POLITICALLY ATTUNED ADMIRAL: WILLIAM CROWE JR.

Date: 11 July 1985

By Bill Keller, Special To the New York Times

Bill Keller

In 1962, when William J. Crowe Jr. was fresh from his first command as skipper of the diesel attack submarine Trout, the logical step for an upwardly mobile Navy man was nuclear submarine school. Instead, the young commander enrolled in Princeton to earn a doctoral degree in politics. The choice that seemed unusual then now seems prescient. The political skills he has learned in an extraordinarily broad array of assignments over a 42-year Navy career will be in great demand in his next job.

SPOKESMAN FOR THE NATION'S LAWYERS: WILLIAM WENDALL FALSGRAF

Date: 12 July 1985

Stuart Taylor

The man who will be president of the American Bar Association for the next year was groomed for the job for two decades, acquaintances say, but he almost didn't make it. William W. Falsgraf's first campaign for the top position ended unsuccessfully in 1982. After having climbed steadily through the A.B.A.'s byzantine organization, he lost to Wallace D. Riley, who said this week that ''maybe I worked a little harder'' at courting the 52 state delegates who had the votes. Most unsuccessful candidates for president of the Bar Association quietly fade away. Not Mr. Falsgraf. Two years later he collected enough votes to become president-elect nominee, and is about to be president.

Turk Denies Any Role In Attempt to Kill Pope

Date: 11 July 1985

A Turk accused of being the link between Soviet bloc intelligence services and a right-wing Turkish terrorist who shot Pope John Paul II in 1981 today denied having any part in a purported plot to kill the Pope. The 50-year-old Turkish businessman, Bekir Celenk, who Mehmet Ali Agca, the Pope's convicted assailant, says acted as an intermediary for a Soviet diplomat in Bulgaria and offered Mr. Agca $1.2 million to assassinate the Pope, appeared before a military tribunal investigating the killing in 1979 of a Turkish newspaper editor, Abdi Ipekci.

The Times at the Palaces

Date: 11 July 1985

The Times is celebrating its 200th anniversary today at Hampton Court Palace in Richmond, England. That's our cousin, The Times of London, a newspaper that won its independence under George III and has been ever since a pillar of English public life. Its history is the history of the newspaper, and we owe it much, even - since it invented both the editorial and the editorial ''we'' - our voice.

JERSEY OFFICIAL SAYS '77 ARMY REPORT URGED CLEANUP AT SITE OF MISSILE FIRE

Date: 12 July 1985

By Joseph F. Sullivan, Special To the New York Times

Joseph Sullivan

New Jersey's chief environmental official said today that a 1977 Army report - declassified Wednesday - described the site of a 1960 nuclear-missile fire near here as a health hazard that should be cleaned up. The official, Robert E. Hughey, Commissioner of Environmental Protection, said the report had been declassified after it had been requested by his department. He said it confirmed state concerns that the military had not been forthcoming with all the available data about the accident and its aftermath. After receiving the report, which he said recommended further tests at the closed missile site in Plumstead, Mr. Hughey sent a team here to check files for additional information.

COUNTDOWN PROCEEDING SMOOTHLY FOR SPACE SHUTLE BLASTOFF TODAY

Date: 12 July 1985

By William J. Broad, Special To the New York Times

William Broad

Space officials said the countdown was proceeding smoothly today toward a liftoff Friday for the space shuttle Challenger. Barring last-minute problems or bad weather, the shuttle and its crew of seven astronauts are to roar into space at 4:30 P.M. on an ambitious seven-day scientific quest to study the sun's atmosphere, the stars and a mysterious glow that has repeatedly surrounded the winged spaceships. Today the seven crew members, divided into two teams, ate, slept and worked in separate shifts to prepare for the mission's grueling schedule of back-to-back 12-hour shifts. Early this morning the astronauts sat down together for a meal, three eating dinner and four eating breakfast.

THE ALLIED ROLE IN 'STAR WARS'; AN IRRITANT TO JAPAN?

Date: 11 July 1985

By Andrew J. Pierre

Andrew Pierre

The Western Europeans are not the only ones being pressed to participate in research in the President's Strategic Defense Initiative. The Japanese, too, have been at the receiving end of the Administration's exhortations -somewhat less public pressures that nevertheless risk derailing an otherwise improving defense relationship. ''Star Wars'' must not join trade as a source of American-Japanese friction. Nor would the West's interests be served if, as a result of the initiative, the Japanese began to question both superpower nuclear deterrence and their own non-nuclear defense.

MOSCOW QUESTIONS PRESS REPORTS ON 'STAR WARS' CONCESSION

Date: 11 July 1985

Special to the New York Times

Soviet arms negotiators said here today that reports indicating that Moscow was now willing to accept an arms treaty permitting American research on a space-based missile defense were incorrect. The statement, issued by Valery Artemyev, an adviser to the Soviet delegation, was corroborated by a United States delegation official, although neither side would issue an outright denial of the reports. Mr. Artemyev, speaking with reporters, singled out a Washington dispatch in The New York Times on Tuesday that quoted Reagan Administration officials as having said that Soviet officials would be willing for the first time to accept an arms treaty allowing research on the space-based defense system popularly known as ''Star Wars.'' ''The article by Leslie Gelb,'' Mr. Artemyev said, referring to the writer of dispatch in The Times, ''as well as articles and reports of a similar content which appeared in other newspapers, do not reflect the actual state of affairs at the negotiations.'' Objections Not Specified When asked to explain what the Russians found objectionable, Mr. Artemyev invoked the confidentiality agreement between the two sides and said: ''It means the thing I referred to is incorrect.''

EUROPEAN LEADERS' QUANDARY

Date: 11 July 1985

By Eric R. Alterman

Eric Alterman

President Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative has put European leaders in a quandary. Few, if any, Europeans expect the initiative to fulfill Mr. Reagan's dream of rendering nuclear weapons ''impotent and obsolete.'' They are nevertheless extremely nervous about living in a world in which either superpower believed itself to be invulnerable to nuclear attack - for this would only increase European vulnerability to an unprovoked Soviet conventional attack or Soviet retaliation for American adventurism elsewhere in the world. Yet European leaders are also reluctant to renounce participation in the ''Star Wars'' project. This is partly for political reasons, but primarily because the Europeans expect that the American investment in new technologies will provide abundant commercial spinoffs and - assuming the Europeans do not participate -lead to increased American domination of European high-technology markets.
