the board's principal tasks in 1978-79 will be to decide what to do about controversial station manager Arthur Paul Paul who took over management reins in 1970 has a contract that expires June 30 He

station address and relations with station volunteers and the media Paul has presented a list of 23 demands which he says a majority of the new board 16 carry-over members and the nine to be elected must agree to before he'll accept contract renewal Among other things the conditions tell the board how to conduct its meetings saying it should participate in opinion surveys and fund-raising The

However a member can vote in person or change a previously mailed proxy at the Sept 29 meeting starting at 7:30 pm at KVIE 2480 Garden Highway Here are candidates' views on some station issues: By DOUG DEMPSTER Bee Staff Writer One of the most important elections in the nearly 20-year history of public television station KVIE Channel 6 is in progress Since early August the 25000 Docile Backus A longtime station volunteer Mrs Backus questions the magazine venture saying "I really wonder about going into the press medium when Channel 6 has such a powerful and important medium in video" Before committing herself 1 Frank Bergen A state Transportation Department planner Bergen is skeptical over whether costs of the magazine can be held to $75000 a year "I suspect lots of members don't need another publication (coming to their homes) and would probably like to see their money used to promote more local (television) production" he said Bergen says he would definitely not vote to offer Paul another contract "unless I saw something later (to convince him otherwise) "I'd say with him (Paul) there is a relationship with the board that is not conducive to smooth workings of the station" he said He said Paul's 23- point ultimatum "would raise a red flag to me if I were on the board" He added the ballot is "decidedly difficult to interpret" and probably needs changes Wilma Briggs Former revenue collector for the city of Sacramento Mrs Briggs believes Paul's contract should not be renewed In reference to Paul's 23-point conditions for staying she said: "It's absolutely outrageous for a man appointed by an elective board who has encountered stormy waters to tell the board how it should operate" She added that the magazine idea sounds "a little over-ambitious" and that she can't understand why station membership lists "are such a state secret" Paul refuses to release them to board candidates for campaign use "There is something terribly wrong with an administration that doesn't appreciate the efforts of many dedicated volunteers" she added contending Paul seems to be trying to get rid of the Friends of Six volunteer organization with which Mrs Briggs has been associated Claire Christensen Appointed to fill a vacancy two years ago she says the magazine may provide valuable additional information about pro grams but that its costs should come from member contributions and advertising and not government funds She called Paul's 23 conditions A David Cox A life insurance agent Cox has no problem with Paul's 23 points saying "I'd be very surprised if the board hadn't already subscribed to them" He said if Paul and the board can't work together the board "must find someone with whom it can work" He perceives the problem as a "very strong man (Paul) who heretofore has had a blue-ribbon management-oriented board of trustees and now has a stronger board that wants a voice in management "I have no reason to believe the board is overstepping its bounds It has the duty to set policy" Richard Dorf Dean of the division of extended learning and electrical engineering professsor at the University of California Davis Dorf says he hopes to improve relations between KVIE and the city of Davis and UCD He hasn't formed an opinion on the magazine question or Paul's future saying: "Fortunately I haven't been Involved in the past and I come to view the renewal of the (Paul's) contract with a totally open mind I'd attempt to do what's right for the management of the station and the public interest" He believes in more state and federal support of public television Thorne Gray A Modesto Bee reporter he was nominated by At chiey an acquaintance to try to get some representation from KVIE's far southern viewing area He says he can't express an opinion about whether Paul should stay "without meeting the man and evaluating more closely than I've been able to from this distance the success of that station" Noting station reluctance to open some meetings and records Gray adds: "It seems to me that a station that solicits from the public and gets some of its money from government should consider itself as public as possible its business ought to be available to public scrutiny" Chuck Hills An executive with Crystal Creamery he says of his initial reaction to the magazine: "I wonder if we need something that Margaret Towne A volunteer in many KVIE functions since the station's inception in 1959 she says Paul's contract shouldn't be renewed "I can't say the man hasn't progressed the station because he has she said "But there's been so much controversy about him that I just feel it's in the best interests of the station that it should not be renewed" While unsure of the magazine's' purpose she doesn't like the prospect of it losing money ($25000 annually according to station estimates more according to outside guesses) As to the 23 points she asks "I'd like to know since when does an employee tell the employer under what conditions he will work and which he will not?" Richard White Chief FBI agent in Sacramento White points to experience in broadcasting as an announcer and script writer for a New York radio station after majoring in broad-Cast production in television He begs off commenting on "any thing concerning the operation of the board of directors or management" or other station issues "It's not ethically correct to comment prior to the election" he says "I don't have sufficient knowledge' Another candidate Merle Dodd a retired Pacific Telephone executive was out of town and unavailable for comment School District Bans 'Our Bodies Ourselves'
