Ex-Grid Star Is Now A Hollywood Standout

HOLLYWOOD UPI — Producer Aaron Rosenburg Is one movie bigwig who comprehends the delicate art of the care and feeding of movie stars. He's even grown fond of them over the years. The result is that the former USC All-American guard has become one of Hollywood’s most sucessful producers. ‘ This whole town is competing for eight or ten movie stars.” Rosenberg said. “And the only way to get the big ones for a picture is to come up with the right material.” Perhaps the word is out that Rosie likes actors. He recently landed two of the most soughtafter stars in the business. Marlon Brando and Yul Brynner for the same picture, “Morturi.” This week he puts the queen of them all to work. Doris Day in “Do Not Disturb.” The stars can be doubly thankful to Rosenburg. An addition to coming up with attractive scripts, he inaugurated the financial participation deal with an offer of a percentage of the profits in addition to a fat sal-

ary.

“Participation deals never lose money,” the producer said. “They’re the best thing that ever happened to this business. ’ Like many another producer Rosenburg subscribes to the theory that is almost impossible to make a successful movie with unknown performers. Whenever one of his pictures is announced the cast usually is larded with box office names. “There's always a chance to make a successful picture without stars,” he admitted. “But it’s a slim chance, and with the cost of big pictures today you can't afford to gamble huge sums of money on unknowns. The best way to bring in new actors is to put them alongside an established star.”

Football Bonus Hurting Baseball NEW YORK UPI — Hall of Famer Hank Greenburg. one of the greatest sluggers in baseball history, said today that huge bonuses being paid by pro football teams are depriving baseball of some of its best young hitters. “Baseball is turning into a pitchers’ game,” said the black haired. 6-foot, 4-inch former Detroit Tiger great. “Among the reasons are that pitching has become more scientific, the hitters have to contend with day and night ball and difficult travel conditions and managers employ two and three relief pitchers in a game without a second thought. “But another reason is that baseball is losing to many big, strong athletes to football,” added Greenburg, a t w o-time winner of the American League's Most Valuable Player award. “Most of the big, strong athletes — the fellows who would be the Lou Gehrigs or Joe Medwicks of today — are going in for football.” Big Hank said baseball's selfimposed rul" against talking to young high school players is another factor in the loss of talent to football. "Baseball can’t talk to the high school players but the colleges can,” he explained. “The boy goes to college. And the result is that now you see dozens of football players who would have been the big sluggers of today had they gone into baseball.” Noting the current “home run craze.” among young sluggers, Greenberg recalled with a laugh, “I hit 58 home runs in 1938 and the next year was offered the same salary because my runs batted in fell off from 183 to only 146. my doubles from 49 to 23 and my average from .337 to .315. “Nowadays,” he continued, “a guy who hits .250 with 25 homers thinks nothing of ask- | ing for a $10,000 raise.

Iowa Downs Hoosiers 74-68 By United Press International The Indiana basketball team would hate to admit it, but it i looks as if that old song, “Back Home Again in Indiana,” has become the team’s swan song. The fifth ranked Hoosiers, who returned to their home court Monday night after two sucessful road victories, found that their home surroundings weren’s so sweet after all as they lost to the Iowa Hawkeyes 74 to 68 in a crucial Big Ten Conference clash. The loss was a rough one for Indiana to absorb since it dropped the Hoosiers into fourth place in the Conference with a 3-2 mark. Odly enough, Indiana defeated Iowa on the Hawkeye s home court a week

ago.

Monday night's game was all Iowa from the outset, however. The Hawkeyes, hitting a deadly 53 per cent of their shots i n i the first half, grabbed the lead I with barely 11 minutes gone and held it the rest of the way.

Savill, who earlier had gained permission from the United Football League to move his franchise, called him from Florida late Monday and said the team would move. “I think this is one of the biggest things for Fort Wayne, as for as sports go. that has happened in a good number o f years,” Zeis said. “I feel we are getting a good team.” Savill had said earlier the Warriors lost more than $100,000 last year, despite winning the eastern division title. He was disgruntled over the Warrior’s home at Victory Field, primarily a baseball park, and over the lack of cooperation from the city in obtaining offseason jobs for the players. However, at the time, Savill said he would do “everything possible” to keep the Warriors in Indianapolis.

Snowstorm Hinders Race

MONTE CARLO, Monaco, UPI — A raging snowstorm tore through the Alps today and cut the number of cars in the 1965 Monte Carlo rally down from 201 to a penalty-ridden 101. The storm hit the cars : between the check points o f Chambery and U r i a g e and ! played havoc with driving conditions. Snow drifts several feet high blocked the roads and a | strong wind blew snow onto the 1 windshields of on-coming cars. As the starters from Minsk, j Warsaw and Stockholm passed Chambery first they benefitted from the best conditions, and ! the best-placed cars at Uriage were the Stockholm trio of last year's winner Paddy Hopkirk and Henry Liddon in a BM? Cooper, T i m o Makinen and Paul Easter of Finland in a BMC Cooper and Pat MossCarlsson and Swede Elizebeth Nystron in a Saab No. 49. One of these cars looked likely to win the rally if it managed to reach Monte Carlo intact this morning. Among the stars to fall out in the mountains was Swede Bo Lungfeldt, who placed second last year, and Brittian’s Anne Hall, a past winner of the ladies’ cup.

That^s Pin Action! Vic Inman proudly boasts’ a high 290 game at the Varsity Lanes in league competition last night. Vic’s high game came in the first of three games for the night. His first frame tallied 9 pins and a spare. The remainder of the game displayed all strikes (that’s eleven in a row). To top it off Vic’s first ball of the second game shot into the pocket for another beautiful strike which gave him 12 consecutive strikes. That’s pin action!
