B 3 Actress Pads Paychek With Demonstrating Job By DOROTHEA M. BROOKS United Press International New York - IUPII - She can tell you first hand all about ivory poaching in Tangan yika, teach you to distinguish the bouquet of a really fine whisky or give you a rundown on investment opportunities in the boating field. Her name is Margaret An drews and, no, she isn't in formation clerk at the public library. Currently, she is hostess at Schcnely's scent-a-rama ex hibit in New York's Grand Central station, where in two weeks she has greeted 100,000 travelers, commuters and plain passersby, introducing them to the mysteries of ag ing whisky. Intrigued by glimpses of Miss Andrews' honey blonde head surrounded by would-be sniffers" as we made our usual commuter dash through the terminal, we decided to find out just what kind of young woman presides at such an exhibit. New Corps Miss Andrews, it turns out, is one of a growing corps of personable young carcerists mostly models and aspiring dancers and actresses - who fill in the time between as signments and pad the pay check by demonstrating, host essing, or just being on hand to brighten the scene at busi ness and industrial shows and public expositions such as the flower and boat shows. Approached during work ing hours - she puts in a reg' ular eight-hour day - Miss An drews was commendably loyal to her employer and this inter viewer now possesses a store of whisky miscellanea. Did you know, for instance, that evaporation and s o a k a g e claim up to 20 gallons of ev ery 50-gallon barrel of whisky over a 10-year aging period? During a coffee break, how ever, we got to know more about a most remarkable young woman who, it seems, has not had an idle moment since, as a high school fresh man in Hartford. Conn., she obtained her first professional I job, working with Allen Lud den on "Mind Your Manners," one of the first network radio panel shows. She admits readily her first love is the theater - and you just know you'll be hearing more of Margaret Andrews in her chosen field. In Africa She spent last fall in East Africa working in an adven-1 ture movie concerning ivory poaching in Tanganyika. Ten tatively titled "Lust For Ivory," the color film is sched uled for release this summer. In between her travels, Margaret has combined sum mer stock, an off-Broadway appearance as the lead in "the Egoists," an adaptation of a French play by Francois Mau riac, a stint in television soap opera, with more than 50 trade show jobs for as many different companies. She says she enjoys her hostess chores. "First of all, I like people. And it's a good way to main tain confidence In your abil ity to perform. Where would you find a larger, more di verse audience?"
