Wants troops at Philly on July 4 PHILADELPHIA (UPI) Mayor Prank L. Kizzo, refusing to take a.

"no" an- swer, has formally requested that Gov. Milton J. Shapp change his -mind and send National'Guard troops to city July 4 to prevent disruptions. The Justice Department Monday denied a request by Rizzo for 15,000 federal troops to patrol Philadelphia Independence Day, saying that troops could not be or- dered in(p the city unless insurrection or severe violence Is in progress and out of control. "That obviously does not now exist, nor, in the view of federal or Pennsylvania of- ficials, is it imminent," a department statement said.

The department also said Pennsylvania would have'to use its 8,000 state police'and 12,000 National Guardsmen 4,000 with riot training-- before the federal govern- ment intervened at request of the governor or legislature. Following decision, Shapp said he would not at this time commit the National Guard to the city July 4. The mayor said he needs the troops because two groups, "Rich Off'Our Backs" and "The July 4th Coalition," have planned demonstrations to disrupt the nation's 200th birthday celebrations. Wednesday, June 23, 1976 Columbus, Nebraska Columbus Telegram--13 TELEVISION IN REVIEW For NBC affifiafes expanded network news is bod news By JOAN HANAUER UPI Television-Writer NEW YORK (UPI) The three networks and their Affiliates are having a family fight over the length of the network' evening news, with all three networks now on the record as favoring expanded programs, and the affiliate stations responding with a resounding, "No!" Which probably just means it will take longer. And cost the networks more.

Bill Sheehan, president, ABC News, and Arthur R. Taylor, president, CBS, both previously had made references to the desirability of expanded network news, and affiliate response at best was stony. Richard C. Wald, president, NBC News, made it unanimous Tuesday in an address to the NBC affiliates convention, in which he said: "We expect an expansion of the nightly news programs on the networks is going to occur, somehow, sometime. There is growing recognition all around us of the need and value of such an He also said NBC recognized "that any such expansion raises a lot of complications." A random survey of af- filiates after Wald's speech indicated that "com- plications" is an un- derstatement and oversim- plification.

For instance: "Very simply, I am opposed to it," said David C. Martin, WRGB, Schenectady, N.Y. "My reason is primarily because from a public interest point of view, I believe local news means more to the community we serve." "I'm unalterably opposed to said David Baltimore, WBRE-TV, Wilkes Barre- Scranton, Pa. Is it inevitable? "No, but the networks would like to give that impression." The affiliate problem with expanded news is they feel that the networks are in- fringing on their time and profits. One affiliate delegate bridled at the industry the term of "stealing" back time from the network he later used the word "recapture." Stations receive com- pensation frdm the networks for the time they give up, but it seldom amounts to what they could earn themselves.

If an independent competitor runs in entertainment against news programing, the af- filiate also could lose a large section of its audience, with a depressing on programs that follow the news. Both 45 minutes and one hour have been suggested as the new nightly news tune. Stations with half-hour local news programs would find 45 minutes more palatable, because they could just add 15 minutes to their local news for a 90 minute news show. Stations such as WPAI- Birmingham or WRGB Sche- nectady, which now run an hour's local news, would be faced with a choice of presenting tivohours of news (considered competitive suicide and "incredibly boring," according to one station executive), or they would be forced to cut back on local news. One station representative said that, in turn, could cause problems rath the FCC.

Some stations are on record as promising to present an hour's local news. To schedule news before 5 or 5:30 p.m., local time, means losing the adults still on their way home from work. One suggestion was made by several broadcasters: If the networks want to expand their news broadcasts, why don't they do it on network time? The top 10 network television programs for the week ending June 20, ac- cording to the A. C. Nielsen were: 1: "All In The Family;" 2: (tie) NBC Sunday Mystery Movie and "M-A-S-H;" 4: "Laverne and Shirley," 5: "Happy Days;" 6: "Jigsaw "Maude;" 8: "Bar- naby Jones;" 9: (tie) Mary Tyler Moore and "One Day At A Time."
