CONTINUING the cost-cutting strategy that forced the cancellation of its nightly news program last year, Long Island's financially troubled public television station is revamping its schedule so that its remaining local news and public affairs shows will be broadcast on Thursday evenings rather than on different nights throughout the week. Arthur M. Gillick, the president and general manager of WLIW-TV in Plainview, said last week that the changes would mean reduced production expenses and possibly even additional revenue, because the station would be able to rent its studio to outside producers on Fridays. Until now WLIW-TV has reserved its facilities for the preparation of a weekly news program on Fridays. The consolidated public affairs lineup is not the only programming change in the works at WLIW-TV, which broadcasts on Channel 21 on the UHF band. Starting Feb. 7, the station will carry a quiz program featuring Long Island high school students.

AT SKI AREAS, SNOW NEWS IS GOOD NEWS

NEW JERSEY homeowners may have been pleased with the relatively mild winter - and low fuel bills - that lingered until mid-January, but the state's ski-resort operators saw the unseasonable weather in terms of layoffs and low returns.
They are hoping that the recent snowstorm and drop in temperature, together with Ski Fest '83, which opened yesterday and runs through next Sunday, will give them a chance to recoup.
Four areas make up the New Jersey Ski Areas Association - Vernon Valley/Great Gorge in McAfee, Craigmeur in Newfoundland, Hidden Valley in Vernon and Ski Mountain in Pine Hill.
Peggy Kurlander, president of the association, said that the poor ski weather, especially the washout during Christmas week, had been disastrous.

A LITTLE GOOD NEWS

There is some good news in the capital of the United States, after all. Recently, when it appeared that the American economy was getting out of hand, and even that its Social Security system was going bankrupt, some longing for unity began to intrude on the clamor of the front pages. For example, when the executive and legislative branches of the Government could not agree on how to resolve the Social Security crisis, President Reagan appointed a non-partisan commission of politicians and economists from outside the Government to study the problem. Under the leadership of Alan Greenspan they came up with a compromise. They recommended it as the best they could do in the national interest. It was accepted within a few days by the President and the leaders of Congress.

In December 1979, the Koch administration was charged in a lawsuit with failing to provide decent shelter for the homeless. The case focused not only on the untold thousands of people who wandered the city's streets night and day, but also on the several hundred who were sleeping each night on plastic chairs in the Men's Shelter, in lower Manhattan, where the city placed most of those who sought shelter. On Wednesday, Mayor Koch went to a synagogue on the Upper West Side of Manhattan and complained that not a single synagogue had sheltered a homeless person. Previously, he had criticized churches for not doing their fair share, complaining before Christmas that some priests were saying to him, in effect, ''no room at the inn.''

Grace Withdrawal
Date: 22 January 1983
W.R. Grace & Company said it was ending work on its project to produce 12,500 barrels of gasoline a day from coal at Baskett, Ky., because it was unable to reach agreement with the Synthetic Fuels Corporation, a Federal agency. Grace wanted the Government to own a majority of the $3 billion project, so that Grace would not have to take unacceptable risks. The fuels agency did not find that approach acceptable, Grace said.

THE HIGH STAKES OF OPEC ACTIONS;

The 13 members of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries are meeting this weekend in Geneva in an atmosphere of high international drama. Behind the meeting room's closed doors, the prospects for world economic recovery, the solvency of nations and the stability of major multinational banks could all be on the table.
The meeting's actual outcome, however, is likely to be far less dramatic than the stakes would indicate. There is a consensus among oil industry experts that the OPEC ministers will likely agree to reduce output by some modest amount from last year's average of roughly 18.5 million barrels a day. Exactly how that quota will be apportioned is far less clear.
At the same time, some analysts are predicting that a small - and probably disguised - drop in the official, $34-a-barrel price for Saudi Arabian ''marker'' crude will also emerge from the meeting.

So when will that safe recovered from the sunken liner Andrea Doria be opened? In March 1982 it was at rest in a special cold-water tank in the New York Aquarium, and Peter Gimbel, who led the expedition that recovered the reputed treasure, said he hoped to open it live on television that fall at the end of a film about the expedition. ''Well, everything takes longer than one thinks,'' Mr. Gimbel observes.

It was destined to be the largest single grant to fight alcoholism ever made by anyone, including the Federal Government.
