White House spokesman Larry Speakes said the United States has received signals from the Soviets through diplomatic channels indicating. "They would like to discuss further their Interpretation and our understanding of their paper they presented at Reykjavik, which talked about (SDI) testing. "We would be anxious to discuss it with them in Geneva and to clarify It," Speakes added. Reagan blamed (he collapse of a sweeping arms agreement In Iceland on the demand by Gorbachev that SDI testing be confined to the laboratory.

The president had proposed a lOyear compliance with the 1972 Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty, which permits research and some development and testing, and he argued the more restrictive Soviet plan would kill "Star Wars."

After a speech by Shamir and a five-hour debate, the IMmember Knesset Israel's Parliament voted 82-17 Monday to approve the Cabinet that Shamir and Pern formed last Friday.

Shamir, the oldest minister In the Cabinet, and Peres, 63. were supposed to swap jobs last week. But last-minute haggling over Cabinet appointments delayed the change of leadership.

One official, speaking on condition of anonymity, said an expected expulsion of more Soviet diplomats from United States could as soon as today. The Kremlin's action Sunday represented the largest single mass expulsion of Americans from the Soviet Union, but the State Department rejected Monday any assessment of a link between the action and the recent U.S. expulsion of 25 Russian diplomats assigned to the Soviet mission to the United Nations.

"(It Is) totally without justification and can't help but have a detrimental effect on relations," said department spokesmen Charles Redman. He also would not link the Soviet action with continuing post-summit contacts between U.S. and Soviet arms control negotiators. A senior administration official told reporters at the White House that while there would be "some detrimental effect," the arms control talks could proceed on a separate track. Richard Combs, U.SM deputy chief of mission in Moscow, formally protested the expulsion of the five Americans working in the U.S.

Embassy, and the official who spoke anonymously said retaliation would be swift. "(It will come) sooner rather than later." the official said. "We are not going to dillydally." White House spokesman Larry Speakes rejected the Soviet contention that the five American diplomats were engaged in "Improper activities" and described the administration as "outraged and angered" by the Soviet action. KIM'S PHILOSOPHY: Kim Novak says she dropped out of Hollywood 20 years ago because she didn't want to be manipulated. "I didn't tell anyone.

I knew 1 wasn't coming back," Novak said In the Oct. 2S issue of TV Guide. "The interferences in my life, the way they stifled me, made me have to leave. If 1 wanted to survive, I knew I had to get out." Now Novak, 53, is back with an I8week contract to appear on the prime-time soap opera "Falcon Crest." But 20 years ago Novak says she was subjected to the same pressures as Marilyn Monroe with no one to turn to and the lifestyle almost destroyed her. "If I had the chance to talk to Marilyn or others when they were in the depths of despair, 1 would have let them know that it all could be OK, that Hollywood is just a place, a job," Novak said, "that whatever happens there, well, there are other Jobs, other lives, other people."

Under questioning by Goggln, two detectives, Ronald Vallerlnl and Patrick Kelly, testified they did not know of any police being tent to look for the getaway car or whether fingerprints of criminals were compared to fingerprints at the scene. The two also testified that on the day of the robbery, police held a high- level meeting to discuss how to bring charges against Bennett, not how to solve the robbery. The detectives testified both Police Chief Keith Bergstrom and chief village attorney Raymond Heise were at that meeting. Assistant Village Attorney Bruno Grazlano said In his opening remarks the charge against Bennett is a simple ordinance violations case.

The Hong Kong government, apparently hoping to avoid embarrassments rfuch as the one caused by Prince Philip's remarks In China, warned that people who meet the royal couple during their three-day visit should not repeat their conversations to the media. Philip raised eyebrows when he described Peking to British students In China as ugly and warned them they would get "slltty eyes" if they stayed too long In China. Government protocol officer Peter Harvey, advising On correct behavior if approached by the royals, told Hong Kong residents exchanges with the royals should be kept private.

"I think it is unnecessary" to repeat anything they might say. he said. Britannia, accompanied by the British destroyer H.M.S. York and scores of local pleasure boats, sailed past the towering skyscrapers of Hong Kong's financial district into Victoria Harbor, where fireboats sent up huge sprays of water and the traditional 21-gun salute was sounded. "Prince Philip and 1 come to Hong Kong after a historic visit to China, the first by a British monarch, symbolizing the new relationship between Britain and Hong Kong." the queen said at the elaborate and colorful welcemingceremony.

She said both nations, under terms of the Slno-BrttsH agreement on the colony, were committed' to maintaining the customs and traditions of Hong Kong. "As you move toward a new phase in your development, our thoughts will always be with you." she said. "As 1997 gets closer, it seems most unlikely that the queen would return to Hong Kong," one veteran observer of the royal family said. "Such a visit might be seen as upsetting the agrecd-to status quo on Hong Kong. It has been 11 years since she last visited and it seems unlikely she would return any time close to the hand-over of Hong Kong." suftDort hi the case from the 68.000- member American Federation of The most airborne of all birds is the sooty tern, or Sterna fuscata, which remains continuously aloft for three to four years from the time it leaves its nesting grounds until it returns to the breeding grounds.

The third-quarter report by the Swedish defense staff on foreign submarine intrusions mentioned an Incident this summer in which two windsurfers "suddenly heard a powerful hissing sound." "They put down their sails and spotted a dark object 30 to 50 meters away The object lay still in the water, unaffected by the waves. A minute later the object submerged and did not show up again," the report said. The vague expression "alien underwate activity" is used by the defense staff to cover foreign submarines. midget submarines and frogmen riding on underwater vehicles. Such forces have been linked by Western analysts to Soviet diversion forces, who in times of war would blow up key installations and assassinate political leaders.

Officials refused to give details of the encounters to avoid tipping their hand to whatever nation is responsible for the underwater Intrusions. They said most recent Intrusions occurred on the northeastern coast, noting that foreign submarines avoid the central and southeastern coastal waters, where Sweden's An- tiSubmarine Warfare forces patrol. Nicaragua Asks and Independence" of Nicaragua. Justice Minister Rodrigo Reyes asked the People's Tribunal to sentence him to the maximum penalty under Nlcaraguan law, 30 years in prison. Hasenfus sat quietly, his face beaded with perspiration, as he heard Tribunal President Reynaldo Monterrey read the charges against him in Spanish and a court-appointed interpreter translated them into English.

Hasenfus's wife. Sally, and his brother, William, were present in the packed courtroom presided over by the three-member tribunal. The reading of the charges Monday concluded the initial phase of the trial. Court procedure now calls for a recess of at least two days to give the defendant time to enter a plea, followed normally by a period o( eight to 12 days for presentation of evidence in writing. The tribunal would then have three days to render its verdict.

There is ordinarily no oral argument. Departing from usual practice, the government opened Hasenfus's trial to the public. People's Tribunals were established by Nicaragua's leftist Sandinista government to prosecute political crimes. U.S. Embassy officials have dubbed the three-judge panels made up of a prosecutor and two Sandinista party activists "kangeroo courts." Hasenfus was captured Oct.

Two American crewmen and a third man. identified in the indictment as a Nicaraguan radio operator, were killed In the crash. The plane was loaded with weapons and other supplies Hasenfus said were intended for the Contra rebels fighting to overthrow the Nicaraguan government. The charges read before the tribunal labeled Hasenfus a "tool" of the Reagan administration used in "acts of terrorism" to aid the U.S.backed rebels.
