SOMA? WINONA NEWS Week's TV Movies Sunday, April 18,1905 WINONA SUNDAY NEWS 7 TV Mailbag By STEVEN H. SCHEUER QUESTION 1 heard something recently and I was wondering if there was any truth to it at all. I heard that Ringo Starr of "The Beatles" is really a girl with a wig and that John, Paul and George are Ringo's children. Also, that Sophie Tucker and Joe E. Lewis are Ringo's parents.

Is any of this true? B.A.S. Perkasie, Pa. ANSWER Your rumor-constructed family tree staggers even the most way-out imagination. Of course, none of it is true, but it's one of the best laughs -I've had in weeks. QUESTION Wayne Newton is my favorite singer and he appears on TV once in awhile, but not enough to satisfy me.

I ll bet his other fans feel the same way. What can we do about it? C.K., East Keans-burg, New Jersey. ANSWER There isn't much you can do about it. Most popular singers have a very busy schedule of concerts, night club engagements, and recording sessions which leaves them very little time for TV work, other than an occasional guest appearance. i fl Hfcir fc fa vi fair SATURDAY 7:30 AMBUSH AT TOMAHAWK GAP, John Hodiak.

Herman Works on Swim Fin Munsters Visit Marineland on TV Someone III? By CHARLES VVITBECK It's become a spring custom for CBS to visit California's Marineland and have series stars say hello to the whales and porpoises. This Easter Sunday, celebrating the successful monster TV season, the happy Munster family and the Christy Minstrels sing under water, watch the jumping mammals and crack jokes about man eating sharks, ugly barracuda and the electric eel, fish favorites of the eerie clan. By now the fish act is very familiar to viewers, but apparently this hardly matters for the show has become a springtime ritual. The Munsters might pep things up with friendly, horrible Herman Munster saying things like: "Just smell that fresh air. Isn't it terrible?" TALL, LONG-JAWED Fred Gwynne, who plays sweet Herman, is perfectly cast as a porpoise observer.

He can never pass up an aquarium. The actor-sculptor-artist is secretly working on a new type of swim fin and he likes to visit the underwater conservatories to gaze at the locomotion of the porpoise. "My new type of swim fin should make you go faster with less effort," says Gwynne. "I have a patent pending." The new web foot marvel will be known as The Gwynne Fin, and its contour is still secret Mr. Gwynne merely gives a long, amused look when queried.

The fin has been on his brain ever since world records were broken at Yale some years ago in the butterfly stroke when swimmers used the dolphin kick for the first time. Fred began puttering around with fins of assorted sizes and shapes and soon had a working model. "My first fin floated and I sank," says the inventor. Model pumber two accompanied Mr. Gwynne to New York's exclusive Racquet Club pool for a tryout.

"AN OLD MAN getting a rub-down must have thought he was seeing things," says Fred, "as I passed through coated with talcum powder wearing my special fins. I slipped in the pool and found I could hardly move with the clumsy things. "They broke a moment later, and I slowly slunk by the old man again, an apparition in wet talcum powder. I often wondered what happend to that man. Did he go out and get drunk?" Now, eight years later, the Gwynne Fin undergoes its final test shortly in a California pool, and if Fred doesn't sink, he may have a new sideline besides acting, drawing and sculpting.

"Actually no one's done anything in the fin field in a long time," says Fred. "A break- (Continued on Pag 13) they bring beauty and joy to your favorite shut-in.
