A successful modeling career is clearly not enough for this raging beauty who stars in a new movie and who brews beer in the kitchen df her apartment. Ireland makes her starring debut -in an exploitation film titled "Alien L.A." in which she plays a girl lured to the center of the earth where she encounters a bunch of weirdo trolls who try to convert her to their own kind, If it doesn't sound as promising as, say, "Gone With The Wind," it is at least a major break for Ireland, who plays a roller-skating waitress. When director Albert Pyun saw a photograph of Ireland he called her into his office and hired her on the i i business in case my show business career doesn't work out." Ireland wants to become a professional brewer with her own label and bottling factory.

She learned how to make beer from a book and bought several starter kits to em-. bark on a variety of experiments to brew a unique drink. "It's really more like ale," Ireland said. "I make the batches in my kitchen and all my friends love the results. They drink it as fast as I can brew it, which isn't a fast process.

"What amazes me is how profitable brewing can be. Until this picture came along I was going to open a brew pub in Santa Barabara and make beer right on the premises. I'm stilt researching the possibility. "It a risky proposition and I'm looking for partners to work with, In J917, Mexico's Constitution was adopted.

LOS ANGELES (AP) Vincent Price is a screen legend who manages to survive by being versatile. He is willing to spread his unique talent in all media. He was the ghostly voice on Michael Jackson's hit "Thriller" album.

He toured for years in his one-man show about Oscar Wilde. He appears on "Hoi-. lywood Squares," TV talk shows and commercials. Ho sang and devised villainous plots as the voice of Professor Ratigan in Disney's animated feature, "The Great Mouse Detective." Price recently has boen in the theaters in two widely divergent films:" "The Offspring, a low-budget thriller, and "The Whales of August," Lindsay Anderson's drama co-starring Bette Davis, Lillian Gish and Ann Sothern. Critics have marveled about such a galaxy of film greats, though some have carped about the dramatic values.

At his home in the Hollywood Hills, filled with great works of art, Price reflected on his acquaintance with the great women of the screen. "I worked with Bette years ago (1939) in a thing called 'The Private Lives of. Elizabeth and with Errol Flynn, It wn? great fun," Jie said. "She was wonderful and imperious, but of course she had a right to be: She was playing Queen Elizabeth I. The only person she didn't win with was Errol.

"People are always worried about her cantankerousness, but it's consistent. She been that way for years. 'She's marvelous to work with."

"I admired her enormously, and I saw her on opening night of her first Broadway play she ever did: 'Uncle Vanya' with Osgood Perkins, I happened to be at Yale, and I had enough money to come down to New York and see the play.

It was a majestic moment to see this legend of the screen walk out on the stage for the first time." At 76, Price was the youngest of the quartet; Miss Gish is reported to be 91, though she denies it, Miss Davis is 79, Miss Sothern 78. How did he feel about working with such grande dames? "I found that the grande dames aren't so grande when you get them on a set, particularly on a small island in Maine. Some of their grandeness disappears," he said. "They -were very down-to-earth, complaining a lot, as we all were. It was kind of a miserable location.

The people on the Island were wonderful to us, but it was cold. There was no place to meet; at night you could only invite someone from their little cold cabin to your little cold cabin." In "The. Whales of August," Price plavs a Russian nobleman and friend of the two quarreling sisters (Gish and Davis). It's a small role, he admitted, the kind he likes: "You don't have to carry the picture. You walk in, play your little scene and walk out with people remembering you.

I notice that most of the lines critics quote were my lines. So I must have made some impression." Comparing the two lead actresses, Price remarked: "Bette is a very studied actress; nothing will happen that you don't expect on the set. There are always surprises for the audience, especially in this kind of role. "Lillian, being her age and always the ethereal kind of had her usual quality. But what I liked in this role was the toughness you never suspected wdsthere.

(The location) was a little difficult because she's a little deaf and a little frail. And I'm 'a little frail. "One day someone walked on the set and saw a cane here and a crutch there. He said, 'My God, it looks like Born in St. Louis, Vincent Price left Yale University to study art in London and was discovered there by producer Gilbert Price, who cast him as Prince Albert in "Victoria Regina." The young actor served in Orson Welles' Mercury Theater before coming to Hollywood in the early 1940s for a contract at 20th Century Fox.

Price's chill-master image began with the 3-D "The House of Wax" in 1953, and has stuck with him ever since. Off-screen, he presents the image of the gentle, cultured man, which he is. But he admits he shares a certain toughness with Miss Davis and Miss Gish. "You have to be tough to survive in this business. Once I was a guest on.

a talk show with Orson as the host. We got talking, and we came up with the most important word of our careers: survival. "It's awfully easy to get out of the business," he said. "It' not easy to stay in. I never felt that the great parts were the only things you should do.

