Apr. 17 Most Challenging Makeup Operation In History: The biggest and most challenging makeup operation in the history of Hollywood is currently underway for a new film called Planet of the Apes'. One hundred artists and laboratory men have been given the job of turning out a cast of ape-like beings who inhabit another planet. Faces of the apes are especially difficult to make since they must be pliable and able to express emotion. Experiments have been going on for a year to be ready for the commencement of the -million production. The makeup substance is made partly of foam rubber, and allows the actors to sweat without effecting their grotesque looks. Makeup men start on the cast as early as 4 o'clock in the morning to be ready for filming. Story of the film is about astronaut Charlton Heston who lands on the wierd peopled by sophisticated apes. Chief ape is played by Maurice Evans
