Georgetown win streak ends at 29: 1C MARYLAND DEFEATS NOTRE DAME, 77-65, BUT BRANCH IS KEPT TO 6 POINTS: 1 CLOUDY SOMEWHAT WARMER SEE PAGE 8B SUNDAY JANUARY 27, 1985 VOL. 85 NUMBER 4 BALTIMORE, MARYLAND ONE DOLLAR on The oviet name Stadium team of 3 for Orioles owner talks about team, bouts with cancer talks arms By Henry Trewhitt Washington Bureau of The Sun WASHINGTON The Soviet Union yesterday assigned three familiar arms-control figures to deal with the United States, as the superpowers announced plans to revive negotiations in Geneva on March 12. A joint announcement here and in Moscow fixed the time and place of the talks and formally identified the three-man teams for each side. President Reagan, while saying he was "not euphoric" about the prospects of the talks, expressed hope that they would produce a treaty before his term ends in January, 1989. "The United States and the Soviet Union have agreed to begin negotiations on nuclear and space arms on March 12, 1985, in Geneva," the announcement said.

There were no surprises from either side yesterday. U.S. officials acknowledged that Moscow's choice of negotiators all of them experi i. -r ft. Mr.

Kampelman also will propose integrating defensive systems, the "space arms" of the announcement, with offensive weapons in the distant future. The Soviets strongly oppose U.S. research in space defense, claiming it actually represents an American drive for superiority. The other members of the U.S. team are former Senator John G.

Tower and career diplomat May-nard Glitman. Leading the Soviet delegation will be Viktor M. Karpov, a veteran arms-control negotiator who most recently represented Moscow at the suspended Strategic Arms Reduction Talks on limiting long-range weapons. According to Soviet reports yesterday, he again will negotiate the same weaponry, making him Mr. Kampelman's counterpart in status but Mr.

Tower's opposite number in actual negotiations. Space weaponry will be negotiated for the Soviets by Yuli A. Kvitsin-sky, adopting a new role. Mr. Kvit-sinsky formerly negotiated intermediate-range nuclear forces in talks that the Soviets abandoned along with the Strategic Arms Reduction Talks (START) in late 1983.

With his new mission he will be See ARMS. 1 By Richard Justice Sun Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON There's a letter of thanks from Soviet dissident Alexander Solzhenitsyn, autographed photos of Presidents Johnson, Ford, Carter and Reagan, and an eerie shot of a frail-looking Vince Lombardi at his final pro football game. There are honorary degrees from 12 universities, the John F. Kennedy Memorial Award and a Lawyer of the Year award from the District of Columbia Bar Association. If an office makes a statement about a man, the statement that Edward Bennett Williams's office makes is: power.

That is also the statement of the view from his eighth-floor office window, near the top of a building that is, physically, two blocks from the White House, but in the language of Washington power circles, a phone call from the Oval Office. He once turned down the directorship of the Central Intelligence Agency. He had a book "One Man's Freedom" that was on The New York Times best-seller list 17 weeks could never move past 'Sex and the Single he says. "I couldn't He once ran the Washington Redskins. He's now one of only three Democrats on the president's Foreign Intelligence Advisory Board.

But someone who knows him well says, "Far and away the greatest joy of his life is owning the Orioles." At 64, Edward Bennett Williams has recovered nicely from his fifth cancer operation, says he's itching to write another book, and carries a full load of cases at his 85-person law firm. One day last week, he invited a reporter into his office and, in a breezy, one-hour conversation, talked on subjects ranging from baseball to can-; cer. He all but promised not to move the Orioles from Baltimore, indicated he would welcome a new stadium, but emphasized he had never threatened to move his team if he didn't get one, and denied that he planned to fire Orioles manager Joe Altobelli. He also said that the 1985 Orioles could be better than 1983's championship team and that he expected not only newcomers Fred Lynn and Lee Lacy to be in his team's lineup on opening day, but also young Larry Sheets. Question: Would you talk about your vision for the Orioles over the next decade or so, where you want them to play and that sort of thing? Obviously, the stadium is the thing that comes up first.

Answer I haven't really had any grandiose ideas about any kind of facility. I've really been concerned solely about Laving a facility that is comfortable, convenient, accessible and pleasing to the fans. And also to my people. Really and I'm talk-See EBW, 1 3A, Col. enced and well-known from previous talks might work in Washington favor.

As previously reported, the U.S. delegation will be headed by Max M. Kampelman, a Democrat who has dealt extensively with the Soviets in contentious reviews of the 1975 Hel sinki accords. Pope begins Latin tour on 'social justice' theme THE SUNLLOYD PEARSON toward Bennett Williams says be very happy with the Onoles in Baltimore. Stadium focus of new game: gubernatorial politics In Caracas, pontiff quotes Columbus on spreading faith From Wire Services CARACAS, Venezuela Pope John Paul II opened a 12-day South American tour in this oil-rich country yesterday, quoting from Christopher Columbus and saying he hoped to encourage the strengthening of social justice throughout the region.

"Another world from where our faith can be spread," said the pontiff, using a phrase attributed to Columbus, as he disembarked from his plane at the end of the flight from Rome. The Genovese navigator, on his third voyage to the New World in 1498, stopped in Trinidad and then sailed across the mouth of the Orinoco River, in present Venezuela, but did not land on the continent. The Polish-born pontiff was greeted by cheers and a 21-gun salute on his sixth trip to Latin America and his 25th abroad, which promised to be one of his most grueling. Soldiers armed with automatic weapons surrounded the airport area. John Paul also has major stops in Trinidad and Tobago in the West Indies, before returning to Rome on February 6.

His speech last night to bishops assembled at the papal ambassador's residence appeared to set the tone for the trip. The region has been a testing ground for "liberation; theology," which calls for the church to actively defend the poor and seek solutions to political and social problems. John Paul II told the bishops they are "protectors of the deposit of the faith," and they must be vigilant "in order to remove from the flock errors that threaten it." He added: "You know very well that today, unfortunately, there are not lacking those who, abusing the mission to teach received from the church, proclaim not the truth of Christ but their own theories, at times in open contrast to the magis-terium of the church. "Just as neither are there lacking those that disfigure the evangelical message, using it as the service of ideologies and political strategies in search of an illusory earthly liberation which is not that of the church nor that of the true good of man." The pope said the bishops must quickly rectify such errors, "correcting with charity and firmness those See POPE. 2A, Col.
