Italian Premier to Seek New Coalition ROME (AP) Premier Giulio Andretti was asked Friday to try to form Italy's 50th and his seventh post-World War II government. He predicted a quick end to the political crisis that brought down his coalition last week. His five-party coalition fell after squabbling over how to rein in public spending and debt and what to do about slow-moving bureaucratic institutions and the national electoral system. Andreotti had stayed on as caretaker premier and was asked by President Francesco Cossiga on Friday to fashion a new government. "I am grateful for the mandate," Christian Democrat Andretti told reporters.

Whether he succeeds depends largely on Bettino Craxi's Socialists. The 20-month coalition of Christian Democrats, Socialists, Republicans, Liberals and Social Democrats crumbled after the Socialists withdrew their backing. Andreotti said he hoped to meet leaders of the five parties on Tuesday after he returns from a Council of Europe meeting in Luxembourg.

He named U.S. generosity, the vast American lands, the industrial architecture and that "give-somebody-a-chance attitude," as he put it in English, among things that impressed him. In 1980, he bought a loft in the Soho section of Manhattan with the intention of making New York his home. "A metropolis is for me a permanent provocation," he observed.

"It is stimulating for me because it condenses all the problems of our times." But he returned to Zurich within three years, partly because he ended his relationship with an American woman, the "Lynn" in his largely autobiographical Montauk (1975). His last, work was the bestselling Switzerland Without an Army (1989) that featured dialogue between a "grandfather," easily identifiable as himself, and his grandson in which he advocated abolition of the Swiss militia army, which has not fought a foreign war in five centuries.

He retired in 1965. Playwright Succumbs ZURICH, Switzerland Max Frisch, the Swiss novelist and playwright who focused on the predicament of man in modern society, died Thursday. He was 79. He settled in his native Zurich in 1983 after three years in New York, a city he liked because "every invented story is possible there." Frisch, considered the dean of Germanlanguage literature, was one of the most influential writers in the post-World War II era. His works, including I Am Not Stiller and Man in the Holocene, were translated into 37 languages.

Andorra and The Firebugs, his bestknown plays, became standard theater repertory in many countries. Like the late Bertolt Brecht, a close friend, he believed the stage should not allow the audience to escape into an illusion of reality. Written in the tradition of German expressionism, the works dealt with the individual's search for an identity and his striving to cope with bigotry and totalitarianism. Frisch described himself as a pacifist and socialist but never joined a party. He won several literary awards but the Nobel Prize eluded him.

In receiving the prestigious Peace Prize of the German book trade, he was cited for his "quiet perseverance in fighting abuse of power and ideological demagoguery and in defending the rights of the independently thinking, the minorities and the powerless Frisch was born May 15, 1911, the youngest child of a self-educated architect. He preferred playing soccer to reading; Uncle Tom's Cabin was among the few books he recalled having read. Frisch studied German literature at Zurich University but halted his studies for financial reasons when his father died. A Jewish woman from Berlin with whom he lived made him aware early on of the dangers of the Nazi takeover in neighboring Germany. After three years working as a journalist, he studied architecture at Zurich's Technical University.

At that time, he decided to give up writing and burned all his early manuscripts because they failed to draw critical notice. Following his discharge from wartime service with the Swiss militia, he worked in an architect's office but also resumed writing. The Wall of China (1946), which deals surrealistically with the perils of dictatorship, was the first to win international attention. Next was I Am Not Stiller (1954), the story of a sculptor anti-hero who tries to shed his identity and take up a new life. He burned an early draft of the novel, written during his first stay in the United States, because be was not satisfied with it.

The masterpiece in his late years was Man in the Holocene (1980), the story of an old man who projects onto nature the sense of personal doom. Frisch's most widely known dramas included The Firebugs (1958), a powerful humor parable in which a philistine Herr Biedermann welcomes two arsonists to his house and sees it go up in flames. Andorra (1961) symbolizes the destructiveness of prejudices by telling the story of Andri, mistakenly identified as a Jew. He chosen to die as a Jew rather than accept the Aryan identity that would have saved his life. His last book was Bluebeard (1982), a widely praised novella about a doctor who explores conscience after being acquitted of charges of murdering one of his seven wives.

Throughout his literary career he was critical of his native country. In Stiller, be Health Brief Jay County Health Fair PORTLAND, Ind.

Coast Guard Rescues 106 Haitian Refugees MIAMI (AP) The Coast Guard rescued 106 Haitian refugees Friday from an unstable, woodenhull boat that had drifted at sea for 8 days, and immigration authorities will determine the asylum seekers' next destination. Coast Guard officials transferred the Haitians, including 15 children and two women who are 8 months pregnant, from the 55-foot tug to two cutters after waiting alongside all night for heavy seas to subside. The transfer, about 10 miles southeast of Lake Worth Inlet south of Palm Beach, took several hours to complete, said a Coast Guard official, Petty Officer Robert Coombs. Immigration and Naturalization Service officials flown to the cutters Manitou and Point Charles began interviews to determine whether the Haitians should be returned to their homeland or be allowed to enter the United States.

Haitian refugee advocates appealed to immigration authorities allow the boatload to be brought to shore while the interviews were conducted. They said they expected most of the refugees to be denied entry. "The point that we are asking is that these people be treated as human beings, not as dogs," said Rolande Dorancy, executive director of the Haitian Refugee Center in Miami. The refugees' chances of gaining political asylum on the grounds that they face persecution if returned home were already slim before Jean-Bertrand Aristide became Haiti's first freely elected president in December. Now they're almost nil, Dorancy said.

The number of Haitian refugees sailing for U.S. shores has dropped this year, but the impoverished island nation remains unsettled. A civilian aircraft spotted the tug boat, named My Friend, disabled and adrift about 13 miles east of Miami on Thursday, Coombs said. It was reported to be taking on water, and a helicopter dropped a radio and a pump to the refugees. Ensign Andrea Palermo said the Coast Guard cutters were sent out, but 8-to-10-foot seas and 40-to-45knot winds made rescue efforts impossible.

The Coast Guard launched its 17- foot life raft and put two people aboard the vessel to check the refugees, but none needed medical assistance. The cruise ship Emerald Seas, sailing from Fort Lauderdale to Nassau, Bahamas, was diverted to aid with the rescue. Later Thursday, the ship was put on standby after it was determined the Haitian boat would not sink. Soviet Union Signs Pact With Romania MOSCOW (AP) The Soviet Union and Romania signed a treaty of friendship and cooperation Friday, Moscow's first accord with one of its former Eastern European allies since the collapse of the Soviet bloc 2 years ago. The treaty, which gives a legal base for future bilateral relations, was signed in the Kremlin by President Mikhail S.

Gorbachev and Romanian President Ion Iliescu, the Tass news agency said. Foreign Minister Alexander Bessmertnykh said Iliescu's visit set an important example of how the Soviet Union is updating its relations with Eastern Europe. "From multilateral agreements within the framework of the Warsaw Pact, the Soviet Union is proceeding to mostly bilateral accords and contacts," Tass quoted Bessmertnykh as saying. He said the new treaty would pave the way for similar accords with other East European states, including Bulgaria, Hungary, Poland and Czechoslovakia. Bessmertnykh said the Eastern European countries, after the watershed year of 1989, have been able to sort out their interests and decide how to build relations with both the East and West..
