Just never knew about Paul's involvement. He was quite a guy... and it saddened me to hear he'd gone. Rest easy, Mr. Winchell... You were one of the greats of my childhood and countless others.

The next was at the start of the clubhouse meeting and Jerry would ask Knucklehead to call roll. Jerry talking to Knucklehead <> "Hey Knucklehead call roll" Knucklehead: "Here roll here roll" What a great program. It's to bad all the tapes of the show were destroyed in the big fire at CBS TV years ago.

I remember looking in Peter Marshall's book about the original Hollywood Squares, and both Paul and Jerry appeared on the Halloween/Storybook episode dressed as Holmes (Jerry) and Watson (Paul). As for me, my fond memories of him are as Tigger and Gargamel.
