Leading Czech
Curfoonisf Is On
The Downgrade
By JOHN FIEHN

by JUHN FtEHN
PRAGUE, Czechoslovakia APP
The Walt Disney of the Commun-
list world appears to be slipping in
to oblivion.
Informants claim that Jiri TIN
| Ra, creator of the world famous
Czech puppet. movies, is being side
tracked by the country's Communist
rulers.
And officials admit that the As
year old Trnka is pulling out of the
film business to concentrate on i'll.
ustrating fairy tale books.
Persons who know the heavy mu-
stached puppet film artist say TIN
kas troules stem from the fact
that he won't inject politics into his
works.
81 can only do what / believe
in" friends quote him as having
told officials.
Trnka, painter. stage designer and
book illustrator of considerable sta
nding, entered films in 1915.
Three years later he scored his
first major hit with a filmed in
depreciation of Hans Christian An
derson's THE Emperor and the
Nightingale" and THE Czech Year
which received gold medal as the
best puppet film at the 194S Venice
film festival.
In all. he produced 10 puppet fill
ms, including THE Good Soldier
Schwejk," depictin the humorous
exploits of an Austrian soldier in
World War l. one of his best full
length puppet features.
Trnka, his close friends say, has
been inspired in a way by Walt
Disney whom he admires as the
greatest cartoon film maker of all
time.
but | wanted to be different from
Disney" he is quoted by friends.
Il wanted to go more into depth,
| wanted to be more plastic than
cartoon. Cartoons are not as lively
as puppets"
Communist Czechoslovakia ope-
rates four puppet film studios. Tn
ka is nominal head of one of them
but has been unofficially succeeded
by HRS pupil. Stanislav Latal.
Latal calls Trnka undoubtedly
the best puppet film producer we
ever had" But he will not COM
ment on reports that his teacher
is being cold shouldered by the
Communists.
Western informants say that TIN
ka. who likes good wines, beer and
an occasional slivovic the strong
plum brandy is too famous for the
Communists to harm.
But, these informants say, since
he is also very outspoken in his
criticism, the authorities keep him
out of the limelight as much as
possible.
Authorities approached with re-
quests for an interview with the
greatest puppet film maker behind
the Iron Curtain give negative re-
plies, explaining:
"Trnka isn't well; you don't want
to see him while he's ILL.," And that's

When you're "middle-aged,"
you've lived only about half
your life-the difficult half.
AS a child you've done all
that schoolwork; as a youth
you've had all the wing
pains: you had to find your
self" and then find your place
in life. AS a young adult you
had to make a career, found
a home, start a family.
If you've done a good job,
you are about to be free to
reap your reward. You are APP
preaching the bonus years, the
pay-off for all your labors. Be
ing alive is always wonderful,
but you know and I know that
in some of those early strug-
giles life can be mighty hectic;
now you can relax and enjoy 1t.
One large obstacle you have
to overcome is propaganda, q
growing collection of a dult
fairy tales that glorify youth
out of all proportion. Youth is
fine-for the young. But it is
also full of problems, chal-
lenges and Illustrations.
The propaganda that por-
trays youth as a period of
idyllic JOY is belied by most

Government accountants say
failure of the Army, Navy, Air

such things as the color of
khaki and the width of a belt
loop is costing the Government
millions of dollars.
In a report yesterday on the

million is being wasted an

The Washington area is al

Physicians, who have noted

Drug companies, basing their

these groups, however, have not

Plans for a meeting of senior
