- The cancellation of the "Evening Edition" news program KQED-TV, this city's public-television station, has generated several hundred viewer complaints and a policy struggle at the station. The program, a half-hour five-night broadcast, was taken off the air Sept. 1. It was the successor to "Newsroom," a one-hour nightly program considered a pioneer in the so-called "eyewitness news" presentations.

To the Editor:$ v. e can only hope that the Supreme Court decision lifting the constitutional ban on cameras in the courtroom (editoral Jan. 27) will not lead us further into the McLuhanesque arena. Prurient coverage of crimes such as murder, child molestation or rape could result in a televised circus of victims' pain and humiliation -- of questionalbe value to anyone.

Gov. William A. O'Neill's first budget message to the General Assembly last night may offer an indication of the political strategy that he will follow if, as expected, he seeks election to a full term next year. His budget seemed aimed at pleasing the middle-income and workingclass citizens who have traditionally voted Democratic. He pointedly avoided recommending any increases in most of their taxes, especially the 7.5 percent state sales tax. Instead, he proposed a new tax on unincorporated businesses, such as higher-income law firms and other professional partnerships, and directed some of his biggest proposed spending cuts at the wealthier towns in Fairfield County and to the commuters from those towns.

With an oratorical directness and an aura of sincerity that he has made his political trademarks, President Reagan tonight set aside the nuances of economic analysis to try to seize the attention of the American people with a plain-spoken audit on the economy and his formula for recovery. Promising ''tax relief,'' noting that many Americans must now work four months a year to pay their taxes and warning of economic calamity unless the tide of inflation is turned, he laid claim to the broad middle-class constituency that he seeks to enlist for his conservative economic program. But he coupled his stark description of the nation's plight with a deliberately stated can-do approach and charts that pictured the nation ultimately bringing the Federal budget into balance. ''We can turn this around,'' he declared. ''We must not be timid.''

An unusual number of books on classical music subjects are scheduled to be published this spring. One reason for this burst of activity, according to an editor at Doubleday, which is readying Luciano Pavarotti's autobiography for March publication, is the extraordinary amount of music that may be heard and seen on television nowadays.Mr. Pavarotti's many telecasts have made him an especially popular figure, even among people who have never seen him in a live performance. "Pavarotti -- My Own Story," written in conjunction with William Wright, covers the tenor's rise to fame along with his comments on the current state of opera, food and diets, audiences, sports, young singers and how he prepares his roles. There are also contributions from many of Mr. Pavarotti's friends and colleagues, including Mirella Freni, Joan Sutherland, Giuseppe di Stefano and the singer's wife, as well as dozens of photographs and a complete discography.

International Poland's labor troubles worsened as negotiations between the Government and strike leaders broke off in a southern province. The independent national union told all its chapters to be ready to begin sit-ins if force was used to break the walkout. The province is the only region where strikes were continuing, but other areas where negotiations were still under way remained tense. (Page A1, Column 1.) Information on two Americans in Iran was reported by the State Department. It said that Mohi Sobhani, an Iranian-born American citizen held since Sept. 6 on spy charges, had telephoned a brother to report he had been freed. The department also said it had learned that a hearing had been held for Cynthia B. Dwyer, who has been imprisoned since May 5, and that "a disposition" of her case was expected about Monday. (A1:1-3) India raised a nuclear challenge to Washington over what New Delhi regards as uncalled for delays in releasing nuclear fuel under a purchasing accord. Indian officials said they had authorized the reprocessing of spent fuels into much more powerful and hazardous plutonium oxide.(A6:3.)

International Washington assured NATO members that the Reagan Administration would make no decision on the possible production of the neutron bomb without ''thorough, prior consultations'' with the allies, according to Administration officials. They said that Secretary of State Alexander M. Haig Jr. had advised the allies in messages to disregard comments about the enhanced radiation bombs made by Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger because they did not represent an official position. (Page A1, Column 1.) Soviet criticism of President Reagan and his foreign policy continued in Moscow's press. In an unusually sarcastic commentary, the Communist Party newspaper Pravda asserted that Mr. Reagan suffered from ''the childhood ailments of power.'' (A3:1-3.)

Frank Perdue, the largest seller of premium-priced branded poultry in the New York area, was charged yesterday in a Justice Department civil suit with engaging in illegal restraint of interstate commerce involving his distributors and competitors. Mr.Perdue, who appears in his own television and radio commercials with the theme "it takes a tough man to make a tender chicken," was accused of threatening certain New York area distributors that he would cut them off from his own product if they continued to deal in poultry produced by various of his competitors. In some cases, the Justice Department said, his Perdue Farms did stop selling its poultry to "one or more distributors which have refused to discontinue distributing the poultry or poultry products of a specified competitor of Perdue Farms."

Creamer Inc. has just been named agency for the Narragansett Brewing Company, Cranston, R.I. That may be a bit newsy, but the real news will be if the client really spends in ''the low seven-figure range'' for advertising, given the negative attitude toward advertising the new management of Falstaff Brewing, the parent company, has.
