Ry PRESTON GROVER

MOSCOW (AP) —- The next chief of the Soviet Union sue- ceeding Nikita Khrushchev per- haps is not yet in the presidium. But if he is, it is handsome, wavy-haired Frol Kozlov.

Khrushchev has already pointed to this white - haired,

square-built n as his succes- sor—as of now. Whether that will be true in two or three

years, when Khrushchev is pass- ing into his 70s, is not easy to Ray.

Kozlov is not Khrushchev’s closest friend on the presidium,

~ that strong body of leaders who

run the Communist party: and Russia The premier's closest friend is

Anastas Mikoyan, the old Bol-|

shevik with the b®nt nose who has stood with Khrushchev through thick and thin. Mikoyan with his darting eyes, looks like a orfe-man conspiracy, but he is liked by Westerners because with him they can. discuss im- portant questions on a free- wheeling basis.

STRICT PARTY LINE

Kozlov is not like that. He knows the party line and _his only departure from it during talks with Western diplomats is when he baits them with sly digs about their countries. Koz- lov is one of those curious types who have come up ‘in between the old barricades, fighters such

as Khrushchev and Mikoyan, and. the new cr thé “univer- sity-educated. .

* ‘Kozlov is educated, in the in- tense way many Soviet leaders are educated. That is through technical and party schools and through the hard process of sur-

viving ig the ifght for advance- |

tent. in the party councils. That is a tough school. It has left most of the top Soviet lead- ers without any noticeable sense of humor. A misplaced wise crack can cost @ place on the Presidium. ‘ ~ A sensé of humor has sur- vived with Premier Khrushchev and, with Mikoyan. The recent purge of old Stalin- 4 ists didm’taffect Kozlov. He was ome generation behind. He is now about the age Khrushchev was during the last war.When Stalin was purging the party by

one of the most ruthless jail and |

slaughter programs in Russian history, Kozlov was making his most rapid rise toward the top through the i

party machinery. HI

N.Y. AMAZED BY DREAM CAR

NEW YORK (AP) — New Yorkers’ eyeballs all but pop- ped when they spotted a sub- way car with:

Deep red, plush carpeting on the floors.

Window draperies of red, blue and purple hues.

Vases holding fresh red and white carnations.

Subdued, pastel lighting.

A bar dispensing cham- pagne. ~ -

Beautiful maidens, passing the champagne to passengers.

This was the scene on a “dream car,” hooked into a subway train as a_ pub- licity stunt by the city’s junior chamber of commerce. The idea was to emphasize that people ought to try to keep their subway trains as clean as their living rooms at home, or something like that.

The dream car, however,

[International Crew Works At New Biblical’ Film Story

By EUGENE LEVIN

Althou much of the film has ,been shot ‘in Titanus studios in , italy, all the major outdoor

location in Morocco. About 3, 000 Moroccans were used as ex- tras in spectacular crowd scenes and several thousand Moroccan cavairy men were employed in battle scenes . One reason the movie makers went to Morocco was that they found there a village they con- sidered a real. existing substit- ute for Sodom. without having to resort to the usual papier- mache and plaster sets Consequently,~the city of So- dom, as seen in the picture. ac- tually is Ait-Benhaddou, a forti- fied desert village carved out of the rock of the southern. slopes of the Atlas Mountains some 4,- 000 years ago. The only ‘‘mal® up" applied, to Ait-Benhaddou was the addition of a towered wall at the foot of the village to serve as ‘Sodom’s' gate-
