NEWS AGENCY'S LIKELY BUYERS NARROWED TO 3

Intense negotiations have been under way in Washington for a week aimed at finding a new buyer for United Press International, the news agency that has been struggling for six months to escape bankruptcy. After more negotiating this weekend with prospective buyers, representatives of U.P.I.'s management, union and creditors will meet Monday in the hope of selecting a purchaser. According to William Adler, a spokesman for the news agency, the prospective buyers have been narrowed to three: * Mario Vazquez Rana, a 53-year-old owner of El Sol chain of newspapers, based in Mexico City, and president of Mexico's Olympic Committee. Mr. Vazquez Rana's bid is said to offer creditors less than full repayment of U.P.I.'s estimated $25 million to $28 million in debts but to promise more than $25 million in capital investment, an official of the news agency said, and is considered by many to be the favorite of U.P.I.'s management. * Joe E. Russo, also 53, owner of The Russo Companies, which includes real estate development and financial services and ''controls, manages and operates assets in excess of $1 billion,'' according to Russell S. Rau, a company spokesman. Mr. Russo is represented by Lazard Freres & Company, the investment bankers, and has offered to repay creditors ''100 cents on the dollar in cash and securities,'' according to John Dysart, a Lazard Freres official. The Russo offer is said to promise less for capital investment than Mr. Vazquez Rana's.

MARCOS TALKS OF AN ELECTION
Date: 10 November 1985
Ferdinand E. Marcos demonstrated last week the kind of political skill that has allowed him to survive as President of the Philippines for 20 years. Under unusually strong United States prodding to face up to the threat of a Communist insurgency by introducing clean, democratic government, Mr. Marcos called for an election Jan. 17 to settle the ''silly'' charge that his Government is inadequate. The fact that Mr. Marcos made the announcement during an interview on American television while most Filipinos were asleep indicated how much more he was responding to pressures from Washington than to internal ones.

YOUNGEST CHESS CHAMPION: GARY KASPAROV
Date: 10 November 1985
Special to the New York Times
Even in chess, a game in which every great player was once a child prodigy, few champions have swept to the top as swiftly or relentlessly as Gary Kasparov. He began playing at the age of 6, and by the time he was 10 and a pupil at Baku Middle School 151, he had already attracted the attention of the chess world by taking first place in a young hopefuls tournament. He never looked back. By 13 he was the Soviet youth champion, at 15 he was competing in the Soviet championship, and at 16, in 1979, he swept through his first major international tournament, in Banja Luka, Yugoslavia. Competing against great grandmasters like Tigran Petrosian and Ulf Andersson, the dark-haired teen-ager gained eight victories and finished a full 2 points ahead of the next highest contender.

SOVIET PRESS TELLS OF AIDS OVERSEAS
Date: 10 November 1985
Special to the New York Times
After long maintaining silence about AIDS, the Soviet press in recent months has taken to reporting on the disease, though insisting that no cases have occurred in the Soviet Union. The Soviet reports have avoided saying the disease, acquired immune deficiency syndrome, is prevalent among homosexuals, since male homosexual acts are a crime in the Soviet Union and the subject is rarely mentioned in print. The press has said instead that ''in foreign countries AIDS is primarily found among people who lead a dissolute sex life and are inclined to sexual perversions,'' as well as among drug addicts who use unsterilized needles.

Disengaging From Marcos
Date: 10 November 1985
By Robert A. Manning

When President Ferdinand E. Marcos called last week for early elections at the beginning of next year, he hoped above all to deflect American demands for political, military and economic reforms in the Philippines. In fact, his announcement only highlighted the pressing need for change and for American measures to further it. There is a growing consensus in Washington that the United States must get tough with Mr. Marcos, but there is little idea of what to do. To its credit, since the murder of the opposition leader Benigno S. Aquino Jr., in August 1983, the United States has distanced itself from the Marcos regime. It has pursued a dialogue with the opposition and stepped up calls for reforms. But vast amounts of American economic aid have continued to flow to Manila -part of a policy of ''constructive engagement'' that has led Mr. Marcos to believe that the United States needs him more than he needs us.
