The Daily Bulletin in Dunn, N.C., and The Raleigh News and Observer before joining The Associated Press in New York. Famous Photos What will actor Dustin Hoffman do with a picture of former President Richard Nixon jumping into the air? Hoffman paid $325 for Philippe Halsman's snap of a light-hearted Nixon at an auction at Sotheby Parke Barnet, a.

spokeswoman for the auction house said. In addi- tion, Hoffman paid $725 for a picture of Abraham Lincoln believed to have been taken by Matthew Brady, the famous Civil War photographer, and 12,100 for an album of photos taken in the 1920's by Doris Ulmann. The album, "Roll Jordan, Roll," is a study of blacks living in Appalachia. Goering's Diaries to be Auctioned The war-time diaries of Hermann Georing, commander of the Nazi air force during World War II, have been authenticated and will be sold to the highest bidder, London's Sotheby's auction house said Wednesday. But it will be "many, many months before there is any question of a sale," a Sotheby's spokesman reported.

Goering, a right-hand man to Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler Skinny Bobby Harper has left WGST radio after all, but his fans will be glad to know the popular disc jockey will be staying in Atlanta. According to Dick Meeder, general manager of 96 Rock (WKLS-FM), Harper will take over the station's 6 to 10 a.m. slot on Monday. Harper, known for his thin frame and zany on-air antics, previously held down the same slot at WGST, but found himself without a job when WGST decided to go to an all-news format. It was later announced that Harper would stay with WGST to host a nighttime talk show, but the program never reached the air.

Meeder said 96 Rock hired Harper in an effort to beef up its early morning ratings. He said Harper will conduct "basically a Bobby Harper-style of personality morning show" and will be joined by WATL-TV personality Arty Goodman, who will handle the news segments. Harper said he's "looking forward to it with great anticipation. It's a good chance to stay on in the morning, which is what I know." Clifton Daniel Retires E. Clifton Daniel, associate editor of The New York Times, marked his 65th birthday Wednesday and the end of 50 years in journalism, 33 of them at The Times.

He had been the' newspaper's foreign correspondent and chief of bureau in London, Bonn and Moscow, managing editor, and chief of the Times' Washington bu during most of World War II, kept three personal diaries with jottings about the war from 191 through 1944, according to Sotheby's. Duchess of Kent Loses Baby The Duchess of Kent, 44, has lost the baby she was expecting in February, her husband announced Wednesday. The Duke of Kent, cousin of Queen Elizabeth II, emerged from London's King Edward VII hospital, and told reporters, "She's lost the baby." The Duchess, who would have been 45 at the time of the expected birth, was hospitalized Tuesday night and the Duke summoned home from an official visit to Iran. They have three other children, aged 15, 13 and 7. Drug Charges Dropped Cocaine charges against country music star Waylon Jennings have been dropped temporarily at least.

But Jennings' lawyer says it may be a ploy to avoid giving him a speedy trial. Acting on the request of prosecutors, a federal judge on dismissed charges of conspiracy to possess cocaine against Jennings and Mark Rothbaum of Danbury, an employe of Jennings' business manager. However, the charges were dismissed without prejudice, which means they could be brought up again. 1 -AQOr 5. Diana Ross as 'Dorothy Broadway musical, "The Wiz" in New York's World Trade Center.
