Spokesmen for President Corazon Aquino and the rebel National Dem ocratic Front said the 60-day cease fire would begin at noon today (10 p.m. Tuesday CST) as scheduled. Both sides said the agreement provides that armed guerrillas will not enter “population centers” and soldiers will not confiscate rebel weapons during security patrols. One of Aquino’s first acts after be coming president last February was to free political prisoners, including some former Communist leaders, as part of a “national reconciliation” that also involved seeking a cease fire with the rebels. She said there was no reason for them to continue fighting because President Ferdinand E. Marcos had fled the country. Defense Minister Juan Ponce En- rile said she was too soft, and there were reports of coup plots by mili tary officers loyal to him. She fired Enrile on Nov. 23. The last-minute negotiations over the cease-fire stemmed from a mili tary threat to seize illegal weapons, including those belonging to the Communist New People’s Army that were found in “security operations.” Agreement came several hours af ter the military said rebels killed five people in an attack on the southern island of Mindanao. Af ter the attack, Gen. Fidellj mos, armed forces commandti dered the military toconduci a aggressive operations” against 3 redators of the peace, espd against Communist terrorists.

Four Palestinians have been killed and 27 wounded since clashes be tween Palestinians and Israeli sol diers began Thursday in the Israeli- occupied West Bank of the Jordan River and Gaza Strip. In New York, the U.N. Security Council passed a resolution Monday condemning the violence, and on Tuesday Egypt criticized the “violent repressive measures.” Egypt is the only Arab country that has signed a peace treaty with Israel. The Israeli Parliament debated three motions of no confidence in the government of Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir for its handling of unrest in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, which Israel' captured in the 1967 Middle East war. The motions came from both the political right and left and were defeated by the co alition government of the conserva tive Likud bloc and socialist Labor Party. In the Gaza Strip, troops shot a 16-year-old protester in the head when he tried to grab a soldier’s rifle at the Bureij refugee camp, an army spokesman said. The youth was in serious condition at Tel Hashomer hospital, the spokesman said. Another Palestinian teen-ager was slightly wounded when troops fired at stone-throwing demonstrators in a refugee camp near Bethlehem, according to the army.

The typical first-time bride is 23.3 years old when she goes to the altar, the highest median age for women to marry since the government started keeping that statistic in 1890. And the median age of 25.5 for their bridegrooms hasn’t been topped since 1900, according to the bureau’s study, “Marital Status and Living Arrangements: March 1985.” Addressing a wide variety of top ics the study also reported that: • The number of unmarried cou ples living together has leveled off at about 1.9 million after skyrocketing in recent years, confirming a prelim inary finding issued a year ago. New figures, due out later this month, are expected to show a small increase for 1986. • There were 128 divorced peo ple per 1,000 people living with their new spouses, up from 47 per 1,000 in 1970. The ratio for men is 103, compared with 153 for women, be cause men are more likely to re marry after divorce and do so sooner than women. • More than one American adult in 10 lives alone, triple the number since 1960, although the rate of in crease slowed in recent years as tighter economic conditions discour aged young people from setting up their own households. Indeed, among peopleajf£ ; 24, 60 percent of men and^ cent of women still lived# home with their parents or inf dormitories. That is up from : 1 cent of men and 35 pen- women in 1960.

The report also said the middle- income share of job growth dropped from 64.2 percent in the 1970s to 47.5 percent in the early 1980s. The two authors of the study — Barry Bluestone and Bennett Harri- sion, political economy professors at the University of Massachusetts-Bos- ton and Massachusetts Institute of Technology, respectively — said the proliferation of low-wage jobs points to growing U.S. income inequality. “If this pattern of development continues,” they said, “the standard of living of a growing proportion of the American workforce will be sig nificantly jeopardized.” Citing Census Bureau data, aud using the Consumer Price Index to account for inflation, the authors said they arbitrarily divided workers into three income categories: “Nearly three-fifths of ^ new employment generated 1979 and 1984 was low-waf pared with less thanone-fil the preceding (1973-79)pe# report said.
