12:15 Free Pkg. Open All Night not what I've seen on the stage," he said. He also added that if this kind of controversy continues, it "will keep exciting theater people out of California." Gregory was also worried about what will happen when the theater asks questions? "Most great theater has been dissent," he said. "It's a shame to keep dissent out of the theater." A woman in the audience disagreed, explaining her viewpoint that as long as any rough play can scrape up its own money, it should play. But such a production should not expect support from the public trough, she said.

Standards Low Miss Marden, an actress as well as theatrical producer, noted that she thought standards of theater in the United States "are still shockingly low" and Gregory interrupted with "they don't exist." A later session on "The Creative Artist Views Himself" fell into a shambles of acrimony and ar-gument. Only actress Pippa Scott and dancer Bella Lewitzky had a serious artistic purpose. Benny Buffano, the San Francisco sculptor, delivered a harangue against war in Vietnam and Billy Al Bengston, a bearded hippie painter, took one look at the audience, mostly women, and sat down, muttering, "Man, I don't belong in this place." Opera Program at El Monte The Young Peoples Opera Assn. will present operatic scenes and acts at El Monte High School, 3058 Tyler Avenue, Saturday at 8:15 p.m. Byron Cantrell is musical director, Mona Paulee stage director, and Michael Panaieff choreographer.

The program, sponsored by the Culver City Department of Parks and Recreation, will include selections from "Carmen," "Aida," "Don Giovanni" and "Tosca." Although the theatrical scene in Los Angeles looks flourishing, the big test for its artistic and financial soundness will come in the next 10 years. This point was empha- sized by a panel discussing "Professional Theater in California'' presented by the Calif ornia Arts Commission at the Statler-Hilton in conjunction with the African Symphony Orchestra League's national conference in Los Angeles this week. Moderated by John Houlton, director of Theater Forty, the panel included actor Phillip Abbott, chairman of the board of Theater West, Lyle Dye Jr. of The Music Center, Adrienne Marden, producer for The Players Company and director Andre Gregory, also of Theater West. They agreed the workshop is the form professional stages are taking here outside the commercial theater and the two new playhouses in The Music Center complex.

Public Support Funding, censorship and whether public support can be sustained over the long period needed to build topflight theater deeply worried the panelists. Another continual plaint was that Los Angeles has an "edifice complex" without real cultural compulsion. New theaters but no acting companies or resident playwrights to fill them, the panelists agreed. Dye pointed out that at The Music Center "we're still finding our way" and that nothing is locked into either the Ahmanson or the Taper Forum "because nobody knows yet what the public will support." Gregory, Theater West's brilliant young director here from Philadelphia, sounded the censorship alarm. "I am astonished," he said, "at the furore over sex in the theater here.

It's what really upsets people and somehow only in the theater.

i After that recent foofa-. raw featuring, as it were, gorged Bonds, the initial 007 is back among us for his fifth outing, "You Only Live Twice." At that, it may be a farewell bow Sean Connery swears on a stack of stale that he'll never do another. That remains to be seen. is now available to vbe seen (it opened Wed nesday at Grau man's Chinese) is a film good I enough to make you wish Mr. Connery would consider unswearing.

It is a film which, in that are admittedly subtle rather than gross, differs from the four ear-, lier epics. It was directed by Lewis Gilbert, who also did the different vehicle, "Alfie." One of his influences, as a man accustomed to dealing in cha- racter, has been to make James Bond a somewhat rounder, warmer character than he has previously ieen. More Credibility Lsser characters, too, have made noticeable ad- vances toward credibility. the nature of this 'art-form within an art-form, we are doubtless about a higher grade of cardboard and only that. But d- Connery, Scots burr more evident than ever, emerv ges as an engaging chap rather than a secret service machine with coun- terpane capabilities.

Some responsibility for must be shared by Roald Dahl, well-known for his polished, surprise-ending short stories. He wrote the script, which is nicely witty except for three or four clangers of the kind that pass for wit only in smoking cars to- wards 3 a.m., somewhere -west of Peoria. The plot sets Bond in Japan, racing against time -to see who's sending up spaceships to kidnap other spaceships and thus provoke war between the United States and Russia, 'who naturally suspect each other.

HI! 1ft a i' ii ti i i a Blofeld (played with feline menace by Donald Pleasence), carved in the core of an extinct volcano, must be one of the most elaborate sets constructed in recent years. It is said to have spanned four soundstages and cost $1 million.

It would at any price have delighted Ian Fleming's heart. The gadgetry of course is everywhere. Instead of the machine gun-equipped Aston Martin, we now have a vest-pocket helicopter with the fire power of a battleship. Among the visual delights of the film is a spectacular helicopter dog-f i t. Connoisseurs will be pleased as well by a chopper which airlifts a car full of baddies via a huge magnet, swings out over the Bay of Tokyo and lets the car drop, kerplash.

Science, it's wonderful. Crashes and Splashes It is, naturally, the mixture as ever before: crashes, splashes, chases, whingding flights, hairbreadth 'scapes, and this time a lot of lovingly tographed Japanese scenery (inevitably including several flowers of its womanhood as Bond-san bonanzas). "Thunderball," the previous Bond filmed, showed signs of labored breathing, flagging invention and a desperate hope that special effects would carry the day. "You Only Live Twice" suggests that everybody got his second wind. Whatever Mr.

Connery says, he seemed to be enjoying his work. The Bond films continue to be a breed unto themselves; you like them or you don't. I do, and found this one a fast, funny, no-holds-barred piece of outrageous nonsense. niversary season this year, opening with the National Ballet of Mexico on June 24 and closing with the national Ballet of Yugoslavia.
