He says he can lose five or six pounds in a day or two, simply by fasting. "The 'Shaft' role called for a burly guy, so I ate up a storm until my cheeks filled out," he says. "It takes more character to play a heavy," he says. "With me, the less dialogue, the better.

If I have ten words in a line, I try to cut it to five. Silence is menace." Phillips, who was born in Chicago, is one-quarter Chippewa, qualifying him for the Indian characters he often portrays. After four years in pro football he spent a year on the Illinois State Police Force. Then he went to Los Angeles, where he was an undercover officer for 10 years. On being an actor, he says: "My life as a cop was always being involved in other people's problems.

I love acting because it's complete self-indulgence." "SlNMAIUI 10 osoi. Aries March 21-April 19) You will get a sudden urge to get in touch with one you haven't seen lately. Do so.

His face is his fortune, and tall, dark and evil-looking Robert Phillips says he wouldn't want to change it, for villainous roles are his specialty. A onetime undercover cop who was the model for the "Tightrope" television series in the 1960's, Phillips got into acting while serving as that show's technical adviser.

Since then, he's appeared in more 150 television programs and 27 feature films, all as a heavy. He does it again, portraying a professional killer in "The Capricorn Murders" on "Shaft" part of the "CTV Sunday Mystery Movie" telecasting Sunday. And he wouldn't have it any other way, saying: "I have no desire: to do comedy, to be a leading man or to play good-guy roles. I tried it once as a good cop in a documentary. It was boring." Small wonder Phillips is happy being rotten.
