TV’s Busy Peg Lynch Leads Triple Life As Actress, Writer And Wife Peg Lynch, a blue-eyed brunette who is more widely known to tele- vision audiences as Ethel of “Ethel and Albert,” recently met an old friend she hadn’t seen in years. After a brief, highly affectionate greeting, Peg rushed on to rehear- .| sal, saying, “Darling, we must get together for a good long talk — sometime nexi fall.” Miss Lynch really does intend to look up her old friend next fall. The problem in her life is that she not only plays Ethel on her tele- vision show, but writes the half- hour script as well. This makes her one of the busiest women in the world. “I write the script on Mondays and Tuesday, like mad,” she ex- plains, ‘‘and then we start rehear- sing Wednesday, and keep it up until the show Saturday _ night. Then I go home to Stamford, see my husband and baby, worry a- round — and by Sunday night come back to New York to the apartment here and start beating out another script!” Peg thinks she’s trying to do too much, but doesn’t know how to get out of the center of the snowball she’s rolled up around herself. “Ethel and Albert’, Peg’s week- ly and believable peek into the lives‘ of an average couple inymod- erately good circumstances,’ last fall, came of age as a full-fledged television show complete with sponsor after a break-in period of two years on Kate Smith’s day- time show. Before that, it had been a perenially popular network radio show. Peg originated the idea when she worked on station KATE in Albert Lea, Minn, She doesn’t really approve of plots. “Events in real life aren’t plot- ted,” she says. “Crises and cir- cumstances are just strung toge- ther and somehow they work out.” In real life, she loves the 1728 home she and her engineer hus- band, Norwegian-born Odd Ron- ning bought a couple of years ago in Stamford, Conn., not far from the home of Alan Bunce, his wife and three children. Bunce, almost since the beginning, has played Al- bert in the show — and one of the hardest jobs Peg had is convinc- ing her credulous fans that they | aren’t really man and wife. The | Ronnings have a 5-year-old daugh- ter, Elsie. E Ethel and Albert don’t have chil- dren in the TV show, although they had a child, Suzy, on the radio version. Peg is cannily hazy about specific details which might inter- fere with this identification thing. Age, geographic location and other such items aren’t brought up. “It’s funny,” said Peg, “some Stamford people are absolutely certain Albert is a commuter — and viewers in the Midwest are just-as-certain that he’s copied from some one in their tewn.” The American Bible Society dis- tributes Bibles or portions of Bi-, bles in 1,077 languages and dia- lects.
