Except for the single day when the story's shocking surprise ending was being filmed, the sound stages were open to the public, with a sign on the door: "Welcome Proceed At Your Own Risk." On the day they shot the ending this was replaced with one which read: "Sorry No Visitors Today. Too Scarey Inside!" TERRIFYING Barbara Stanwyck finds comfort in the arms of Robert Taylor in this scene from "The Night Walker," starting Wednesday at the Kelso Theatre.

Taylor. (The caps were Concluded Castle's statement: "It's a good way to start a picture!" As it turned out, it was and it was a grand party. As one Hollywood columnist summed it up: "Everyone had a good time. There was no tension. Bob, Ursula and Barbara were friendly, cordial and relaxed, yet all three carried off a conceivably tense situation with easy dignity.

Castle's party nipped in the bud any 'triangle' rumors, provided a wonderful evening for a lot of beautiful people, and, incidentally, garnered a car-load of good publicity for his movie." In "The Night Walker," Taylor plays an attorney whose blind client suspects the lawyer's relationship with his wife, Barbara Stanwyck. When the blind man is killed in an explosion. Taylor's attraction to the widow is tempered with the suspicion that she might have planned her husband's death. But when the widow is haunted by recurrent dreams of an unknown man and glimpses of the husband she believed dead, she turns to Taylor for help, and together they set out to solve the ominous mystery, only to find themselves both endangered by the nightmare or is it only that? Rarely has either talented craftsman tackled so challenging a role, and seldom has any star come up with the poised, en- G. Young was signed for motion pictures by Fox Studios.

After many years on the stage, and a long run on the weekly radio show as the father in "One Man's Family," which originated in New York, the older Young moved his family to the Los Angeles area in 1943. Tony was educated in Hawthorne elementary schools and then went to University High in West Los Angeles. Upon graduation, he entered Los Angeles City College where he majored in play direction at the same time working as a page in Hollywood at the NBC studios. There he joined the experimental actor's workshop, and it wasn't lonp before he signed a contract with Fox for the leading role in "The Alaskans" television series. Since then, he has appeared in almost every television series with a western locale such as "Maverick," "Lawman," "Bronco," "Laramie," and was the star of "The Gunslinger" series.

In "Taggart" he appears for the second time with Dan Dur-yea; the two were together in "He Rides Tall" which also was produced by Gordon Kay and directed by R. G. Springsteen the same team responsible for "Taggart." Also starring with Young and Duryea in the outdoor action drama are Elsa Cardenas, Dick Foran and Jean Hale. 8:50 "BACK DOOR to HELL )Vni 'id Not in years has any casting news out of Hollywood aroused the world-wide excitement elicited by William Castle's signing Robert Taylor and Barbara Stanwyck to co-star in his eerie suspense drama, "The Night Walker," Universal release opening Wednesday at the Kelso Theatre. For two of filmdom's brightest stars it marked the first picture together in many years, and the third of their illustrious careers.

Around the world the press took the occasion to remind its readers that "two of the screen's most popular stars, Bob and Barbara were one of Hollywood's best-known couples until their 11-year marriage ended in divorce in 1951." The fact that since 1954 Bob has been happily married to lovely German actress Ursula Thiess and that Barbara has never re-married inevitably aroused considerable conjecture as (1) how their past personal relationship would affect their professional reunion, and (2) how the present Mrs. Taylor felt about it. By the time he was swamped with newspaper clippings from Boston to Buenos Aires, from Toledo to Tokyo, producer-director Castle, while gratified by the universal interest in his casting coup, decided it was high time to get things in their proper perspective. His solution was, as one observer reported, "a surprising combination of good showmanship and good taste." Castle gave a "Pre-Production party" for Mr. and Mrs.

Taylor, Miss Stanwyck, their friends, studio executives and the press, TV and radio services. To save time replying to the inevitable questions, copies of complete yet concise statements from Bob, Barbara and Castle were available for those interested. Said Taylor's, in part: "Any actor who would turn down a chance to play opposite Barbara Stanwyck would be out of his head Barbara and I have remained good friends. There's no reason why we shouldn't work together. Barbara's quotes included: "I felt the answer to the question of our working together was entirely up to Mr.

The star of Universal's exciting outdoor drama in color, "Taggart," which comes Wednesday to the Kelso Theatre, not only was born to a father who made his living from the stage, radio and later TV, but he grew up in Hollywood and almost all his life, has aimed at the point he now has reached.
