Their selection of the top ten box-office pullers featured male dreamboats of all ages, indicated that teen-agers are calling the moviegoing public's tune, with nary a cinemactress in the top ten for the first time since the Herald started its balloting 26 years ago. Scratched in the past year: Marilyn Monroe and Kim Novak. The new all-male marquee names hailed as dollar signs by exhibitors...
