"And it's there. It's not as if you bad a bond issue. "For example," be added, "The Old Globe Repertory Theater in San Diego started out with a small community theater operation. Now they have a full time community theater and in the summertime, a fully professional Shakespearean festival with three plays in repertory pumps millions of dollars into the economy this is a theater about the same size as the Landers." Of the play he's currently directing be says, "I Do! I Do!" is a back breaker for the two actors. That's just next to the minimum number of people required to do "I think the audiences will be thrilled with it, I can't give any guarantees but it's a great show." Reservations for "1 Do! I Do!" can be made by calling 869-1334, between noon and 5 p.m.

"My sophomore year in college somebody talked me into appearing in Shaw's 'Man and and that was it! "All the time I'd spent in organic chemistry was down the drain." The actor-director has been on preliminary Emmy lists a "couple of times." be says, "but that's as far as it's gotten. I've been in some very fortunate roles on television, mostly because of my size." His actor's voice, be says, is the result of "I was blessed with the deep, optimum pitch, but I was a lisper, and the rest was work.

"This theater," he says of the Landers," is fabulous. I have a strong suspicion that the people of Springfield don't realize what they have. It's a community resource thats just incredible. "There are lots of towns this size that are trying to get the money to build one and we're talking about a couple of million dollars. "AND, they don't make them like that nothing gives you the acoustics that wood does wood is a wonderful sounding board.

I beard the orchestra in rehearsal, and they sound won and you're not getting paid very weU for it, that's what it amounts to," Fineberg added. Commenting on the greater number of male stars Fineberg said, 'Television has made it a man's business. It really is hard for the ladies." His own appraisal of the situation is that advertisers will buy the male stars since "consumers are the ladies, the ones who are buying, and they're more attracted to a strong male performance. What sells is a male star," he said. "Look at tv and you go down the list of people who've been on for 18 years and they're not really pretty Jim Arness, Bill Conrad they're the kind who last.

"It's surprising what film does to people really beautiful women will look terrible and a girl who may not be as striking will look great. "I've known Jacquie for more years than either of us cares to remember. We acted together many times the last was on 'Here Come The Her husband is a friend of mine. I've always admired Jacquie. She's an exceptional lady and, I think, a really fine actress.

She has, in large supply, star quality. "I've never seen her do a bad job!" Fineberg is originally from played a retardate. "1 get along extremely well with Jack Lord," he said. "For some reason TV Guide puts the 'rap' on him with at least one article a year. "That particular show is very difficult because they shoot a day week.

12 to 14 hours a day, it's very warm, of course, and there's a lot of physical activity. It's a murderous job." Asked about the temper of Hollywood before he left he said, "There's really very great concern on the coast that we're going to have a strike. Last season was hurt because of a three to four month writers' strike. "Again. Actors' Guild contract expires the end of June and the temper of Hollywood is very What it comes down to is that there's not enough work now that they're shooting 20 of the 39 segments of series.

"There's a rather substantial misconception of what residuals actors receive. They are at best, for someone who makes a 'halfway' decent salary, about 20 to 25 per cent of your original salary on a network replay. Network prime time re runs are based on 50 per rent of minimum plus 15 per cent of your salary with that salary limited to $1500 so the 'max' you can make is about another $150. "You're replacing yourself By PEGGY SOK1C SUN Writer Ron Fineberg attracts a lot of attention wherever be goes. He's 6'8" a massive mountain of a man with a rich bass voice and striking appearance.

Fineberg is in Springfield to direct close friend Jacqueline Scott, and Doyle McKinney in Springfield Little Theater's "I Do! I Do!" His home Is in Hollywood where he does a lot of acting and gets in as much directing as be "reasonably can and still make a living," he says. If it weren't for the fact that he'U be busy at the Landers for opening tonight, be could catch "Aces Up," on KOLR at 8:30, a pilot for a series in which be appears. He's guested on such series as "Hawaii Five-O." "Cannon," "Mission Impossible," "FBI," Fu," "Emergency," "Chase" and this season in "The Girl With Something Extra."
