Peron himself was reported somewhere in the interior of Panama.

The speed and effectiveness of the Government counterattacks, coupled with other developments, indicated the Aramburu regime had anticipated trouble and prepared for it.

Gens. Juan J. Valle and Raul Tanco and Brig. Gen. Enrique Lugand all were marked men before the uprising began.

Police had been on the trail of Valie and Tanco since they were charged a month ago with complicity in an attempted revolt that was nipped in May. Lugand was relieved as commander of the Rosario garrison shortly after last September's revolution, when he proved unable to control anti-Government rioting in the big river port. After yesterday's revolt, police throughout the country were ordered by radio to "find and arrest" Valle and Tanco. There was no word about Lugand. The instant execution of rebel leaders by firing squads through the terror-filled night probably signaled a stiff crackdown on remaining Peron followers, who have harassed the provisional regime from the day it took office.

By DON FREEMAN A not-too-brief telephone conversation between two young lovebirds got one of them caged yesterday. Shortly after 2 p.m., John R.

Greene, 18, wound up a phone call to his girl friend from Zapp's Pharmacy, 2130 Dixie Highway. As he said later, they had been talking "just 10 or 15 minutes" about a date they were planning for last night. (His family has known him to use the phiAie much longer.) He had what he called "a weird feeling" when he emerged from the phone booth. No one else was in the store. And it was locked.

John was trapped there for 2 hours until Mrs. Edward Zapp, who helps her husband run the store, arrived with a gently teasing smile and some keys. John, a former delivery boy for the store, said he did not realize that it would close at 2. Neither did some customers who drove up while John was inside. But Airs.

Zapp said that's the Sunday closing hour during the summer. John's first act when he realized his entrapment was to call the Zapp home. There was no answer. Then he called police, who located the Zapps through relatives. He also talked again to his girl friend, but for a shorter period than the first time.

While the outside world was freer, the store was cooler. So all in all, John, of 2101 Allston, was a bird in a fairly gilded cage. His entrapment was not a total loss cither for the store or him.

The Premier said he was ready to talk with the rebels about a cease-fire provided the contacts were "direct and official." He excluded talks with those guilty of crimes. The Socialist Party had shown signs of wavering in its support of the present all-out military effort to pacify Algeria preparatory to elections.
