Interviewing Lovely Movie Star Has Its Interesting Aspects
By HARMAN W. NICHOLS
Washington—(U.P.)—Did you ever interview a lovely movie queen who showed up in a lounging robe, barefooted and popping her gum like a teen-ager?
Well. I did.
This pert little brunette, 19-year-old Elizabeth Taylor, wasn't angling or the cameras, because there wasn't one in sight.
"My feet hurt," she said, explaining the bared toes,
It was understandable. She had been through a pretty trying day. The London-born actress arrived in our town by plane from New York after a flight from abroad. She had been wined and dined all day long and was about to see, for the first time, her new picture called "A place in the Sun."
But, there she was in blue gown and bare feet, ready to be interviewed.
The editors of the Harvard Lampoon once gave her a mythical award as the actress of the year least likely to succeed. So I asked her if she didn't think amateur predictions can sometimes go wrong.
Liz really is rather an amazing girl. For instance, seldom does she o to the beauty shop for a haircut, he considers herself one of the best barbers in the world and works on her own black locks with a pair of time store scissors.
I don't know a barber who could hallenre her.
"And you might write this down," she said while I looked at her raw pinkies and my wife looked at me. I am a great hand to lose things. I never carry a cent. I'm always losing purses, umbrellas and packages. I have everything delivered including money. If I lose my driver, I can always borrow cab fare from a cop."
She hopes someday to become a dramatic actress, but she'll have to grow a little first, and maybe learn lot while growing.
Liz has more talent than most girls her age. She is quite an artist. He gets that from her pappy who is a prominent Beverly Hills, Calif, artaler. So our gal learned to paint and draw.
She has done so well with some of her water colors that one big Christmas card company is after her to print some pretty pictures.
Her big extravagance is clothes, and does she buy em' and wear em', it takes several bellhops to lug herunks down to the lobby as she goes from town to town.
The girl can write, too.
One of her hobbies is pets. She has owned a chipmunk, a squirrel, a clock of cats, dogs, horses and white mice. She wrote a book about her pet chipmunk which she called "Nibbles and Me."
"It didn't sell very good," she ad- itted, "but I wrote it all by myself. It's mine and I love it."
Liz doesn't go in for much make- up, and, I'd like to add, she doesn't have to. She could give the Miss americas of our time a run for the money. She doesn't have to, though, he's a pro already.

New York—(U.P.)—Black as the basic color in a woman's wardrobe is on its way out. It's a casualty of television, in the opinion of Rose Bogdanoff, head clothing designer for NBC television.
TV Changes Color In Women's Clothes
Miss Bogdanoff explained that both black and white are taboob before TV cameras because they photograph poorly. TV actresses have taken to colors, manufacturers are going along to meet the demand, and eventually this color-consciousness will seen out to women in general.
"Why, in the old days," said Miss Bogdanoff, "no hopeful young actress was without a little black dress. Now they demand color because they all want to get into television."
Miss Bogdanoff, a veteran designer also for movies and the theater, remembered one actress who married recently and insisted on a cream-colored trousseau.
"I want something I can use later n front of the cameras," she explained.
As for the men. Well, no "regular" on TV ever buys a white shirt. Rose said, "pale blue or grey. That's all. Either looks white by the time it gets to the screen."
Miss Bogdanoff, a wiry little woman with greying hair, said it was getting so she was more of a clothing consultant than a designer. Half her calls are from people wanting to know what color suit or dress to buy—just in case they get in camera range.
"Tweeds are wonderful on TV," said the designer. "They don't reflect."
Miss Bogdanoff has been with the network just about ever since its had a costume and design department. Costuming actresses is part of her job. Costuming comedians is another.
Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis, regulars on the Colgate Comedy hour, give her a headache along with laughs.
"They're apt to throw custard pies at the orchestra or take the scissors to their own tuxedos," she said. "When they're on, we just don't dare let anyone in the vicinity wear anything expensive."
Miss Bogdanoff said one of the big problems in television costing is the rush-rush all the time. Clothes have to be built for quick-changes by the wearer. That, Miss Bogdanoff said, once caused viewers to get a look at actress Janet Blair which wasn't in the script.
Miss Blair started changing her costume too soon.
"There she was," said Bogdanoff.
"down to her unmentionables . . with the camera still on her."

DOUBLER ANKLET
a treat for your feet
It's been years since any sock has made a hit like Doubler. And we know why . . . it's the heavy Turtle-Neck cuff, and the fine combed cotton fabric that's soft, absorbent, and keeps cushiony underfoot even after countless wearings and washings. Snow white, of course. So whisk in for some.
