...Avenue: Rock Hunter's success in making Stay-Put Lipstick, his ad agency's biggest account, stay put. Hunter's own dream of success: to rise from his untouchable caste as TV commercial writer to possession of his own jewel-encrusted key to the executives' washroom. This glorious consummation (duly sanctified by a heavenly choir on the sound track) is realized through Rita Marlowe (Jayne Mansfield), a squealing movie siren noted for her "oh-so-kissable lips" and her favorite boast ("All my lovers and I are just friends!"). In getting Jayne's product endorsement...
...call for help. "We'd be glad to come out.'' he explained. "But those kids out there can fix them." The students now maintain all the school's equipment, have in stalled an intercom system and a special burglar alarm in the boys' washroom to keep young vandals from breaking the ceiling tiles. But more important than any of their projects is the enthusiasm the program has aroused. The students have requested so many scientific books from the University of Florida library that the university has had to put the school on a quota...
...huge hotel who, when he is replaced, believes he has lost his identity. The movie lacks subtitles, and the story-telling comes through picture progression in which the old man himself appears less than his image. You see him pictured in the mirror of the hotel's washroom, and in the imaginings which return to his old post. Unlike The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari where the complex settings were photographed straight-on, the camera work, done by Carl Freund, is essential to the doorman's fantasies. These dreams superimpose the hotel's revolving door or its shadow on his visions...
...Jewel Box Like a Pimple. The preacher who will press the button happily takes time out to escort visitors around his still-unfinished "Landmark for Christ''-into the cylindrical, louvered educational building with its 50 schoolrooms (each with its own washroom), its movie and sound equipment, its $50,000 kitchen ("The women had their way here"), its 500-capacity dining room looking out over the parking lots (675 cars when completed) and outdoor theater (where Miss Oklahoma was picked last month). Pastor Alexander proudly shows off the deeply carpeted little theater-in-the-round, now used by dramatic...
...Pioneer will cost about $95,000-just above the trainman's dream of $1,000 per head, vastly lower than the conventional car figure of $3,800. Budd cut weight with simplified hollow-axle rail truck and wide use of plastics for seats, walls, baggage racks, ceilings, washroom appliances. The company estimates that Pioneer's maintenance costs will be less than 60% of the upkeep for a standard 80-passenger, 65-ton car. One reason: it can be washed inside and out with a fire hose. Budd has run the car 5,000 miles in tests, will ride...
