'HeBls Angels 1 PLUS The Rolling Stones LTER Plus By DICK KLEINER HOLLYWOOD (NBA) In "Two-Lane Blacktop," there's a girl she's just called The Girl, never anything else who hops in and out of cars and on and off motorcycles. Without much thought, she goes with whoever seems to offer her the best opportunity, at the time. The Girl i played by Laurie Bird, and she's traveled that route. In fact, because her experiences in her own. sad life paralleled those of The Girl, she was first hired by screenwriter Rudolph Wurlitzer as a kind of private research project.

He talked to her for hours about her own restless travels on the road. Later, when they wens casting the movie, director Monte Helman couldn't find anybody to play The Girl. Wurlitzer suggested they test Laurie and they did and she got the part. She holds her own. Laurie Bird's as she tells it simply, directly and without emotion, is strictly 1971.

It's today's youth, rolled into one neat, trim red-headed girl. It differs from others in only respects it starts out more tragically and ends up with more promise. She's a New York girl, the daughter of an electrical engineer. She has two older brothers. Her mother died while "the three kids were still in diapers." Laurie dvjfesn't have much good to say about her father.

He wouldn't, let her have friends, she says, or any overnight guests Or any slumber parties, any of that. She says he used to beat her. "He gave me complexes," she says, "and I've spent time in psychoanalysis as a result." So she ran away, several 'times. The first time, just after she finished grammar school, she went with some people she knew to Montreal, when Expo was on. The people persuaded her to call home and she did and went back.

The next time she left home, her father put out a warrant for her arrest. She wound up in a New York institution for neglected girls, she says. The first day she was there another girl hit her in the teye and she was hospitalized for six weeks. She says she stiU has trouble with her vision "If I read Newsweek from cover to cover I get a headache" and she has a suit pending agaonst New York for a half- million over that incident. She ran away other times, and would probably still be on the road if "Two-Lane Blacktop" hadn't happened.

She's living in Los Angeles now, but she isn't happy here, either. She says New York has so many unhappy memories that she can't live there, but in Los Angeles she has no friends and nothing to do. "Hollywood seems to be a city of orphan people," she says. She reads some, but Her headaches bother her. She likes to work witih her hands, making clothes and jewelry.

She wanted to play tennis, but there was- nobody to play with. Now she feels she would like WIN AT BRIDGE Beatrice Dally Son, Beatrice, A0f. 14, IfTI 9 Guy's eyes on Texas By Oswald and James Jacctoy to study acting, except that costs too much and she doesn't have much money. She just got her driver's license, but she cant afford a car. She thinks maybe she'd like to be an oceanographer, but she has never studied that science.

She says she doesn't like America and would like to live in Europe, but there's that lawsuit pending and she can't leave the country until it's settled. She doesn't have much to do her family. One brother is in the service somewhere; sine hasn't seen him in three years. The other brother, she says, is the one she's trying to get to move out of her father's house, away from her father. But producers are interested in her.

She photographs like a dream she looks like an innocent Hayley Mills and she'll probably make more movies. So her future is bright but, then, it could hardly be worse than her past.

He thought rather unhappily about how his partner had punished him for overcaliing with only a four- card suit. Not that South's overcall was really bad.

Everyone had made worse overcalls every day of the week. Then South started to take stock to see if he could save anything from the wreckage. He could see five losers outside the trump suit. The best he could hope for would be to get out for minus 500 points. What could the enemy make in spades.

South was looking at three aces. If trumps were going to divide 2-2 his partner's king of trumps would be enough to set four spades. Since the game was match- point duplicate, South noted that if hearts divided 3-1 there would be a lot of East-West pairs bidding and making four spades for a score ot 620. In that case, while minus 500 would not be anything to write home about, it would be a respectable score. So Sou'Ci decided to play the hand for a 3-1 trump split.

He reviewed the bidding and decided that East was likely to be short. As soon as he got the lead he played his ace of trumps; continued with the jack and finessed. He got out for minus 500 and a fair score. The bidding ha? been: West North. East South 1 Pass Pass 2 You, South, hold: What do you do now? are a trifle strong for four spades but not strong enough io jeopardize game by bidding more.

By DICK KLEINER HOLLYWOOD (NEA) Wild Bill Hickok rides again. For seven years, in TV's early days, Hickok dashed across the living room every week.

Guy Madison played Hickok, with Andy Devine as his sidekick, in some 300 episodes of the series. Poor Madison, he got into it too soon those days, he made episode after episode and there wert no residuals. For the last 10 years, he's been in Italy, where he made 35 movies. "I went there in the first place to do one picture," says. "Then I got asked to do another.

Since my personal life in Hollywood had broken up, I decided to stay." After those 10 years, he says, he got a little tired of Italy. Pasta has a way of weighing heavily on the soul, as well as the stomach. Besides, his three daughters 14, 15 and 16 were all here and growing up and he thought the time had come to return to Hollywood. So Guy Madison Wild Bill Hickok i back on the California prairie. But the stay only temporary.

He's started production company, with some Texas money helping, and ic's going into feature and TV in the Dallas-Fort iVorth area. "I believe," he ay "that that area of Texas will be the icxt big movie production enter. It has everything including Madison already has one eature scheduled. It's called "The Sale Is On," and concerns 1 with quarter-horse breeding. It will roll on or about lept.

1. Madison will produce and star in it. He says it's the production that interests him most 'acting was never a gas with me." And yet, when I asked rim if a big part came along here, would he take it, he Special T-Bone Steak Kenney's Drive-Inn Beaver Ph. 223-2232 snapped his fingers and said, "Like that." Despite 10 years in Italy, MadSson returned neither fat nor married. "I spent half my time getting into relationships," he says, "and the other half getting out." Feeling Their Quotes Maybe you've noticed, but Hollywood movie ads are not using critics' quotes as much as they used to.

The word is that the public has come to resent rave reviews of films they just don't like. Exhibit A John Cassavetes' "Husbands," which was advertised with glowing quotes from high-tone reviews. And the public detested the picture a lot. So they have come to distrust that great critical applause, and the movie company ad agencies have responded by not using them so much any more. Think a Pink Drink O.K., try thi on your thirst some day.

Rob Reiner, Carl's boy who play the son on CBS's All in the Family, invented this drink and swills it constantly. It's made of one-half tomato juir? and one-half buttermilk. Rob's friend and writing collaborator, Phil Mishkin, accuses him of doing it just because it's the pinkest drink around. But Rob says he really likes it. But don't try it if you're hung- over the pink color clashes with the red of your eyes.

GIRL' in "Two-Lane Blacktop" is played by Laurie Bird, whose life was the model for the character, an aimless wanderer.
