Music Theater Public radio, WLFM coordinate services A rearrangement of programming on WPNE, FM 89.3, the Wisconsin Public Radio station for the region, and WLFM, FM91.1, the Lawrence University station, will go into effect Saturday.

He said there also will be more localization, beginning with "Morning Edition," airing from 5:30 to 9 a.m.

on WLFM and 5:30 to 7:40 a.m. on WPNE. "We will have a local host talking about the news, weather and school closings," he said.

(AP) "An Early Frost," an NBC movie about a family facing their son's battle with AIDS, was among the favorites expected to be nominated today for an Emmy. The 38th annual nominations also were likely to include CBS' "Nobody's Child," "Death of a Salesman" and "Second Serve," ABC's "Alex: The Life of a Child," and NBC's "The Deliberate Stranger." Two winners from 1985, CBS' "Cag-ney Lacey" and NBC's "The Cosby Show" were expected to be nominated again as best drama series and best comedy series.

It also was likely that the friendly rivalry would be renewed between Tyne Daly, twice a winner as Mary Beth Lacey, and Sharon Gless, nominated for her role as Chris Cagney but never a winner. Once again, Bill Cosby took himself out of consideration as best comedy actor because he does not believe there should be competition among performers. However, nominations are expected to go to his show, its cast, writers and directors. The nominations were to be announced at the Pasadena Civic Auditorium by the Academy of Television Arts Sciences. Aidan Quinn starred in NBC's "An Early Frost" as the young man who returns home to tell his family that he is a homosexual and dying of AIDS.

The provocative TV movie, one of the first to deal with the deadly disease, also starred Ben Gazzara, Gena Rowlands, Sylvia Sidney and John Glover. Other possible nominees from movies, miniseries and series were: Mario Thomas as Marie Baiter in "Nobody's Child," a drama about a woman who spent 20 years in a mental institution.
