So by this fall, a more powerful 240-kilowatt transmittej-beaming from a new omni-directional antenna on the station's tower off Rolling Road in Woodlawn will triple Channel 54's power.

"The goal is to achieve signal parity with the VHF says Marshall, meaning WNUV ought to come in for most viewer as well as channels 2, 11, and 13 (and even, although Marshall did not say so, rival Channel 45). And in solving the transmission problem, Marshall says ABRY Communications, which formally took control following FCC approval of the S20-million purchase in March, sees Baltimore as "a fantastic opportunity" to fill a broadcasting niche.

ABRY Communications' principals include Marshall and partners Andrew Banks and Royce Yudkoff of Boston. Channel 54 is the media organization's first and "flagship" purchase, but the group is also seeking stations elsewhere. Program manager Dale Snyder says Channel 54's fare will continue to be strong on movies each night, with weekly "stunts" that package thematically similar movies, such as this week's "No Wimps Week" of action films.

Both are family men (Phil has a 4-year-old son and another child on the way).

The new "Mission Impossible" series, filmed in Australia, was a stepchild of the writer's strike. Paramount needed a show that could go on without a script. They pulled the old "Mission" because it had a built-in baby-boomer audience and, importantly, could be updated by using new locales and high-tech equipment without changing any dialogue preventing union trouble. "And then the strike ended. Bam.

So they had a great concept and no need for it," smiled Phil. "Fortunately, they decided to go with it, but to use all new actors (except for IMF leader Peter Graves) and get new scripts." i i a it m. nn a r-t 1 1 UttUVSAJLi By Bruce Chadwick New York Daily News It has been almost a full season since Phil Morris joined the IMF team in ABC's new "Mission: Impossible" television series (Saturdays, 8 "p.m. EDT). In that year, he has firmly established Grant Collier, and not Barney Collier, as the team's high-.

tech electronics expert. That's a big distinction, since Phil "plays Grant and his father, Greg Morris, played Barney Collier, the electronics expert in the original Impossible" series that ran from 1966-1973. In the new series, Grant is Barney's son. Grant Collier is becoming as familiar to this generation as his father was to the last, but Grant is not Barney and Phil is not Greg. In fact, Phil wanted to separate himself so much from his father that he never even told him he was up for the part "Looking back, I didn't tell him because I wanted to win the role on my own," said Phil.

"I think, though, that subconsciously, I didn't tell him I was up for it because I feared he would start giving me tips on how to win the role, which he knew so much about and, later, how to play it on the air." What happened, though, is that Greg has not once ever offered his son any tips. The two did appear together on one episode in charac PHIL MORRIS Striking similarities striking. Phil, at 29, looks exactly like Greg at the same age. Both TOH rp) Special Purchase of the Month Vinyl Iniblinds Up To 36 Inches ter, as father and son. Even then, however, Greg left his son alone.

"I really respect him as an actor for that," Phil said. "But I respect him even more as a father. There's a point where a show-business father has to step back and let his offspring go it alone. Dad knew that, and it's i'-' worked out fine." jj The fatherson similarities are SK99 White, Beige, Blue Rose, Gray Available Larger Sizes Available at Discount II 311 Now you can watch the highlights of the AMOCO'S CEMENNIAL PREAKNESS CELEBRATION PARADE from a front row seat, on jfafiyfypififfitf-. your own doorstep.
