CBS PRODUCER SUSPENDED FOR SECRET TAPING
Date: 16 June 1983

CBS News today suspended George Crile, the producer of a January 1982 documentary about the Vietnam War that is the subject of a major libel suit, for tape-recording telephone interviews with former Defense Secretary Robert S. McNamara and others in 1981 without their authorization. Mr. Crile violated a written CBS News policy against taping interviews without the consent of the interviewee or ''the express permission of the president of CBS News or his designee,'' David Boies, a lawyer representing the network in the libel suit, said today. ''He has been suspended from editorial responsibilities,'' Mr. Boiess said, for an indefinite period, with pay. The lawyer said that the network viewed the suspension ''as serious disciplinary reaction,'' but that Mr. Crile, who has been working on a documentary about the conflict in Nicaragua, was not being dismissed.

REPORTER DISMISSED AFTER ELECTION TO SCHOOL BOARD
Date: 15 June 1983

A Knoxville, Tenn., newspaper has dismissed a reporter because she ran for and won a seat on the school board in her hometown of Alcoa, Tenn. In a telephone interview yesterday, the reporter, Jacquelyn B. McClary, said her dismissal from The News-Sentinel violated her rights as a citizen. The editor who dismissed her, Ralph L. Millett Jr., said her candidacy violated company guidelines that prohibit newsroom employees from participating ''in any political activity that could raise questions as to the newspaper's objectivity.'' The incident squarely posed what has been a troublesome issue of how far journalists must divorce themselves from routine civic affairs and interests to avoid a conflict of interest or the appearance of such a conflict. By practice and by common agreement, many journalists avoid personal involvement in activities they report on and seek to avoid allowing personal commitments to influence how they report events.

Good News For Reagan
Date: 15 June 1983

If anybody in Washington can take pleasure in the British election results it should be President Reagan and his political managers. Prime Minister Thatcher won here by appealing to all the themes President Reagan loves: All we have to do is what we used to do - work hard and believe again; buck up; shape up; the future belongs to the values of the past. In the White House, it must be a happy melody. It's not only that the defeat of the British Labor Party averted a crashing split in the Social Democratic-Liberal alliance over economic and nuclear policies. It's also that about a third of the three and a half million British unemployed voted for the Conservatives, whose economic policies, like Mr. Reagan's, added to so much pointless misery.

KEEPER OF ENVIRONMENT

When Robert E. Hughey showed up for work last year on his first day as New Jersey's Environmental Protection Commissioner, he parked his Jeep, strode in unannounced and sat behind his desk. He was wearing a plaid shirt and slacks. In 18 months on the job, Mr. Hughey has become the model of the unorthodox professional whose relaxed personal style belies the leading role his department has assumed in attacking hazardous waste problems. ''I love this job - it's the only one I could have taken in state government because I'm allowed to be different,'' he said, still amused by the stir his casual appearance makes in a world of business suits and chauffeured cars. ''This is the only town in which you can become famous for not wearing a tie, driving your own car and not flying in a helicopter.''

International Balance in East-West relations was stressed by Secretary of State George P. Shultz. In Congressional testimony, Mr. Shultz said Washington remained concerned about Moscow's military buildup, its ''unconstructive involvement'' in unstable areas of the world and its ''unrelenting effort'' to impose its philosophy on its allies. But he said the Administration sought ''to engage the Soviet leaders in a constructive dialogue.'' (Page A1, Column 6.) The Pope's return to Poland today is viewed by the military rulers as potentially risky but also as a chance to gain legitimacy, with the goal of an easing of Western economic sanctions imposed after martial law was declared Dec. 13, 1981. As Warsaw's welcoming banners were hung, plainclothes policemen were posted around the home in Gdansk of Lech Walesa, the founder of the Solidarity union, and he was told he would not be allowed to leave.

SENATOR BAKER UNCOVERS BIG NEWS IN A SMALL ITEM
Date: 15 June 1983
Special to the New York Times
Browsing through The New York Times of June 9, Senator Howard H. Baker Jr. of Tennessee was fascinated when he happened on a two-sentence article with the headline ''Gun Fires Chickens at Planes.'' Langley, Va., June 8 (UPI) - Officials at Langley Air Force Base said today that a cannon that hurls dead chickens at airplanes at 700 miles an hour is helping to reduce accidents caused by jets hitting birds. Maj. Dennis Funnemark said the device, called a chicken gun, was a converted 20-foot cannon that shoots 4-pound chickens into engines, windshields and landing gear to determine how much damage such collisions can cause. In sharing what he called ''a story of major significance'' with Senate colleagues a day later, Senator Baker said that his first reaction to it had been one of bitterness: ''I wondered why a special classified briefing had not been set up for members of Congress on the new chicken gun, and I wondered if Secretary of Defense Weinberger was planning one. I was also surprised that The New York Times decided to run this story on the bottom of page A24, since this newest strategic development speaks directly to our nation's safety and might even change the focus of the defense budget debate.
