The owners of The Daily News announced yesterday that all discussions on its prospective sale to the Texas financier Joe L. Allbritton had been ''terminated.'' Officials of The News asked to meet at 2 P. M. tomorrow with the Allied Printing Trades Council, an umbrella group for 11 newspaper unions. Earlier the paper's owner, the Tribune Company of Chicago, had said it would close The News if no buyer was found. But yesterday's action led to speculation by union leaders that the Tribune Company itself might be considering further negotiations with them to seek cost savings and try to continue publication. There was also conjecture that another possible buyer might be in the wings.

Newspaper executives attending the convention of the American Newspaper Publishers Association here have been told over and over that their business is at the threshold of an era when information will increasingly be transmitted on video screens instead of paper. ''All progressive information providers will be taking part in these systems soon,'' Donald N. Soldwedel of The Yuma Daily Sun, said at a panel discussion on electronic publishing. ''Each personal computer sold gives us one more opportunity in the marketplace,'' said William R. Dunn, vice president and general manager of Dow Jones & Company, whose electronic information sales have grown to 41,000 customers from 20,000. ''If you don't get into the business, someone else will,'' said Albert J. Gillen, senior vice president of Knight-Ridder Newspapers.

ONE-HOUR NEWSCASTS BACKED IN POLL

Date: 28 April 1982

JUST two months after Group W Broadcasting released a study showing that a majority of television viewers opposed expansion of the network news to one hour, NBC yesterday released its own poll aimed at demonstrating that most viewers were receptive to an expanded onehour national newscast. The release of the two studies highlights again the continuing dispute between the major networks and local station owners such as Group W over the issue of news expansion. There is general agreement throughout the broadcast industry that an additional half-hour of national and international news would be desirable. However, local stations have resisted turning over to the networks another half-hour of the early evening time they now control. In turn, the networks have ignored suggestions that any expansion of their newscast should take place during the prime-time hours from 8 to 11 P.M that they now control.

''I hope you are not aspiring to an interview,'' said Hyman G. Rickover when he spied a reporter waiting for him in San Diego on Monday. The 82-year-old retired admiral, who was in the city to give a speech, said he had not given an interview since he left the Navy on Jan. 30 and made clear he did not plan to start with the reporter, Kip Cooper.

Crying 'Spy' in Argentina

Date: 29 April 1982

Argentines don't like their country to be portrayed as brutal and lawless, a place where justice is arbitrary and prisons are horrible. But those are pretty good descriptions of what the Argentine junta has done to three accredited British journalists: slammed them into tiny cells, denied them bail and charged them with espionage.

REPORTERS ARE DIVIDED ON ROLE IN STATE SHOW

Date: 29 April 1982

A group of political reporters in an organization called the Inner Circle have agreed to provide the entertainment for a "New York State Salute to the Media" organized by state officials. That decision has led to sharp divisions among members of the news group, who are more accustomed to chronicling the squabbles of politicians. One side asserted angrily that reporters would become "court jesters" to the politicians and businessmen they write about. The other side rejected that notion, and insisted with equal vehemence that journalistic ethics were not involved.

THE RETURN OF PRESS SECRETARIES

Date: 29 April 1982

Special to the New York Times

Following are excerpts from the White House transcript of the daily briefing last Friday when Larry Speakes, deputy press secretary, invited six former Presidential spokesman to return to the White House to joust with reporters, producing much laughter. MR. SPEAKES: We have today assembled a distinguished group of former press secretaries. Due to the sensitivity of the Falkland Islands and the budget negotiations over the past three weeks, I've been unable to say anything about anything or make any news so, I thought I'd bring up some reserves today and see if we couldn't make news.

Three staff members of London newspapers who have been imprisoned in Argentina since April 13 were denied bail today, according to officials at the newspapers here. The officials said that Simon Winchester of The Sunday Times, and Ian Mather and Tony Prime, a writer-photographer team from The Observer, also a Sunday newspaper, could be forced to stand trial on espionage charges stemming from the Falkland Islands crisis. ''We're naturally very concerned after pursuing every avenue to get the journalists freed,'' said a spokesman for The Sunday Times. ''We remain convinced of their innocence and are confident Argentina will come to the same conclusion.''

BRIEFING

Date: 28 April 1982

By Francis X. Clines and Bernard Weinraub

Francis Clines

Scooped by Scoop? D id you ever wonder why they call Senator Henry M. Jackson of Washington ''Scoop''? His fellow Democrat, Senator Sam Nunn of Georgia, got an inkling the other day when he read in the morning paper about Senator Jackson's grand proposal for a Soviet-American communications center to prevent accidental war. Senator Nunn has been working on just such an idea for two years and, as he recalled in a quickly placed phone call to the morning paper, he has produced op-ed articles, speeches and, oh yes, a briefing on the subject for a curious Senator Jackson. Senators are very polite to one another and prefer describing a colleague as a helpmate rather than as a plagiarist.

News Analysis

The confrontation last week between the United Automobile Workers and the General Motors Corporation over the company's plan to improve executive payments has become a central issue in discussions of labor's wage concessions to corporations. The issue is what commitment the companies will make that executives will share equally in the burden of wage concessions and what assurance the unions can obtain that money saved through the concessions will be invested to make the companies more competitve, and thus to save jobs. The union has agreed to new contracts including wage and benefit concessions estimated at $2.5 billion at General Motors and at $1 billion at the Ford Motor Company in the next two and a half years. The concessions include elimination of annual wage increases, a temporary freeze on cost-of-living adjustments and elimination of some paid time off. The contracts were drawn up under pressure from the companies, which argued that they needed lower labor costs to compete with Japanese imports and to invest in new models.
