Anatomy Film,
Author Sued

CHICAGO. July 18 (AP).-
A Michigan woman and her
daughter have filed a SO million
suit charging that the best
selling novel, Anatomy of a
Murder" and the movie based
on the book invaded their pri-
vacy.
The suit was filed by Mrs.
Hazel A. Wheeler, At, and her
daughter, Terry Ann Cheno-
weth, 18. of Three Rivers,
Mich. Defendants are Dell
Publishing Co.. Inc, which pub
lished the novel by former
Judge John D. Voelker under
the pen name Of Robert Traver,
and Columbia Pictures Corp,
which released the movie STAR
ring James Stewart, Lee
Remick and Ben Gazzara.
Z
The suit claims that Mr..
Voelker, in his novel, inter-
wove fact and fiction in such
way as to make them in
distinguishable, and that Mrs.
Wheeler and her daughter have
become identified with the fic-
tional characters, to the loss
of their good regulations.
Mrs. Wheeler claims the
novel was taken from the ac-
tual trial of an Army lieuten-
ant who was charged with the
fatal shooting of her husband,
Maurice (Mike) Chenoweth. in
their tavern in Big Bay, Mich,
July 81. 1852.
The lieutenant, Coleman Pc
terson, who was stationed near
Big Bay, was acquitted in Mar
quette County (Mich) Circuit
Court.
Both the fictional and real
life trials occurred on Michi-
gan'S Upper Peninsula. In both
the actual and flctional Incl
dents the shooting occurred be-
cause the lieutenant thought
the tavern owner had raped
the serviceman's wife, said Mrs,
Wheeler.
The movie was filmed in and
near the Lumberjack Tavern.

Lee Meredith, Washington
soprano we'll known for her
work in recital. oratorio and
as a member of the Mozart
Trio, gave a recital yesterday
at the Foundry Methodist
Church, which regularly hears
her as soprano Of the church's
quartet.
Miss Meredit's program was
taxing. brilliant and, for the
most part, we'll sung. 1t was
built on conventional lines: a
bow to the 18th century, a
French group, a brace of
operatic airs and a group of
trash. She was at her best in
the Mozart aria, "Voi che
sapete." impeccable in style
and lovely in sound, and in
Paladilhe's Psyche"
Her voice is big, pure and
we'll supported. The excel
lence of her high register leads
her into the trap of exploiting
it almost continuously. I felt
that the Bach song and "Apres
un reve," for example, would
have been more effective a
half-step or even a step lower.
She also has a few manner
isms that she could profitably
spare; the business of raising
and lowering her clasped hands
to illustrate the emotional
power of the song would, I am
sure, vanish after five minutes
in front of a mirror. Also, she
has no physical need, and Ger
tainly no artistic reason, for
tenderizing some of her high
tones by sliding up from below
This is ordinarily the sign of a
poor ear or insecure produc-
ton, and I don't believe she has
either difficulty. Logically, slid
ing up parallels the tender
hearted old maid that had her
dogs tail docked an inch at a
time so it wouldn't hurt so bad.
I was most favorably i'm
pressed by the work of the &C
companist, although she had to
deal with a perfectly dreadful
Observation-Disclosures tune, with
a splintered soundboard and
with hammers either complete
ly worn out or in urgent need
of voicing. Surely a better in
strument will be found for fu-
ture recitals.

Mr.. Braunlich, one of our
most, intelligent and adventur-
Gus local artists, was in excel
lent form, as was his skilled
partner at the keyboard, Miss
Bussell.
The recital closed with a
reading of the leisurely Brahms
G major sonata, in which Mr.
Braunlich and Miss Bussell
demonstrated that with love
and musicianship even this
composer could refresh the
spirit despite the blazing mid
summer sun.

The Salmaggi Opera wound
up its season at the Carter
Barron last night with Verdi's
most popular spectacular,
Aida" (Tonight there will be
a repeat performance of Ma
dana Butterfly" which was
rained out last tuesday,
Aida" is a great opera, but
a very curious one. Unlike
many others. I myself find
little in it that presages the
late Verdi of "Otello" and
"Falstaff." 1t is primarily a
pageant, a show for the eyes.
In a few spots, for example the
Aida -Amneris duet, the music
is as impressive as its reputa-
ton would lead one to suspect,
but Celeste Aida" and Ri
lorna vincitor" have neither
the grace and dramatic ap-
propriateneSs of the best of
"Traviata" nor the power and
perfection of the best of
"Otello."
The. Salmaggi company tried
to do justice to the spectacular
element Of the show on a small
budget, but it was not remark
ably successful. A ballet and
large chorus, in addition to the
characters of the drama, make
quite crowd on the stage, anc
if 1t is not very adroitly direct
ed the crowd becomes simply q
mob. Movement is as impor-
tant as color.
The singing was highly
mixed. Herva Nelli has a voice
of beautiful timbre, but she
uses it much too freely, I think
for Verdi, with scoops and un-
seemly dynamic vagaries. Irene
Kramarich is very good Am
neris, true and musical. The
most memorable singing of the
messenger, sung by Howard
Fried. AS actor and singer, Mr.
Fried was able to make some
thing genuine out of nothing
while many of the cast found
it difficult to make even the
most dramatic lines come alive.
The Amonaasro of Robert Mer-
rill. for example. Mr.. Merrill
sings very beautifully, very cor
rectly, but he generates no ex-
element.

Clark Gable Dies
OF Heart Attack

HOLLYWOOD, Up - Clark
Gable, king of Hollywood, died
Wednesday night from a heart at
tack in Hollywood Presbyterian
Hospital.
He had been in the hospital
since Nov when a heart attack
felled the husky, 59-year-old actor
at his suburban Encino ranch.
Ironically, death came after his
best day since that first attack.
He had eaten heartily at dinner,
then chatted happily with his
wife.
When Kay, his fifth wife, no.
ticed him doing again, she re-
tired to her room across the hall.
She was barely settled when she
heard the nurse cry: 'Come
quick"
Thus ended the 30-year reign
of the king of Hollywood. Sadly,
he never will see his first child
due in March.
Gable had no previous history
of heart trouble when the coro-
nary thrombosis hit him.
Gable was admired and envied
by men and adored by women.
He once said he had received
5000 marriage proposals from
women fans.
And that was years ago. His
popularity never diminished de-
spite a series of bad pictures after
World War II - pictures that
would have killed off any other
star in the business.
Gable was born Feb. l, 1901, in
Cadiz, Ohio, the son of an oil
] worker. He knocked about as
farm boy, oil field worker and
rubber plant employee. Then he
took job as backstage call boy
in a touring stock company.
From then on, he was an actor,
touring the country with stock
companies.
The depression ended the era
of the patent-haired lovers of the
screen and spawned the Gable
era. He was suggested to Louis B.
Mayer as ideal for the gangster
role in "a Free Soul" starring
John Barrymore and Norm a
Shearer.
In the movie Gable slapped
Miss Shearer, one of Metro-G Gold
wyn-Mayer's top feminine stars.
"The reaction was astounding"
said one MGM executive. en-
stead of the letters of protest we
expected, women by the thou
sands wrote in that they would
like to be slapped around by
Gable"
Thus started the kings reign in
Hollywood.
