The Indiana Gazette Tuesday, January 22, 1985 Page 9 Actress Anne Jeffreys juggles two television roles By JERRY BUCK AP Television Writer LOS ANGELES (AP) If it's raining, actress Anne Jeffreys is probably working, but will it be in her day part or her prime-time role? Miss Jeffreys stars in the ABC series "Finder of Lost Loves" as Tony Franciosa's friend and office manager. But she also stars in the ABC daytime soap opera "General Hospital" as Amanda Barrington, a wealthy society widow who serves on the hospital board. "I call myself a cover shot because all my scenes are interiors," she said. "Whenever it rains they do the interiors so I know I'll have to work. The last thing I do every night js check the next day's weather.

If it's fair I'll stay up until my usual 4 a.m. because I'm a night person." It can be hectic when both show call at the same time. "That happened a few days ago," said Miss Jeffreys. "They can get a little upset at each show when i shows there's a conflict. I'm caught in the middle and I get squeezed from both ends.

They always make me feel guilty. So the other day I worked on 'Finder' until 3:30 in the afternoon, then rushed over to 'General Hospital' and worked until 12:30 in the morning." She rarely works more than two days on each episode of "Finder of Lost Loves" and her work on "General Hospital" depends upon how much she's involved in the storylines. "Some weeks I'll work on 'General Hospital' four days straight. Some weeks not at all," she said. On "Finders of Lost Loves," Miss Jeffreys plays a rich lady who helps Franciosa's character in his goal of reuniting old flames.

"I seem to be typecast as wealthy society ladies," she said. "That's One with me. People always think of me as being terribly sophisticated. I'm not at all. Robert always says I'm a baggy-pants comedian." By ABIGAIL VAN BUREN DEAR ABBY: This is in response to "Flat-Chested in 111." who felt inadequate because she didn't have more.

I have had "too much" (38D) since eighth grade, and I was miserable. All through high school I was teased, humiliated and sexually harassed. I even had to quit cross-country running because it was too painful and embarrassing. "Flat-Chested" doesn't need a fuller figure; she needs a higher self-esteem. If I had an extra $2,000 lying around, I would treat myself to breast-reduction surgery.

TOO MUCH IN TEXAS DEAR TOO MUCH: My mail this week would bring joy to the "Have Mots" who assume that all gentlemen prefer big-breasted Read on: DEAR ABBY: You told "Flat- Chested," who felt inadequate, to wear a padded bra. Well, here is one man who would it unfortunate were she to take your advice. Why? Because the flatter the chest, the more passionate-the woman. I'm in my 50s now, and it's not just my opinion. I've talked to a lot of men, and they all said flat-chested women make better lovers.

Please tell flat-chested women not to envy their big-bosomed sisters. Nature has a way of compensating. -LIKES'EM SMALL IN IOWA DEAR ABBY: This is for "Flat- Chested in Moline, In the days before they had padded bras, I was flat-chested, so I wore "falsies." Then one day my bra came undone and one of my "breasts" fell off! I hated being flat-chested and longed for larger breasts, then lo and behold, I discovered I had added several inches to my chest. The only trouble was, I had doubled my inches everywhere else! I was no longer flat I was fat! At last I had the bust I had always wanted, but I wasn't nearly as attractive as I was before I doubled my 110 pounds. I thought about how I used to hate my flat chest, then I noticed how fashionable and smart-looking the fashion models were.

They were all flat-chested every one of them! So, dearie, don't waste any more time longing for what you don't BROWN 6th and Water Sts. Indiana 463-0881 349-3663 WED.

FORMERFLATTIE IN AUGUSTA, GA. DEAR ABBY: I totally disagree with your'advice to "Flat-Chested." Wearing a padded bra might make her better, but what happens when she takes it off in the company of a man who was expecting more? I was as as they come, so all through high school my mother had me wearing padded bras. I didn't fool anybody. The girls in my gym class soon found out that the 36B's I was showing off weren't really me, and it wasn't long before all the boys knew, too. (Girls talk andsodoboys.) I finally decided it wasn't worth the teasing, so I threw away my padded bras.

I figured honesty is the best policy, so why put on a false front? DEAR ABBY: I'm surprised you didn't recommend silicone implants to "Flat-Chested." I spent 39 years hating my body, then I decided to have breast-augmentation surgery. I'm only sorry I waited so long. LOOKING GREAT Problems? What's bagging you? Unload on Abby, P.O.

Mat. 1:45,4:15 Robert is Robert Sterling, her husband of 33 years.

He's a former actor they starred together in the old "Topper" and "Love That Jill" series who now manufactures golf with a younger man. I think maybe something is going to be started up with him again." Miss Jeffreys, who grew up in Goldsboro, N.C., has spent the last 40 years on the stage, in movies or in television. She was in the movies "I Married an Angel," "Step Lively," "Dillinger" and "Sing Your Way Home." An operatically trained soprano, she was in the musicals "Street Scene," "Kiss Me Kate," "Romance" and "Three Wishes for Jamie." Her description of how she met her husband sounds like the plot from one of her musicials. After starring in the Broadway hit "Street Scene," she returned to RKO Pictures expecting to become a featured performer. Instead, they offered her a role as one of five ANNE JEFFREYS clubs.

They have three grown children. She joined the cast of "General Hospital" a year ago for what was supposed to be just 10 shows. So far she's appeared in 70 episodes. "What Amanda's like really depends on who's writing a particular script," she said. "Sometimes she's a little dingy.

She was involved with a young masseur. That generated a lot of fan mail, but there wasn't one letter chastising me for going out Dean is back HOLLYWOOD (AP) Actor Dean Stockwell says he did a "classic '60s drop-out" but he did it in the '80s after several years without good roles and now he's glad to be back, with two movies currently, in theaters. Stockwell, 48. a popular child actor in the late 1940s and early '50s, is now in Wim Wenders' "Paris, Texas," playing Harry Dean Stanton's brother, and in "Dune" as the traitorous Dr. Yuen.
