Roger Mudd, who has served for 15 months as the Washington-based co-anchor of ''The NBC Nightly News,'' will be dropped from the position in September, the network announced yesterday. Tom Brokaw, who is now the program's co-anchor in New York, will become the sole anchorman of the nightly news program. The 55-yearold Mr. Mudd will become a senior political correspondent and the host and principal reporter of the ''NBC White Paper'' documentary series, the network said. Reuven Frank, the president of NBC News, said that Mr. Mudd was asked to leave his position because network executives had decided that the anchoring of the news program should no longer be split between two cities.

One of the useful offshoots of the foofaraw over the purloined Carter briefing papers was the discussion, which hasn't gone far enough, of the role played by George Will in helping Ronald Reagan prepare for the 1980 debate with Jimmy Carter for which the papers were pilfered. Mr. Will, a conservative columnist for The Washington Post, Newsweek and other publications who also serves as a commentator for ABC News, was part of the team that sharpened Mr. Reagan for the debate. He then went on ABC television right afterward and praised the Reagan performance. He failed to tell his television audience that he was a member of the Reagan campaign staff.

PENNSYLVANIA CITY DIVIDED BY 2 NEWSPAPERS' WAR

BARRE, Pa., July 21- The Anthracite Newsstand, just off the shaded lawn of the Public Square, is clearly a thriving business, but it is also one of several battlegrounds in a feud that has divided this old hard-coal city for nearly six years. On one side are partisans like John O'Donnell, who picked up his Citizens' Voice there this morning. ''It's the union paper,'' said Mr. O'Donnell, a retired railroad man, referring to The Voice. ''I'm a union man. This is a union town, and nonunion people have done enough damage to us.'' On the other side are such partisans as Ed Kosenick, a clerk at the nearby Best Western Motel, who swears by The Wilkes-Barre Times Leader. ''I have this thing about unions,'' he said.

By approving plans for a major increase in American military involvement in Central America, President Reagan appears to have narrowly defined the role of the commission he appointed last week to develop long-range policy options for the region. The increased activities include large-scale exercises beginning next month, preparation for a possible partial blockade of Nicaragua and plans for stepped-up covert operations against the Sandinista Government. Construction of a major American military base in Honduras is also planned. Administration officials acknowledge that these activities may deepen American involvement to such an extent that it would be difficult to revise policy even if the commission so recommends. But the officials, like the commission's chairman, former Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger, contend that most policy options will remain open when the panel completes its report, which will probably be early next year. Mr. Kissinger said today that he doubted anything ''irreversible'' would happen before then.

Preserving order is a police department's basic job. When order breaks down, as it did after last Friday's Diana Ross concert in Central Park, questions arise about what went wrong: Did the police perform as well as they could have? Is the city's Police Department being blamed for events that could not have been anticipated? Was such an event impossible to police? The questions are being asked by many of the police officers assigned to the concert and by many of the victims of an hour-and-ahalf rampage through midtown Manhattan that claimed scores of victims of robbery and assault. Top police officials have described their major problem at the concert as one of deployment -maneuvering their troops rapidly to problem areas outside the park. The reason for this, they say, is that they geared their concert strategy to potential problems within the park - such as the chain snatching and bottle throwing that marred Miss Ross's rain-shortened concert the evening before - not for a rampage through Manhattan's streets.

News Summary; WEDNESDAY, JULY 27, 1983
Date: 27 July 1983
International President Reagan sought to dampen reports of accelerated United States military involvement in Central America. At a news conference, Mr. Reagan asserted that Washington sought no ''larger presence'' and has ''no military plans for intervention'' in the region. (Page A1, Column 6.) Fidel Castro accused Washington of trying to deploy American troops in Central America through military maneuvers now beginning. The Cuban President said that over recent weeks the United States had been trying to create an ''atmosphere of terror'' around Nicaragua. Earlier, Cuba's Deputy Foreign Minister, Ricardo Alarcon de Quesada, told reporters that Havana would regard a quarantine or blockade of Nicaragua as an ''act of war.'' (A1:4-5.)

International Henry A. Kissinger conferred with President Reagan and said that the new Presidential commission on Central America was unlikely to complete its work before next February, two months later than the original deadline set by Mr. Reagan. The former Secretary of State, who heads the commission, said the 12 panel members would probably travel to Nicaragua and other Central American countries. (Page A1, Column 6.) American Army and Marine troops and Navy tactical air crews will take part in the military maneuvers set to begin in Honduras this week, according to a senior Pentagon official. The policy-making official said the aircraft carrier Ranger, with its seven escorting ships, would begin operating 100 miles off the Pacific coast of El Salvador within 48 hours. (A10:1.)

OPENING STATEMENT
Date: 27 July 1983
I have an opening statement here. A while back I got a letter from a 13-year-old and I apologize for not having answered her as yet. She wrote, ''Don't you wish sometimes you could just stamp your feet and shout at the press or Senators to be quiet, sit down and listen to what you're saying?'' Well, yes, Gretchen, I sometimes do feel that way, and particularly over the past week. On April 27 I went to Capitol Hill, addressed a joint session of the Congress on a subject of vital importance to all Americans - I talked about our goals in Central America and I asked for Congressional understanding and support. In Central America as elsewhere we support democracy, reform, and human freedom; we support economic development; we support dialogue and negotiations among and within the countries of the region, and yes, we support a security shield for the region's threatened nations in order to protect these other goals. In my view, there's been entirely too much attention to the efforts that we're making to provide that security shield, and not nearly enough to the other elements of our policy. Yet in each of the four elements of the policy we find that they reinforce each other, and they're being pursued simultaneously in a carefully balanced manner.
