Officials From $xnt Argued A C.S. ssagistrase, arfuing that tow Victoria officials should be dropped from a re-ouest lor a rehearing by a Victoria aw its hi serving a life sentence lor Border, Instructed those officials Friday to subml Documents that would allow them to be dismissed. Magistrate Eduardo do An af Corpus Christ! stated that the director of the Texas Department of CorrectJoes is the only proper respondent la a habeas carpus daim by Charles FTk; who was given a We sentence by a ttth District Court jury June lor the morder af his fiancee, Fern Austin.

De Ases therefore tastmrt-ed former District Judge Joe K. KeOy, farmer District At-torBey Robert J. Seerden, Dtstrict Attorney KbuU L. Dfcetze and County Judge Norman Jones to submit pra-pesed orders that would allow (hen to be dropped from the Sept It, Wi claim. De Ases said the lour could sot be named a respondent because they did not hare custody of Ftie and could not provide re-ojuested relief.

Frk named the tour officials and TDCs director as drfmrtanri hi a request that asked lor a new bearing be-caase af alleged eonstfladon-at violations.

Respondents hart asked the court Is deny the request educational broadcasting, the general manager reported. If that petition is accepted, the way win be dear for STEBC te begin work la Victoria. FCC officials said mis week that the council's request would be acted upon before they take action on applications by either of the transmitter stations.

The commis-stoa will examine STEBC proposal during a hearing May but will have to drag the application through rule-mak-mg proceedings before a deci- ston Is. made. Cass does not expect a decision soon. "I really don't know bow long (the review) will take." Cass commented. "It's very frustrating not knowing what you're going to get or even when your going to get aV The council's prospects are enhanced by the fact that the ronimivtioa Tuesday agreed to add a third channel SI to Victoria's network.

That gives Victoria three channels Officials believe at least one and possibly both of the transmitter station applicants win revise their applications to request broadcast authority over Channel XI. If both do, Birtks Mr. and Mrs. Murray Dip-pel Jr 1(11 Segum, a daughter, 7 pounds I ounces, at pan. April 30 at Citizens Memorial Hospital.

Maternal grandparents are Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Staff and paternal grandparents, Mr. and Mrs. Ed Urban, all of South Texas Educational Broadcasting Council could start bringing Corpus Chrtav IT educational television station KEDT koto Victoria "in less than 1 days" but must first awal a Federal Conmu-aJcatkjes Commission decision affecting the classification of the channel that will carry the station, a KEDT spokesman said Friday.

The FCC granted STEBC authority broadcast fete Victoria ever Channel J5 earlier this year. Council officials hare nestated ka acting on that authorization, however, because the Investment would not be secure, Terrei Cass, KEDTs general manager explained. STEBC has received authority to operate a "translator station," meaning it could Install an that would lebroadcast the signal KEDT kts Victoria ever Channel 23, the channel that has been reamed by the FCC. However, any "transmitter station" that could originate a broadcast from Victoria would be able to take Channel Strom KEDT that second station were ever granted broadcast authority. FCC regulations, Cass observed, allow to take priority over "transla-aars." There are already two, commercial trasmitter stations that have applied for authority to broadcast over Channel fi.

One is sponsored by Community Television of Victoria and the other by Community Broadcasting of the Coastal Bead Inc. If either one prevails, KEDT would be out of a channel Victoria and an arrestment that is expected to reach tlC.000. Yt couldnt take that kind of Cass stated. The council therefore filed a petition March asking the FCC to reserve Channel 25 tor nlfer Miller, Dawn Pi gel, Imelda Sains. Mandy Leath-erberry, Lacey Dierlam and Klmberiey Fergusoa.

Tammi Jobe. Ruben DeLuna, Tanya Morrow, Zachary Walton. Misty Hunt. Jeremy Denham, Michelle Willis and Scott will be easier to reserve Channel 25 tor educational television, FCC officials state. But apparently, nothing is being done easily at the com-misaoa right sow.

Cass said I is revising a Urge part of its rules and wifl continue to make revisions at least through the end of May. Cass described the situation as "absolute chaos." Add te that the fact that the corn mission has been forced to frees Its review of translator station applications because of the backlog of such applications and the complexity of the situation becomes clearer. "I nope a tot of I is cleared up this month," Cass stated warily. The council's application evaded the freeze because was filed more than a year ago, but the confusion has tied op plans of one other businessman who wants to broadcast Into Victoria William E. Powell of Houston.

Powell would like to build a translator tower near TeJ-ferner that would bring an unnamed station into the market Powell's applications for translator stations la San Marcos and Paige are also pending at the FCC. Cass said STEBCs plans earistoa the possibility of operating a full-service, transmitter station in Victoria eventually. Council officials already plan to provide at least an hour's worth of broadcasting out of Victoria weekly If their application Is approved. The programming would be part of KEDTs regular broadcast, Cass explained, STEBCs antenna, under current plans, would broadcast from Kill's transmitter tower with 1.000 watts of power, or enough, officials have said, to cover a 25-mile radius.
