Deputy Foreign Minister Arun Bhanubhongse, visiting Moscow next week for talks with Soviet officials, will raise the question of Soviet naval ships approaching close to Thai territorial waters, a ministry spokesman has said. He said the ministry was still waiting for a Soviet explanation of why the four vessels, including the giant aircraft carrier Minsk, approached Thai waters a week ago. A highly-placed source in the Thai Supreme Command said the four ships, also including two destroyers and a geological survey ship, came within 94 nautical miles of inailands 12-mile limit in the Gulf of Thailand before returning to Cam Ranh Bay in southern Vietnam. He described the lack of notice of the maneuver as "bad manners." Minister calls for summit tsanrain ? foreign Minister Mohammad Ibn Mubarak A1 Khalifa of Bahrain says President-elect Ronald Reagan may adopt an anti-Arab policy and called for an Arab summit conference to deal with the prospect, according to the newspaper Akhbar Al-Khalij. "It is likely that Reagan will recognize Jerusalem as capital of Israel," Khalifa was quoted as telling the paper. "However, it is not yet definite whether Reagan will honor his pre-election promises to Israel. The Arabs, therefore, will have to hold a summit conference to draw a clear-cut strategy and prepare themselves for all eventualities " i ... j?W9 >3K|' ^yi'?>Vii:'i;j:iii Fo/va Columbia fire engines responded to a fire alarm in Russell House Friday afternoon, \ out were was no tire when they arrived.

Guitarist out of hospital LOS ANGELES ?

Tess Griffin, spokeswoman for Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, said Kantner, 39, left the hospital Friday after doctors conducted a series of final tests on the singercomposer.

Doctors at first thought he might require brain sureerv. but I changed their minds, Mrs. Griffin said. Would you change things? KANSAS CITY, Mo. ? If you had your life to live over, i. would you do almost everything in some other way? When this question was asked of six occupational groups in a nationwide research study sponsored by the American Academy of Family Physicians, the nation's largest medical specialty organization, roughly half of those questioned responded "Yes." The groups included business executives, family physicians, teachers, farmers, secretaries and garment workers. According to the findings, 75 percent of the garment worKers express a wisn to "do almost everything in a different way," compared with about 50 percent of the secreatries, 40 percent to 45 percent of the business executives, teachers and farmers, and only 33 percent of the doctors. The report indicates that doctors tend to be the most content with the lives they have made for themselves. And this conclusion is supported by another finding of the study. When survey participants were asked whether there was any occupation they would prefer to their present one, all groups mentioned medical careers in their top three choices. TV viewing lowers grades W VJ* SACRAMENTO, Calif. ? A California survey indicates that the more a student watches television, the worse he does in school. California Schools Superintendent Wilson Riles has said that no matter how much homework the students did, how intelligent they were or how much money their parents made, the relationship between TV and test scores was practically identical. Riles concluded that for educational purposes, television "is noi an asset and it ought to be turned off." He said he didn't expect that to happen on a large scale, but urged parents to at least try to be selective. More than 500,000 California public school students in the sixth and 12th grades who took tests in reading, language use and arithmetic last year also revealed how much television they watched. Riles said the results did not necessarily prove that television watching is a direct cause of lower test scores, but "there are strong statistical relationships." Bb mKH ^j/jm ." .'

If the president-elect should designate the AlliedGeneral Nuclear Services plant in Barnwell as an awayfrom-reactor storage site, "we are going to fight him tooth and nail," Lowe said. Santee motels have shields SANTEE ? Some motels in this popular resort area are conducting business through bulletproof glass because of a rash of robberies and murders at area motels this year. Three motels - Best Western, Ramada Inn, and Clarks have installed bulletproof glass to protect their clerks. The cages are similar to those used by banks to serve drive-in customers. "I'm locking my door when the sun goes down and waiting on guests through my bank window," said Barbara Driceers of thp Rpst w#>?itorn A clerk at the Best Western was robbed, abducted, and shot to death last March. The owner of the nearby Delta Inn was robbed and killed in an incident last month. William Parks, manager of the Ramada Inn, blamed the economy for the recent attacks and predicted the situation will get worse as the holiday season approaches.

"We would like very much for this to cease and we do intend to enforce the law. We really don't want to arrest anybody, but we will," he continued. "We want people to enjoy the ball game like they should be able to." Camden firemen want union CAMDEN ?
