Jonathan's TV Talent Runs In Winters Family When the new .Jonathan Wint ers Show opens on NBC television on October 9. it's eertain to have at least two viewers. Mr. and Mrs. Jonathan Winters, Waynes ville part-time residents, say that since they see their son only about | once in two years, they have to i keep track of him via television. "Except for those noises, which , are definitely his own invention," i says the senior Mr. Winters, "We I think Johnny's gift for mimicry ' comes straight from his grand I - ._j ? : . .J??? miner. c "My father was great at imitat- I ing people's ways of speaking, so much so that he made a good ' many enemies. We nearly not into ? trouble at his bank?lie was presi- I dent and I was cashier?because 1 we'd get together and take off 1 some of the eharactcrs that eame ' in. Sometimes I'd phone him and ; use the voice of one of our fussy ' customers. He'd know who I was. of course, and come back with all the things he'd have liked to say 1 to the man but didn't dare. That 1 was a lot of fun?until the time j' the caller actually was the sour faced customer!"' On one occasion Waynesville's . Mr. Winters called Johnny long distance using an ultra-British ac- , i cent. He kept him guessing as to ( what on earth his dignified foreign caller could want until he decided ; the toll would outrun his pocket- j book. Johnny found himself as a | "ham," his father says, while he j [ was in the Marines aboard the t carrier, "Bonhortime Richard." "Be- i ; tween Kamikaze strikes," says Mr. < j Winters, "they had him announce i | f ights over the ship's public ad- | dress system. He started hamming ( lit up and when he got out of ? serf ice he knew lie'd found his ? career. I After winning an amateur night > contest in a theater in Dayton, ! t Ohio, he got a job on a Dayton , radio station. His show, "Winters' ' Wonderland." got him an offer i from a Columbus, Ohio, television i station. The responsibilities of a wife ; sad small son. Jonathan H. Win- i ers. IV, sent him to New York n search of bigger opportunities. \fler the usual struggle for a 'ootbold, he found spots on such .hows as Arjhur Godfrey's, Steve Mien's and Gary Moore's. Hg ippeared 27 times with Moore. Finally he has achieved a show )f his own and is now very much occupied with a team of writers, me from Hollywood and one from Mew York, in whipping his material ,nto shape for his October open ing. I Since his son has attained na ional fame, Mr. Winters some imes finds himself in an embar -assing position. He tells us that in one of his trips between Way lesville and Ohio he stopped in LinVille for a golf game. As the ?ourse was crowded, he played with a young doctor and his wife. The couple introduced themselves, aut on hearing that their opponent vas "Jonathan Winters," the doc tor glared. He knew better; he .vas a regular viewer of Jonathan Winters' performances. Not until Vlrs. Winters convinced the doc tor's wife that her husband had just as good a right to the name as did his well known son would lie doctor so much as exchange a word with the "Imposter." Mr. Winters modestly hopes that Johnny will become famous some Jay. "He's got that gift of mimicry that runs in the family," he ex plains. "One evening I was watch ing television while Johnny was ?n. A lady who was a stranger to me said, 'Doesn't he have a won derful Southern accent? He Just must have been horn in the Deep South.' "Yes, ma'am," I told her. South ern Ohio, that is." renee Davis is named general chairman and Mrs. ilowell Bry soa publicity chairman. ESC Cracks Down On Claim Cheats RALEIGH ? It s just like ram ming your heaii against a brick tvail. or shoveling sand against Ihe tide. That's the conclusion reached by those unfortunate few who try to beat the Employment Security Commission out of benefit pay ments when they're not eligible for .inemployment insurance checks. The Commission has a specially trained watchdog crew that puts the skids under any person with 'raud in mind. This fraud detection and pre vention unit brought 1,558 cheat trs to grief last year alone. When convicted of fraud, a person is sub ject to a fine of $20-$50, or 30 lays in jail. Further, the courts nay order that the Commission be ?opaid or the Commission deducts he overpayments from any fu ure benefits to that person. The law provides that an in iividual convicted of fraud shall tot be entitled to receive bene Its for one year beginning with he first day of any benefit week n which fraud is proved. Maurice Williams is deputy in he Waynesville area.
