'I was a better player when 1 was 16," Elizabeth says, "but then I had more time to devote to it." Elizabeth has scrupulously avoided the Baur kitchen. Her mother, according to the youthful actress, is the best cook in the United States and Europe as well. For that reason the Baurs seldom go to restaurants. All agree that the en urmet dinners at home almost every night.

Neither does Elizabeth help out with housework. She makes her own bed and tidies her room, but a cleaning woman comes in to relieve the burden Man And Cow Struck Gold NEVADA CITY, Calif. (UPI) one October day in 1850, George cKnight was chasing his cow across a pasture in Nevada County when his foot struck an outcropping of rock that broke off quite" easily'. He stopped to examine the 'rock and found it was quartz that was shot through with gold. From the very spot where the rock broke off came $1.5 million in gold and from just 150 feet away came another $4 million in gold.

Today a granite shaft topped with a large piece of gold quartz marks the spot. Togetherness ST. LOUIS (UPI) Mrs. Robert Weckherlin Mrs. Eugene Weckherlin are sisters- in-law.

Elizabeth loves beautiful clothes but loathes The result is a compromise, a mixture of new and old, short and long skirts and a variety of slsctcs "I'd love tc able to call a designer and have her make out a whole spring or autumn wardrobe and deliver them," Elizabeth says. She has beaux but no plans for marriage, insisting that she wants a career more than a family at this point in her life.

"Anyhow," Elizabeth concludes, "I'd be foolish to get married because I'm not in love." Sept. Nursehy Slabaugh Sept. Sales Service Humphreys Brenner Sept! 'iS-Richard Lane Ray Booth Sept. Helen Teeter Vogel Sept. Earl Mabel C.
