For instance, the ceiling of 3,000 on intercontinental ballistic missile warheads is 500 higher than the initial U.S. position in the Geneva negotiations.

It would allow the Soviets to retain more of their land-based missile arsenal, the heart of Soviet nuclear strength. Gorbachev called for a 3,600 limit on warheads on strategic ground missiles, bombers and nuclear submarines.

A computer check revealed that no one matched all six numbers chosen in Saturday night's televised drawing for the lottery's weekly numbers game, "The Pick," spokesman Scott Phelps said. The numbers were three, four, eight, 12, 17 and 31. The $4,286,522 jackpot was the largest ever offered by the Arizona Lottery.

Phelps said 431 tickets matched five of the six numbers to win $505 each. A record 13,731 tickets matched four of the numbers for $21.10 each, Phelps said. The jackpot will be carried over to next week, he said, meaning the top prize could approach $7 million. The jackpot "went up by $2 million this week," he said. "If we sell the same number of tickets next week and it goes up by the same amount, we would have a jackpot of $6.2 million.

But we should sell more tickets, and a conservative guess would be that it will be between $6.5 million and $7 million." Phelps said a record 3,224,813 tickets were sold last week. The old record was 2.5 million. suggest anyone who wants to play the game next week should buy their tickets early," Phelps said. "Monday and Tuesday are usually pretty slow.