That's a great mistake, because there are so many interesting things available." By The Associated Press Today is Friday, Feb. 5, the 36th day of 1988. There are 330 days left in the year. 4 Today's highlight in history: On Feb. 6, 1937, President Franklin D.

The third concert was first performed in London's Westminster Abbey in December 1973, six months before Ellington died of cancer in a New York Hospital. "Pop didn't feel the first one from Grace Cathedral was complete, so he kept working on it," Mercer Ellington said from his home in New York.

"It was the epitome of Ellington's career. His greatest involvement came in preparation of the sacred concerts-! Under Mercer's direction, the Ellington orchestra performs the third concert? plus excerpts from the first two. The format changes slightly from city to city, depending on the preference of a particular guest artist or home choir. One of the most meaningful, Mercer said, happened last year in Yugoslavia where the orchestra was allowed into a 200-year-old church to play the work. "Here we were heralding religion and God in a communist country," he said.

Each presentation includes the moving spiritual solo "Come Sunday," which originally came from Ellington's "Black, Brown and Beige" tone poem composed in 945h in tribute to. the history of the American Negro experience. "Ellington has not had enough -exposure in -the directions he went other than his jazz side, such as his symphonic music, his writing for opera and ballet. People know 'Take The A They know 'Mood Indigo' and 'Sophisticated The public should have an opportunity to be aware of the many other facets of Pop's music," Mercer said. There is something else Mercer wants people to know about Duke Ellington and his sacred concerts.

"He felt whatever happened with the sacred concert should be a matter of fate. He never wanted us to go out and sell it, to commercialize it with some of the attention we are drawing. "He just did not want money to be a factor in the presentation of the sacred concert. Mercer said. "The most horrible thing of all was any thought that he'd make a profit from it.

He did not want to be a profiteer in that line." BOSTON (UPI) Duke Ellington was best known for his swinging, big band jazz, but the energetic and prolific composer always considered his three works of sacred music to be his most vital contributions. Under the direction of his son, Mercer, the Duke Ellington Orchestra carries on that legacy of Ellington's music with about 10 such concerts a year woven into its performance schedule. One of the more grandiose occasions occurs Feb. 6 at Boston's acoustic marvel, Symphony Hall. The Ellington band will team up with singer Al Green, tap dancer Savion Glover, 100 voices from area choirs and glee clubs and a roster of celebrity narrators to perform Ellington's Third Sacred Concert.

The concert is a fund-raiser for the Dana McLean Greeley Foundation for Peace and Justice. Scheduled narrators include Joanne Woodward, Paul Newman, Coretta Scott King, Atlanta Mayor Andrew Young and young peace activist Amy Carter. "Every man prays in his own lan- guage, and there is no language that God does not understand," Ellington wrote in his autobiography, 'Music is My "If a man is troubled, he moans and cries when he worships. When a man feels that that which he en-Joys in this life is only because of the grace of God, he rejoices, he sings, and sometimes dances." This musical affirmation of faith is not toe-tapping swing music. It is very spiritual and orchestral.

There is a jazz tinge to it because of the distinct lush tones of the Ellington band and the personalities of the soloists. first Ellington sacred concert was performed Sept, 16, 1965, at Grace Cathedral in San Francisco and repeated Dec. 26, 1965, at Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church in New York. The band also performed it two months later at England's Coventry Cathedral during a European tour.

Don't lower the flag until you have exahusted all chances to make your contract. Six spades was a good contract. It would be cold if the queen of trumps dropped either doubleton or UP THE SHIP singleton and, as South proved, there were other chances, albeit slim, even if her majesty did not appear. West led a diamond, and declarer soon knew he had a steep hill to climb.

He won in hand and cashed the ace-king of spades to learn that he had a trump loser. Many a player would now have thrown in the towel. But was there a way to avoid losing a club trick? Declarer worked out that he could still bring home his contract if East held specifically a doubleton club and a suitable holding in the red suits. After cashing his three heart winners and the ace-king of clubs, declarer cashed the ace of diamonds and ruffed a diamond in his hand to complete the groundwork for an endplay. He then exited with a trump.

The lie of cards was the answer to a bridge player's prayers. In with the queen of spades, East was forced to lead a red card. Declarer could ruff in either hand while discarding his club loser from the other, so he lost only a trump trick. True, declarer was most fortunate to find a distribution that enabled him to make his slam. But credit him with the technique to make good fortune pay off.
