We are ;|not a healthy nation--but that's a long subject." Mod fashions: 'This is the day and age of shock. It's the same way with literature. I don't think all these people who write four-letter words really like it." Toy firearms for children; "I'd a thousand times rather be shot than shoot somebody, even in self - defence. Even when there's a fly I do everything I can to coax it out of the house."

De- Mille epics as Don't Change ed| Your Husband and Male and Female, Now 67, seven times a grandmother, since 1938 a New York resident, talking about, in part, her recently completed role in, of all things, a segment Vivacious, Petite Gloria Swanson Sounds Off On Modern Age of CBS-TV's cornpone drama, The Beverly Hillbillies, The setting of the interview was the baronial, 39-room man- sion of actor George Hamilton, beau of President Johnson's daughter Lynda Bird and a long-time friend of Miss Swan- son, Miss Swanson's frail-looking, five-foot-two figure was in a pink jersey blouse and loose, matching slacks, VOICE SOFT Her voice is soft, her nose rettily upswept, her eyes pale ue with long black lashes. White - framed, half-size spec- tacles rested most of the time latop her caramel-colored halr, worn in a long bob, She was vivacious despite her fatigue. For days she had gone 'without sleep or regular meals while giving constant attention to her mother during a terminal illness. "I lost five pounds in a week," she said, Any prospects of remarriage for the five:- times divorced Miss Swanson? "Not that I know of." Her husbands were actor Wal- lace Beery, businessman Her- bert K. Somborn, the French Marquis de la Falaise de la Coudraye, sportsman Michael Farmer and retired business- man William Davey, More movies for Swanson? 'There's lots of discussion of it all 'the time and always has been." Arriving here to be near her ill mother, Gloria said, she was offered a Beverly Hillbillies part in which the plot calls for her to co-star in a silent film, "For the first time I play my- self," said Gloria. 'It was a pe- culiar sensation," Miss Swanson was born in Chi- cago. A visit out of curiosity to the old Essanay studios on the outskirts of that city led, at.14, to a bit part--and a screen ca- reer, STAR 18 BORN A year later she was playing leading comedy roles in Holly- 'wood for the Keystone studios and later Sennett. Six dramatic pictures with Cecil B, DeMille established her firmly as a star, and women copied her manner- isms and clothes, After more films at Paramount she dro} her slick-women-of- the-world roles for characteri- zations -- a gum-chewing sales- girl in Manhandled, a French laundress in Madam Sans Gene. Early voice training helped her make the transition to talk- ies in Indiscreet, Tonight or Never and others. Later she turned to the stage, making her Broadway debut in 1945 in A Goose for the Gander. In 1949 Miss Swanson scored her greatest acting triumph as a mad, tragic ex-movie star with William Holden in Sunset Boule- vard, She has no thought of moving back to Hollywood, She goes to Europe once a year in connection with her dress business. "1 travel so much it takes mules and chains to get me out of my apartment in New York," sald Mise Swanson. "I don't eat at restaurants very often." She buys her food at 'health food stores -- of course, there are charlatans in that field, too and from conscientious farm- coke who grow things on healthy soil," DRINKS LITTLE "People ask me," she said, " 'How do you stay so. thin?' and 'How do you have so much energy?', "Tt's the way you treat this motor you've got -- this fan- tastic human body. Some people will shove anything into that hole in thair face." Gloria said she never had a drink of hard liquor until she 'was 28 and that her drinking now is negligible. Today's movies?
