355-2926 Seguel: Changes for Chile SANTIAGO, Chile (AP) When police seized a copper miner marching in Santiago with Rodolfo Seguel during a protest two months ago, the Chilean opposition leader risked getting a bashed head to win the worker's release. "You bring my delegate back here and take me to jail instead because I'm responsible for this," the young president of the Copper Workers Federation ordered the police commander, who drew his club. "Either put that away or hit me. Go ahead, hit me," Seguel said. Unaccustomed to such a challenge, the officer relented, freed the marcher and let the small march of 90 people pass.

The story is told often by participants in that march to describe the courage of the man who has since emerged as leader of the first serious protest movement against President Augusto Pinochet's decade of authoritarian rule. Last Wednesday police arrested the 29-year-old activist the day after he organized a second "day of national protest" in which hundreds of thousands of Chileans boycotted schools shops, blew car horns and banged on pots. Though he had called tor only peaceful demonstrations, he was charged with inciting street disorders in which police killed three people arrested more than 1,000.

Burial will be in Pleasant Point Ceme- 6-20 1983 universal Press "Is it still half price for kids?" 'Let parents turn off television ads' WASHINGTON (AP) -A children's advocacy group is launching a bid to force broadcasters and cable operators to insert inaudible electronic signals in television commercials aimed at kids so parents can black them out. "For years, broadcasters have been sloughing off their responsibility for directing ads to young audiences, claiming that it's the responsibility of parents to monitor their children's viewing," said Peggy Charren, the founder and president of Action for Children's Television, or ACT.

"Well, the technology is at hand to do that effectively," she added. "It's up to the Federal Communications Commission to give parents the chance." ACT's proposal is contained in a petition that will be filed with the FCC today, Mrs. Charren said. A copy of the petition, which is also supported by Public Advocates a public interest law firm in San Francisco, was released Sunday. The 13-page petition calls on the FCC to require broadcasters and cable operators to insert a "Children's Advertising Detector Signal" in any commercial aimed at children.

A TV set attachment could then be developed that would respond to the inaudible tones by blacking out the commercial. A similar tone would signal the end of the commercial and restore the normal picture. "There's no device like this now only because there's no requirement for electronic signals," Mrs. Charren said. "The technology is very simple, though, and manufacturers tell us it's easy to develop and build." The petition suggests an electronic coding requirement would in no way "restrict advertisers' First Amendment rights, nor would it amount to government interference in the content of children's TV advertising." "Shades of 1984," responded Squire B.

Rushnell, the ABC vice president with responsibility for children's programming. "The question to me is who's deciding what commercials are suitable for little children and which aren't? We're talking about a society with a free, commercial form of broadcasting and for the most part, one that has been very responsible. "With our free system of television, parents have options right now and they are certainly options that we encourage," he continued. Navy veteran wants to clear up his past Continued from Page 1 Vernia's mailbox. And when he called back the "Lie Detector" investigators, he learned the show had just stopped production.

"It was going to be my savior," said Vernia, 36, a lanky soft-spoken man who was reared in a family of Navy officers. "When I first heard about this show, it clicked right away this was my chance." With his chance gone, Vernia a disc jockey for a Muscatine, Iowa, radio station is willing to publicly talk about his discharge, hoping to relieve a "traitor" stigma he has carried for more than 15 years. He entered the Navy at age 17, and was immediately assigned to a communications post in the Naval Security Group when officials learned he was an expert in Morse Code. He had been promoted to third class petty officer when his problems began. While enjoying liberty in Mexico, he was seen by men from his barracks making trips to Tijuana.

He says he went there to buy a special acne medicine. When a friend asked him about the trips, he quipped, "Sure, John, I'm selling secrets to the Russians, you idiot." That's when the interrogation began, he said. He claims to have been pressured and brainwashed by crafty interrogators into making false confessions, and that the interrogators told him never to discuss the matter after his discharge. "I feel the country has let me down. I'm not the patriot I was once before," he said.

And despite his edginess which he said resulted from his discharge he i is confident he could have passed the lie detector test. "I was born into the Navy. I was meant to be Navy. But I haven't had a really wellpaying job since I left," he said. "It's been a very heavy cross to bear." Paula Merwin, a receptionist for the "Lie Detector" program, said an official announcement of the show's cancellation won't be made until July, when Columbia Productions, releases its new lineup of syndicated shows.

"They told us three weeks ago to shut things down," Ms. Merwin said. "We haven't gotten the final word, but we all know we're not likely to come back." The program, starring renowned attorney F. Lee Bailey, opened last fall to much media attention. Ms.

Merwin attributed the program's closing to a high number of local stations discontinuing the show during the spring. "In some areas, the ratings were fantastic, but we weren't getting enough to meet our production costs and legal fees." So where does that put Vernia? "It's probably pretty hopeless for him," she said. "A lot of people were relying on this kind of medium to finally prove themselves." A Counter Top for Every Budget!
