I 236-9790 By STEPHEN FORD NEW YORK (NEA) -Beatles are everywhere. Even the least-informed among us knows by now Paul McCartney's 31-concert Wings tour is under way. And Ringo Starr's recording contract with Atlantic Records, ending his 16-year association with Capitol, has commandeered a few headlines, too. Last week it was learned that George Harrison will tour the United States late this autumn. No word to date on John I.ennon's future plans.

The greatly publicized Wings tour, their American debut and McCartney's first performance in this country since 1966 while still with the Beatles, was delayed briefly when guitarist Jimmy McCulloch fractured a finger. When tickets went on sale two weeks ago, the event captured airtime on the nation's myriad of "action news" programs. TV camera crews swooped down from helicopters to film thousands of McCartney fans gathered for the cultural ritual of the box office. Ticketron headquarters in Los Angeles sold 2,000 seats in nine minutes. The L.A.

Forum, where Wings will appear for two shows, sold 40.000 tickets in less than four hours. At New York's Madison Square Garden, throngs spilled fraooaxpoa oeaooea KrtfrtflfellT Hrfii 1 VA GAB0R WIGS' 5 LMIMrM tl. i. d.u. r.
