The music is crazy-gone, and as for emcee Jim Lounsbury, he’s the most— to say the least. We look forward to lots more every weekday at 4 P.M.— Cindy Gierke , Marilyn Marsh, Chicago. Parks Sparks Argument Would you kindly settle an argu¬ ment that my mother and I are having about Bert Parks? She claims that he has appeared in past years as Super Circus ringmaster with Mary Hartline. I disagree. Who is right?— Esther An- guiano. East Chicago, Ind. [This is one case where mother does not know best. Bert has never ajjpeared on Super Circus.— Ed.] Seconds Objection We heartily agree with Ed Pazdur’s remarks in his “Personal to Joe Wil¬ son.” We enjoy Championship Bowling, but Joe does pad his commentary with too much talk. If we weren’t afraid of missing some vital information that Joe might provide, we would simply turn off the sound and watch the bowlers in silence.—Mr. and Mrs. J. Schneller, Chicago. Brickbats And Bouquets I wonder why the Home show both¬ ered to carry the Macy Thanksgiving Day Parade. Video-wise, it was only a series of commercials. Audio-wise, it was one long argument that went on between Arlene Francis and others. On the other hand. Channels 0 and 0 deserve a big thank you for the way they televised Chicago’s Santa Parade the same day.— Mrs. Robert Hammett, Lake Villa, 111. TV GUIDE A-4‘
