International Fear of another volcanic eruption in Colombia drove thousands of people from towns around the 16,200-foot Nevado del Ruiz volcano, which exploded Wednesday and set off a mud avalanche. The Government, which first said there had been two new eruptions and ordered the evacuation of 200,000 people in the area, later said only that there might have been more eruptions and that there was ''no need to evacuate.''

BIG NEWS IN SOVIET: 5-YEAR PLAN, NOT THE SUMMMIT
Date: 17 November 1985

In the final days before Mikhail S. Gorbachev and President Reagan meet, the prospects for growth in the Soviet economy have received more attention here than the outlook for the summit meeting. Last weekend, Soviet newspapers devoted all of their six pages to the text of the draft guidelines for the five-year plan, 1986-90, including longer-term priorities through the year 2000. The plan is to be adopted at the 27th party congress opening in late February. The disparity in news coverage is a reflection of the emphasis that Mr. Gorbachev has placed on revitalizing and modernizing the economy since he took office in March.

Date: 18 November 1985
International Caspar W. Weinberger's letter to President Reagan last week urging him not make any commitments on two key arms issues in Geneva was defended by senior Reagan Administration officials. The officials said the Defense Secretary sent the letter not because he disagreed with present White House positions on those issues, but out of concern that they might not be maintained with sufficient firmness. Asked if Mr. Weinberger was going to be dismissed because of embarrassment over the letter, Mr. Reagan said, ''Hell, no!'' [Page A1, Column 6.] No extension of the 1979 arms pact with the Soviet Union is expected in Geneva. The White House national security adviser, Robert C. McFarlane, said it was unlikely that President Reagan would agree to a joint affirmation with Mikhail S. Gorbachev to extend the 1979 treaty. [A8:3.]

Senior Administration officials said today that Defense Secretary Caspar W. Weinberger did not disagree with White House positions on arms control but was concerned that those positions might not be maintained with sufficient firmness at the summit conference here. They said Mr. Weinberger, who wrote a letter to President Reagan urging that no accords be reached on two key issues, was apparently worried that officials less hawkish than he might be able to sway the President's thinking in a way he would strongly oppose. Strong Reaction by Officials The disclosure that Mr. Weinberger had written the letter touched off a strong reaction among Administration officials here, with one official saying that the the disclosure of the letter to the press had been an attempt to sabotage the summit meeting. The letter was not issued officially, but The New York Times and The Washington Post obtained copies of it and published reports on its contents.
