Paul Lynde Impersonation Lost On Daughter's Friends

WAKEFIELD, MA— Sarah Ammons, 14, expressed befuddlement Monday, when, during a ride
to school, her father attempted to entertain her and several friends with an impromptu
impersonation of late comedian and Hollywood Squares regular Paul Lynde. "The
next time I have a daughter, I hope it's a boy!" Bob Ammons, 41, bleated nasally in
an imitation of the once-popular pop-culture reference. "Paul Lynde." Added
Ammons: "Center square, usually sat between George Gobel and Rose Marie? Voice of
Templeton the rat?" After dropping the girls off at school, Ammons stared into his
car's rear-view mirror at the crow's feet developing around his eyes.
