It seemed a fitting place to step into after the warm if formal greeting offered last week by Victor Karpov, the chief Soviet negotiator for a new round of arms talks, to his U.S. counterparts, Max Kampelman, John Tower and Maynard Glitman.

Besides Kampelman, who will be chief negotiator and preside at the U.S. side on Star Wars discussions, the other key arms envoys are former Senator John Tower (START) and Career Diplomat Maynard Glitman (INF). Kampelman declined to estimate the length of the new negotiations. His view: "We must be prepared to stay at the negotiating table one day longer than the Soviets...
