SAIGON (AP) Nearly three weeks after Communist forces took over Saigon with almost no bloodshed, there still is no sign of a civilian government for the city.

Markets and shops are open, and looting has been reduced. But the banks are still closed, and many residents and offices are hard pressed for money. International airline schedules have not been resumed. Telephone and telex circuits abroad are still cut, although there is cable traffic to Hong Kong and via Hanoi to Paris. The Viet Cong presence appears minimal.

Some observers, say they do not have enough people on hand yet to undertake the management of a city of 3.5 million. There is talk of quick reunification with North Vietnam, perhaps within the year. Mail and telegraph service between North and South Vietnam has resumed for the first time since the country was partitioned by the 1954 Geneva agreement. Most of the troops in Saigon perhaps 90 per cent are North Vietnamese. They hold all the strategic positions including Tan Son Nhut air base and have scores of tanks, armored personnel carriers, artillery pieces, antiaircraft guns and surface-to-air missiles defending the city.

But it is not known how many troops are in the city. Ostensibly the city is being run by the Viet Cong's military management committee, headed by Lt. Gen. Tran Van Tra. Asked at his first news conference, on display near "Looters Sign reads person." will tical meetings are being held; usually one member from each household is required to attend.

Students, women's groups and block committees are being organized, but in a scattered fashion. There have been no visible signs or reports of any reprisals. There is speculation that high-ranking officials of the former government eventually will be questioned and perhaps be Mrs. Sims HUMBOLDT Services for Mrs. Rachel Sims, 90, will be at 1 p.m.

Lillie Adams of Lawrenceburg. HEAR Mrs. Hughes Dr. William Grcathouse IN REVIVAL SERVICES Rescued Captain Identified As Dad AY A looter, shot dead, put on Saigon central market. May 8, when the transition to a civilian government might take place, he said: "We cannot tell you There has never been a city so large liberated so quickly and there are many problems to be solved.

The reason for the organization of the military management committee is to restore normal life, to restore security and many other matters." On the surface, Saigon is tranquil, but there is an underlying sadness and fear of what lies ahead. There is fear of regimentation. "Study-practice" poli- said, "I didn't even know if he was' living. When I was born, he and my mother were divorced. "I was five or so the last time I saw him," she recalled.

"He took my brother and me to an Oakland department store and told us to buy anything we wanted for our Christmas presents." "There's no bitterness towards him," she added. "Things like this happen when people get divorced." Mrs. Pedersen, now a mother of four, said she was sending a letter to the captain in Hong Kong. The 62-year-old sea captain's present wife, Ann Miller, of Fountain Valley, declined to either confirm or deny whether he had been married previously or had children. "They should ask my husband that, "she said.

Sea-Land Company, the Oakland-based owner of the Mayaguez, said the ship would be in Hong Kong for five days, but Miller was not available immediately for comment. Services for Mrs. Julia A.

daily report AP Wrephoto like this be shot dead made to face a people's court. Duong Van Minh, who surrendered the city less than 40 hours after being sworn in as president of South Vietnam, is free but stays inside his home and doesn't see newsmen. The city bustles with activity. But the old spirit is gone, and melancholy hangs over the city, a sadness of hopes shattered, defeat, lost pride, shame and regret. 21 -25 Sizes For (o)C (0) TERRA LINDA, Calif.

(AP) A brother and sister say it took 22 years and an international incident to locate the seafaring father they claim is Charles T. Miller, captain of the U.S. merchant ship Mayaguez. "I tried to get hold of him a number of times like when I got married and when my two children were born," James T. Miller said in an interview Monday.

"Now he's got six grandchildren he doesn't know about." The 34-year-old electrician said he and his mother recognized the captain's voice and face in a television broadcast Saturday after Cambodia released the Mayaguez crew. "We compared old. photos to pictures in the papers," he added. "He's older now, but it's him. No doubt about it.

My sister and I are both excited and want to talk to him." His 28-year-old sister, Cheryl Miller Pedersen, Kelly McGee, Hollowrock, girl. Mr. and Mrs. William Morgan, 205 Hardee, girl. Occupancy: 377 Gibson County Hospitals (As of p.m.
