Boards of Brooklyn Union And Lilco Vote for Merger The boards of Brooklyn Union Gas and Long Island Lighting agreed to a merger of the companies, which would create a strong new utility and perhaps lead eventually to deep cuts in electric rates -- now the highest in the continental United States -- for 1.1 million customers on Long Island. The merger would involve a tax-free exchange of stock for securities in a new holding company. $(Page A1.$) Analysts praised the deal, saying the combined company should be able to compete well in an industry that is emerging from intense regulation. $(B6.$) Norfolk Takes Case to Regulators Norfolk Southern has asked a Federal agency to overrule part of Conrail's merger deal with CSX that prohibits Conrail from seeking another merger partner before 1999. $(D2.$) Competition in Wireless Phones Lucent Technologies and Northern Telecom, which are leading makers of almost everything needed to build wireless telephone networks except the phones themselves, are investing hundreds of millions of dollars to make wireless handsets. $(D3.$) Television Ratings in Canada While the United States prepares to test a system of television ratings that is as simple as possible, Canadian broadcasters, after two years of experiments, have found that parents are willing to accept and use a more complicated system if it allows them more influence over what their children watch. $(C9.$) A Cry for Help From '911' Services Across the country, public safety agencies are complaining that the communications revolution ignores their needs.

As a result, many radio listeners are finding themselves with fewer sources of local news as news staffs are combined. The trend has been driven in part by the consolidation of the industry, with deals like Westinghouse's merger with Infinity Broadcasting. $(D5.$) Grass Roots on the Web The proliferation of corporate sites on the World Wide Web sometimes obscures the fact that it was homegrown sites that drove much of the Web's early popularity. But those kinds of sites have not disappeared. Denise Caruso: Digital Commerce. $(D3.$) Victories for Viewers' Groups Television viewers have begun banding into advocacy groups to demand what they call ''quality television'' from the networks. And although they do not always agree on what constitutes quality, in 1996 they have seen some success in efforts to hold broadcasters accountable for programming decisions. Broadcasting. $(D5.$)
