Sutherland hates. Posing one of his men, the most stupid looking, as a general who, incognito, reviews the troops, is another highly amusing sequence. Ready for the mission, the major and his men get down to the business for which he has trained them. Here, suspense begins to gain momentum until it reaches an almost unbearable pitch. There is humor, too, in this high-tension finale, but little.

The bloody business of blowing up the chateau is at hand and they come through gloriously, and those who do not return die heroes, not criminals. A magnificent sight the explosion is, magnificent for the winning side. DOROTHY EMMERSON is one of the merry madcaps in "The Mad Show" revue reaching its 750th performance Sunday at the New Theatre. New Rule Due On Egg You Spurred by outbreaks of sal monella, a bacterial food poisoning, the Board of Health cleared the way yesterday for enactment of a regulation requiring that broken eggs sold for commercial use be pasteurized and distnbut ed in labeled containers. The new rule scheduled for fi nal action at the board's July meeting would cover broken or cracked eggs culled by egg mer chants when they sort them for sale.

The cracked and broken eggs are sold in bulk liquid or frozen form to food processors for use in such items as desserts, mayon naise and other salad dressings. Last spring many New Yorkers became ill after eating a cold dessert. The Health Department said the illness was caused by salmonella from broken eggs.

Carr and Harris report that the Japanese production of Mame scored a hit at the Umeda Koma Theatre in Osaka, grossing yen for a one-month engagement. The Japanese Di-oducer, Toho Continental, remitted 85,313 to the U. S. producers as their share of the proceeds. Special Guests Producers Shelly Gross and Lee Guber have invited Anthony Tancreto, director of the Weather Bureau at Rockefeller Center, and his assistant, Milton Fayne, to attend the opening of HOTELS RESTAURANTS THE for Broadway.

Orifrinality is the keynote the E. Kathanson story produced by Kenneth Hyman and directed by Robert Aldrich with spectacular effectiveness. An abundance of hilarious humor, in-jetced by Mr. Aldrich, the star, Lee Marvin and the cast, Is a blessed relief from the strain irory details and gTim aspects of war, fought by a mere handful of American on foreign soil. THE FIGHTERS in this ease are not the jrood-lookinjr, ethical GIs of our acquaintance.

They are hardened convicts who have been court-martialed for crimes such as murder, rape and robbery, and are given the chance to redeem themselves by carrying out a near-suicidal mission just prior to the D-Day invasion. The object of attack is a chateau in Normandy, quarters for a large number of high ranking Nazi officers waiting compla cently in luxury for victory over the Allies. The idea is to blow i up the chateau as a moraie weakening gesture. IX COMMAND of this hostile group, men known by number. not by name, is the toughest, most sadistic officer in the United States Army, a Major Keisman, played by Lee Marvin, a natural for the role.

Forced to do the job, the major is given complete authority, no questions asked. Reviewing these criminals taken from a prison in England, the major makes his stand quite clear by announcing his. intentions. Any trouble from them and he will blow their brains out. It appears to be an impossible achievement, whipping this dirty dozen into shape, to make them forget their grievances, to think and act as a unit to be trusted in their mission.

As soon as they learn that the major has faith in their ability, they comply as a whole, doing their utmost to show their gratitude. THE DIFFICULT process Is enlivened by uproarously funny incidents. War games are played unfairly but won from a crack company under command of a colonel whose guts the major Festival will present "An Evening of Yiddish Poetry and Folk Music" at 8 P.M. Monday at the Delacorte Theatre in Cen tral Park.
