His pro-Uueer, Harry Saltzman, who also makes the Bond iilms, quickly signed Caine to a new five-year contract. "I didn't particularly want to be tied up," said the actor, "so I established onditions that I considered ridiculous.

To my astonishment, they were accepted." Within the space of a year, Caine had filmed "Ipcress." as well as "Alfie" fur Paramount and "Tho Wrong Box" for Columbia.

Most of By DOROTHY MANNERS Motion Picture Editor, Htartt Htidlino Service HOLLYWOOD Seldom have I read more exalted reviews than the New York critics (even the tough ones to crack) gave "Hogan's Goat." Apparently Spencer Tracy, Richard Burton, Elizabeth Taylor and Peter O'Toole read the same notices.

I can tip you that all of these stars have "let it be known" they are interested in the screen version of the play hich is almost a cinch to win the Critics Award. "Hogan's Goat" is the first produced play of William Alfred, a professor of English at Harvard.

--j HOLLYWOOD amazing to think that one could put on glasses and an ill-fitting suit and become a star." Michael Caine is indeed being treated like a star on his first trip to Hollywood. He has been guest of honor at glittering parties given by two studios. He has been squiring some of the town's most noted glamor girls, from Carol Lynlcy to Natalie Wood. And he is co-starring with Shirley MacLaine in 'Gambit." All this is gratifying but not overwhelming to the chap whose father was a i h-market porter and whose mother was a London charwoman.

Davis has found the ideal setting for its unconventional experiments: the octagonal former equestrian show arena now converted into the Wyatt Pavilion Theater. And compared with the wild sounds which the NME puts out even the cries of the Macbeth witches would seem tame in this Shakespeare-oriented stable. 71 10th AnnlvcrMry Swn of THE WORLD'S GREATEST MIME THE BEST OF MARCEAU IN A NEW PROGRAM my are doinj big tilings at 25 and 28." IT WASN'T because he didn't try.

Throughout his twenties he sought to make a living as an actor, "but it was a rotten living much of the time." Between roles he took any job he could find. "One of my best jobs was making fruit pies in a bakery," he recalled. "Night work was prized by actors. They left us the day free to tour the casting offices." He has no problem about future work. After "Gam-bit," he films another Harry Palmer, the best-selling "Funeral in Berlin." He hopes to return for a Hollywood movie.

"I'd like to get a good 20 years as an actor," observed Caine. "If you can make a career last that long, you're pretty lucky." composer calls, "movement improvisation." PERCUSSIONIST Stanley Lunetta composed "Quartet 1965," for vibes, flute, violin, and string bass. The bass, in the spirit of tho evening, collapsed, ad lib, midway in the work. Lunetta has written an especially strong opening section employing jazz figures, and including a Roland Kirk-like siren solo. In "Views," John Ileineman has composed a study in sustained long-line warm tones for two clarinets, two saxes, and percussion.

The remainder of the evening, featuring the unusual NME menagerie of improvised sounds was highlighted by Art Woodbury's soprano sax on a jazz piece and by pianist Richard Swift, who probes the strings and sounding board with a mallet like a pianoforte dentist. Drummer Lunetta also displayed his new found techniques at playing cymbals with a violin bow. GOOD Seals Avallablel TONITE at 8.30 tVARNll II0S. ruuNtii SUPER 1 nssucnoN m. an im.

I asked, "Who's sharing it with you?" meaning the view, of course. lie said, "My attorney, Lee Colton." That's as bad as taking a mother-in-law on a vacation. But when a fellow wants to rest, as Trini does after two years of solid work, there's no better security than a barrister. But playtime is over, and the senor heads back to New York for "Hullabaloo" and Sammy Davis TV shows followed by concert tours in South America.

"I shake Colton in New York," Trini signed off. "I'll get back to girls any minute." THE NEIGHBORS in Palm Springs who didn't want Frank Sinatra landing his helicopter at his home on the 17th fairway at Tamarisk golf course, didn't win their protest. But the best laugh comes from talent director Bobby Colin and director Phil Karlson playing golf on the course while Frank was flying in guests for the weekend. "The chopping of that chopper shuttling in friends had us chopping shots all over the place," the boys report. "Of course, we wouldn't have been nearly as bad if we had been invited to the party!"

The role was eptomized by his horn-rimmed glass-es, which give Caine a look of owlish innocence. "The glasses were my idea," said the actor, 'i knew if the character caught on. I would be closely identified with it. The glasses would give me a gimmick, a trade mark. I could discard them for other roles, and not be so identified.

He collaborated with Sayre in Hindemith's second sonata for cello and piano, a work which begins with a rather wishy-washy Pastorale, but picks up considerably in some variations on a resolutely striding theme, and a granitic concluding Passa-caglia. And he also offered his ethereal, crystalline interpretation of Beethoven's piano sonata opus 110 marred just a trifle in the fugue by that gremlin which comes to all men, memory failure.

In spite of the fascinating combinations of lights, sounds, amplification, and stage movement, and the arena itself, portions of the improvised musical product seemed to me (for the first time in many Davis trips) to develop into monotonous repetition. SI II WAS NOT the case in the written works and it was in them that the devices of the unique theater were best employed.

Larry Austin's "Roma," in world premiere, was performed with each instrumentalist in macabre black attire with a single white greasepaint pseudo-eyepatch. While playing, the musicians walked in slow motion around and along the jutting stage, sometimes pausing in back-to-back jux-taixisition with colleagues; they descended through a trapdoor-like stage floor exit, only to emerge (as from a storm cellar) out of another. Both 17th Century-style performing balconies were used, as as a prerecorded electronic sound tape. Various huge objects of plastic foa inboard were used all evening as music stands, as sound reflectors, as free-suspended inspirations to free expression and (in Austin's work) to catch and reflect the colored spotlights. The musicians, In their wanderings, are thus inspired to play what the LAST 3 WEEKS Tonight at 8:30 p.m.

It's all very highly charged, and Sayre didn't miss a spark.

Yes, we knew he was a master interpreter. Remember his tastefully soulful solo at the Symphony in Strauss' Bourgeoise Gentil-homme? A gem for all time. Another highly estimable performer, pianist Istvan Nadas, had his innings on ULTRA-PAN AVI8ION rl TECHNICOLOR Sayre's By ARTHUR BLOOMFIELD The Kodaly unaccompanied sonata opus 8 is a cellist's dream. It can also be a nightmare if a performer isn't up to its very real technical demands, but no uch situation developed Jast night at the Jewish Community Center. Robert Sayre, the youthful first cellist of Josef Krips' San Francisco Symphony, took on this grand hunk of music and carried it off with nothing short of the biggest league virtuosity.

Not to mention immense sympathy for its Hungarian folk spirit and rhapsodic ruminations. Kodaly has packed a book-full of distinctive sonic effects into his positively orchestral score, but you never have the feeling the music has been visited by gimmicks. Its vibrancy and poetry are too honest for that. THERE'S a rather unfortunate hab of mentioning mm Q1ARIT0N REX HARRISON Kodaly Kodaly in the same breath with Bartok they are, you see, the two Hungarian composers who've really become famous and Kodaly always comes off second best. It's true that he ultimately chose a more conservative path than his countryman, but he carved a career stamped with authority nonetheless.

In any case, no Bartokian could be unsatisfied with the vigor, power and vivid evocations of folk atmosphere which abound in the unaccompanied cello sonata signed by Kodaly. Speaking of Kodaly's "orchestration," the mixture of bowed and plucked sounds is especially rich, notably in the slow movement wherein the intense, sustained-tone melody is etched by strummings suggestive of some rustic zither.
