Fran,
I had the same problem. Consensus on the list was JB Weld, a two part epoxy
available very inexpensively from Autozone and nearly any other parts supply
house. Clean the cracks thoroughly, dry, mix the JB Weld, and putty in with
a popsickle stick. When it's done hardening, it easily sands to the
contours of the wheel. Buy a steering wheel cover and you'll never see the
repairs.
Have fun!
