...Walls Shook. M-G-M was hopeful that in Actress Schell it had found a dish to tempt the flagging U.S. appetite for films-but was the dish just a little bit too full for the American taste? Director Brooks suggested tactfully that Maria refuse some of those second helpings of Kartoffelklösschen and Sachertorten, and lose a little weight-say, 20 Ibs. Maria agreed, but when she arrived in Hollywood to start shooting, she was as broad as ever. Furthermore, she was dressed like a middle-aged Central European frump.

HOUSING Deep Dish To bring year-around outdoor living indoors. Builder Hillard Man last week showed a basement swimming pool in his new Eden Roc development at Smithtown, Long Island. For an additional $800, Man's new split-levels and Cape Cods ($19,500 to $25,200) will include a 12-by-18 ft. pool.

Last week Patrice came back with her own show looking more like a dish for the gods. The Metropolitan Opera's pinup girl has always cut a lissome figure, and her voice fills with rills and lusty high Fs; away from the mustiness of the Met, on TV she is freer to indulge her self-confessed "innate ham" with quick changes and buoyant tunes.

Cold-turkey talk, served up by World Bank President Eugene R. Black, was the main dish last week for finance ministers of the world's underdeveloped countries. Meeting in Washington at the International Monetary Fund, sister of the World Bank, they heard Black give a polite accounting of the bank's biggest ($332 million disbursed around the globe) year since the Marshall Plan era. But far less polite was Black's accounting of how some of the loans were used...
