climaxed the annual picnic. The screen
version Of this ceremony is a faithful
reproduction of the original.
Although Director Loean's budget
had provided for $50 extras to cheer
Kim Novak's browning. he wanted a
much bigger crowd than that. Cannily,
this entire sequence was shot on the first
day on location when over 1000 towns
folk fiocked to the picnic grounds. When
they started drifting out Of camera range,
that great trouper, Rosalind Russell,
seized a microphone and started telling
them one story after another. Every last
soul was thus still on deck when the
technicians and cameramen were ready
to start shooting an hour later.
Tire Baker Hotel in Hutchinson was
headquarters for the Picnic" company
for five weeks. By the end Of that time
Bill Holden. RoZ Russell, Kim Novak,
Arthur O'Connell, Betty Field. Cliff
Robertson, l7-year-old Susan Strasberg
and Verna FELTON, were on first-name
basis with half the county.
As Logan tells il, even the employees
in Charlie Summers huge grain eleva-
tors got to know more about transpar-
ency shots and ciose-ups than how to
store wheat.
The last straw. The final shot of
Picnic" shows a bus carrying the
heroine) gradually overtake a freight
train carrying the hero). Logan shot it
from US. Navy helicopter, with about
a thousand kibitzeTs, suddenly become
camera experts, providing free advice.
Then everybody rode home on the
freight train, which had been specially
rented from the railroad for the occasion.

great American Midwest in as satisfying
fashion as ever I've seen in my life. This

proper setting, Director Josh Logan
took his superb cast to the geographical
center Of the U.S.A. - amidst the wheat
fields and grain elevators of Hutchinson,
Salina. Nickeson, Halstead and Ster-
ling, Kansas.
Josh Logan has been one Of my close
neighbors and friends for many years
now, but never saw him more excited
than when he told me the details of the
making Of Picnic"
Stage star Margalo Gilmore aptly
characterized Picnic" as the kind Of
picture that would make any self-exiled
American abroad make a mad dash for
the first boat headed back to his home
land. 1t was Marsalo's husband, the
late Bob Ross, who discovered how
deeply the people Of Kansas loneed for
live theater. He arrived in Hutchinson
with touring troupe Of "Mr. Roberts
and found the huge auditorium bulging
with customers. The mayor had told
them. This is the first big Broadway
hit to play these parts in years. Do you
want more like it? Then support Mr..
Roberts," The audience cheered itself
hoarse - and when Logan hit town
and called for extras" the population
turned out almost en- masse.

An outdoor living terrace car
be only a fiat. paved surface
suitable for garden furniture,
however, it has greater poten-
tialities if a little imagination
goes into its planning.
Such a terrace can be con-
verted into a colorful patio gar
den at but small cost in both
money and effort.
OF dominance in this plan are
the flower beds. They add color
life and partial Seclusion to give
the picture attractive compost
tional values.
ANIMALS Used
ANIMALS are chosen for the
beds for two reasons-they are
one of the few plants that car
be set out this late in the sea-
son, and no other type of flowers
yields so much bloom with SC
little effort. This is important
here because the flowers are
close to the center of your out
door living and they must be in
continuous bloom.
A stepping-stone path that ties
terrace to an entrance door, a
service walk or other parts OF
the garden integrates the gen.
eral design. breaks the rigid out
lines of the surface and appears
to increase the size, Breaks in
the flower beds also tend to
open up the area, but they still
leave definition that sets the
terrace apart as an individual
feature.
