There have been local alerts such as one earlier this year in California when the Unabomber threatened to blow up an airliner. Many of the heightened security measures will be behind-the-scenes and invisible to passengers. However, longer lines and delays are possible because some passengers will be questioned more closely at check-in and security screening may move more slowly. (Bud Pearl, security manager for Honolulu International Airport, said he plans to beef up security with more patrol officers in response to the FAA announcement. He said passengers probably won't even notice the increase in surveillance.

However, signs are posted describing limited access to the gate areas between midnight and 5 a.m. (Airlines will have to ensure that travelers don't carry packages for other people, he said. But there will be no increase in X-ray machines or other security checks.) The FAA will not order two unpopular security moves it made during the Persian Gulf War elimination of curbside luggage check-in and a prohibition against visitors inside the security area in airports. One source said security is likely to be tightened further within the next month or two. The directive advises all security forces to be prepared to go to the "next" security level, where passengers over 18 would be required to produce photo IDs when checking in and where passengers who paid cash for a ticket within 14 days of the flight would be subject to a special search.

security forces said the alert is based on "sensitive intelligence and law-enforcement information as well as several important current and future events." Sources said those include the recent arrest of an alleged Palestinian terrorist leader and the trial in New York stemming from the World Trade Center bombing. The directive stresses that Washington Post WASHINGTON The Federal Aviation Administration has ordered tighter security at U.S. airports because of the increased possibility of terrorist attacks in the next few. months, U.S. aviation sources said yesterday.

The agreement still has to be ratified by the owners and players in voting to be held at an as yet unspecified date.

This apparently also does not end the decertification push by the Michael Jordan-led group that wants to go forward with its antitrust suit against the league. "This deal may not please everybody, but I think it will be ratified," union president Buck Williams said. "We're very happy the NBA met our concerns." "This deal meets the key objections that have been voiced by players over the past several weeks," added NBA deputy commissioner Russ Granik. Terms of the deal: Creation of a new $1 million exception for teams over the salary cap to sign free agents. Restoration of the exception that allows teams to replace injured players at 50 percent of their salary.

Yesterday's event was sponsored by the Lighthouse affiliate of the Fellowship of Reconciliation and the Buddhist Peace Fellowship.

To mark the exact. time that the plutonium bomb exploded half a century ago 11:02 a.m. the bustling port city of Nagasaki came to a momentary standstill today. Temple and cathedral bells tolled all over the city. Sirens shrilled.

People bowed their heads in silence. About 70,000 people died in the explosion or its immediate aftermath. The city keeps track of subsequent deaths it believes are attributable to the blast; the roster has risen to more than 100,000. The war In the Pacific Japan had put together a string of conquests across the Pacific and Into Asia. Then came the Battle of Midway.

In Just minutes, the entire position of the Japanese forces In the Pacific changed from dominant to defensive. Part 11 of our series continues today on Page A2.

Jones, 73, a retired secretary with the Judiciary's juvenile detention home, remained composed during her testimony at the trial of Janet Bowman, the first person charged under negligent homicide laws usually used to prosecute motorists. Two spectators from the state Attorney General's Office watched from the gallery and quietly sniffed back tears. "I went to pieces emotional-4y, and my friends did, too," Jones said. "We all had a hell of a cry." See Trial, Page A2 By Ken Kobayashi Advertiser Courts Writer At first, Shirley Jones wasn't sure she wanted to see her husband one last time. The widow of Cannon Jones had just been notified at Queen's Medical Center that he was dead, killed by what the prosecution says was the propeller of a boat Her first thought was that she wanted to remember her husband the last time she saw him alive blowing her a kiss through his face mask off the waters of Waikiki, she told a Circuit Court jury yesterday.

But she also recalled that she would tuck him in bed each night and rub his feet that were sore from his daily six- or seven-mile walks.
