Comedy about an Englishwoman who goes to visit her country cousins and tries to change their way of living. 4 it nil 1 Hour By Hour young girls in high schools all over the country who try to look like her. Does she feel a certain responsibility towards these kids who have obviously been influenced by ber? "Naturally, I'm flattered by' the fact that it happened but I don't think anyone should model herself after any other person. These girls are Just stifling their own personality by doing so and I believe they should do their own thing-whatever it is." Peggy has actually lived the. life, most high-school and shop-office girls dream about all the time rich, beautiful, and famous.

They would all give anything to be Peggy's shoes. But what they don't realize Is tnat pretty Peggy Is often lonely and alone. Many a Saturday night, 1 she Just sits in her little house in Beverly Hills, washes her hair, and listens to records. Sometimes she goes over to visit her close friend Jack Nicholson. "Los Angeles is the worst place in the world for a single girl, especially a single girl in this business.

There Is no center to life here, the way there Is in New York. There is no pace, no beat to life. "And the men out here are spoiled. They expect too much too easily and they don't believe in romance. Most ef the guys in Hollywood are either married or Jerks or both," she says.

Peggy has gone out with many famous names in the past, including Terence Stamp and Paul McCartney. For quite a while she was involved with record producer Lou Adler but the romance ended about a year and a half ago. There is no one she is particularly interested in at the moment, which is just as well, because Peggy feels she's not yet ready for marriage. "I used to think I would marry by the time I was 23 but now I've decided to wait till I'm 30. I don't really believe a marriage contract is that important.

It's much more important to have a good solid relationship with two people. But I realize the necessity of marriage for children and for society." You wouldn't expect Mod Squad's Julia Barnes to com up with such a square statement, would you? But Peggy comes from a dost family. Her father, Harold Upton, is vice president and chief counsel for National General Oct poration and her mother, Rita Lipton, is noted artist who recently had a show In Rome. Mrs. Lipton is very attractive and looks young enough to be Peggy's sister.

To her parents' dismay, Peggy lived for a year a Topango Canyon hippie commune, "probably a reaction to aU the rich guys who'd been taking me out back east," she admits. Peggy grew up in New York and was a leading Manhattan model during her high school days. She attended the Professional Children's School in New York and got hooked Ceadaawd page 2. est 3. BY NORMA LEE BROWNING Peggy Lipton, who was born with a gold spoon in her mouth, could easily buy a cool dozen of them with all the loot she has made from TV's Mod Squad.

'She Is now into the fifth season of the successful series about young undercover agents and at 23, is earning approximately $10,000 a week, 24 weeks a year. "Fame is soothing to the ego and it isn't Illegal," says Peggy. Even tho she's happy about her fame and financial success, she is the first to admit that Mod Squad doesn't provide the greatest acting challenge In the world. playing the same thing for so long, you kind of stop trying because it's so easy. Everyone in a TV series gets trapped by the role he plays.

But it's worse not to work, to be unemployed. would be worse If I were on the other side of that fence out there, looking in," she said, referring to the fence around the 20th Century Fox studios where Mod Squad is filmed. It wasn't exactly easy getting together with the young lady. Mod Squad is shot all over town and at a moment's notice, Peggy is called to go to downtown Los Angeles or to the racetrack or out to the San Fernando Valley. But we 1 finally caught up with her during a lunch break at 20th Fox.

She was wearing Jeans and a tie-dye T-shirt She sounded tired from the long hours and the running around. But in a way, the had asked for It She'd been bugging the show's producer to find some scripts with more for her to do. "I really didn't want to Just take the money and run. I wanted more to do on the show. So now the producers are planning each episode to feature one of us Ithe other two Mod Squaders are Michael Cole and Clarence Williams III as the central characters.

So every three weeks, I'll be doing my thing." There's only one thing wrong with ber more-work scbedule-ebe's on constant call and can't make plans other own. And It upsets ber when she has to cancel out of something at the last minute as she did with a charity fashion show last week. "It makes me look like the heavy," aba says. When Mod Squad first went on the air, it took only a few weeks for It to become a hit, and it has been up high in the ratings ever slnceDid Peggy expect the series to be the success it was? "I dWt expect it to be as quick a success. But we all figured it would go, because we felt we had the right, show and the right subject and the right chemistry among us," she said Any one who has seen Peggy on Mod Squad knows she has the "now" look-4te long, straight, booey-bionde hair, fee slnmsss.
