We ti n-t 'Join this conversation in the IS office of a nowhere advertis-'ihg firm, in the land of free speaking on the phone with a Kiam employee. "Did you see the Bears-49ers game Monday night?" Victor Kiam says. He listens.

"It was the way football was meant to be played," Kiam says. "It was a throwback. It was rough and tough. Both teams were intense." He listens. "Frankly, Raymond, and I'm not saying this as a coach, but against a team like the Bears, you're probably better off with a Flutie than you are with a Grogan." He listens.

The employee is talking. Victor places his hand over the receiver and whispers: "This is fun." His son echoes: "This is unbelievable." "Now, Raymond, let me ask you a question. And there's no malice aforethought meant by it. I don't want you to take it the wrong way, but, would it be helpful at all and if "See, what I'm really looking for are a jew glimpses into his personality. You know: What's he really like?" "That's tough to say in 30 seconds." "Not really.

The network news does it every night. Thirty seconds, pictures and key phrases, then it's off to something else. That's how a guy like Kiam becomes famous to begin with. He's on for 30 seconds at a time talking about his electric shaver, but at the end, people know who he is and what he's sell-. ing.

The difference now is, we're trying to sell him as he really is." "But if people really want to see what he's like, what's to keep! them from reading one of those 'personality profiles' in the newspaper?" "Because those stories are always too long." KIAM. Page 66 it would not be helpful, you tell me so, because we're always going to have this type of conversation, you know that you're the boss in all these matters but would it be helpful if I came in the locker room before the game?" He listens. "I'll say a couple words to Doug on the side, too. You know, to just go out and do your best and nobody expects more than that, kid." He listens. "Atta boy." "How well did you get to know him?" "Not very well.

We spent almost 15 hours with him, from 9 in the morning till after 11:30 that night. We had doughnuts with him, lunch and dinner with him. We followed him everywhere he went. To be honest, we didn't get much interview time with him. The day was crazy." enterprise: "I want you to tell me.

OK? Just tell me: Who is this guy?" "He is Victor K. Klam 2d, chief executive of Remington shavers, owner of the New England Patriots "Cut the sarcasm with me." "I'm not sarcastic." "You don't have to tell me who he is. I already know who he is. I want to know what he is. I want to know why he is." "Why he is what?"

Page 65 By Jackie MacMullan Globe Staff PHILADELPHIA New coach, old problem. The Celtics opened their 1988-89 season promising a new look and new faces on the floor, but they never did offer any guarantees on how they would play on the road. So far, nothing has changed.

Boston was manhandled by the Philadelphia Sixers, 129-115, in the Spectrum last night, and in the process made Cliff Robinson (25 points), Mike Gminski (18) and Gerald Henderson (14 before spraining his ankle in the third quarter) look like all-stars. The real Sixer all-star, Charles Barkley (25 points, 6 rebounds), had his usual say in the victory, but the clear difference in the winning team and the losing team was the ability (or inability)to take full advantage of transition baskets. The unofficial count of fast-break buckets favored Philly, 29-6, but if you count delays and follows off transition, it could have been much, much worse. Easy Sixer baskets were the reason Ramon Rivas and Bob Thornton were battling it out down low In the fourth quarter. "We didn't play well, but it's too early in the season to tell what's going on," said Larry Bird (27).

"They beat us up and down the court. They moved the ball well, and they got good shots. Usually when four or five guys get going, it carries over to the rest of the team. I'm sure they wish they it-.

Aiysheba escaped his pursuers under the cover of darkness last night and stole off with the $3 million Breeders' Cup Classic and probably the Horse of the Year title. The 4-year-old son of Alydar also became the leading thoroughbred money winner of all time, boosting his earnings to $6,679,242 with the winner's share of $1.35 million. He passed John Henry, who had earned $6,597,947. A In what came close to being a farce, Churchill Downs, which has no lights, was almost and muddy track. Aiysheba and Chris McCarron won by a half-length while Seeking the Gold and Pat Day were five lengths ahead of Waquoit.

Waquoit held on by a neck over Forty Niner, who was all over the track under Julie Krone, and earned $324,000, raising his career earnings to a total of $2.2 million and recouping a great deal of the $360,000 supplementary fee paid by his owners. Aiysheba, the 3-2 to favorite, paid $5, $3.60, and $2.60. Seeking the Gold, coupled in an entry at 5-1 with Personal Flag, who fin CLASSIC, Page 84 enveloped in darkness when the field in the world's richest race broke from the gate at 5:35 p.m., a post time dictated by NBC. In fact, track announcer Mike Battaglia had to request over the public address system that patrons not take flash pictures when the horses came through the stretch for fear of spooking the steeds. Waquoit ran his usual courageous race, setting the pace under Jose Santos and finishing third.

But on a track which was very much against speed he had little left to withstand Aiysheba and Seeking the Gold in the final eighth of a mile in the 1 'A-mile test over a dull The Sixers deep-sixed the Celtics early in the third, shortly after a fine effort by Dennis Johnson cut Philadelphia's lead to 5 (72-67).

The Brinks Job wasn't as heinous a robbery as the one pulled off yesterday against the Boston College Eagles, as Tennessee managed to preserve a 10-7 victory after an apparent game-winning, 80-yard touchdown from Mike Power to Marcus Cherry was called back because of a somewhat mysterious Ineligible receiver downfield penalty.

"The officials explained to me that our flanker Cherry was lined up on the line, covering up our tight end Mark Chmura, making him Ineligible," said a visibly upset Jack Hickncll, whose team fell to 2-6.
