(Repeat; 60 Gavin MacLeod making his way By DAN LEWIS HOLLYWOOD -- When the “Mary Tyler Moore Show” went off the air, the produc tion company had all of its stars laced to contracts for future television projects, with one exception. That was Gavin MacLeod, who played the bald, bland writer in the TV newsroom. MTM Productions, presided over by Miss Moore’s husband, Grant Tinker, had developed deals for Ted Knight, Ed Asner and Betty White. They also had Georgia Engel under contract. CBS picked up a series that ex tends Asner’s role as Lou Grant. Now Lou’s in Los Angeles as managing editor of a daily newspaper. Betty White also will have her own show on CBS, portray ing the star of a TV show that is directed by her ex husband. Georgia Engel is featured in this series. There was a pilot for Ted Knight, but it got nowhere. As for MacLeod, who play ed Murray Slaughter on the show, when Mary Tyler Moore called it quits this year after seven seasons, Gavin MacLeod got a nice “thank you” and “we’U be seeing you around some time” with the farewells. MTM Productions made no effort to tie him up. There is no bitterness, MacLeod insists. He shrugs off the fact that Tinker never bothered to lasso his services along with the others by saying, “They were the ones who got shortchanged." min.) 0 — Porter Wagoner 0 — Warren Roberts 9:30 P.M. 0 _ Alice Alice searches for away to ex plain the facts of life to Tommy, but discovers that his school's sex education class is way ahead of her.

He was never even nomi nated for one during the en tire seven years. “But it worked out. I’m grateful,” he says, adding the series “made me a saleable commodity.” The fact that MacLeod will star in his own series on ABC next season is of dou ble comfort to him. He got the series on his own mo mentum, without Grant Tinker or MTM Productions to push for him. ABC came after him. 0 — Music Place 11:00 P.M.
