In an atmosphere of heightened tension between cigarette manufacturers and the press, CBS's lawyers ordered the news program "60 Minutes" not to broadcast a planned on-the-record interview with a former tobacco company executive who was harshly critical of the industry. Instead, the program has substituted a revised report for this Sunday that will examine how cigarette manufacturers try to prevent information from reaching the public.

To the Editor: A year ago you published a piece by my friend Christopher Buckley, who endured appalling indignities by agreeing to speak to the Yale Daily News banquet in New Haven (Op-Ed, Nov. 22, 1994). On that occasion staff members of The Daily News apparently fulfilled their annual quotas for alcohol in a single evening, rendering themselves incapable of listening to Mr. Buckley's speech, and in some cases incapable of opening their eyes. Mr. Buckley cast his piece as a warning to the person invited to speak to the next Yale Daily News banquet (which took place last Saturday night in New Haven).

DIAMOND SHAMROCK TO BUY CONVENIENCE STORES Diamond Shamrock Inc. agreed yesterday to acquire National Convenience Stores Inc. for $27 a share, or $260 million. The agreement, which has been approved by both companies' boards, would thwart the Circle K Corporation's tender offer to buy National Convenience for $20 a share. National Convenience rejected the offer, and the companies were negotiating. Diamond Shamrock, based in San Antonio, is a petroleum refiner and gasoline marketer that also operates convenience stores. Its offer is conditioned upon acquiring at least two-thirds of National Convenience's shares and other terms. National Convenience, based in Houston, operates 661 Stop N Go convenience stores in Texas. Most of Diamond Shamrock's stores are in Texas. (Dow Jones)

After a two-and-a-half-year battle with the Federal Government, the Eastman Kodak Company has been freed of decades-old restraints intended to keep it from monopolizing the United States photographic market. The Justice Department said yesterday that it would not seek a Supreme Court appeal of a Federal court ruling setting aside consent decrees issued in 1921 and 1954 that were aimed at restraining Kodak's marketing practices. The 1921 order prohibited Kodak from making private-label film, while the 1954 order barred the company from including photofinishing costs in film prices.
