Susan Strasberg, whose father, Lee heads the Actors Studio, once pointed to an ironic twist in having ready access to people with pull. When your parents are theatre professionals, he said, others "are apt to pat you on the head and say 'Go along dear'. Win recognition Among those who have attained public recognition are Miss Fonda, and her brother, Peter; Judy Garland's daughter, Liza Minelli; the two daughters of Sir Michael Redgrave, Vanessa and Lynn; and James MacArth-ur, the son of Helen Hayes.

Teen-age star Hayley Mills already rivals her father, John, in popular appeal. Toronto born Raymond Mas-sey is another father with two solidly established offspring to carry on family tradition, Anna and Daniel. A number of screen queens have children bidding for attention with recent debuts, including Maureen O'Sullivan (her girl is Mia Farrow); Ingrid Bergman (Pia Lindstrom); Maureen O'Hara (Bronwyn Fitz-Simons; Loretta Young -(Judy Lewis). Also represented in the second generation are the children of Ann Sothern, Joan Bennett, Ann Shirley, Thelma Ritter and Gale Storm. Male stars are equally well represented note the children of Mickey Rooney (Tim), John Carradine (David), Claude Rains (Jennefer), Ray Heatherton (Joey), Er-rol Flynn (Sean), Robert Montgomery (Liz), Jackie Gleason (Linda), William Holden (Virginia) and Bob Hope (Linda).

Ill at ease On her first few days of filming, Julie confides she was ill at ease.

"I had play ed for so long to a live audi ence, I had come to rely on their reactions to stimu late my performance. That rapport was missing on a sound stage and in the beginning I was filled with doubts and fears. 'Per haps I'm just not coming I thought." Her anxieties were soon quelled when Disney dropped in for a set visit and was highly enthusiastic in his praise of her work. This re assurance helped put her at ease and as the days went by she grew more accustomed to this strange new me dium. "I always had a secret de sire to make a film" Julie confides, "but I felt that I should wait for the right role before taking the plunge.

That role came along in Mary Poppins and now I'm glad I waited." Now that Mary Poppins is completed and awaiting release, Julie now looks back with fond memories. "It was a wonderful experience. Making a movie is not only exciting but gratifying. If you fluff a line or you aren't happy with a scene, you can always do it over again and again until you feel you've done your best. This is something you can't do on stage or TV.

Once the scene is played, it's over, good, bad or indifferent." "Just listen to me," she concludes with a twinkle in her bright, blue eyes. "I'm talking like an old pro." Filmed in brilliant Technicolor and based on the Mary Poppins books by P. L. Travers, Mary Poppins also stars Dick Van Dyke, David Tomlinson and Glynis Johns. Robert Stevenson directed the Disney production, co -produced by Bill Walsh, for Vista release.

Readings from O'Casey NEW YORK Two dramatic readings based upon autobiographical books by Sean O'Casey are to be revived for consecutive engagements at Greenwich Village's Theatre DeLys. Jessie Royce Landis is to star in "I Knock at the Door" and Peggy Wood in "Pictures in the Hallway." Both stagings will be directed by Paul Shyre, who wrote the adaptations which have had previous successful runs. By William Glover Associated Press staff writer NEW YORK Sons and daughters of stars are coming on strong in show business. Trying to follow in Mom or Dad's footsteps if Mom or Dad cavort in the limelightis nothing new. Stage history is studded with Booths, Trees, Barrymores and Drews.

But there has probably never been such a deluge of second generation hopefuls as now. Some" proudly use such familiar names as-Massey, Gleason, Carradine, Rooney and Redgrave. Others, bent on recognition without any borrowed cachet of senior fame, mask their identity behind such perfectly proper family other names as Lindstrom, Farrow, FitzSim-mons Minelli and Lewis. Every one of them vows determination to make the grade without trading on the boon of birth. Some resisted parental objections, others assert a famous relation can perversely prove a handicap to opportunity.

Jane Fonda, for example, disavowed any smidgin of aid from her father, Henry, Entertainment Directory BRITANNIA: "Fail Safe" plus "The Quick Box or ice opens at 7.00.

M3k I Vivacious and talented Julie Andrews, who gained stardom through her exciting performances in My Fair Lady and Camelot on Broadway and the London stage, makes her screen debut in Walt Disney's sparkling musical-fantasy, Mary Poppins, and emerges as one of Hollywood's brightest new stars. Julie, who had literally grown up on the stage and had made numerous television appearances, looked toward her first appearance before a movie camera with some trepidation. "Frankly I was petrified at the thought," she recently reflected.

"When Mr. Disney asked me to play Mary Poppins I was so flattered, so excited, I forgot to ask about a screen test. Afterwards, I began to worry. I'd known actresses who were lovely on stage and off, but when they stepped in front of that camera lens, they photographed miserably. Mr.

Disney never mentioned a test and finally I shrugged and thought, if he's not worried why am On the second day of filming, Julie dashed off to a studio projection room with the director and cameraman to view the previous day's rushes. Expecting the worst, she was pleasantly surprised. "At least, I looked like myself," she medestly added. "Perhaps a little better than I had anticipated, to give proper credit to such experienced people as our cameraman, the electricians, my make-up man and hairdresser.
