Mrs. Grasso said she wants to weigh the recommendations as to how they LOOK, iwiiniivj Mr Newport The Viking Mr. Steacy at the beginning of the year," he said. Steacy, in his letter, also accused Woods, who has been doing the "New Directions" show for nine years, of not putting into the show "the time and effort necessary to make it a success." Steacy said he had decided to change the "format, title and host of 'New Directions'." 1 "Therefore," the letter continued, "I will no longer need you to host the New Directions program, or to represent the station in any way." Claims Coverup Woods claims the issue of the Wesleyan course is only a coverup by the station "to eliminate me, the only black person at Channel 19 for 9 years, because of my attempting to improve the quality of my program by attempting to involve and expose blacks, Puerto Ri-cans and white students to Aa Newport' Smartest Hotel (401) 847-3300 1 Mnndav VT7N II Mondav ki IQlTuesday KV I GRSnTEST By KEN CRUfCKSHANX Larry Woods, director of a community agency in Hartford's North End, has been relieved of his post as the unpaid host of the WHCT-TV, Channel 18, television show "New Directions" and is protesting the television station's move, calling it discrimination. Woods, who will hold a press conference outside of the WHCT offices at 555 Asylum St.

at 10:30 a.m. today, said the station's excuse for firing him was "an outrageous lie" and "an insult to my character and integrity." The crux of the matter Seems to be a course, listed in the Wesleyan University catalogue, which offers students the chance to "design, host and produce a series of half-hour television programs whose focus will be the cultural offerings and community affairs of the Mack and Hispanic communities in the Hartford area," using WHCT-TVs "New Directions" show as a vehicle. TbMght Had Agreement Ronald S.

State Police Commissioner Edward P.

Leonard said after a conference in Meri-den Wednesday he will recommend against further state regulation of the sport. At the meeting were representatives of DEP. the Connecticut Hang Gliders Association and the Connecticut Parachutists, The meeting was prompted by the recent deaths of one member of each group.

LARRY WOODS problems with the previous year's student activity, "he talked about some changes to be made but I thought we had reached an agreement." Steacy, in his letter to Woods, laid the blame for "misunderstandings between the faculty, administration and students at Wesleyan University" at Woods' door and said Woods had "misrepresented the policies of the station by allowing a course to be announced and filled with students, promising them the use of the facilities at Channel, 18 without my knowledge and consent. McMullen, however, says that Woods had little to do with the matter.

Yale Notes Its 275th Birthday By SARAI RIBICOFF NEW HAVEN Yale University celebrated its 275th birthday Friday night with an anniversary program in Woolsey Hall attended by about 1,000 alumni, students and friends of the university.

The main speakers of the evening were Vale President Kingman Brewster Jr. and Archibald MacLeish, Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and poet who was graduated from Yale in 1915. Brewster, praising Yale's achievements, said, "We celebrate our pride in what we are. We celebrate our hope for the future." Adding, that there were few institutions in the country older than the nation itself, Brewster said, "History could not be truly told if Yale were left out. MacLeish read a new poem, "Colloquy," which he wrote for the occasion.

Other speakers included Yale trustees Caryl Haskins, former president of the Carnegie Institute in Washington, D.C., and Strobe Talbott, White House correspondent for Time magazine. Haskins was graduated from Yale in 1930, Talbott in 1968. George W. Pierson, professor emeritus of history and university historian, also spoke on Yale's achievements. Road Repair Cost Soars in Finland HELSINKI The cost of road repairs in Finland was $3.7 million in 1963.

In 1975 the figure had risen to $28.9 million, and by 1982, the government predicts, it will reach $66 million. One reason given for the increase is that Finland has no restrictions on studded snowtireuse.
