Two Professors Here Get TV Board Posts

John Kenneth Galbraith, Paul M. Warburg Professor of Economics, and Nathan Glazer, visiting professor of Education and Social Structure, have been appointed trustees of the National Citizens Committee for Broadcasting.

Committee chairman Thomas P. F. Hoving has said the group will work for better television programming, and is obligated "only to viewers."

Galbraith said yesterday he agrees with Hoving's widely-publicized charge that network TV is "trivia." Many people want trivia, but some mixture of "good broadcasting with the trivia" is needed, he said.

Critics have charged that the committee is a "paper operation." "Some of the network people hoped it would be, but the committee is staffed with people who want to see something happen," Galbraith said.
