(Note: Although they are really not the same vegetable, sweet potatoes are often called "yams" in this country. In this sense, fresh or even canned (drained) yams may be used in this recipe.) 1 unbaked 9-inch pie shell About 1 to 2 tsps. egg white, lightly beaten (optional) (may be taken from the egg whites in the filling) Filling % cup orange juice 2 large eggs 2 large egg whites 2 cups mashed cooked sweet potatoes (from about 3 medium-sized ones weigh- ing a total of about 2 pounds)* % cup sugar 2 tbsps. honey 1 tbsp. cornstarch 1 tsp. vanilla extract 1 tsp. ground cinnamon 1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg 1 /4 tsp. ground allspice Use a fork to prick holes all over the pie shell. Press a piece of alu- minum foil on top of the shell; then fill the bottom with any kind of dry beans or some aluminum "pie weights." (This helps prevent crust shrinkage during baking. The beans or pie weights can be reserved, and used repeatedly for the same purpose.) Bake the pie shell in a pre- heated 400-degree oven for 15 minutes. Use the foil to lift out the beans, and set both aside. Return the cust to the oven, and bake it an additional 7 to 10 minutes or until it is very lightly browned. If desired, brush the bottom of the crust lightly with the egg white, and return it to the over for 1 to 2 minutes longer or until the white is set. Cool the shell on a wire rack until it is needed. For the filling, put all the in- gredients in a food processor or blender in the order listed, and process until completely com- bined and smooth. Pour the filling into the shell, and bake in a pre- heated 350-degree oven for about 55 to 60 minutes or until the fil- ling is set, and a knife inserted in the center comes out almost clean. Cool the pie on a rack before serv- ing. Refrigerate for longer stor- age. Makes about 8 servings. *(Note: Any method can be used to cook the sweet potatoes. A quick one is to peel them, and cut them into 1/2- to 3/4-inch cubes. There should be about 4 cups. Put the cubes in a saucepan with about 1 inch of water. Steam them, covered, until tender, about 20 minutes; then drain them im- mediately, and mash while still warm.)

His death brought to 602 the number of fatalities sustained by the Israel Defense Force in Leba- non since the invasion of that country in June 1982. It was the second IDF fatality in south Lebanon this month and casualties continue to mount. Three soldiers were wounded Monday, two of them when an IDF convoy was attacked near Jibshit village in the western sector of the front and another in a convoy at- tack just north of the Zaharani River. Defense officials seemed confi- dent, meanwhile, that the Israel-Lebanon talks aimed at the withdrawal of the IDF from south Lebanon will resume shortly at Nakura. The talks, under United Nations auspices, began last week, but were suspended by the Beirut government over the weekend to protest the arrest by Israeli authorities of four leaders of the Shiite Moslem militia, Amal, believed responsible for the increased incidence of attacks on the IDF in south Lebanon. There was been intense behind-the-scenes activity to get the talks re-started, involving U.S. Assistant Secretary of State Richard Murphy who is in the region. Officers of the United Na- tions Interim Force in Lebanon (UNIFIL) were reported Tuesday to be readying their headquarters in Nakura for the second round of talks. Israeli sources indicated they may be prepared to release some of the Amal detainees. They made it clear, however, that this would not mean a lessening of IDF ac- tion 'against terrorists. The talks are officially under UN auspices. UNIFIL comman- der, Gen. William Callaghan of Ireland, is attending, but the Is- raelis and Lebanese disagree sharply on the nature of the UN role. Brig. Gen. Amos Gilboah who heads the Israeli delegation, stated his government's position that the UN is simply the "host" and Callaghan an "observer." Is- rael insists the meetings are a bilateral matter between Israel and Lebanon. The head of the Lebanese dele- gation, Brig. Gen. Mohammed El-Hajj, maintains Beirut's posi- tion that the talks are being held in the framework of the old Mixed Armistice Commission, a relic of Israel's war for independence in 1948-1949 which Israel claims was abrogated by Lebanon in 1967, and views the UN as a mediator with Callaghan serving as chairman. The delegations will tackle sub- stantive matters of the future ses- sions. As far as Israel is con- cerned, the substance and almost sole concern of these talks is the continued security of Israel's northern borders once the IDF pulls out of south Lebanon. Israelis want the security pro- visions enshrined in a formal document to emerge officially from the Nakura meetings. They stress, however, that this would be something of a rubber stamp endorsing agreements that will, hopefully , be reached in the covert bargaining between Israel and Syria via the U.S. They cited Syria's traditional obduracy and Lebanon's appar- ently irreconcilable internal di- visions of the two major obstacles. Israel has four demands: A Sy- rian pledge, given directly, or in- directly through the U.S., not to deploy its forces in Lebanon further south once the IDF evacuates; another Syrian pledge not to permit the Palestine Liber- ation Organization to infiltrate through Syrian lines into south Lebanon after the IDF leaves; the continuation of the Israel- supported South Lebanese Army (SLA), commanded by Gen. An- toine Lehad, in its role of main- taining security in the strip of territory just north of the Israeli border; and expansion of UNIFIL to maintain security north and east of the region the IDF will evacuate. The inducement for Syria is the removal of the Israeli forces now facing its army in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley and their potential threat to Damascus.
