Senior-Center Residents Debate New Anchorwoman's Ethnicity For Fifth Straight Evening
ST. PETERSBURG, FL—Ferndale Senior Center residents debated new Channel 27 Action News anchorwoman Sonya Luntz's ethnicity for a fifth straight day Wednesday. Edward Bloch, 81, steadfastly held to his "Mexican" theory, while Muriel Simmons, 83, continued to lean toward Hawaiian or Indian. "If you ask me, she looks Oriental," said Jack McCallum, 79, watching Luntz on the 6 p.m. newscast. "Orientals have that shape to their face—I saw it in the war." Luntz's ethnicity will be put to an official senior-center vote Friday.
