WALTER SCOTT'S PERSONALITY PARADE Want the factsP Opinion? TruthP Write Walter Scott, Box 5001, Grand Central Station, New York, N.Y. 10163-5001 Full name will be used unless otherwise requested. Volume of mall makes personal replies Impossible. Mrs. Clinton with parents last summer in New York I was sorry to read last month that Hillary Clinton's father, Hugh Rodham, had died.

It got me to thinking: I saw all of Bill Clinton's family at the inauguration, but none of Hillary's. Is there some explanation for that? AM. Bruce, Dunedin, Fla. A The Rodhams were out in full force for the father and mother, Dorothy, 73, as well as her brothers, Hugh Jr. and Tony, and their wives.

Mrs. Clinton was thinking of moving her parents from Little Rock to the Washington area to be closer to her. Since the death of her father at 82, however, plans for her mother have been put on hold. Reggae star Peter Tosh was shot in Jamaica in 1987. Were his killers ever caught? Fitzsimmons, Arvada, Colo.

A In June 1988, after five minutes of deliberation, a jury found Dennis Lobban, 30, guilty of killing Tosh and two other men. Sentenced to hang, he appealed and will get a new trial. Tosh (real name: Winston Hubert Macintosh) was Reggae star Peter Tosh celebrating the release of an album when three gunmen burst into his home outside Kingston. After ransacking the house, they shot the 42-year-old singer, his common-law wife, Marlene Brown, and five friends. Lobban was identified by Brown, one of the four survivors, and other witnesses.

A second suspect was acquitted for lack of evidence, and there have been no further arrests. I am fascinated by the gorgeous young actress Adrienne Shelly, who has appeared in such offbeat films as "The Unbelievable Truth," "Trust" and "Hexed." What can you tell us about her? Steven Johnson, Los Angeles, Calif. A Adrienne Shelly was born in the New York City borough of Queens, raised in suburban Long Island and lost her father at age 12. "I was always a quiet kid," she recalls, "but put me in a play, and I was this little noisemaker." Shelly dropped out of Boston University in her junior year to find work in the New York theater. Now 27, the actress is a 5-foot-l ball of energy with six movies to her credit and another, "Roadflower," due out later this year.

Gan you tell us what happened to the '70s group ABBA Are they working on anything new? And what has become of Agneta Faltskog and Anni-Frid Lyngstad? Any chance for a reunion? Teresa Fedele, Williamsport, Pa. A Don't hold your breath for a revival by the singing Swedes. In 1979, just as the well- scrubbed foursome were becoming big in America, Bjorn Ulvaeus divorced Agneta Faltskog. Benny Andersson and "Frida" Lyngstad split two years later. Though their ex-wives are now out of the picture, Andersson, 46, and Ulvaeus, 48, are working on a new musical called "The Emigrants." The pair previously collaborated on the Broadway musical "Chess." ABBA in 1979: Bjorn, Agneta, Anni-Frid and Benny (l-r) Please tell us about Klaus Maria Brandauer, the foreign-born actor who appeared in "Russia House and "White Fang." He seems under- appreciated in this country.

Is he more highly regarded in Ciccone, Newport Beach, Calif. A In Europe, Brandauer is regarded as a versatile actor of both stage and screen. Pudgy, baldish and short of frame, however, he isn't your typical American leading man. In this country, he's best known as the villain in the James Bond film "Never Say Never Again" and for his role as Meryl Streep's husband in "Out of Africa," which earned him an Oscar nomination as Best Supporting Actor of 1985. Brandauer was bora in 1944 in Austria, where he lives with his wife, Karin.

He also has a son, Christian, 30. The actor currently is working on the film "Mario and the Magician," based on a story by Thomas Mann. In addition to starring, he co-authored the screenplay and is directing, Brandauer with Meryl Streep in film Out of Africa We recently returned from the British Isles, where we hired a car and had to drive on the "wrong side of the road. How many other countries require you to drive on the left? S.R., Denver, Colo.
