Pantagraph A-10 Bloomington Normal, III. Feb. 13, 1979 Chechen HVy win Psychologist Brothers never stops giving advice 4 Heartline HEARTLINE: I worked for the railroad from 1942 until 1971. From February 1971 until present, I have been working for a grocery store and have become covered under Social Security also. I will be taking my Railroad Retirement on January 1, 1979.

What I want to know is, after I retire, can I still work part-time for the grocery store without effecting my benefits from the railroad? D.L. Before you can begin receiving a railroad retirement annuity, you must actually retire. That is, you must stop working for your last pre-retirement employer and relinquish any employment rights you may now hold. Also, your railroad retirement annuity would not be payable for any month in which you return to work for any railroad or for your last pre-retirement employer. Thus, your railroad retirement annuity would not be payable if you were to work for your former employer, even on a part-time basis.

After you retire, however, you could work part-time for a different employer. We advise that you do check with the railroad retirement board when you make application for benefits to see how earnings restrictions may apply in your case. New York. And in between, she takes a look at America's id, ego and superego on the lecture circuit. She is concerned about "the amount of selfishness in the 'Me Everybody in the '60s wanted to change the world.

But society was like an elephant," she says, "it just stood there and smiled and didn't budge. Now people are concentrating on themselves, they are worried about their own goals and how to achieve them." This is not very healthy, she says. But then again, she has just published a book with chapters like "The Manipulative Handbook" and sub-chapters like, "How to use fear to clinch a sale." "Well," she says, "I do try to point out that some of the things people think they want aren't all they think they are, but if they want them anyway, there are certain psychological tools that will help them get them. "You can't expect people to be altruistic all the time, and you can't live their life for them. Besides, I'm quite satisfied that getting what you want out of life doesn't mean hurting other people." She has her own ideas about what she would like to get out of life 10 years from now.

"I'd like to run for Congress. Coming from a family of lawyers, (her sister is also a lawyer) I see how lawyers are needed to get people out of touble. But that's a negative approach. I think Congress could use more humanists." But that is 10 years from now. Until then, the popular psychologist has her work and her farm and her 24-year-old daughter, Lisa, a doctor, and her 29-year marriage to Milton Brothers, who is also a doctor.

Speaking of years, the interviewee is asked how old she is. "I'm fine, thank you," she replies.

Joyce Brothers is sometimes described as a psychologist, sometimes as a celebrity. For over 20 years now, she has been ministering to the national psyche in print and video, telling everyone what she thinks about everything and getting paid a bundle for it. Somewhere along the line she turned into Middle America's psychological sibyl and the question is how. "I won't attempt to define myself," she says. But she will say that scarcely a day has gone by in two decades that she has not been on the air in some form or another dispensing advice, and that in the ever-shifting lexicon of teen-age slang the word for "psychologist among some adolescents is "Joyce." She ranks among the top 10 admired people on all sorts of polls, she notes, and believes that we have her pioneering efforts at mass-market counseling to thank for the televised advice, radio call-in programs and telephonic consulting services available these days.

Psychologist Brothers, who lives in Fort Lee, N.J. during the week, and on her New York State farm on weekends, has a syndicated newspaper column seven days a week. And a daily radio show. And a monthly column in a woman's magazine. She does two pieces a week for a television station in Los Angeles and, every three months, a "mini-documentary" that runs five minutes a day for five days.

In March there will be available for syndication 65 half-hour television shows featuring her discussing 65 different topics. And in New York, you can dial a special number courtesy of the telephone company and get 57 seconds of her talking about how to quit smoking, lose weight or deal with impending pregnancy. At least 40,000 people a day dial the number, she says. "There is a lot more searching for answers, these days," she says. "And a tot more answers, too.

But we're missing friends and kinship roles. So you rent a friend. Like Dr. Joyce Brothers." 1 The daughter of two New York lawyers, she went on to get her Ph.D. in psychology from Columbia in 1953, and she started getting what she wanted out Of life early.

She got "the fame and fun and money of this new-to-me world of mass communications" by winning $125,000 on the TV game show, "The $64,000 Question" in 1955 as an expert on boxing. Three years later she had her own television show and has never left the air. She talks about "just everything." She talks about anxiety with the Denver Dental Association, and the psychology of color with a carpet company and American lifestyles with Armstrong Cork. She travels with a "big bag on wheels" that is stuffed with all the reading material from which she gets her grist and has four college girls clipping, filing and cross-indexing it all back home in Delicious LOBSTER- SHRIMP Sauteed in Butter and Herbs.
