2 MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Tuesday, April 15, 1958 Boredom Enemy of Youth Says Famous Movie Actress Br GAY PAULEY United Press Women's Editor New York OP "Bore dom is the enemy of youth. The woman who gets bored gets old very soon," says one of the screen's great beauties of all-time. Delores Del Rio apparent , Iy never had time for tedium. The Mexican actress who began her career in Holly wood 33 years ago when movies were still silents . has changed little from the the days she was a top box office attraction as a glamour girl. "I think staying young de pends a lot on your mental attitude," she said. "I'm never bored, I love life too much. I have never the time to sit. Good Skin From Within "I don't drink, I don't smoke, and I don't diet. I do eat properly. I think that physically you are what you eat. A good skin comes from within." The woman with the class ic Latin beauty was busy with a lunch of fresh fruit salad, cottage cheese and a glass of milk as we talked. Miss Del Rio, who is of medium height, said her fig ure hadn't altered through the years. "I weigh 125 pounds," she said. "For a Latin woman, that is slender. For you in the States, it is quite a great deal." The actress is m New i one for her first live dramatic per formance on television in CBS's "U. S. Steel Hour," April 23. It will be one of the few times American audiences have seen the actress since she quit Hollywood 14 years ago, disgusted "because they wouldn't let me act." Her first movie hit was the silent, "What Price Glory?" "It was a good thing it was silent," she laughingly ob served today. "I couldn't speak a word of English when I hit Hollywood."

Unable To Act "I loved the place, and the people," she said. "I have many friends there. But as an actress, I had to get out. "The day arrived when the important thing was that I have 20 or 25 changes of cos tumes in one picture. My last one, 'Journey Into Fear,' was the last straw." "I've not stopped making picxures," she said, "I just moved my work south of the border, and I have been able to do all the dramatic parts I wanted. The pictures don't have much distribution in the Stas, but they go all over Europe and South America."
