1 Bio:
Television
Timothy Hutton and George C.
Scott star in the 1931 film Taps, which
airs at 8 p.m. on Channels 0 and 10.
Although the film itself is far from
superlative, it is significant because it
marked a major shift in Hollywood's
attitude towards the military estab
lishment. The film tells the story of a
military academy which i3 being closed
down, and the cadets who fight (liter
ally) to keep it open. The film also stars
Tom Cruise, who went on to fame in
Risky Business.

I think of KOIL with a great fond
ness as one of the station's with which
I grew up. Currently, the station is try
ing to make a comeback after several
hard years with an interim license
holder. KOIL is programming about 60
percent oldies during the week and
solid gold weekend, said Terry Mason,
program director.
KOIL, too, has found its niche,
according to Mason.
"We're doing OX," he said. "Business
is good. We're going to hang in there
with this format."
One thing going for KOIL is its
emphasis on personality. Mason and
Clay Michaels, the newsman, have a
good rapport and are relaxed in their
delivery. At the same time, they are
witty and aware of what's going on in
their city.
In my opinion, that is AM radio's
strong suit personality. Lincoln's
AM personalities have the right idea.
But their liveliness is missing.-- They
seem, at times, stifled or in a rut.
Thomas said there is still a lot of life
in the AM band. I'd like to think so, too.
