AP Broncho Billy Anderson, one of tho first stars of the movies, will rid 1 again this time as a producer vl television westerns. Anderson was the rtar of first big hit, "The Creat Train Robbery," in 1903.

Said his longtime manager, Herman Budan: "Since Billy was around when movies were born, he wanted to get in on video in its infancy." As president of Progressive Pictures, Anderson intends to revive his series, "The Old Snakeville," and such charracters as Alkali Ike, Mustang Pete, Slippery Slim and Two Gun Annie. "The series will be comedy westerns, designed to bring back the old fashioned belly laugh," said Budan. "We originated the stagecoach, the holdup and the fall over the cliff. They're doing the same tings today. Of course we had no singing cowboys in those days of silents.

But we'll keep up to date in our new pictures and let our cowboys sing." He replied that Bronco Billy made a picture a week for 376 weeks. In one film, Billy himself played all the characters by means of trick photography. Eleanor Parker is the latest to part with Warners. Others who have left the lot in the past year or so are Bette Davis, Jack Carson, Alexis Smith, Dane Clark, Edmund O'Brien, Wayne Morris. Viveca Lindfors, Andrea King, Bruce Bennett, Jan is Paige, Ann Sheridan, etc.

Maybe they should call the town Dunkirk instead of Burbank. Robert Young hopes he will reach an agreement with RKO on his with drawal from "Story of Divorce." If not, he faces three possible suits. He agreed to the picture, but claimed the last script rewrite diminished his role and made it Bette Davis' picture. Gene Tierney's dress designing hus There are five or six pictures about protestantism in the Hollywood mill. Producers are realizing that this vast field has been too long neglected Jack Beutel is none too happy about his billing on "The Outlaw" re release.

After all, he does play the leading character of Billy' the Kid Two big record clicks coming up are Frankie Laine's "Cry of the Wild Goose" and Dinah Shore's "So Nice to Have a Man Around the House." Capsule review "The Third Man" (Korda) is a splendid example of why the British excel at the mystery melodrama. Its stars are U. S. made Joseph Cotton, Valli, Orson Welles and its location is postwar Vienna. But the mood and characters have a fine English quality of restraint.

Credit goes to Carol Reed, best of the English directors. The score, played by a single zither, is much more effective than the usual backgrounds by 90 musicians. ORDER SPEED UP PRAGUE (AP) Women officials of the Czech Communist dominated trade unions have been given greater tasks to bring production up to snuff in 1950. The trade unions decided recently to a.sk women members to get more of their numbers in the nationalized industries and to try to occupy important posts.

7. W) The Republicans apparently have hit on a sure fire way to get out crowd for a political rally. All you do is: Put on an old fashioned box supper, featuring three pieces of fried chicken, some potato salad, coffee and a roll wearing a small American flag.

The box supper was the first of a nationwide program of box suppers. It's all a part of a whipping up en thusiasm campaign and the annual tribute to the first Republican president, Abraham Lincoln.

Even the oratory, which was broadcast nationally, had a somewhat different touch. Instead of the customary one or two big oratorical guns, the GOP split it 20 ways, with each speaker limited to approximately 45 seconds. I won't go into details, but this is the gist of what they said: The Republicans are red hot for Republicans, and they don't give a hoot for a certain other party.

All seemed unusually harmonious, and I ran into only one jarring note. Two characters got to arguing over the same chair, and one snarled: "Who do you think you are.

P) District Attorney Clyde Shumaker said a 14 year old boy was left alone to care for a 75 acre farm when his parents moved to town to take jobs in a bakery. The parents, Clayton and Susanna Ames, were jailed yesterday after pleading innocent to charges of mistreatment of a minor child. Insisting the son, Clayton, is 16 rather than 14.

Shumaker said his investigation disclosed this story: The parents moved to a rented apartment near a bakery where they obtained jobs, taking with them two daughters, aged three and 12. Clay ton, was left alone on the farm except for weekends when the rest of his family rejoined him.

For the last eight months, the boy washed very rarely, never cleaned the farmhouse, and ate little, some times taking ketchup sandwiches to school, School teachers said they once gave the youth a bath and added that he had not had haircut since his parents left The boy and his sisters were placed in custody of probation officers. Mrs. Ames, protesting her arrest, said: "I don't know what I'm here for. Someone ought to call President Truman and get him to help me. I haven't committed any crime." 1 AGREEMENT MADE BY WARRING FACTIONS BATON ROUGE, Feb, 7.
