The 29-year-old publisher of a campus newspaper and a regional magazine announced today that he was purchasing The Saturday Review and moving it to Missouri from New York City. Jeff Gluck, owner and publisher of The Campus Digest at the University of Missouri in Columbia and the magazine Missouri Life, said he was waiting for final approval of the purchase by New York courts that are handling The Review's insolvency proceedings. The Review suspended publication in August after losing $3 million in a two-year effort to cure its ailing financial condition. Mr. Gluck, who refused to disclose the purchase price, said he planned no sweeping changes and had already signed Norman Cousins, the longtime editor, to remain as editor emeritus and columnist.

PRESUMPTION OF GUILT

The press has had a glorious time with John De Lorean since his arrest on charges of drug trafficking, and no wonder. The story has everything: money, power, sex, cafe society, a silver-haired villain. Of Mr. De Lorean's villainy no reader can be in doubt. Newspapers and magazines have told us in detail not only about what he is supposed to have done in the cocaine affair but about a whole life of lawlessness. It is a Hogarthian tale, with ambition as the spur instead of drink. Guilt drips from every paragraph.

SHOULD LIBEL RULE FOR PUBLIC FIGURES BE CHANGED

Date: 10 November 1982

By Jonathan Friendly

For nearly two decades, the press has operated under a legal rule that shields it from libel suits by people in the public eye. Essentially, the rule says these public figures cannot win unless they can prove not only that the offending article was false but also that the publication acted with ''actual malice'' because it either knew that the story was false or recklessly disregarded the truth. The rule has been a powerful protection for the press and for free speech in general. Several recent incidents, however, have focused attention on the rule and opened a debate on whether it should be modified.

New York City's budget, buffeted by the recession, has drifted so badly out of balance that there is serious talk for the first time since 1975 of renegotiating municipal labor contracts. Everyone agrees this is a drastic step, but at a meeting Monday night at Gracie Mansion, labor leaders, far from ruling out a reopening of their contracts, simply said they wanted to wait a couple of months to see whether the city's fiscal situation got better or worse. ''Nothing dramatic should be done until we see what the December, January and, maybe February projections are,'' said Victor Gotbaum, the head of District Council 37 of the American Federation of State,County and Municipal Employees. ''Then we'll all get together, probably around February, when the figures are a little bit clearer.''

Relations between Egypt and Israel, which were expected to improve dramatically after the return of the last occupied area of Sinai to Egypt in April, are at their lowest point since the peace treaty between the two nations was signed in March 1979. The deterioration was quickened in large measure by the Israeli invasion of Lebanon on June 6. President Hosni Mubarak of Egypt harshly criticized the Israeli action, although his remarks fell far short of the demands by Egyptian opposition parties for a break in relations between Israel and the only Arab nation to recognize it. After Christian Phalangist militiamen killed hundreds of Palestinian civilians in September at the Shatila and Sabra refugee camps in the Israeli-occupied Beirut area, Mr. Mubarak recalled the Egyptian Ambassador, Saad Mortada, from Tel Aviv.

Richard L. Trumka, president-elect of the United Mine Workers of America, is a personable, aggressive union man, determined, he says, to change his union.

Mr. Trumka, who, at the age of 33 stands to be the youngest head of a major American union, ran an aggressive, well-coordinated campaign that ended in his triumph Tuesday over the incumbent, Sam M. Church Jr. He is to begin a five-year term on Dec. 22.

Date: 10 November 1982

The G. Heileman Brewing Company sweetened its bid for control of the Pabst Brewing Company yesterday to $27.50 a share from the $25 announced on Friday. It would total about $151.3 million. The revised offer announced by the two companies said Heileman would seek 5.5 million shares, conditional on its getting at least 3.8 million. The original offer, which Pabst had also backed, called for Heileman to seek 6 million of Pabst's 8.2 million shares, subject to its getting 3.7 million. Heileman said then that it owned 400,000, or just under 5 percent. If it is successful in acquiring the minimum sought, it will own 51 percent.
