Pentagon Lists Men Captured By Cambodia WASHINGTON (AP) The Pentagon listed by name Monday the 11 Army men held by Cambodia since their small boat was captured in Cambodian waters July 16.

The State Department, which has asked for return of the men, said meanwhile it has received no formal notice of rejection. Press reports from Phnom Penh indicated that the Cambodian government has turned down the U.S. request for release of the men and the ship. Efforts to obtain their release are contin- uing. The State Department said the vessel moved inadvertently into Cambodian waters because of a navigational error while it was proceeding up the Mekong River in South Vietnam.

As in the case of captured men, the Pentagon declined to give home towns and of kin of the men. The list: WO Ralph W. McCullough. Sgt. 1.C.

OWERRI, Biafra (AP) way Biafra and the Nigerian to try and negotiate a cease- Biafran leader Odumegwu Ojukwu says he hopes for an early cease fire in Nigeria's bloody civil war and expects peace talks to begin at Addis Ababa in about a week. He expressed optimism about chances for a temporary truce between the armies of federalists, to get talks started.

Ernest F. Hollings, will participate in against any confirming Senate Abe Fortas as Supreme Court chief justice but only on his liberalism on the tribunal. "I will join" such a talkathon "whether organized by southerners, northerns, Republicans, if or such a Democrats," filibuster is "on the issues" of Fortas' activist record in his three years on the court. But Hollings said the threatened talkathon by 18 GOP senators including Sen. Strom Thurmond, is "just a party effort" to prevent confirmation now in the hopes that a Republican President will be elected in November and can name the chief justice next year.

"I haven't changed my mind," said Hollings, although he told newsmen here on June 26 he would not participate in a filibuster and would oppose one. At that time he hadn't decided where he stood on Fortas and (ex-Texas Congressman Homer Thornberry, were nominated by President Johnson to fill the vacancies on the court if 77-year-old Chief Justice Earl Warren goes through with his retirement plans. Almost two weeks ago Hollings came out against Fortas and last Friday he said he and several other southern Democrats were discussing a "minibuster" of their own separate from the GOP one against Fortas on the justice's liberal court record. The Republicans, led by Michigan's Robert charge Johnson with "cronyism" because he nominat ed two old friends in Fortas and Thornberry and "lame duckism" for trying to name the new chief justice to prevent a possible GOP president next year from doing so. Hollings said he "won't join in a subterfuge of the people," and sharply criticized several GOP senators for the cronyism and lame duck issues.

He pointed out that Sen. Howard Baker has said he would vote for Fortas next year after the November elections.

John M. Bailey, the chairman, told newsmen at O'Hare International Airport that "I hope the convention will be in Chicago." He evaded efforts by newsto pin him down on when a men decision might be made. "I don't make decisions alone," he said, and added that the convention "might be A strike by the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers against Illinois Bell has prevented installation of television, press and phone radio and equipment at the International Amphitheatre where the presidential nominating meeting is scheduled to begin Aug.

26. Mayor Richard J. Daley announced that he would meet with Bailey later Monday. Dalhas made several unsuccessey ful efforts to mediate the 76-day strike. Bailey's remarks that the convention might be apparently ended speculation that a contract between the Democratic party and the city would be binding and prevent moving the convention.

"There's no question that we had an agreement with the city which lived up to its part," Bailey said. "We find a new problem, however, which didn't expect to have when we signed the contract." Bailey was asked if the convention could be held without television coverage. "I think television coverage is important," he said. He also was asked if he had discussed taking the convention to Miami Beach with that city's fire. Ojukwu was cheerful and relaxed at a Sunday news conference following his return from Niamey, Niger, where a committee of the Organization of African unity discussed prospects for ending the year -old war.

The bearded, 33-year-old leader sat in a red arm chair on the lawn of a civil servant's house, clad in a plain gray shirt and blue slacks. The conference could haven been an ordinary Sunday party except for a ring of guards with submachine guns who meticulously searched all 1 visitors. Ojukwu appeared pleased with the results of his the secret and sudden trip to OAU meeting, where delegates announced that Biafra and Nigeria had agreed to discuss peace in Addis Ababa. He referred to Gowon as "my good friend." "Most people were rather surprised to see me there," he said. "It showed for the first time that there are two sides in the Nigerian conflict." Ojukwu said he has asked Lagos to accept either "a general cease-fire, a truce of limited period or a truce of limited A Biafra Nigeria peace conference in Kampala, Uganda, collapsed last May over what should be discussed first cease-fire demanded by Biafra or political issues demanded by Nigeria.

officials. "I have not talked to anyone in Miami Beach," he said. He added that he did not set a deadline for resolving the Chicago situation, nor did he say if he had scheduled talks with either side in the labor dispute. Both camps were quiet Monday after Sunday's dampening of hopes for a quick settlement. The chief spokesman for the IBEW, Robert Nickey, said Sunday the union would not agree to a moratorium on the strike as Illinois Gov.

Samuel Shapiro hinted might happen. On the other side, Bell's negotiators reacted cooly to an IBEW proposal that the telephone company submit to binding arbitration if a referendum showed that employes would not accept Bell's wage offer. In Miami Beach, a labor dispute produced minor interference with plans for the GOP nominating gathering scheduled to start Aug. 5. Pickets lined up for the third day at the city's convention hall and work was nearly at a standstill.

Electrical workers also are involved in the Miami Beach dispute which started three days ago when the union protested against CBS-TV using one of its employes for a certain job.
