GROMYKO NEWS CONFERENCE: A 'VIRTUOSO PERFORMANCE'
Date: 04 April 1983
By Serge Schmemann, Special To the New York Times
Serge Schmemann
Though the headlines today focused on Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko's rejection of President Reagan's latest arms proposal, those here who watch the Kremlin were at least as intrigued by the fact that he had chosen to announce the rejection at a wide-open news conference. Such public confrontations with foreigners are exceedingly rare by Politburo members. Even Mr. Gromyko, who has faced the Western press fairly frequently when abroad, has done so at home only on rare occasions. The last time was in June 1979, after President Carter and Leonid I. Brezhnev signed the second strategic arms limitation treaty in Vienna, when Mr. Gromyko warned that if the pact went unratified the arms limitation process would fizzle. The treaty was not approved by the United States Senate.

The McGuffey Readers, first used in elementary schools in 1836, went back into use in the public schools of Bristol, Va., in 1982, and by last January officials there reported that initial wariness by teachers had evaporated. Officials praised the outpouring of virtues - patriotism, kindness, work, honesty, fairness, punctuality - in the ''little lessons'' of the seven readers, edited by William Holmes McGuffey, an American educator.

News Summary; SUNDAY, APRIL 3, 1983
Date: 03 April 1983
International The Soviet leadership responded to President Reagan's proposal for an interim agreement limiting Soviet and United States medium-range missiles with a statement from Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko that it was ''unacceptable.'' He said at a news conference in Moscow that there was ''no chance'' that it could be used as the basis for an agreement at the Geneva arms reduction talks. He said the Soviet Union would continue to seek an accord that would protect the security interests of both sides. (Page 1, Column 6.) The U.S. expressed disappointment in Andrei A. Gromyko's rejection of President Reagan's arms proposal, describing the Soviet reaction as ''unconstructive.'' It said it hoped for a more flexible position when arms talks resume next month. (1:5.)

Early last month the Nova Scotia Legislature in Halifax approved a motion calling on the judge, Alan J. Saks, and Mrs. Bogner to apologize.

International The Soviet leadership's rejection of President Reagan's interim proposal for limiting medium-range nuclear missiles is not likely to be its last word on the issue, according to Western European governments. Senior North Atlantic Treaty Organization officials said in Brussels Saturday that Foreign Minister Andrei A. Gromyko's rejection of the new proposals disappointing, but not surprising. Meanwhile, organizers said about 200,000 Western Europeans took part in demonstrations over the weekend protesting the possible stationing of the Uinited States missiles in Europe next fall. (Page A1, Column 6.) Anti-Americanism of young people in Europe has troublesome implications, Government officials said, and to counteract it the Reagan Administration is planning a broad strategy aimed at a new generation of young European leaders. The goal is to re-establish the close bonds between leaders on both sides of the Atlantic after World War II. (A1:5.)

PIEDMONT AIR SKIRTS THE FARE WARS BY FLYING TO OUT-OF-THE-WAY PLACES
Date: 03 April 1983

IN the midst of the recession, hard-hit Dayton, Ohio, spent $15 million for airport facilities to lure a new airline to town. It also offered an unusual concession. If things didn't work out, the carrier could scrap the 10-year lease. That would leave the city to find a new tenant - no small task at a time when major airlines are shunning many medium-sized cities. That's how badly Dayton - which lost 36 percent of its air service since the airline business was deregulated in 1978 - wanted the carrier, Piedmont Airlines. Less clear was why Piedmont, a fastgrowing airline nurtured by its Sun Belt routes, wanted Dayton. But Piedmont's intentions soon became clear. Using Dayton as a hub, it began last summer to spread into Flint, Mich., perhaps the worst urban victim of the auto industry's troubles, as well as the recession-hit Middle Western cities of Akron and Toledo, Ohio, and Fort Wayne, Ind.

N.B.A.'S NEW CONTRACT: A STATESMANLIKE SETTLEMENT
Date: 03 April 1983
By A.h. Raskin
IF Larry Fleisher, chief negotiator for the National Basketball Players Association, was the happiest man around after last week's handshake on a revolutionary new basketball agreement, his opposite number in the National Football League Players Association, Ed Garvey, ran him a close second. For Garvey the promise of the basketball team owners to guarantee 53 percent of their gross to pay players' salaries represented vindication of an idea that had been labeled socialistic, if not crazy, by the owners in football when Garvey advanced it before leading his members out on an eight-week strike last fall. Garvey never did get his fund, and lingering dissatisfaction in some clubs over the pact he finally recommended may yet cost him his union job. But that did not stop Garvey from exulting at the basketball players' breakthrough.
