Chances are you wilrfind the great majority has gone "the character way the real Mexican way," driving south through the villages and lesser known areas, stopping at little out-of-the-. way spots, generally savor ing the sights and sounds" of the rural reaches, accept Ing the discomforts and inconveniences good natured-ly as part of getting close to the real Mexico. This is fine. To the traveler who Is Inclined toward roughing it more power. There does exist however, the other school to whom traveling first cabin is more important than absorbing atmosphere.

Wesfern Airlines Fiesta Flight to Mexico City is co A tall, dashing man with curly brown hair, wearing a short white kirtle and laced scarlet boots, sat beside her. He was identified for me as Carlo Giustini, who was playjng Messalina's favorite boy friend, an Imperial Palace guardsman. Tonini said the picture was budgeted at a little less than $1 million; that the outdoor scenes were finished, some with 500 horses and riders; that Emperor Claudius was being acted by SpiroFocas of the Italian stage; and that the director, Vittorio Cottafavi, was a specialist in historical films, the most recent of which were "Revolt of the Gladiators" and "The Legend of Cleopatra," the latter with Linda Cristal. Cottafavi, slim and cigar-smoking, ordered "Silencio" and "Azione." Two dozen people fled from Messalina's bedroom dragging makeup valises with them. Miss Lee and Giustini began a two-minute scene with a long embrace andx several lines of dialogue.

I was surprised to hear them recite in English, but was told that the movie is being made in two languages to facilitate exportation to the U. S. I made my way out and stopped at a large restaurant for a cup of expresso and a chat with a group of toga-clad extras who told me they earned the equivalent of S4 a day.

This flight, in itself, originates in Lot Angeles but the connecting plane from San Francisco, for those fortunates leaving from here, is the Hunt Breakfast Flight During your hour and a half aloft, you are served a complete breakfast and, In addition, select assorted breakfast meats from a cart the stew ardess wheels from seat to seat The hour layover in Los Angeles Aallows enough time to check your luggage, clean up any customs points and phone the aunt you haven't seen since the war. Take off for Mexico is at 10 a. m. The first class as pects of this trip become apparent as San Diego passes below. One of the stewardesses appears your seat and Inquires, happily, if you would care for some champagne.

If you would, it's ice cold and seconds are de rigeur. A hint based on experience: The closer to the service area you are seated, the more frequently the stew ardess passes bearing champagne to those farther fore and aft and well, a logical conclusion may be drawn. The delicious steak lunch may be accompanied, at your choice, by more champagne or a choice of cock tails, seconds again 'graciously proffered. By the time the luncheon trays are picked up, a delightful sense of well being is very noticeable throughout the cabin. A siesta is a logical progression; however, the country passing below is interesting enough to keep the first timer alert By following the flight line printed on the full-color map furnished each passenger, you are able to locate your exact position at almost any time.

The northern area of Baja California is, from the air, the nearest thing to nowhere we've ever been fortunate enough to fly over. The color comparison of the deep blue gulf and the coffee-with-cream desert is startling, if a bit frightening. As the flight proceeds inland, the level of the terrain rises and becomes, by degrees, greener and greener. By the time the plateau area, on which Mexico City is located, comes into view, a com plete transformation is apparent, the browns having changed to unearthly greens, the rocks and 3and having given way to vegetation as far as the horizon on all sides. The rainfall here occurs mostly during the summer, the time of our trip, and being quite heavy at times, leaves intermittent rivers, rivulets, lakes strewn about the landscape.

Everything- is green, green, moist and green. Five-thirty is landing time, though you've crossed a time line and are now on Mountain Time, so the trip actually consumed only six and one-half hours. Mexico City is spectacularly situated at an elevation of over 7,000 feet, yet lies in a bowl-like formation of encircling mountains. This makes the descent to the airport a majestic swoop, from complete rurality to a landing in one of the world's truly cosmopolitan cities.

There are about two dozen such in door stages at Cinecitta and beyond them, stretching toward the hills of Latium, is an infinite plain for outdoor filming.

I could see a Moorish fortress next to a red-tiled Sicilian village and a gigantic brilliant-blue backdrop sky, built on steel girders, against a paler horizon. Cinecitta seemed to be celebrating the glories of ancient Rome. As I approached my destination, I noticed various buildings marked with the names of films In production, among them 'The Bachanals of Tiberius" and "Carthage in Flames." Centurions, patricians, slaves and handmaidens strolled around in frightening crowds. In the "Messalina" building, I was greeted by producer Renato Tonini, who told me that Messalina, third wife of Emperor Claudius, was notorious for her profligacy, wicked ambition and startlingly nu- merous love affairs right under her husband's nose. Tonini said the movie treated several of her romances and that the lady had a nasty habit of order ing most of her lovers executed after she was through with them.

The set we stood in, an elegant series of palace halls and chambers, was sturdily constructed, with black-and-white terrazzo floors, simulated marble pillar a and intricately sculpted walls. Beyond a steaming pool, Messalina herself, or rather Belinda Lee, lay stretched out on a gold bed covered with a lime green spread. She was barefoot, wore a filmy lime green gown and was busy combing her long hair while two studio maids attended her with mirrors and powder puffs. 4 FROM MIAI 2 OVIRNIG Ljja-ai ajjaj aj-a-aj jafa-a-, VBV1a-a-a-a-a- MIAMI (STARTING NEW SERVICE OVERNIGHT Mondavi far YBMMtyMwUb faratyHiatUlfil fr cay aaaiatr af 21 liraa aaatrM Tot moat txdttag gift yeqVt tra given!
