Two rival bidders to produce the television program "It's Showtime at the Apollo" are in a dead heat on the eve of a critical vote by the nonprofit foundation that controls the storied theater. Sources say the board of the Apollo Theatre Foundation is divided as it prepares to vote tomorrow on whether to license the show to Inner City Broadcasting or a new bidder, African Heritage Network. African Heritage's president, Frank Mercado-Valdes, said, "At this point, it looks like it could go either way. It's extremely close." Inner City officials could not be reached for comment. The vote, which has been postponed twice, will mark the board's most significant action since May, when state Attorney General Dennis Vacco launched an investigation into irregularities in the expired contract for "It's Showtime" between the foundation and Inner City. Vacco's office is investigating whether the foundation failed to collect $4.4 million it was owed by Inner City because of the personal and political ties between Rep. Charles Rangel (D-N.Y.), the foundation's chairman, and Inner City chief Percy Sutton. The board needs to hire a producer quickly so new shows can be taped in time for the fall television season. "There is time pressure," said Lisa Davis, the attorney who has been representing the board. Under the old Inner City contract, which ran out in December, the foundation was paid about $200,000 over five years. African Heritage Network, a five-year-old production company, greatly upped the ante by offering the foundation a package of donations and guaranteed payments worth at least $1.5 million for the right to produce "It's Showtime" for just one year. Since African Heritage first made a rival offer to produce the show, Inner City has increased its bid. In its most recent offer, Inner City said it would pay up to $1.5 million. The controversy over the attorney general's investigation has created a great amount of friction among Apollo board members, who had long voted unanimously on matters. Board members leaning in favor of African Heritage include acting legend Ossie Davis, communications consultant Evelyn Cunningham and lawyer Marianne Spraggins, sources said. Hospital executive Eugene McCabe, retired United Parcel Service executive Arthur Hill and lobbyist George Dalley are all planning to vote for Inner City. Other board members are undecided."It's tense," said one source. "The lines are drawn." Vacco's office has asked Rangel not to vote because of his ties to Sutton. That could prove critical if the board splits, 5-to-5, leaving Rangel to cast the deciding vote.

Beuhlah Walker smiled as she cried last nightjust as she had 50 years ago, when she saw Jackie Robinson play his first game at Ebbets Field. "I fell in love with him that day. We all did," said Walker, 88, tears rolling down her cheeks as she clutched her grandson Ivery's hand. "I cried that day."Walker, a Brooklyn native, flew in from Savannah, Ga., yesterday to attend the Robinson tribute at Shea Stadium, along with tens of thousands of fans and President Clinton. For many it was a family affair, an intergenerational celebration of the man who changed baseball and the country. Fans of all walks of life traveled from Astoria and Australia to honor one man's achievement. "Jackie was not great just in baseball, but in life itself," said Ron Hill, 56, of Manhattan. Ken Ritzer's eyes twinkled with memories of youth as he recalled shaking his hero's hand at Ebbets Field more than four decades ago. "When I was a kid, Jackie was my favorite player. Then you could just walk up to him and shake his hand, not like today, when you have to pay for an autograph," said Ritzer, 53, of Staten Island, who attended with his son, Eric, 26.Augustine O'Neill, 41, of Eatontown, N.J., said he grew to love No. 42 as a youngster, thanks to his African-American foster father, who was a Robinson fan. "I wanted my son to understand the ramifications of what Jackie Robinson did," said O'Neill, who took his 11-year-old son, Shawn, to the game. "What a hero!"Adrien Nicholson, 27, a recent immigrant from Jamaica, was brimming with pride as he attended his first baseball game with his wife and three young children."This day is a milestone not just for Jackie, it's a milestone for us as a family," he said. Howie Feiner, a Brooklyn native who lives on Long Island, held the hands of his grandsons Sean, 7, and Alex, 5, as he recalled watching Robinson's first game at Ebbets Field. "I was here 50 years ago when Jackie was here for the first time," he said. "There's no way I'd miss this." Even vendors, hawking souvenirs and food, said they saw themselves as part of history. "I feel privileged to be here," said hot dog vendor Anthony Catalfano, 18, a student at John Jay College. "I have a midterm tomorrow, but I put that off to work this game." Rico Soto, 21, who sold 100 Jackie Robinson T-shirts in one hour outside Shea, clearing a quick $1,000, made sure to keep one for himself. "People are going to save them, give them to their kids, grandkids and nephews," said Soto, of Tampa, Fla. "Jackie's the manhe broke the color barrier."

A drug-related dispute, a fight between neighbors and a brawl outside a club left three men dead in unrelated weekend shootings, police said yesterday. Three brothers were shot, one fatally, while riding in a car in Brooklynabout 9 p.m. Saturday. Detectives believe a drug dispute brewing since August sparked the shooting that left Landy Ulysse, 25, dead. A bystander driving a van was wounded in the barrage of bullets fired by a lone gunman, who escaped in a red car. The 52-year-old man, whose name wasn't released, was shot in the left leg, cops said. Ulysse, of Brooklyn, tried to run away after he was shot once while driving on Pennsylvania Ave. between Linden Blvd. and Stanley Ave. in East New York, police said. He bolted from the car only to be shot again in the head. Ulysse was pronounced dead at the scene. His brothers Sergio, 18, and Pierre, 21, each wasshot in the left leg as they rode in the car. Like their older brother, they also got out of the vehicle and ran, but they managed to escape further injury. On Staten Island, a dispute between two men who lived in the same Port Richmond Ave. building ended with one dead and the other charged with murder, police said. Jose Arellano, 40, was shot once in his chest and pronounced dead at the scene of the shooting on the second floor of 246 Port Richmond Ave. shortly before midnight Saturday. Police charged Moises Ortega, 26, with murder and criminal possession of a weapon. A .38-caliber handgun was recovered. The nature of the dispute wasn't immediately clear. About two hours later in Brooklyn, two bouncers were shot, one fatally, after barring a group of men from a birthday party inside a Flatbush club. Two other men believed to be among the party-crashers also were shot during the fracas outside the Caribbean Cafe on Utica Ave. at 2 a.m. yesterday. Kerwin Miller, 30, of Long Island was pronounced dead at the scene while a fellow bouncer, Vandike Dinnal, 27, was in stable condition at Kings County Hospital with a gunshot wound to his torso. Arrested were Pierre James Mullins, 18, of Brooklyn, who was shot in the left foot, and Larry Bennett, 19, of Brooklyn, who was shot in the right thigh. Charges against them were being sorted out last night.
