SURROUNDING a long table at a bar here, 20 journalists were laughing, drinking and telling tales of the old days with a frenzied and sometimes somber energy. They remembered when they were a group of young idealists working for a small morning newspaper in Hudson County -- and to them that experience seemed on a par with attending the best journalism school.

The New York Times said yesterday that it had asked an arbitrator to rule on terms under which the paper's drivers will work at a new printing plant in Edison, N.J., after a week of unsuccessful negotiations with leaders of the drivers' union. Negotiators for The Times and the Newspaper and Mail Deliverers Union of New York and Vicinity had been meeting since Oct. 18 trying to achieve a settlement that could speed opening of the $450 million plant, which has been ready for operation since late last year pending resolution of labor disputes.

This is about baseball, so everybody not interested can go to the next page, but before you do, let me tell you about seventh-grade music and me, and also warn you what's on the next page: "a lot of anger out there," that's what. Every newspaper published this week said the same thing: "There's a lot of anger out there." That's political writing, of course. Political writing goes through phases. It's now in its "lot-of-anger-out-there" phase.

After four years of medical school and another three for internship and residency, a doctor chooses a subspecialty: cardiology. Dermatology. Ophthalmology. But broadcast journalism, Dr. Atkinson? Indeed, a decade after receiving a master's degree from Columbia University's Graduate School of Journalism, Dr. Holly Atkinson set up practice in a television studio. Last month the 38-year-old former internist, who is a vice president at Lifetime Medical Television, joined NBC's "Today" show as its new medical correspondent, replacing Dr. Art Ulene, who has moved to ABC's "Home" show.

Following are excerpts from today's news conference by President Bush as transcribed by Reuters. OPENING STATEMENT After extraordinary debate and negotiation, we have reached an agreement with Senate Republican and Democratic leaders on a civil rights bill that will be a source of pride for all Americans. It does not resort to quotas, and it strengthens the cause of equality in the work place. Both the Administration and the Congress can present this legislation to the people of America as a new standard against discrimination and for equal opportunity.

The Horn & Hardart Company said the private investment firm North American Resources Ltd. would become a major shareholder in its mail order subsidiary Hanover Companies by making a $40 million investment in "various securities" of Hanover and Horn & Hardart. Horn & Hardart said N.A.R.'s investment had received the approval of its shareholders, holders of its 11 percent debentures, and its senior lenders. Horn & Hardart said N.A.R. had "sunstantial experience in corporate restructuring," and had already provided Hanover with a $30 million credit facility for working capital needs.

The Chrysler Corporation said it would begin building its hand-crafted, $50,000 Dodge Viper sports car at a refurbished stamping plant in Detroit on Nov. 18. Only three Vipers will be built this year and just 200 to 400 of the V-10-powered roadsters, reminiscent of the Shelby Cobra of the 1960's, are scheduled to be built in 1992. Production could increase to about 5,700 cars a year if demand is there, the company said. Chrysler says the $69 million program is on time and under budget. Initially, only 15 workers will be used to assemble the plastic-bodied, two-seat car. Chrysler says it hopes the Viper will establish its Dodge division in the high-performance car market shared by cars like Corvette ZR-1 and Ferrari.
