Ben is a rat. Not only can Willard communicate with the rodent but can actually command him Beginning with "VVil-lard's" inherent vicarious appeal haven't we all felt at one time or another that the world would be a better place with certain people removed from it? there is no secret why this Cinerama release succeeds so well. Quite simply, "Willard" has been written with much psychologi-. cal validity (and a dollop of dark humor) and has been persuasively acted by an outstanding cast under the unobtrusive direction of the veteran Daniel Mann. "Willard" knows just how far to go, wisely letting us complete the horror in our imaginations rather than spelling it out on the screen in the current grisly fashion and also taking care to point up the dire consequences to Willard for taking such drastic actions.

Miss Lanchester and Borgnine are at their very best, letting us recognize some humanity in their unsympathetic characters, No wonder "Willard" (in multiples) has been called the "sleeper" of the summer season: one could not ask for a more satisfying yet less pretentious hot weather suspense horror entertainment With its disturbed young hero, crumbling old mansion and macabre develop-in it immediately brings to mind "Psycho." The more apt comparison, however, is with that much cherished English comedy of some years back, "The Green Man," in which Alastair Sim (at his drollest) went around blowing up a series of troublesome types. So sympathetic was he, so obnoxiousso deserving of their fates were his victimsthat one hoped he would never get caught. We are made to feel much the same way about (Bruce Davison) when he decides to seek revenge upon those who have so sorely wronged him. At 27 Willard is in just about as hapless a bind imaginable. At home he has an ailing dotty mother (Elsa Lanchester) whom he loves despite her maddeningly unreasonable demands and at work, a factory once owned by his he has a crude, ruthless boss (Ernest Borgnine), the very man who destroyed his late M.

and Davison, given a bravura part, is more effective than he was in either "Last Summer" or "The Strawberry Statement." Sondra Locke adds a note of normalcy as a pretty secretary who tries to befriend Willard. Equally effective are Michael Dante as a slick office sycophant, Joan Shawlee as Borgnine's blowsy secretary-mistress and Jody Gilbert as Miss Lanches-ter's well meaning but overbearing friend. (Film buffs will recall Miss Gilbert as little Jenny Hecht's awful mother in Ben Hecht's "Actors and "Willard" makes noteworthy use of local settings, especially of the old Howard Verbeck mansion on Lucerne near Wilshire, an imposing landmark built in 1908 at the northeast corner of Wilshire and Rampart and moved to its present site with much fanfare in 1924.

Caesars Palace celebrates its fifth anniversary with the opening tonight in the Circus Maxi-mus showroom of the Steve Lawrence and Eydie Gorme show, and with parties Friday and Saturday night featuring celebrities, guests and members of royalty from around the world.

Though the husband and wife singing team played a week at Caesars earlier this "year, this engagement, which runs through Aug. 11, marks the first regular appearance under a new long-term contract with the hotel. In addition, Caesars has announced plans to host the Merv Griffin television show from July 29-Aug. 2. Griffin taped 10 shows at Caesars last May with such good results that both the hotel and Griffin's producers agreed to do the shows from the hotel periodically.

Besides the beginning of a three-week engagement last Monday night by Perry Como in the hotel's Showroom Internationale, the International has "A IITIC nmt 3 lAOMMUtST IBCI Anlhi I5S117?
