By VERNON SCOTT HOLLYWOOD (UPI) Gossip would have people believe Elliott Gould is the swinger of the western world, bon vivant and ladies man extraordinaire.

He has kept fan mags gasping and gossip columnists' tongues clacking for a decade. First there was his stormy marriage to Barbra Streisand. He punched a photographer in the nose. Five years ago the finger was pointed at Elliott when. "Glimpse of Tiger" capsized in mid-production.

He and Jennifer Bogart, daughter of director Paul Bogart, became parents of two children before they were married. Last year Gould titillated gossips by leaving Jenny to run off with his costar in "Whiffs," Jennifer O'Neill. Altogether, Elliott's portrait would appear to be that of a colorful, irresponsible man- about-town. In reality, Gould, approaching his 39th birthday, is a quiet, serious minded product of New York who works hard at acting and tries to be the best kind of father he can. He neither sounds nor looks like Erroll Flynn.

He would more likely be mistaken for a graduate student in botany. He took time out between scenes of his new picture, "I Win, I Will For Now," to take stock. 'I'm a very serious man because I take everything literally as I try to understand life and people," he said. "I've learned to accept my surroundings and look to make life as easy as possible. I'm not uptight anymore.

"There was a time when I was unsure of myself. Now I have self-assurance, thanks to the three C's, concentration, conviction and control. They've made me calm, cool and collected." Gould spoke easily, relaxing in his dressing room. There wasn't a trace of humor in anything he had to say. Of his romance with Miss O'Neill, Gould says, "I hear the gossip about us getting married.

That can't be. Jennifer got married recently and I'm still married to Jenny. "The most important thing to me are my kids. That's who I'm working for." Gould and Streisand are the parents of Jason, 8. His two Bowlers Hold children by Jenny are Molly, 3, and Sam, 2.

Barbra and Jenny are generous about visitation rights. "The children and I get together as often as possible," he said. "The kids are wonderful. Molly and Sam think their big brother is really terrific. "I get along best with kids because we are all children.

But some adults act grown up because they think they should behave that way. 'Childhood shows the "That means we learn from our children. They do the learning for us and we try to create a life for them. I listen to my kids so they will listen to me. You can't talk to children unless you speak their language." Gould ran a careless hand through bis tangle of curly hair.

He gave the appearance of being a sober, conscientious parent far cry from his swinging public image. "I'm with my children as often as possible," he said. "You can never spend too much time with them. They deserve all the time you can give them. "The kids have helped me learn to conserve my energy and to develop a relationship with the world.

I'm more open now and there are no real pressures because I don't worry about failure anymore." Gould doesn't fret about the gossip either. "I'm a hard working, independent man who has taken some raps along the way," he concluded. "But then who hasn't?" Bit Parts: Red Buttons has been added to the cast of "Lombard and Gable" starring Jim Brolin as Gable Bob Barker and Helen O'Con- neU will host the 24th annual Miss USA Beauty Pageant Dimitri Shostakovich gave director Normal Jewison permission to. use parts of his Eighth Symphony for the sound track of "Rollerball."
