But it's virtually certain perhaps as early as March Detroit-area viewers will i have a choice of two pay TV channels, that will offer new movies, special programming and sporting events currently unavailable on regular commercial television. Late last week the Federal Communications Commission granted the station permis- sion to broadcast pay TV.

It was the first time the FCC allowed two stations in the same market to broadcast pay THE OTHER station, WXON-TV (Channel 20) has liad prime-time pay TV on the air since July 1. Mrs. Tenicia Greeorv. to 90 capacity Iranian oil." I'm ans one of the four largest pay TV operations In the United States with ON-TV, Home Box Office (H130) and Showtime. US-TV HAS one franchise in operation, in Boston, and authorization for shared time operations on channels in Sacramento, and Central Islip, on Long Island.

The Boston station, WQTV, Channel 68, has been offering prime time, 7 p.m. to midnight, pay TV since December 1978, and claims between 13,000 and 15,000 Installations in the Boston area. The station shows movies and Las Vegas nightclub shows but, at present, offers no sports. The installation fee in Boston is between $75 and $100 depending upon location. The monthly fee averages $15.95 with some additional cost for apartment installations, a Boston US-TV spokesperson said Monday.

Channel 20s ON-TV system costs $49.95 for installation of the master antenna and signal decoder box attached to the TV set, plus a refundable $50 deposit and a $22.50 monthly fee. ON-TV offers movies, special programs, Red Wings hockey and selected college sports events to about 20,000 subscribers. Energy tax, millageOKd for Fraser Fraser School District voters Monday approved the school tax for general operations and an additional tax for energy conservation projects. Twenty-seven mills, which is the entire operating school millage, were extended for one year by a vooe of 806 to 394. The tax produces about $6.7 million annually Residents voted 673 to 519 to add a half-mill for three years.

This tax will provide about $125,000 annually for furnace renovations and other energy-saving projects. The tax also will allow the district to obtain federal matching funds, a school spokesman said.

"All of this happened so fast," said Mrs. Gregory. "Our president, Dr.

(William has been out of town and the pay TV has been in a sort of holding pattern." Mrs. Gregory said WGPR has signed an agreement with Universal Subscription TV (US-TV) for the pay service. CHANNEL 62 has no plans to cancel any of Its current programs, Mrs. Gregory said. Channel 62 carries a heavy schedule of religious programs including the PTL Club.

According to Mrs. Gregory, Channel 62, which went on the air in 1975, went into pay TV to increase revenues so the station can do more local minority programming.

KREITER GRAND RAPIDS (UPI) U.S.

District Judge Noel P. Fox, long considered a liberal on the federal bench, announced Monday he has retired as chief judge for the Western District of Michigan. The colorful and sometimes controversial 69-year-old judge said he submitted a letter to President Carter Dec. 12, asking for senior status. Fox, who was appointed to the federal bench in 1962 by President John F.

Kennedy, said he could have gone into semi-retirement three years ago but decided to stay on because of the condition of the court calendar. He has been chief judge for eight years. AMONG THE most controversial decisions Fox has issued In his 17 years on the bench were school desegregation orders in Kalamazoo and Benton Harbor and the affirmation of unrestricted fishing rights for two Upper Peninsula Indian tribes. The vacancy will be filled by Richard Enslen, a Kalamazoo attorney, whose confirmation hearings In the Senate begin Tuesday. Judge Wendell A.

Miles, a Nixon appointee who has been at odds with Fox over the years, will assume the chief judgeship. "I could have taken senior status three years ago," Fox said. "But If I had the calendar would have been in greater disarray than it is now. I wanted to do it but I just couldn't leave under those Judge Noel P. Fox circumstances.

I felt It my duty to stay on." A judge with senior status draws full salary but hears cases only at his discretion. THOUGH Fox is taking senior status, he doesn't foresee a lighter workload. "I'll be able to slow down," Fox has said, "handle the number of cases a federal judge normally handles." Fox long had complained he and Miles were overworked, each handling 2,000 cases a year. This year, those complaints caused the appointment of two new federal judges for the district Douglas Hillman and Benjamin Gibson. In an interview several months ago, Fox said he never wanted to leave the district court bench for a higher court because he would never see the people involved in the cases.

"I once avoided an appointment to the state Supreme Court because I liked the trial bench too much," Fox said. "I even ran for Congress. Now, I'm glad I lost. I'd have never been able to accept the kind of political contributions you need to keep getting elected."
