Paley, who created CBS in 1928 from a small radio network and built it into a multibillion-dollar broadcast empire, announced Wednesday he will step down as chairman of the board in April. Paley, who will be 81 later this month, leaves the No. 1-rated commercial television network to his hand-picked successor, Thomas H. Wyman, 52, who also will retain his current positions as president and chief executive officer. In a letter to CBS employees and the network's affiliated stations, Paley said: "In resigning as board chairman, I am reflecting my complete confidence in Tom Wyman and his skilled, dedicated management team I feel the time has come for me to relinquish a full-time commitment.

Fortunately, my energy level remains high, and I want to stay reasonably active." Paley will become a full partner in the Whitcom Investment which has ranging communication holdings, including the International Herald Tribune. But he will never be far from the communication colossus he created from a $400,000 gift from his cigar-magnate father. He'll serve as consultant, while maintaining a presence on the board of directors. CBS today and in the future will be what Paley has made it. "His legacy was that he pioneered commercial broadcasting to make it the most dominant form in the communications world," said Michael H.

Dann, who was CBS' programming chief from 1958-70. Despite being an art connoisseur and a highly cultured and welltraveled man, Paley understood that television needed to reach high and low and become a medium for the masses. "We went through a period of quiz shows, sitcoms, westerns," said Dann, now an adviser for ABC. "Mr. Paley believed as strongly as Shakespeare that the play (programming) was the thing.

"We gave the public exactly what it wanted. He was not a programming gambler. He'd pay anything for a star, but he wasn't the least bit interested in creating new forms. He believed in building the best mousetrap." Still, the innovations came. Such groundbreaking programs as "60 Minutes" and "All in the Family" were fixtures on CBS.

But just as the news division's "60 Minutes" could attract high ratings, so could "Dallas," a prime-time soap opera and the biggest hit in television. Asked to explain the basis for Paley's qualitative judgments, Dann said quickly: "high ratings. He often said there was no such thing as a good president with low ratings, or a bad president with high Wood, Bedford; Marvin W. Wood, Evington; stepbrother, Thomas E.
