HOLLYWOOD — Alexis
Smith gives “Dallas” a major
shot of class next month when
she becomes a regular cast
member of that band of two-
timing, bed-jumping Texas ‘oil-
konaires.’
But then Alexis would add a
touch of class to the court of St.
James.
She, along with Audrey Hep
burn, Grace Kelly and Candice
Bergan, epitomized Holly
wood’s concept of glacial, aristo
cratic beauties whose very pres
ence enhanced the style and
grace of any situation.
Unsually, too, these paragons
of selective breeding tradition
ally were dressed in high style
gowns, rich furs and extrava
gant jewelry.

FOR SALE
All looked regally at home
wearing tiaras, as compared to,
say, Teri Garr, Debra Winger
and Sissy Spacek.
For whatever reason, the
cool, elegant, statuesque lady
has disappered from films and
television, perhaps because they
are a disappearing breed in
these days of feminism, punk
fashions and sexual promiscu-
ity.
Alexis will bring her consid
erable hauteur to “Dallas” in the
role of Lady Jessica Montford, a
titled former Texan who re
turns from England to visit her
brother, Glayton Farlow, played
by Howard Keel.
Lady Montford will, inevi
tably, run afoul of J.R. Ewing,
the baddest man in Texas. God
only knows the consequences.
The role and the series are a
great lark for Alexis, a star in
movies and on stage since the
1940s.
She disconcerted “Dallas”
producers. Never having
watched the nighttime soap,
Alexis had no idea of who
played whom, the story lines or
even whether Sue Ellen was
fooling around with her kid’s
swimming instructor.
“There’s a lot of mystery
working on ‘Dallas,’” Alexis said
during a noon break in the
MGM commissary. “They don’t
tell you in advance what your
character is up to or what plans
they have for her.
“Sometimes they take a page
or two out of the script so you
won’t give away any secrets. But
I can tell you this much, Lady
Montford is up to no good.”
Alexis is no stranger to play
ing heavies, but she never lost
her grand lady image, even in
bitchy, sinister roles.
Her introduction to elegant
parts began in 1941 with Errol
Flynn and Fred MacMurray in
“Dive Bomber” at Warner Bros.
Milo Anderson provided an ex
quisite wardrobe, and Alexis’
screen image was established
forever after.
A rare occasion when she
wasn’t splendidly wardrobed
was as Ronald Reagan’s jeans-
clad leading lady in “Stallion
Road” (1947). Her friendship
with the president endures.
Last year he invited her to the
White House.
“I realized I hadn’t lost my
image when someone asked me
what sort of woman I was going
to play in ‘Dallas,’” Alexis said.
“I replied, ‘Well, I play this very
rich woman...’ It seems I've
played them all my life.
“I was never an ingenue. Di
minutive women and girls play
ingenues. It becomes them to be
shy and retiring. But when
you’re tall — and I’m 5-foot-9
— you can’t convincingly be coy
and demure.”
Alexis is well aware of her on
screen, off-screen ice princess
reputation, a sort of unapproa
chable demeanor that keeps
people at a distance. Those who
know her, however, are de
lighted with her sense of humor
and amiability.

United Press International
GEORGETOWN — Two
respiratory technicians testified
Monday that vocational nurse
Genene Jones exhibited unpro
fessional excitement and ag
gressiveness in an emergency
involving a baby who suddenly
went limp and stopped breath
ing in an ambulance.
Testimony in Jones’ murder
trial in the death of 15-moth-
old Chelsea McClellan, who al
legedly was killed with an injec
tion of a potent muscle relaxer,
continued to focus on other
children who also experienced
unexplained medical emergen
cies while in Jones’ care.
Witnesses testifying about an
incident involving 1-month-old
Brandy Benites fueled prosecu
tors’ speculation that Jones
caused emergencies in several
babies because she enjoyed the
thrill and sense of heroism
went with reviving them.
