Reactions Vary To Rerun Plan
By MIKE BICK Kansan Staff Writer
A proposal to limit program reruns on national television will ultimately cut down on the quality of existing programming, according to two area television program directors. A third director saw some value in the rerun limitations powey.
The proposal was made recently by the Screen Actors Guild to cut down on reuns of the actor, who present 45 per cent of prime time during the summer season is devoted to reuts. The proposal which was endorsed by President Nixon, would limit that to 23 per cent.
Dick Silky, program director of WIBW in Topeka, said the increase in first run programming would hinder the quality of television programs. Each show costs money, he said, and an in production would leave little money for better programming.
THE PROPOSAL, he said,
serves only to "appease
television actors."
If prime time reruns are cut, more time could be left to the stations to explore local issues, Siley said. Public television is capable of doing this, he said, but it might not have a significant interest in a centrated development of public affairs programming.
"Public affairs programming can be deadly," Siley said, "if not handled properly. The stations are capable of public affairs watching them and watching them. People would rather watch entertainment."
Siley could not say what type of entertainment would be offered if the proposal became law.
Station WIBW, however devoted some time to public affairs reporting on the coming
local elections, a special on the plight of the Potowatomie Indians, and a program conducted by the mayor said that not much was happening now and that no imputation on the actions were planned.
CHARLES McABE, program director of station KCMO in Kansas City, said the proposal was "passable" for a network station.
If the networks were forced to cut the rurals, he said, stations would have to cut back on the existing quality of programming. Shows would be less expensive, but the quality would suffer.
"If you want to drive out public TV," he said, "this is the way to do it."
Mabee said that KCMO news programming devoted time to two news programs, a noon news program, which devotes 10 to 15 per cent of programming time to public affairs, is an example of this, he
MEABE said there was no unofficial public affairs programming at KCMO if the proposal overruled existing policies on public affairs
Micr Roth, program manager at WAFD in Kansas City, said the effect of the proposal probably would be on the viewer, himself.
Roth said the quality of television should stay at the same level as television of proposed because law. In order to do this, he said, more money was needed.
should be spoken.
Mrs. said he would like to see more original programming on television. Specials are one way of doing this, he said. WDAF runs most NBC specials during prime time, but also has produced some local specials, he said.

Last year the Johnson County District Court declared the property tax foundation method of school funding unconstitutional and gave the Kansas Legislature the 1973 to develop a new funding plan.
HOPE Winners Believe in Award, Regret That Only One Will Win
John Bremner, professor of history and political science at the award winner, said he thought that the HOPE Award was the best honor a faculty member could receive.
Although the 1971 HOPE Award departments and fields of interest, they share a common value in the value of the HOPE award
"The decision has value in that it is the best way to take action and take some action on a plan for funding which is in line with the court decision." Knox
Elizabeth Schultz, professor of English and 1971 HOWARD award recipient, is the award was important "because it is based on the teacher who does the work."
"My notion of a good teacher is not an entertainer, but one who helps the student learn to educate himself."
Basically, the guidelines call for school districts to be responsible for their property wealth and adequate state support to insure that schools are well prepared.
Had the state appealed the decision, the legislature could have been in its effort to come up with a new school funding program.
"I THINK that the honor of the more in being nominated than the more in being nominated to the Arno Knapper, in professor and 1971 HOPE Award winner, is this."
"I really means something if a student will place a teacher's name on the ballot as the most popular candidate in his college career," he said.
The 1971 winners said they lined his vision three years ahead of what was to come. With a chance to know faculty members whom they might never have met, he said.
"You have no idea of how little interchange there is between students and teachers in educational or political philosophies—and that exchange

Knapper said he thought the percentage vote was not a solution because it would weight more of his favor of professional schools.
"People don't realize that the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences with its major majors is much more fragmented than any other."
The personal interviews are two-hour, informal interviews six HOPE Award Committee members. The committee members most with the faculty are asked to correspond to Lynn Herman, Coffeyville senior and member of the committee. "We just try to get to the interview."

The percentage vote considers the number of votes a candidate receives and the percentage of votes in the school that the votes represent.
"The popular vote gave a distinct edge to Liberal Arts and Sciences," he said.
MEMBERS OF the committee said there was no way to insure a memorial of the names of seniors had been compiled by the University when completed.
"LAST YEAR'S senior class gave the award to three faculty members in an effort to better express students in the smaller colleges. The award committee has decided to use a percentage vote."
Although there will be only one HOPE Award winner this year, one of the goals of this year's committee has been to make the award as representative as possible for students at Clark. Also, the Association adviser to the HOPE Award Committee, said Monday.
"The manner of selection should be left to the HOPE Award Committee, but for the sake of my colleagues I'm sorry that there will be only one HOPE who can bear this year," 39perler said.
