For Release A-RL MANILA TIMES (RIGHT): KODACHROME BY TED SPIEGEL. RAPHO GUILLUMETTE @ N.G.S. Crater-pocked time bomb, Taal Volcanc rises from Lake Taal, 40 miles south of Manila. Dor- mant for half a century, the volcanic island sud- denly erupted in September, 1965, blasting out the inlet at upper right and spewing ash and pumice from the new crater in the inlet. Steam shot a thou- sand feet aloft, spreading debris so thick that it buried scores of the cataclysm's 200 victims and their flourishing stands of coconut and banana. Two days later the volcano still belched (inset). Nearly 3,000 people lived on the five-mile-long by three-mile-wide island before the eruption; many have since returned to their homes. Water- filled crater at center of the large picture formed in a 1911 eruption that claimed 1,335 lives. CPYRGHT 306
