Another offbeat newcomer to Hollywood films, Italy's fiery Anna Magnani, was honored for her explosive role in 'The Rose Tattoo,' her first U.S. movie. The supporting player awards made it an all-newcomer year. Jo Van Fleet snared the award for 'East of Eden' and Jack Lemmon was honored for 'Mister Roberts.' Mr. Borgnine a year ago was only a player of small villain roles in films and a virtual unknown. But Wednesday night the 38-year-old actor heard his name called by Grace Kelly, last year's best actress winner, as the top actor of 1955 for his first starring role in 'Marty,' also walked off with Oscars for best direction, to Delbert Mann, and for best screen play to Paddy Chayefsky. Susan Hayward's loss in the Oscar race made her 'four times a nominee, never a winner.' She had been a close second favorite to win for her role of an alcoholic in 'I'll Cry Tomorrow.'

Estes Kefauver flew to California today to capitalize on his upset victory in the Minnesota presidential primary election. The presence of the Tennessee Democrat spurred his enthusiastic followers to redouble their efforts for a victory in California's June 7 primary, where Kefauver again opposes a slate pledged to Adlai Stevenson. Talk of a third political party for disgruntled Southern Democrats was beginning anew today as Dixie was Kefauver's Minnesota victory with 'surprise' but little change of heart. At Columbia, S.C., the South Carolina Democratic convention passed a resolution that would allow their state's delegates to throw their support to a third party in the event the Democratic nominee or the party platform is distasteful to the South.
