SCOFFS AT DIETING Movie Star Refuses to Starve

Margaret Livingston . . . eats what she likes

BY DAN THOMAS, NEA Service Writer T TOLLYWOOD, Cal., May 3. X X *.jf you want to be a success in the movies, don’t diet.” So says Margaret Livingston, redheaded screen vampire who vamps them so that they stay vamped. As far as eating goes, Margaret should know whereof she speaks. She has been in pictures about eight years and has tried about every recipe for success. That she has attained it is evidenced by the fact that she appeared in twenty-three pictures last year. “I tried dieting until I learned that it didn't pay.” Margaret told me. “Just, like most of the girls in Hollywood, T was under the false impression that I had to be many pounds under normal weight in order to look well in front of the camera.

“I now know that isn't the case. Os course, a girl can’t allow herself to get fat, but she can keep her weight down by exercising as well as by dieting. “Dieting brings lines into your face that, make you appear old. And it’s much worse to look old than a bit, heavy on the screen. Besides that, it ruins your health. I dieted until my doctor told me to start eating everything er else my health would be ruined within three months. “I always have liked to eat, so you can imagine the enjoyment I get cut of eating a full meal and know that I am obeying doctor's orders.” Mount Lassen volcano, in California. is the only one that, has erupted in this country during this century.
