JOURNALISTS have reacted with concern to a Suffolk County legislator's resolution requesting and encouraging ''all local newspapers in the County of Suffolk to regularly print opposing points of view on matters of public importance.'' Critics of the resolution, many of them reporters and editors of Suffolk County's 37 community newspapers, said the resolution was ''inappropriate'' to the business of the County Legislature and an attempt to breach First Amendment rights of freedom of the press, and could be construed as a first step toward controlling the local press. The sponsor of the resolution, Patrick Heaney, Republican of East Quogue, and his supporters, said at a recent meeting of the Long Island Press Club that the resolution was ''a needed response'' to the power and dignity of a newspaper editorial. The sense-of-the-Legislature resolution, proposed in January, was approved, with 14 legislators voting for it and 4 abstaining. It was one of about 280 such resolutions proposed to the Legislature last year. Mr. Heaney directed that it be sent to selected community papers in the county.

NEWS SUMMARY;

Date: 20 April 1985

SATURDAY, APRIL 20, 1985 International Elie Wiesel implored the President to cancel a visit to a military cemetery where Nazi Germans are buried. Mr. Reagan listened intently at White House ceremonies honoring Mr. Wiesel, the chairman of the United States Holocaust Memorial Council, as Mr. Wiesel told him ''that place, Mr. President, isn't your place. Your place is with the victims of the SS.'' Despite Mr. Wiesel's plea, the White House said Mr. Reagan would continue with his plans to lay a wreath at the Bitburg cemetery, accompanied by Chancellor Helmut Kohl of West Germany, who had requested the visit. (Page 1, Column 1.) Helmut Kohl said he was gratified that President Reagan had reaffirmed his plan to visit a German military cemetery next month, saying the decision showed he was ''a friend of the Germans.'' He told a West German television interviewer that he and Mr. Reagan had discussed the revised plan to visit both the site of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp and Bitburg, and that Mr. Reagan's decision on his itinerary was ''final.''

MUTI CHANGES PHILADELPHIA'S TEMPO

Date: 21 April 1985

John Rockwell

With his fifth season as music director of the Philadelphia Orchestra drawing to a close, Riccardo Muti seems to have made a resounding success of his efforts to transform, ever so slowly, one of America's grandest old orchestras into one of America's grandest new ones. Mr. Muti is a maestro in the modern mold, which constitutes an almost shocking change for this conservative city. Until 1980, the Philadelphia Orchestra had been led by only two men over the previous 68 years: Leopold Stokowski and Eugene Ormandy. Mr. Ormandy's recent death marked the final transference of authority over the orchestra to the Italian conductor. While Mr. Muti's changes have not been welcomed in every quarter, he has managed to make himself part of a local sense of civic renewal symbolized also by the progressive image of Philadelphia's new Mayor, W. Wilson Goode, and by the recent surprise success of the Villanova basketball team in the national championships. Next Thursday, for instance, Mr. Muti returns from one of his periodic absences to lead the first of five concerts of a subscription program at the Academy of Music. That he has been away at all, that one program is being played five times, and that the concerts will be at the venerable academy all speak directly to Mr. Muti's successes and ongoing struggles as the orchestra's music director - as does the program itself.
