Diplomats sent WASHINGTON (AP) - The Reagan administration, weighing a fresh diplomatic ap proach to the war in Nicaragua, sent its two top Latin American specialists to Miami on Wednesday for secret talks on a new peace initiative backed by Costa Rica and Guatemala.

Regional PBS sought EUGENE (AP) — Lane County Commissioner Jerry Rust says he wants to study the feasibility of local governments installing television translators to provide Oregon Public Broadcasting reception in the Eugene Springfield area. Rust said he will ask the board of commissioners to direct the county to investigate whether it would be practical to erect a network of translators that would carry the signal from Corvallis station KOAC-TV to the Eugene area. Currently, KOAC-TV is available only to cable subscribers. Rust said his pro posal grew from recent protests over Group W Cable's decision to move KOAC from channel 7 to channel 27. That means the station can be received only on the newer cable-ready televi sion sets or with the assistance of a converter box. Prison proposed SALEM (AP) — Gov.-elect Neil Goldschmidt on Wednes day proposed a $54 million cor rections and anti-crime program that includes more than 1,600 new prison beds. Goldschmidt said the plan is part of the proposed 1087-80 state budget he'll submit to the Oregon Legislature when it con venes its 1087 session Monday. Part of Goldschmidt's plan is to add 760 beds to the Eastern Oregon Correctional Institution at Pendleton. A new part of his program would provide MOO new minimum-security beds, many of them to relieve crowding in existing prisons. Goldschmidt said some beds likely will be in the Portland area, where much of the state's crime occurs because it's the most populous region. • SECURITY FIRST | !
