Scale Model of Dodger Stadium
To Be Shown at Bank of America
Baseball fans who can't make it to the opening Dodger series next week can get a preview of what's in store this season for them by visiting the South Anaheim branch of Bank of America.
A scale model of the new Dodger Stadium in Chavez Ravine will be on display beginning Tuesday (April 10) in the lobby of the branch at 1126 S. Los Angeles St.
Branch manager C. E. Buck" Schueller points out that this will be the model's first public showing in Anaheim, and said Dodger officials told him it is the last time the model will be on display.
Created by Mervyn LeRoy and presented by him to Dodger President Walter O'Mailey, the model will give fans an idea of many of the unique features offered by the 56,000-seat Stadium. It will show an unobstructed view from every seat, with no pillars, corners or blind spots. Also, fans will see six front rows of seats, the new dugout boxes, and the fountain that will light up when a Dodger hits a home run.
Also shown is part of the terraced parking area, with lots at varying elevations at the same level as the fans' seats so that all walking to and from the stadium will be horizontal.
Schueller said everyone, customer or not, is welcome to view the model during banking hours, which is arium model are welcome to use the bank's parking lot next to the branch.

PICK YOUR PATH — They say "all roads lead to the stadium" on opening day of the baseball season, so this is the picture as it will be next Tuesday when the Los Angeles Dodgers open at their new Chavez Ravine Dodger Stadium. Automobile Club of Southern California suggests, for inbound traffic on Santa Ana Fwy., travel north on Golden State Fwy. to the Stadium Way off-ramp (shown at top of map), turn left on Riverside Dr. and fellow signs to the stadium. The Daily News suggests you clip this map and keep it handy for ready reference during the season so you can "pick your path" for the games.
Los Angeles Gets Set for Dodger Stadium Opening
Touched off by opening of the new multi-million dollar Dodger Stadium Monday, Los Angeles all orbit into a two-week Baseball Fiesta. Included in the gala schedule special events will be Grand opening Day ceremonies in the stadium; "Miss Angel" and Miss Dodger" contests; and special Chinese, Japanese, Pan-American, veterans and kids nights.
From the April 9 Grand Opening to April 15, the motif will be welcome Dodgers," and from then through April 21 "Welcome Angels."
Both teams will play their home games in the spectacular new park, America's finest, the Dodgers by right of ownership and the Angels under a long term lease.
During the first phase of the dedication observance, the Angels will be playing ball 'back East,' but they will be represented at the ceremonies by their president, Robert O. Reynolds, and by Gene Autry, co-owner.
National Baseball officials who are coming here to participate include Commissioner Ford C. Frick and National League President Warren C. Giles.
Highlighting the Monday Grand Opening will be an introduction of the Dodger players followed by their first public workout on their new home field.
Preceding this, starting at noon, there will be a picnic luncheon in the stands with community singing, entertainment, addresses by sports and civic celebrities, and patriotic ceremony.
A similar celebration will be held to Los Angeles for their first game of the season here the following night.

the opinion of discriminate movie-goers, will be the successes.
I am not trying to say that "El Cid", "Cleopatra" and "State Fair" will not be enjoyable pictures. Comics are often enjoyable to even the most sophisticated of individuals. What I am saying is that while these pictures might give us a pleasant glow after we leave the theater perhaps even last us for a few days, we will shortly forget them. They have no meaning. They do not present a real life situation. They do not add to our store of experience.
What the "mental giants", behind the big mahogany desks in filmland, felt for "Children's Hour" I have no idea. But like most men who are concerned more with the size of their pocketbooks than whether they might be right or wrong, they probably trembled in fear of possible reaction to the theme the picture offered.
"The Children's Hour", as the ads say, is not for children. It's theme is one distasteful to even ordinarily broadminded people — love between the same sex.
In addition to powerful performances by Audrey Hepburn and Shirley McLaine, the distasteful theme was tastefully presented. And while some of us find it difficult to identify with at least one of the heroines, we cannot help sympathize with both — and we leave the performance a little richer in experience, even if only vicariously.
Undoubtedly the great film moguls who put up the cash to make the picture felt they were being daring and contributing something to our store of experience.

I suppose, in a way, they were.
But the fact of the matter is that the theme “The Children’s Hour” holds forth has been explored over and over, for many years in hundreds of thousands of words, in books and even large general circulation magazines.
I am not proposing that movies run rampant and throw out all sorts of sexy trash in the interest of freedom of expression. Even in quality books, sex must be a part of the general development of the plot (not included in the category of quality books is “Peyton Place”, but we definitely would have to include “Ulllysses”, with possibly some of the most lurid of sex passages).
What I am proposing is that the movie makers not tremble in fear whenever a strong theme calls for a certain amount of earthiness and sex.
Without doubt these films should be predominately and defi-
