This looks like it was an earlier,
more '70s appearance of Sutton.

Along with more familiar contestants and two Vegas stars, pitcher Don Sutton appears.  Since it's the PM edition, there are two audience-matches, with double the potential money for the celebrity wheel.

Richard Paul might be the least familiar panelist this episode (well, maybe tied with Braverman), but he was at the time recognizable for Carter Country among other things, and he would guest on M*A*S*H a couple months after this; he often played police, ministers, and other figures of authority, including Jerry Falwell in a TV-movie.  I'm actually more surprised to see Jamie Lee Curtis back.  The episode is also notable for Gene breaking down a wall.  (The man seems to have had anger issues, or at least hostility towards the set.)

Rita Moreno is the "new kid" and, as Brett points out, having spacy Bill Daily be the one to show her how to play is not the best idea.  If I haven't mentioned it before, this seems to be the year that the composites of faces really got going.

M*A*S*H: Dear Sigmund

Sidney writes to Freud about the denizens of the 4077th.  Set during March ('52?) since it includes the first day of Spring.  It's implied that Donald has cheated on Margaret, although there's no follow-up.  I like the twist that BJ is the practical joker.

Jennifer Davis Westmore makes her first of nine appearances as a nameless Nurse.  Charles Frank is Capt. Hathaway here, the first of two roles.  And a pre-Vegas Bart Braverman plays Private Habib.  Kellye Nakahara (Yamato) and Sal Viscuso (this time onscreen as Patient John) return.  Alda wrote and directed this one.
