HcHate-s Navy La Cum Vacia 7:30 The Wild, Wild West: BARBARA ANDERSON: SHE BRUISES EASILY Two Barbara's, Hale and Anderson, have shadowed Raymond Burr through successive video series. The first Barbara played Delia Street, a secretary, in Perry Mason. Barbara Anderson is Eve Whitfield, a former social register girl, turned San Francisco poiicewoman, in NBC's Ironside. Aside from loyal devotion to their boss that borders on the romantic the two girls have little in common.

Miss Anderson is 23, has sea-green, pale eyes, peaches and cream skin and blonde hair. Her features are attractively arranged, but she bruises easily, and, in this business, frequently. During the filming of one Ironside episode, Barbara and guest star Antoinette Bower, engaged in a scripted donnybrook that got out of hand. Antoinette accidentally hit Barbara with the butt of a gun and Barbara wound up with the bridge of her nose chippeij. Another recent segment cost her a split lip and a posterior bumped by a helicopter blade.

"Every day," says Barbara, "more and more of me is becoming plastic skin and scar tissue." Not that she minds. She loves every minute of her work. It was bard to come Bom in Brooklyn, Barbara moved to Memphis at an early age, her speech riddled with Brook- lynese "dese, dems and does." "In the eighth grade I took speech to clear it up," she says. Six years later she had to take speech all over again to clear up the "you-all 1 Southern drawl acquired in Memphis. Barbara studied dramatics in Memphis, performed with the Front Repertory Theatre, Page 20 and there and then decided to become an actress.

She's been hooked ever since. From high school--where she was a cheerleader, senior class secretary, Tri-Hi-Y and the speech department honor society. Outstanding Senior, speaker at graduation and Best Actress--Barbara went to Memphis State University. While there, the blonde beauty was named Miss Memphis. Barbara played her first professional role wilh the Southwestern University Players in Memphis, and from there went on to play in many productions in the area, and in summer stock.

She was determined to pursue an acting career, "but not in Memphis," she's quick to interject. "So I went to Hollywood. I had a little money saved to get started. I saw 'Crime and Punishment' at the' Los Angeles Art Theatre and said, 'That's for I joined them and played in their shows for two or three years i 1 ran out of money. "I scrambled for a living.

I did everything. I was receptionist and a phone solicitor selling products. Of 230 calls a day, if you get eight sales you're lucky. I hated it. I worked by day, acted at night.

I nearly collapsed. "Then I got my break--in 'Rattle of a Simple I played the prostitute. It was a good month for prostitutes. An agent saw me, liked me, signed me, and here I am--chipped nose, split lip and all." Despite the injuries, Barbara Anderson has the kind of looks that should keep her around for a long time..
