HOLLYWOOD, Feb. 16.-Pet-
er LaWford's father, 81, 1t. Gen.
Sir Sydney LaWford, who once
objected to his sons acting in
movies but later not only ap-
proved but did a bit of acting
in them himself, died yesterday
after a relapse of flu.
Peter, notified of the death,
was reported flying home from
visit to Honolulu.
Sir Sydney. who retired, much
decorated, after more than 40
years service in the British
army, was an enthusiastic anna
teur gardener and an animal
lover.
His last words. a family friend
said, were a wish that Peter
take care of his cat. Sir Sydney
and his wife, Lady May Lawford,
found the alley creature crying
in a garbage can eight years
ago and took it home. Lady May
asked that friends omit flowers
at the private funeral and con-
tribute to the Good Shepherd
Foundation, which finds homes
for animals.
Born in London, Sir Sydney
Joined the army at II. He served
in the South African war in
1901, receiving the Queens
Medal. His later decorations in
cluded the Croix de Guerre of
France and Belgium, the French
Legion of Honor, the Order of
Leopold of Belgium and the
Order of st. Maurice and St.
Lazarus of Italy. He was
knighted in 1918.
He objected when Peter acted
in several British movies as a
boy, but thought his son might
get the acting bug out of his
system. Later. after world
travels, the family settled in
Florida.
With family funds frozen by
World War II. Peter worked as
parking-lot attendant and
later, in Hollywood, as a theater
usher. Then an agent landed
him a role in Mrs. Miniver''
and his Hollywood career began.
The family moved here in 1910.
In recent years Sir Sydney
tall, dignified. white haired, mus
tached-played bit parts for a
lark in several of Peters films.
He was a barrister in Kitty" a
clubman in 1.-THE Picture of
Dorian Gray" and a general in
''The Rogues' March," In this,
his last picture, he was costumed
as his past self-a British army
officer.
