Like the start of the war itself, the opening of the ground phase of the war in the Persian Gulf brought renewed attention to network news coverage. ABC and NBC shared strong ratings for initial coverage of the ground war on Saturday night. NBC had a slightly larger audience overall, but ABC reaffirmed its strength with television news viewers by overcoming NBC's traditional appeal with viewers on that night.

Counterproposals by Harold C. Simmons to a plan to limit costs in his proxy war to unseat the board of the Lockheed Corporation were rejected by Daniel M. Tellep, chairman of the big military contractor. Mr. Simmons, who owns 20 percent of Lockheed and lost an expensive proxy contest in 1990, last week accepted Mr. Tellep's proposal that both sides forgo newspaper advertisements to solicit support for their positions. But Mr. Simmons's associate, J. Landis Martin, said he had been denied a request for four additional conditions, among which were a $5 million spending cap for each side, a limit of two mailings to small shareholders and a videotaped debate between Mr. Martin and Mr. Tellep. "Prearrangements with regard to the nature, timing and cost of shareholder communications are unnecessary and inappropriate," Mr. Tellep wrote in a letter released today rejecting new conditions. Mr. Martin did not return a telephone call seeking comment.
