Prepares For 'Alice on TV By JACK GAVER NEW YORK (UP)-Stage and screen have had occasion from time to time to boast of glittering all-star casts, but it is doubtful if either ever presented a lineup more solidly packed with important names than television will offer Wednesday night in its ver sion of Alice In Wonderland." Walking into the barn-like rehearsal hall on the second floor of the Bond Building in Times Square these afternoons is to experience a "who's who" of show business come to life. There's Bobby Clark, complete with cigar. And Edgar Bergen, incomplete without his McCarthy Charlie. The wooden lad isn't needed for rehearsals.

James Barton is off in a corner doing a few dance steps just for fun. The fellow with the uptilted nose looks like Jackie Gleasons sidekick and he is Art Carney. Ernest Truex, Blanche Yurka, Arthur Treacher, Arnold Moss, cm: nan (remember vas you dere, Sharlie? Una Connor, Jose E. Marks, Fredd Wayne all are in the room studying scripts. There is even a Broad way producer, a fellow who still acts upon occasion Chandler Cowles.

Also Joey Walsh, a purely TV product, who has sprung up so in the past year that's he's scarce ly a child actor now. And, of course, there's Alice or rather Robin Morgan, the long- tressed blonde who is little Dag-mar on the "Mama" TV program every Friday night. The amazing thing is that all of this wonderful talent which could play anything from bur lesque to bhakespeare at a mo ment's notice was signed on by the Kraft Television Theater for roles that, in most cases, consist of only a few words or a few lines. AD are glad to appear in what is a sort of prestige show, both because it is an adaptation of the Lewis Carroll classic and because it is the seventh anniversary presentation of the oldest program in television. In adapting the famous Carroll stories for television, Jack Roche has crammed in as much of the original as possible with the added touche of Bergen and Charlie accompanying Alice on her adventures through Wonderland.

Doing "Alice" on television in "live" fashion presents extra-ordinary technical problems, especially for the set designer, Duane McKinney. There is the matter, for example, of "shrinking" Alice when she drinks the potion that enables her to enter the Wonderland forest, which in this case is a backdrop 50 feet by 150 feet. McKinney is bringing off this effect by having sets that are identical except for size. Once Alice takes her swig, she must appear immediately in a set that has a 12-foot door, a 10-foot table and a bottle six feet tall to give the impression that she has become tiny. None of the costumes, designed by Bob I'iclntosh, can come off a customer's racks.

These must be. insofar as possible, exact repli cas of those in the drawings John Tenniel made to illustrate the original Carroll works. The sponsor doesn't fancy a raft of com plaining letters from Carroll-Ten- niel fans. Dying Driver Swerves Truck to Avoid Crash BEDFORD, Pa. (UP) Louis Tal- enfield used the last moments of his life today to swerve his truck on the Pennsylvania Turnpike and avoid a headon crash.

The 42-year-old truck driver suffered a fatal heart attack three miles west of the Laurel Hill tunnel. His tractor-trailer swung into the medial strip but Talenfield fought back to return to the highway. The truck stopped after crashing into a guard rail on the right side of the road. "He was dead before he hit the rail," police said. Talenfield, a Pittsburgh resident, was en route to Bedford with a load of freight.

Diet and Pill Are New Ways of Dealing With Disturbed Mind By DELOS SMITH United Press Science Editor NEW YORK (UP) Two new ways of dealing with the disturbed mind were described to physicians today. One was with diet. The other was with a pill.

Dr. Irma Aleshire of Iowa City said some people who imagined they are being crawled over and eaten by bugs lost the delusion when they corrected their faulty diets. It was a distressing phobia, she pointed out. The victims dug into themselves until they bled, pulled out their hair, and boiled their clothes daily, all to fight bugs that weren there. By ordering the kind of high-protein, vitamin-rich diets which cure the nutritional disease, pellagra, she cured four patients of the delusion.

Psychiatry, which focuses on the mind rather than the body, has very little luck with this kind of mental disturbance, she pointed out. Dr. N. William Winkelman of Philadelphia tried the new experimental drug, chlorpromazine, on 142 mental patients. There was no question of cure-but there was spectacular relief.

Dr. Winkelman said that of 67 who had "typical severe anxiety reac tions, 56 showed improvement ranging from moderate to complete relief of symptoms." In some cases it had "an effect similar to frontal lobotomy," that being a controversial surgical interference with brain pathways which takes the mental tension out of some mental patients but pushes them toward a mentally dull, vegetative state. The lobotomy is permanent; the effect of the drug is not. I Winkelman thought it was more! than "merely a chemical re straint." He thought it had a effect on the patient's But! definitely it is no "panacea for all psychiatric ills." But he said it is "especially remarkable in that it can reduce severe anxiety, diminish phobias and obsessions. reverse or modify a paranoid psy chosis, quiet manic or extremely agitated patients, and change the hostile, agitated senile patient into a quiet, easily managed patient.

Lost Child Returned A three-year-old boy was report ed crying and lost in the vicinity of Wyllis and West Third Street at 7:45 p. m. Saturday.
