Reporters and columnists here are imploring their loyal readers not to buy the newspaper, in perhaps the most poignant proof of how bitter and damaging this city's five-day-old newspaper strike has already become. Supervisory editors at The Detroit News and The Detroit Free Press have joined forces in their emptied newsrooms to publish a combined newspaper. But six striking unions, with about 2,500 members who include drivers, pressmen, photographers, reporters and copy editors, are counting on Detroit's deep labor tradition to keep readers and advertisers away.

Sounding hoarse but robust, President Boris N. Yeltsin appeared on television from his hospital room here tonight to prove that while he was sick, he was not as sick as the Kremlin had led people to believe by its insistence that he was fine. Mr. Yeltsin was flushed into public view by serious questions about the authenticity of the only photograph released of the President after he was hospitalized on July 11. The picture, distributed by the Itar-Tass news agency last Friday, showed Mr. Yeltsin in an Ellesse tennis shirt seated at a desk next to a table with four telephones. It appeared identical to footage of the Russian President, wearing an Ellesse tennis shirt at a desk next to four telephones, that was filmed when he was on vacation in southern Russia last April. Mr. Yeltsin's press secretary said it was taken at Central Clinical Hospital in Moscow on Friday.

The First Data Corporation said yesterday that the Federal Trade Commission had asked for more information about the company's proposed $6.7 billion acquisition of the First Financial Management Corporation. An F.T.C. request for more information generally signals close antitrust scrutiny. The companies said they had expected the so-called second request. Since the proposed merger was announced on June 13, antitrust lawyers have said they expected the F.T.C. to examine the impact on competition for credit-card processing and money wiring. First Data, based in Hackensack, N.J., is the world's largest processor of credit-card transactions for banks. First Financial, based in Atlanta, leads in providing credit-card processing for merchants.
