By MAUREEN BASHAW OenMtt Newt service FORT MYERS The boop boop a doop galls mad. There, she was, this 77 pound, 58 lnch, orange haired, blue eyed ex cartoon and vau devil le queen, sitting in her apartment here a few weeks ago crying and laughing with, the soap opera gangs on television, when the telephone rang and a friend told her he'd heard a lady on the tube the night before claiming to be the ORIGINAL Betty Boop gal. Small balls of fire started to burn In Ann Rothschild's eyes and heart, and although she says she's "absolutely retired from show business," she decided to speak out, "I'm upset. I'm tired of.

hearing about these ORIGI NAL Betty Boopl and people around here thinking I'm a fraud. I'm the original Betty Boop. I was doing the boop boop a doop songs when I was on the road with the vaudeville shows (back In the 1920s.) "THEN WHEN Max Fliescher of Paramount Studios (In New York) was looking for someone for his new Betty Rose Tattoo A Cosmetic' MMZiWii halter top (the outfit she wears most of the time), The hairdresser decided she didn't like the scar, knew she couldn't get rid of it, and decided, to do something to make It prettier. So she went to Buffalo where she found a tattoo establishment, "I was scared to death," she remembers, "but it was worth It" WHAT "RESULTED was a bright red rose, green stem and leaves. None of the dye was placed on the 'scar itself, but when she goes out In public, she often fills it in with green liquid eyeliner that can be washed away.

How do people react? "I get a wild reaction," she admits. "When I am lylng otf the" beach, people turn to look at it a couple of times. It's really hairdresser has been dubbed "The Rose Lady" by in the local super' market that she frequents and she says that at first, her customers in the beauty salon "went ape." Now they are used to it. "At first I thought I would be embarrassed. But it turned out well and I would be more embarrassed if there was just that ugly scar on my stomach." Actually, her rose vested tummy goes along well with her other, job belly dancing.

It's all part of the costume, and so Is her pet snake. HER HOME companion Is a boa constrictor. She says she saved snake from people who wanted to send it to the SPCA. "My pet was bred in captivity, so it Is used to people," she says. "I don't really think of him as a snake.

It Is a beautiful creature, gentle and kind. It even teaches me more about belly dancing." The snake Is part of the costume. Mrs. Reed wraps her friend aound her when she dances. She says the students In her classes, held In her home, are getting used to the sight.

Dancing, with or without a snake, has been a way of life for Mrs. Reed for marly years. She danced professionally around the country for six years and is now spreading the fun and skill of the art to other women If Is such great exercise. "There is a lot to say for the individual muscle control that can be gained through dancing," she adds. "I've been told that I should be teaching pregnant women because jt's so good for them.

There Is so much grace in the movements." Meanwhile, Diana Reed teaches belly dancing. Is a hairdresser, hair coloring ex pen ana representative for a New York City based firm. She still runs a large home, raises three children, and entertains a house full of constant guests. She is not liberated, she says, just active. According to her kids, she's a "kooky mom."

But I don't know. I suppose I had wnat ne wanted, i was very tiny and very pretty, you know, and I had jthis high pitched voice. "Anyway, Mr. Fliescher always said, I was the original Betty Boop. He even won a court case over me once.

"Of course, there were other boop boop a doop girls (back in the late 1920s and early 1930s). Helen Kane (she died several years ago of cancer) was, one of them. When Mr. Fliescher told her she couldn't use the name Betty Boop In her acts, she tried to sue him foi" a quarter of a million dollars but she lost the case. "Yes, that was back In 1934.

You can look up the case in the New York Supreme Court records. "YET, THERE are still people who think Helen Kane was the original Betty. Just a few weeks ago, on 'Musical Chairs' (a CBS program), someone asked a lady on the panel who the original Betty' Boop was and the lady said 'Helen and she won the prize money. "Then my friend called me (In late August) to tell me he'd heard this Mae Questell on television she's a little fat woman 1 met in Mr. Fliesch er's office a few times saying she was the original Betty Boop on the Tom Snyder show (NBC).

"I'm upset. Some people around here are beginning to think I'm a fraud. They go around wisp, wisp, whispering about me; It bothers me. I'm absolutely retired from show business now, "I still teach tap (dancing) to one little girl, but that's all. Most of the time.

I like to sit and watch television. I love the soap operas. I cry and laugh with all those people, you know. "I just' want to clear this up. Let me show you this let Tm upset.

Some people around here are beginning to think I'm a fraud. They go around wisp, wisp, whispering. It bothers Betty Boop HW3i fir "sS vJbbV bLh ter. It's from the president of my fan club. He's upset about this Mae Questell thing, too." SO YOU look at a copy of a letter by Mike Lacy of Rush ville, who apparently Is the president of the National Betty Boop Fan Club, to Tom Snyder which says: "It has been called to my attention that Mae Questell appeared on your program Thursday, August 28, 1973.

"She claimed to be the original voice of the cartoon star, Betty Boop. It is my belief that this is an iniquity to the original voice of Betty Boop. "Mrs. Ann L. Rothschild of Fort Myers, has valid proof of being the first Betty Boop.

"Even though her (Mae Questell) voice was heard in several of the later cartoons, this definitely does not give her the privilege to say that she is the first voice of Betty Boop, a great cartoon star. A trial was held (the one In 1934) which proved Mrs. Rothschild to be the voice of Betty jn the first Max Fliescher Betty Boop cartoon." Mrs. Rothschild came to Fort Myers in 1951 from St. Petersburg, where she operated her own Betty Boop studio for five years: SHE SPENT 20 years in show business and another 20 studying and preaching the teachings of the Unity faith.

Her show business career started in the early 1920s when she was "the baby" of the lijiw.cmweMTTHHtftiir rCW.RLEY" STEPFORDLd WIVESgPcw!

She later teamed up with another Follies performer and played In the vaudeville houses In and around New York City a number of years. Then, of course, came the Betty Boop stint. The name Betty Boop became a household word from 1933 to 1945 when Betty Boop cartoons and Betty Boop dolls were the rage. Mrs. Rothschild also starred in movies from Paramount during the 1930s.

But, In 1943, she gave it all up to run her studio in St. Petersburg. Among her students was Carroll Baker who has since appeared in a number of Hollywood productions. Then, she enrolled in the Unity Village school In Kansas City, and kept up correspondence courses. In 1951, she was sent to Fort Myers for on the job training.

By 1954, she was an ordained minister and at one time hosted a weekly radio program on the Unity faith. Back in 1971, she was coaching a dance troupe of over 60 year olds at Seven Lakes condominiums for a variety show. She left the pulpit IS years ago following her marriage to her second husband, Joe Rothschild, who died six years ago. XX RATED "FEAR ON FANTASY "CHARITY BALL" MswtY fk fa w. viTaMt m.
