They could be tragic, but not to this lively young couple In love. The two of them came here re cently for a delayed honeymoon and to promote her latest movie, "Chief Crazy Horse," in which Suzan plays an Indian maiden. A Tactful Offense "I call it 'tactful offense'," Dick said, referring to the way Suzan has learned to put people at ease about her artificial leg. "Some people become very uncomfortable when they're around a person who has had something unfortunate happen to them," Suzan explained. Her right leg was amputated above the knee a year ago after an unsuccessful 10-month fight againsth cancer, which devel oped after a fall during the film ing of a movie. She and Dick were marired three months later. She Walks Gracefully Suzan walks gracefully now with her artificial leg, although when she's tired she limps and occasionally at home or in her hotel room here she used crutches. "The minute you don't walk like a Powers model, with an ab solutely glass walk, people think of your legs," she said. "That does make me kind of mad some times. The same oeonle never think of their own walking pat tern. They may have a terrible gait." But if she spends anv time feeling sorry for herself, it doesn t show in her conversation or her obviously happy compan- lonsmp with her husband. They have more plans for the future than most couples. "We go dancing together, and 111 be able to ride horseback, Suzan said. "There's a girl who has two wooden legs who rides horseback. I unSerstand they have a terrible time with her, though. She's always scraping the paint off her legs on the stirrups and they have to keep touching them up." Jo Meet Cebu swamp.

After watching some top flight career women in action here, Nicole Milinaire, television pro ducer, mother of four children and a lively, curvaceous blonde, left for France a little disillu sioned. "They dress well," Nicole said of American career women, "but they don't smile much." At the age of 33, her own amazing career qualifies Nicole to judge just how much tension and unsmiling hard work goes into an executive's job. "Is big mistake," said the pro ducer, who occasionally . has trouble with English, "to think French women don't understand business. The big difference be tween us is that American wom en are good businesswomen and they look it. Soft and Gentle "In France, we are good busi nesswomen, but we try to look soft and gentle . . . how you say? Like a home wife. But we know very well what we want." Nicole knew nothing about putting together a television show when she met Sheldon Reynolds, TV director and pro ducer, in Stockholm, Sweden, several yeras ago. He invited her to the set where they were film ing "Foreign Intrigue." "I was fascinated by what went on behind the cameras," she said. "When I get a chance to learn about it, I work day and night to learn." Married at 17, a member, of the French resistance during the war, jailed briefly by the Ges tapo and finally separated from her husband after the war, Nicole had started her own fab ric business when she abandoned ENROLL NOW Spring Term Begins March 28 DAY CLASSES-Monday thru Friday 9 to 4 Secretarial and Accounting Courses EVENING CLASSES Monday and Thursday - 7 to 10 p.m. Public Speaking Business English Accounting College Spelling Typewriting Business Mathematics Shorthand Legal Procedures Business Machines: IBM Electric Typewriting; Marchant, Friden, and Monroe Calculators, and Dictaphone.

"I am a woman and IJntend to stay a woman," she said firm ly. "Here the woman gives or ders to the men when they work. Not in France. You suggest something in such a way that a man does it, but you let him think he had a chance to make up his own mind." . The effect of our female ag gressiveness in business is tell ing on men, Nicole added sadly. "I stand In front of my hotel waiting fora taxi today," she said, "and" when one pulls up I step to get in and a man runs in front of me and jumps in. I couldn't believe it. Next time I be with a man who also wants a taxi, I'm going to rush for it too. But this is very bad thing for men. "Everybody competes so much in business. Your women should be more content to work hard at jobs to make the man above them look good. Then women show the men that having a good time is important too. : "You work too hard here at making money. In France, when you have money enough you stop working. Here you see a man who is 50 and a millionaire and he still works. . You don't know why."
