According to the World Jewish Congress unit on the documenta tion of international anti-Semitism, the ow ner of the Dodge City radio station. KTTL-FM. is willing to relinquish it for S 10.000 and give up the fight against the challenges to his license currently before the Federal Communications Commis sion (FCC). At a hearing before the FCC, the attorney for Charles Babbs, owner of the radio station, said his client was willing to give up the license for cash to the Community Service Broadcasting Inc., the citizens group which has been trying for three years to secure the license in place of the Dodge City station. Controversy engulfed the station in 1982 and 1983 when it broadcast programs that were anti-black and anti-Jewish. The sermons of James Wickstrom, founder of Posse Comi- tatus, the rightwing extremist group, were among the broadcasts aired. Babbs’ application for a broad cast license renewal in February 1983 was challenged by the com munity service group which filed a competing application. The group is expected to accept Babbs’ surprise settlement offer to give up his three-year fight to retain the license. Banquet room available for large parties. Private Party rooms also available.
