The walk-on part at Los Angeles International Airport went smoothly enough; walking off the jumbo jet in London, however, proved to be Actress Rita Hayworth's undoing. When her plane landed at Heathrow Airport after the ten-hour flight, the flaming redhead star of such '40s films as Gilda and Blood and Sand, now 57, flatly refused to disembark. "Miss Hayworth started shouting and waving her arms about," said an airline official. "She did not want to leave the plane." When she finally agreed to go more than a half-hour later, aides quickly spirited her away to the airport health office. Said Hayworth's manager Burton Moss: "She wasn't drunk. She just had one glass of champagne." He added: "Rita hates flying, so she had some tranquilizers. That's why she didn't look her best."
