From Sleeping Pill Dose
BOSTON, OP)—Actress Diana
Barrymore, 34, recovering yester
day from an overdose of sleeping
pills, told newsmen she planned
to return Thursday night to her
role in “Pajama Tops,” in which
she has been on tour.
She said, “I only tried to calm
my nerves.”
Miss Barrymore was taken
back to her hotel by her actor
husband, Robert Wilcox after re
maining overnight in the hospital.
She said she had been suffering
from a head cold for six months
and “I did take too many pheno
barbitol . . . for no reason at all
except that I’m exhausted. . . . I’m
supposed to take three a day.”
