He said he based his estimate on ae rial photographs taken of Mameyes before the emergency. “You can see the area was dense! The tropical depression, subse quently upgraded to Tropical Storm Isabel, hit the Florida coast on Thursday after crossing the Baha- populated, although you can’t te 11 exactly how many Homes there were because trees blocked the view,” he said. Puerto Rican authorities said Thursday that 75 bodies had been recovered from flooded commu nities and landslide debris on this U.S. commonwealth island of 3.2 million people in the Caribbean. Thirty-two of the bodies were un covered in Mameyes. Col. Jose Luis Carrillo, the Na tional Guard officer in charge of the rescue operation in Mameyes, said Carrillo said the stricken commu nity had been declared off limits to everyone but rescue workers and re porters.

Authorities estimated that more than 5,000 homeless people were put up in Red Cross shelters and schools. With him at The New York Hos- pital-Cornell Medical Center were nis fourth wife, Kathy Lee, and his four children, said Josh Ellis, a fam ily spokesman. “He faced death with a dignity and strength that astounded his doc tors,” Ellis said. "He fought like a lion.” Lights on marquees and theaters along Broadway were to be dimmed at 8 p.m. Thursday “in the king’s memory,” Ellis said. In his thousands of performances as the king of Siam, Brynner was lord and master over 189 wives, 447 children and 12 Annas during 34 years of stage performances that ended in June. The role brought him a Tony in 1952, an Oscar in 1957 for the film version, and a special Tony in June which actress Mary Martin pre sented. Family and friends held a private service Thursday, and a memorial service will be scheduled later, Ellis said. The family has asked that do nations be sent to the Yul Brynner Cancer Fund for Children at Memo rial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York. Updated will state cigarette labels specific dangers Associated Press WASHINGTON — New and specific health warnings are ap pearing on cigarette packages and advertising, a change medical experts hope will help persuade Americans to quit — or never start — smoking. “The public needs to know the danger, since this is the single most preventable source of heart disease, cancer and lung disease. I think that f reedom of choice . . . demands that this be an informed choice,” says Dr. John A. Oates, chairman of the department of medicine at Vanderbilt Univer- health problems is low birth weight babies, and this is some thing that can turn that around.” sity The new labels state specific dangers, including cancer, heart and lung disease and hazards to women and their ba- pregnant bies. Surgeon General C. Everett Koop says he is most pleased about the pregnancy warning. “Most people understand about cancer and heart disease,” he says. “If you have lung disease it’s pretty obvious you shouldn’t be smoking. But one of our big Dr. Kenneth Warner, chair man of department of health planning and administration at the University of Michigan, says “There is little question in my mind that they will be an im provement over the old label. “I particularly like the rotatio nal feature ... I think it will make smokers take a little bit closer look and give some thought to the issue,” he says. Oates added, “To hide from them (young people) the fact that if they do experiment there is a high probability of becoming ad dicted is leaving teen-agers con siderably in the dark.” The tobacco industry has not been enthusiastic about the new labels. “We feel that no scientific study has been done that demon strates, for example, that smok ing is a cause of coronary heart disease,” says Anne Browder of the Tobacco Institute. She calls the new labels a “prime example of wishful think ing” that will not change people’s smoking behavior. Koop disagreed. The old warn ing label “has been around for years, it’s old hat. After these things start to rotate ... it be comes sort of like a game, people wonder what the message is this time, and they look for it,” he says. A series of four different warn ings is coming into use, to be ro tated quarterly under a plan de veloped by cigarette makers and the Federal Trade Commission. The new warnings are: • Surgeon general’s warning: Smoking causes fang cancer, heart disease, emphysema, and may complicate pregnancy. • Surgeon general’s warning: quitting smoking now greatly re duces serious risks to your health. • Surgeon general’s warning: cigarette smoke contains carbon monoxide. • Surgeon general’s warning: smoking hy pregnant women may result in fetal injury, premature birth and low birth yveight. Orson Welles found dead in his home Associated Press LOS ANGELES — Orson Welles, who created the film classic “Citizen Kane” and a radio tale about a Mar tian invasion that terrified millions of listeners, died Thursday at his home, authorities said.
