Something nice to (Arlene Font anna) on the remember. Mb COLUMBIA PICTURES PRESENTS cncDonToniin nnnn nnnmn knew this upset my father and grandmother. Now, I realize, marriage may be silly but it isn't obsolete." I don't believe for a single minute that A. who insists he did, saw this sign in a Cairo hat shop: "Try Our Turban Renewal Plan." Don't look for "Forty Carats," Julie Harris' Broadway hit, here next season unless producer David MenicK decides to send out a second road company. The original is good for at least another year, maybe more, in New Y'ork, and and the National Company, starring Barbara Rush, will be settling down in Chicago on October 13 for a run that should go for nine months or longer.

All of which probably means Pittsburgh won't be getting this very funny comedy until 1970-71 at the earliest. That recent revival of the Ben Hccht-Charlcs MacArthur newspaper play, "The Front Page," has turned out to be a bonanza for Tom Atkins, the young Pittsburgh actor. At first it was to have stayed only a month in New York, then the engagement was extended another month and now the production, with the same cast, headed by Robert Ryan, as Walter Burns, the managing editor, and Bert Convy, as Hildy Johnson, the star reporter, is being taped for television (90 minutes) in the fall. Xerox will be the sponsor but the network hasn't been set yet. With "The Front Page" out of the way, Mr.

Atkins expects to spend the remainder of the summer in stock. A note from Henny Young-man in Las Vegas: "I know you'll be happy to hear that I'm now 30 pounds slimmer, thanks to my wife, who's such a lousy cook she can't even dial Kentucky Fried Chicken." Perhaps you noticed that paper commercial during the Apollo 11 television coverage, the one with the girl swimming, then sticking her head out of the water and delivering the sales spiel. The girl is Ali MacGraw, who makes her movie debut in the Chatham Cinema's click, "Goodbye, Columbus." The commercial was probably done after the picture was but before the picture was released. Otherwise, Miss MacGraw's price would no doubt have been prohibitive. The $14 million Julie Andrews musical, "Star," which didn't do so well in its limited road-show bookings, here and everywhere else, has been withdrawn from circulation in fact, it was withdrawn a month ago and 35 minutes have been cut from the movie prior to its going back into release in October.

At that time, "Star" will be re-titled "Gertie Was A Lady" (after the late Gertrude Lawrence, whom Miss Andrews portrays) and 20th Century-Fox will give it a brand new advertising campaign. The picture played the Manor locally earlier in the year but never got off the ground. The studio feels that the re-editing has "basically made a new movie out of an old one."

At any rate, whatever future the CLO has, that future will definitely not be at the Arena. Among the amusing gifts Don Brockrtt took home with him over the week-end from the Allegheny General Hospital, where he underwent leg surgery 10 days ago, the prizewinner came from Karen and Richard Gross, of Ben Gross' restaurant, where Don's all-girl revue, "You Get the Show," is presently playing: A rrutch painted royal blue and attached to it (1) a rear view mirror; (2) a bicycle horn that beeps; (3) a searchlight in working order; (4) a jump rope; (5) a basket containing booze and glasses; (6) a Pennsylvania license plate with Don's name on it, and at the bottom of the crutch for extra speed (7) a roller skate.

No, Mrs. B.R., Molly Picon didn't play the Jewish mother in the original Broadway production of "Come Blow Your Horn" (the role Sylvia Sidney currently has in the Neil Simon comedy at the Nixon), she was only in the screen version. The part was acted on the New York stage by the late Pert Kelton, who was. you may remember, Jackie Glea-son's first wife in "The Honey-mooners." Not too long ago Michael Same was a popular actor and recording star in his native England. Then he turned writer-director and last year turned out the widely-praised and highly-successful British picture, "Joanna." Now he'i in Hollywood, where Mr.

Same has Just finished the ncreenplay of Gore Vidal'i "Myra Breckinridge" and will direct Raqucl Welch in the picture for 20th Century-Fox. Has anybody else noticed how much Catherine Deneuve, the French actress who co-stars with Jack Lemmon in "The April Fools" at the Fulton, looks iike Grace Kelly did when she was making movies? The Cleveland papers Insist the marriage is only a matter of weeks. Perhaps a couple of months at the most. But in Hollywood, Pat Breslin, the television actress who is featured on the "General Hospital'' soap opera, has been telling her fellow-players only that she may-not will, just may be departing that show shortly to become Mrs. Art Modell, wife of the owner of the Cleveland Browns.

Out on the West Coast, the David Hedisons have just cradled a bahy girl.

The proud father, who had a long run in "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea." was Al Hedison when he arlcd for Carl Low and Clay Flagg at the White Barn Thea-er here a dozen summers or so ago, and his wife, Bridget, is a former London model. Famous Last Words, from Jane Fonda (who once insisted "marriage is in the current Redbook magazine: "I vowed I wouldn't get married until someone gave me one good reason to. No one ever did but I got married anyway. It was for social reasons. Roger Vadim (the director) and I hd been living together for a couple of years, and I Honest Answer Jason Robards, an ordinary seaman with the Navy at Pearl Harbor at the beginning of World War II, is now playing at Army general in'Tora!
