At nearly every campaign rally, part of the crowd will be mumbling to itself all during the candidate's speech. This usually is the lunatic fringe. DECALS Unlike the main segment of the body politic, which goes in strongly for political bumperstickers, lunatic fringers tend to stick decals on their windshields. Or, if they don't have autos, they stick decals on their sunglasses.

SHOES Above the ankles, lunatic fringers dress pretty much like everyone else. But their footwear gives them away. Almost invariably, they wear shoes that are completely inappropriate for the occasion. Deck shoes at formal weddings, hiking boots at yacht parties, etc. So much for recognition factors.

Now to the meat of my survey on the two main issues of the campaign. On the lust issue raised by Playboy's interview with Carter, the lunatic fringe will support any candidate who promises to refrain from premarital and extramarital interviews. On the racial joke issue raised by Earl Butz, the lunatic fringe favors a return to the "little moron" jokes of the 1940s. Mahanoy City ambulance drivers Friday Clyde Schaeffer, 773-3655 Saturday Robert Wagner, 773-2131 Sunday Richard Wagner, 773-1767 Reg. 15.90 By DICK WEST WASHINGTON (UPI) A new but apparently already outdated Gallup Poll this week showed President Ford and Jimmy Carter running almost even.

Although the situation may have changed since the survey was taken, it illustrates why candidates must do more than cater to the large blocs of votes big labor, big business, big minorities, etc. In a truly close election, some tiny faction that ordinarily swings little weight politically could be the decisive factor. One such group that bears close watching as election day draws nigh is the so-called lunatic fringe. Thus far, strangely, none of the major polls has bothered to determine which way this small but highly opinionated bloc is leaning. In an effort to fill that void, I've spent several days stalking the lunatic fringe with notepad and tape recorder.

My findings in a moment. But first, a word about the difficulties of trying to take soundings along the periphery of thebody politic. For one thing, the lunatic fringe is badly fragmented. A voter who is on the lunatic fringe of one issue may be at or near the center on other issues. This schizoid tendency is incompatible with coherent opinion sampling.

Further clouding the picture is a reluctance on the part of many lunatic fringers to admit they are part of the lunatic fringe. In the absence of a saliva test, there is no scientific means of isolating and identifying fringe voters. Within these limitations, however, there are several distinguishing traits that aid in recognition.

I used to do Judy Garland, you know." Among the newer circle of pals were art dealer Cliff Lambert, Grace Bobbins, (Harold, home toiling on his next novel) Jimmy Doolittle, and Glenn Ford.

Princess Grace and her Prince Rainier aren't the only tourist attractions in Monte Carlo. Very conspicuous is Ringo Starr sporting a full beard and a semi-bald head his pate was originally shaved as dean as Telly Savalas'. What's more, the ex-Beatle has announced his engagement to Nancy Andrews, the California model named in his divorce 16 months ago.

The pair has taken up residence in a swank apartment near the casino. "I've established residence here as a tax exile from England," is what the man says. He doesn't say why there's hair on his chin and practically none on his head. Well-known Beverly Hills divorce lawyer Marvin Mitch elson his current case is the tangled Mel Tonne-Jan Scott split and custody battle has a book coming out on his trade. The title? "Made in Heaven, Settled in Court" That's it for today.

HOLLYWOOD (KFS) At the party Michael O'Hara hosted for bride Zsa Zsa at Dubrovnik's Yugoslavian Restaurant because he wanted her and 40 friends to sample some of his native dishes, he was asked how a Yugoslav comes by the name of O'Hara? 'I changed it from Kalergerareich, Mlhan Kalergerareich," he said. But why O'Hara? 'Well, it beats Smith," he answered, laughing. Zsa Zsa, afloat in a goldthread caftan, slipped her arm through his and said in her best fractured English, "And Zsa Zsa O'Hara beats Zsa Zsa Kalergera what's the rest of it, dolling?" The musical group was equally mixed up. They played mostly Russian music during the evening. The romance of this Gabor and the tall, dark and good-looking lawyer began when he took over her divorce from Jack Ryan, his immediate predecessor as a Z.Z.

husband, "All other lawyers I've had were dumbskas," said the beaming bride. "How could I help falling in love with him? He is so bright and handsome." The party was a family-and-close-friends affair. On hand were sister Eva Gabor Jameson (Frank out of town); daughter Franceses Hilton, Bundy Solt (whom Zsa Zsa has known since arriving in Hollywood) and Sidney Gullaroff, the beauty expert, taking time off keeping Lisa Minnelli looking glamorous in "New York, New York."
