OTTAWA Th Canadian Radio Television Commission has killed the CBC's plan to split, its radio service into highbrow and lowbrow networks. In a decision issued here on Thursday, the regulatory body rejected the public broadcasting network's proposed creation of a Radio One AM and Radio Two FM system.

The CRTC in its ruling con-tended the CBC scheme would make programming on the lower-quality AM network "to close to the programming already available on many of the privately-owned radio the CBC radio service for more than 35 years so that it could achieve higher standard than commercial stations could attain. "As a consequence, the CBC cannot, like, a private corporation, modify and adapt its services in response to the fluctuations of the market in order to achieve institutional survival." What the CRTC stressed in its judgment is that the CBC should stick to its role of encouraging distinctive radio programming because that's why it earns international praise. While the CBC schedules 130 hours of programs a week, some areas of the country as little as 14 hours in English or 27 hours in French. At the time, CBC president George Davidson described the package as a "constructive attempt" to attract more listeners by providing audiences with a greater choice of programs. CRYSTAL, CLEAR But the CRTC, which is headed by Chairman Pierre Juneau, made it crystal clear in the decision that any CBC attempts "to achieve better ratings by imitating or approximating programming forms of commercial stations must be strongly resisted.

The commission concluded there is "no need to spend public funds largely to duplicate what is already provided by commercial operations." The ruling also said the public has heavily subsidized At the same time, it decided to defer a decision on the CBC's proposed establishment of six new FM, frequency modulation, radio stations. The five-page CRTC decision also suggested strongly that the CBC should phase out commercials on both its English and French-language radio networks "except where they are indispensable to ensure the availability of programs of exceptional interest." The CBC's plan to carry light music and brief information items on the Radio One network and use the Radio Two FM one for documentaries, serious music and drama was presented at public hearings in March. SMILE YOU'RE ON CAMERA! EDMONTON (CP) It wasn't all smiles for Richard Douglas Carder after he'd been on candid camera. A camera trap, devised by Arthur Recs 12 years ago after his home was broken into, was the instrument of Cartier's arrest in April when it snapped a picture of him entering the Bees home carrying a gun. A burglar alarm, connected to a $7.50 camera, alerted a neighbor of the Rees' who were out of town at the time.

Police were called and told about the camera. The film was developed by the department's identification branch. A short time later, police arrested two youths on a charge of possessing house, breaking tools. While they were being booked into police cells, the constable who developed the film recognized one of them as the youth in the housebreaking picture.

challenger demands more to play Spassky in Iceland YOUR FAMILY WESTERN STORE if fisJ- YOUR FAMILY gl Ml MM STORE nfHP REYKJAVIK, Iceland (AP) Bobby Fischer has made a last-minute demand for more money to play in the world chess championship against Russian Boris Spassky, informed sources said Thursday. They reported that the 29 -year old American challenger sent an ultimatum to the Iceland Chess Federation "two or three days ago" saying he would not show up unless he got 30 per cent of the gate receipts as well as the unprecedented sums already guaranteed. Under the agreement Fischer and Spassky signed with the federation, the players will share a purse of $125,000, with the winner getting of it. In addition, it was agreed that they would each get 30 per cent of receipts from sales of televi-sion and film rights for the match. refused to fly on the Jewish Sabbath, between sundown Friday and sundown Saturday.

The Icelandic federation was reported seeking a compromise in negotiations with Fred Cramer, former president of the American Chess Federation, who is acting as Fischer's advance man. The Icelanders said they have already spent about $200,000 on and if they meet Fischer's demand they can't break even. Euwe said he doesn't expect the Icelandic Chess Federation to meet Fischer's demand. He added that it would have grounds for legal action against the American challenger if he didn't show up Sunday. "I don't like Mr.

Fischer in our chess world," said Euwe. "He's a good player but every day we are getting an-other ultimatum from him like this." Fischer cancelled scheduled flights to Reykjavik Tuesday and Wednesday. This had led to speculation that he was waging a war of nerves with titleholder Spassky. The 24-game match is due to start Sunday in a sports palace where seats are sold for $5 a game. Dr.

Max Euew, president of the World Chess Federation, today threatened Fischer with blacklisting if he fails to appear Sunday. Dr. Euew said Fischer stands to lose his rights to play for the world title "not only this time but perhaps forever." Fischer was seen Thursday night at New York's Kennedy airport, but Icelandic Airlines said he did not board its flight to Reykjavik. When reporters tried to question him, his bodyguards fended them off. The next flight from New York to Iceland is tonight.
