WHAT FUTURE FOR THE P.M. PAPERS?
Date: 16 August 1981

Between traffic problems and television, nobody can make any money with an afternoon newspaper any more. If you happen to own one, you can either wait until it goes bankrupt or cross your fingers and hope it survives being converted to a morning paper. That, at least, is the current wisdom, lent weight by Friday's announcement that The Daily News was folding its Tonight edition, by the Aug. 7 closing of The Washington Star and by the continuing threat that The Philadelphia Bulletin may be going the same way. Indeed, the shift to morning publication has been going on apace. According to presstime, the magazine of the American Newspaper Publishers Association, 39 afternoon papers have switched to morning since 1979 - including nine so far this year and three more scheduled this month. But editors, publishers and industry analysts say the case against the afternoon papers is not as clear-cut as it would seem. Although afternoon papers have been declining both in numbers and circulation since their peak a decade ago, they still outnumber morning papers - 1,388 to 387 -and have the majority of the sales -32.8 million daily compared to 29.4 million for A.M.'s.

With much pride, the Koch administration released figures this week showing that more than half of the workers hired by New York City in each of the last three years were black, Hispanic or Asian-American, raising the proportion of those groups in the municipal work force to 36 percent. But a closer look at some of those figures discloses a less positive picture for the administration, which has been criticized in the past for its hiring practices by some black and Hispanic groups. Despite what it calls extraordinary efforts, for example, the administration has found it difficult to increase sharply the number of minority-group workers in top managerial positions. Of the 2,100 such jobs, which are filled through discretionary appointment, 18 percent are held by blacks, persons of Hispanic extraction or Asian-Americans.

Following is the text of a statement by Robert M.

Jazz in Newport struck a sour note 10 years ago, and it has taken until now to ease the ill feeling that drove America's first great outdoor music event out of town. Flashback to 1971: The Newport Jazz Festival had grown from modest beginnings in 1954 in this elite summer colony into an event whose name became synonymous with jazz and the Fourth of July weekend for thousands of music buffs - a place where the ''jam session'' became popular. Twenty thousand people enjoyed the music of Dave Brubeck, Cannonball Adderly, Herbie Mann, Dizzy Gillespie and Gerry Mulligan. On the night of July 3, 1971, as Dionne Warwick sang ''What the World Needs Now is Love, Sweet Love,'' a mob of young gate crashers broke through a fence and stormed the stage.

News Summary; SATURDAY, AUGUST 15, 1981
Date: 15 August 1981
Controllers' Strike Stripping the controllers' union of its bargaining rights was recommended by a Federal administrative judge on the ground that the controllers' strike was an ''open and flagrant'' violation of Federal law. John H. Fenton, chief administrative law judge of the Federal Labor Relations Authority, which oversees the Government's labormanagement relations, urged the agency to revoke the union's ''exclusive recognition status.'' If the recommendation is accepted by the three-member board, the union's right to represent the controllers would immediately be taken away. (Page 1, Column 1.) Flight attendant unions rallied to support the striking controllers, although many of the union members individually expressed little sympathy for the controllers' strike. As notices of impending layoffs of pilots, attendants and ground crews were being issued by some airlines, representatives of six flight attendants' unions conferred urgently, concerned that if the controllers' union is broken their own unions might be imperiled.

TAKING ON THE L.I.R.R.

When you take on a job like the presidency of the Long Island Rail Road, Robin H. H. Wilson said yesterday, it is hard to know just where to begin making improvements. But several hours after he was appointed to the post, Mr. Wilson said his top priority would be ''employee relations.'' From there, he said, everything else would flow. ''If the Long Island Rail Road is a success during my tenure,'' he said, ''it will be not just from my efforts, but because of every single member of the organization working as a team.''
