Wayne B. Williams, arrested Sunday, was questioned about the slayings and released less than three weeks ago. He became the first person charged with any of the killings of 23 of juveniles and adults. Public Safety Commissioner Lee Brown told a hastily called news conference at the Fulton County Jail on Sunday that Williams had been charged with "one count of criminal homicide" in the death of Nathaniel Cater, 27, whose body was found May 24 in the Chattahoochee River.

Williams was jailed. waiting for his preliminary hearing to be set. ATLANTA MURDER VICTIM Nathaniel Cater, a 27-year-old black man whose body was found in the Chattahoochee River in May, wan the 28th and oldest victim on the list of slayings investigated by the Atlanta police special task force. Wayne Williams, who was first ques- tiioned in the slayings on June 3. was rearrested at his northwest Atlanta home Sunday and charged in the death of Nathaniel Cater.

(AP Laserphoto) Brown refused to say if Williams would be charged with any of the other killings. "That's something that's not to be discussed at this time." he said, adding that the investigation would continue "full steam ahead." After Williams was questioned June 3 and released 12 hours later. Brown said there was insufficient evidence for an arrest. He refused Sunday to discuss evidence gathered against Williams since then. However, an official close to the probe said the decision to charge Williams came after completion of additional lab tests comparing fibers from Cater's body with fibers taken from Williams' home.

Another official, who asked not to be identified, said a "consensus decision" to arrest Williams was reached Sunday afternoon when District Attorney Lewis Slaton met with Brown and other leaders of the special task force.

The spill occurred in the reactor's auxiliary building and in a discharge ventilation duct.

Radiation monitors detected the spill and isolated the.duct by shutting down fans, he said. But Frank said he was not authorized to say how much water spilled. "This is the only thing that the people have approved for release. This is all we know for sure," he said. Frank said the accident occurred at 5.30 p.m.

Duquesne light released the information to the public about five hours later. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission and emergency management officials in the Beaver County area were also notified as required. The reactor, which was in operation at the time, was not shut down because of the spill, he said.

There's a lot of evidence and the decision was based on the accumulation of evidence. Part of it is fibers." Williams called a news conference within hours of his release June 4 and told reporters who agreed notrto use his name or picture that he had nothing to do with any of the slayings. But he said he believed police still considered him a prime suspect in the killings and quoted FBI agents as telling him, "You killed Nathaniel Cater and you know it and you lied to us." Prosecutors said they would meet with Williams' lawyer today before scheduling a preliminary hearing. By law, Williams must get a hearing; within 72 hours of arrest unless he asks that his case be continued. DeKalb County Public Safety Director Dick Hand said Sunday he had no plans "at this time" to charge Williams with any of the five slayings under jurisdiction of his office.

He refused to say whether Williams was considered a suspect in any of the DeKalb County cases. WASHINGTON (AP) Justice Potter Stewart's departure from the Supreme Court is two weeks away, but it already has set off the biggest guessing game in town: Who will President Reagan select for the first opening on the court in six years? Within hours of Stewart's surprise announcement Thursday, a White House spokesman said the search for a successor got underway informally a month ago when Reagan was told of the justice's decision to retire. But no one in a position to know, least of all the president hfmself, was giving any hints as to who would be selected beyond dangling the possibility that it could be a woman, "There will be an announcement shortly," Reagan said. "We won't leave that vacant." The chief executive added that he was "always" on the lookout for someone to possibly become the court's first female member. He has hinted at that before, but has always stopped short of a public commitment to fill the first opening on the court with a woman.

Stewart, the affable Republican jurist Jong identified with the court's moderate middle ground, gave no' reason for his decision to retire July 3 and his office tried to quiet any speculation. "He's not going to be an ambassador, and he's not dying. There is no ulterior motive here." said Stewart's secretary, Carolyn Sand. She said the wealthy, 66- yearold justice was "retiring just to retire." Stewart invited reporters to a press conference possibly to give some reasons for leaving after 23 years the post he was entitled to keep for life. The last vacancy on the high court was created by the retirement of Justice William 0.

Douglas on Nov. 12. 1975. He died in January 1980. Thus Reagan will get to make an appointment in the first months of his presidency that eluded Jimmy Carter in four years in office The pressure from women's groups and others pushing their own candidates is expected to be intense.

Last Oct. 14, then- candidate Reagan said, "I am announcing today that one of the first Supreme Court vacancies in my administration will be filled by the most qualified woman I possibly find." Reagan also has been under pressure from conservative groups demanding administration nominees more in line with-their thinking. The president learned of Stewart's decision in a secret Oval Office meeting May 18. Deputy White House press secretary Larry Speakes said Reagan directed Attorney General William French Smith at that time to quietly start looking for a successor to Stewart. Speakes said Smith had been informally compiling names for a month, but had not yet checked with any potential nominees or submitted the names to the White House.

The search now will become more formal, according to Speakes. Any nominee will have to be approved by the Senate. Another presidential spokesman, David R. Gergen, said, "What we're looking for is the best qualified person, man or woman, but in that process highly qualified women would be given careful consideration." Most immediate speculation focused upon Smith, the attorney general and formerly Reagan's personal lawyer, and William Clark, a former California Supreme Court judge and close friend who now holds the No. 2 job at the State Department.

Among' the women being mentioned as possible nominees are Elizabeth Hanford Dole, Reagan's special assistant for public liaison: Carla Hills, secretary of Housing and Urban Development in the Ford administration; Rita Hauser. a New York lawyer; Cornelia Kennedy, a member of the 6th U.S. Circuit of Appeals: Mildred Lillie, a member of the California appellate court; and Sylvia Bacon, a District of Columbia Superior Court judge.
