The President m kin g a speech be f ore President Macapa al of the Philippines, who is bei ng entertained by him in B a li. President Macapagal - usually pl a ys the role of peace-m a ker. And tries to keep Malaysia and Indonesia-talking instead of fighting. Indeed even as Sukarno was metaphonically sh king his fist a surprise announcement revealed that Indonesia and the Philippines - had agreed to a new conference with Malaysia; the conference to be held at - Foreign Minister Level.

But even with the fog lifted , the puzzled searchers could find no trace of the jet's cabin - and the fifty-eight victims o f the crash. They are now planning to use submurged television to help in the search. But, high winds are forecast for tomorrow th a t again, could hold things up; -- as the fog didi today. FIGHT What did ) ou think of that fight last night? It will be discussed and written about for a long time to come. Al _ arzy rate, the Pttrse has been released. This mea11 that (lny o · ertones of possible ctlldr,ggery seem to ha e been elim . inated. The story today is that Liston was having some trouble dttring his training period, with his shoulder twinges. Bttt, he passed it off, belie · ving it was not important. Then, in the first round it seems that he popped ii out, and from then on ii became increasingly difficult for him to use that arm which by the sixth round had become almost r,seless. A weird ending to 011e of the strangest prize fights that I can remember. Many fans will be waiting for the fight pictures which may give a still better idea of just what happened. As for a ret11rn wttkk. fighl - it is assumed that Son,ay Li toll and CassitlS Clay will be at it again. 166~ within a year or so. FIGHT Echoes of the bi brawl -- are still resounding, wtth more q uestions about exactly what caused -- the incredible upset. Clay a n underdog at ei g ht to one -- beating L1dton, who w as considered invincible. SINATRA The Sinatras. Senior and J,inior. will have to cut short their travels - and hurry home tonight. F1·ank Seuior, who is 011 busines i,z Tokyo, and Frank Jtt11io1', isiting in Spain with step mother Ava Gardner - both ordered to appear in the Los A-ngeles court tomorrow. Still more questions to be asked - about that mysterious affair of yottng za"'3a Frank's kidnapping . fflIAL Det ai ls of that trial in Moscow -- a nd its results a re filterin into the news toni ght. Even thou gh western reporters a re barred. Nine people said to be sentenced to death -- of the twenty-four convicted. Their crime -- oper a ting on illicit knit-we a r business , and using mental patients to do the killing. Also bribin g Soviet officials to let them set up shop -- in Moscow squares and railway stations. Bribery and corruption -- and capitalism as well, Dick, 1n the workers ' paradise.

If she were it's doubtful the play would ever~ get started. Last night the spectacular Miss Taylor -- appeared at the dress rehearsal, and stopped the show.
