PEACE STERLING NEW "YORK (AP) Striding into the New York restaurant with a determined, no-nonsense walk, bright in a red suit, Jane Alexander doesn't look like a movie. star.

Her hair falls straight to her shoulders, she's- wearing practically no makeup arid her face has more personality than- prettiness. But she is a star--the female lead in" stage and screen versions of "The Great White Hope," and she has a calm, deliberate attitude toward her career. "I'm living in New York--sort of looking for she says. "It's very; hard for an actor arid hard for me after the play and film. I used to be in a.

position where I 'couldn't say no to a role. Now, I can't justify doing bad stuff." Won Award She shouldn't have to. For her part in the Broadway production. "The Great White Hope," she" won the Antoinette Perry award as the best supporting actress of 1988-69, plus the Theater Award and an achievemnt award from Magazine. two days after winning the Tony, she was signed to co- star in the screen version of the play--her first motion picture.

"I knew "The Great White, Hope'--was a good but I didn't know it to where I am. today," she'says. "I liked doing the play, but I "was to'put an end to it, and the film was a good way to do that." Miss role of Bllie the white mistress of the world's first black heavyweight boxing champion, brought her notoriety as well as recognition as an: actress. The notoriety was reflected in the hate mail she received for the first few months the play was running. "I really sort of expected it," she comments.

"There are a lot nutty people in the world, and they have very particular ideas about racism. That's partly, I think, because they've had a lot of time to think about it." There-have been many misinterpretations' and over-simplifi- cations of the role, Miss Alexander says. "For instance Bllie never sees her Jack Johnson for what it is. She nev- or thinks about his being black," the'actress noted. "But she should have thought about what his color means to him," Miss Alexander continues.

"Because when it comes down to the that's what the name calling is all about. She thinks their problems- are just in the relationship, but he sees it much further than that." Drama Major Prejudice is something Miss Alexander's New England background didn't teach her. She was schooled at Beaver Country Day School in Boston, where, CORNER OF 4th AND CONGRESS TROY OPEN 7 DAYS! Serving Breakfast, Luncheons and Dinners Itolfan and American Foods Try Our Famoui The Finest in Town JANE ALEXANDER she recalls, there no blacks. She continued cation lor two years at Sarah Lawrence College, majoring in drama and math and learning, she says, about all kinds of peo- pie. After leaving Sarah she studied at University of Edinburgh in Scotland, but became bored with the formality of the" classes there and returned to the United States.

In New York she worked as secretary to theatrical agent, and when an actress was needed to be Sandy Dennis's: understudy in "A Thousand Clowns," she got the. job. Not afterward she became active in regional theater in Boston and at Stage in Washington, D.C. it was work she loved. "Regional theater really spoiled me," she says.

"My agents tell me I can't go back to it. I say I can, and I will, be- I really want to. You get 5 such a group feeling in-theater, and it's-good to'get to play all kinds, ofi, different parts. Now I'm even worrying the -parts I'll'never get --like Ophelia, because I'm too old."
