They are Stoddard Cole, Salem; inlife 4 '99 are withdrawn The suit was filed March 18 in U.S. District Court against the American Federation of Television Radio Artists (AFTRA), the Oregon Public Employees Union (OPEU) and individual defendants Stephen Chipps, AFTRA regional representative in Los Angeles, and former Holiday employees Marlene Hamilton, Tim Conner, Landra Snow, Mark Lantz and Brian Schreiber.

The suit alleged that picketing by the defendants at a Feb. 5 concert at the Salem Armory damaged the reputation and business of Holiday. It also claimed that the action violated federal labor law by attempting to force it to undertake actions favorable to the union. The concert was promoted by the Holiday stations. AFTRA, which has been attempting to organize the Holiday station announcers, has filed several charges of unfair labor practices against Holiday with the National Labor Relations Board.

Following Tuesday's action, only AFTRA and OPEU remain as defendants. The charge remaining is that the defendants violated federal labor law in the picketing. Punitive damages of $200,000 and general damages of $20,000 had been sought, but only the general damages now remain in the suit. The Statesman-Journal was unable to reach Holiday's attorney for comment on Tuesday's action. Completely installed with pad When it comes to floors fl ft has it covered 425 Pine St.

ON-TV owner buys Home Box Office PORTLAND Willamette Subscription Television, operator of ON-TV subscription television, has announced the purchase of Premier Home Box Office, which has been providing Home Box Office service to more than 10,000 customers.

Chris Desmond and Arnold Brus-tin, principal owners of Willamette, also are principal owners of Salem's KECH-TV, Channel 22. Premier was owned by a Canadian company, Rogers Cablesystems. The sale price was not disclosed. ON-TV has about 6,000 subscribers and provides a movie service to subscribers using the KECH-TV UHF signal in the evening. Premier, which is two years old, uses a microwave transmission called MDS or multiple distribution system to distribute its programming.

According to Desmond, the Premier signal, in the future, will be delivered in a scrambled format to subscribers who have decoders, similar to the ON-TV method. The Federal Communications Commission is considering a proposal to allow five-channel MDS service in the nation's 50 largest cities. Brus-tin said this could be approved within the next 15 months.
