When she's not studying a script or cleaning house, Zohra can be found most often at her easel painting. The solitary life suits her fine.

The Saturday night CBS special on the eve of the big game will honor gridiron gladiators with songs, dances and. sketches on a football theme. It's opttino en tho lino between athletes and how biz performers is less clearly uciincu uaii uic line Ul scrimmage. The trail blazer was Paul Robeson who starred at Rutgers and went on to become one of the great bassos of American stage and screen. And there is Woody Strode of UCLA, for years a top movie character actor.

Such recent football heroes as Don Meredith, Jim Brown, Fred Williamson, Frank Gif-ford, Johnny Unitas and a varsity of others have turned to acting and broadcasting Among the stars doing a turn Saturday night will be the Buffalo Bill's O.J Simpson and Joe isamath of the Jets, both i i ii. tube in varietyshows. But it doesn't work the other way around. One can't expect Robert Redford, Dustin Hoffman or Marlon Brando to suit up for the Pittsburgh Steelers Sunday afternoon. Jackie Gleason, who is built like a middle linebacker but never played anything rougher than pool, and Andy Williams, a tennis and golf player, will host "Supernight at the Superbowl." The man behind the show is Pierre Cossette, a football freak who has attended all nine previous Superbowls.

Cossette, a jolly, rotund USC man, is a tormer agent, ytiaunai manager aim recora tumpany owner wno currently Awards shows along with the syndicated Andy Williams and Sammy Davis musical series. He is a man with an ability to spot a vacuum and fill it profitably. "I noticed on the nights before the Superbowl that! celebrities wander aimlessly' in whichever city the game is being played," he said. "The only thing for them to do is go to cocktail parties and drink. I thought all that talent should be put to good use.

Celebrities could be on stage and in the audience. I went to CBS with the idea for providing a spectacular to celebrate the event.

Now that she has made her permanent base in California, Zohra plans to stay. She played Dr.

Norah Purcell in the short-lived series and regrets NBC-TV failed to give "Doctor's Hospital" a second chance. A native of New York City, Zohra felt it was time for a change anyway. She lost her mother last year and decided a move away from the East Coast would be the best thing for herself and her 86-year-old father. Zohra settled into a large, six-room apartment in West Hollywood. The rooms are furnished with cherished mementos of the past.

Over the years friends and members of her family gave her chairs, tables, lamps and things. She associates each piece of furniture with the individual who gave it to her. But the visitor to Zohra 's home is immediately assailed by beautiful paintings. Zohra, a former student at the National Academy of Art in New York, paints in oils, acrylics, water color and oil crayon. More than 20 of her works crowd the walls and at least as many paintings are stored in her closets.

Most of her canvases are portraits. But she also does seascapes, landscapes and still life. So far Zohra hasn't sold any of her paintings. She is not sure whether her reluctance is due to self-consciousness or unwillingness to part with them. She won two first prizes as a student at the academy.

The paintings blend beautifully with the 'apartment's color schemes earth tones of browns, tans, reds and beige. Book shelves overflow with a large collection of art'books. Many of the costly volumes feature the works of Picasso, Van Gogh and Cezanne, her favorite painters. Zohra is 5-feet-8, 125 pounds, with dark brown hair and eyes. She is reclusive and shy, totally dedicated to acting and painting.

It is difficult to believe, but she doesn't have dates. Not that she isn't asked, but Zohra refuses to complicate her life with romance. "I don't date at all," she says. "I'm afraid of going out op dates and the relationships that develop. Relationships are either serious or frivolous.

I don't believe in wasting time." Zohra doesn't sit alone home at nights either. Her friends are generally involved with her work. When she goes out to Health authorities say excessive smoking probably is the major risk factor for men who suffer a heart attack before the age of 50.

"For the first Supernight we're starring Burt Reynolds who played college football in Florida Bob Newhart, Dinah Shore, the Pointer Sisters and K.C.

and the Sunshine Band. "Mary Tyler Moore, Cloris Leachman, Bea Arthur, Jimmy Walker and Ed Asner will make cameo appearances on film. But all the rest of the show is live." Cossette rehearsed his troupe in Hollywood and jetted the entire company, including dancers, singers and stagehands to Miami for the shindig. Presentation of a trophy will be made to the National Football League's most valuable player during the course of the show. Film footage of the winner's heroics will precede the presentation.

"The show won't be 90 minutes of pure Cossette hastened to say. "We're trying to create an ambiance of football and entertainment. "I've seen shows where players are paraded around making jokes. That doesn't turn out very well. Namath and Simpson will sing a duet.

"The Superbowl is the number one rated sports event in the country, including the World Series which compiles the ratings for all its games. As far as I can tell, the only show that tops the Superbowl is the Academy Awards. "It's a fact of life that football fans and non-fans across the country will be focused on Miami this weekend. Football fever takes over after six months of competition and playoffs." Cossette has signed a five-year contract with CBS for "Supernight at the Super--bowl." But he's not sure whether the network will beam subsequent shows. "The Superbowl alternates among the networks," he said.

"Next year it will be on NBC and the following year on ABC. I don't know if CBS will want to plug the big game when it is due for another network. "We're -not connected with the NFL or the Superbowl itself. But I can't convince people I don't have a pocketful of tickets to the game. "I've got a ticket.
