During a single day in the 1680's William Penn, famous for giving us Pennsylvania, attended two public executions in London: a beheading at the Tower and a nasty business with rope and knives at Tyburn two miles away. Macaulay, writing ''The History of England,'' concluded from this and Penn's other eyewitness accounts of capital punishments that pacific Quakerism could not blunt his taste for the theater of scaffold and headsman's ax. Stomaching a double feature would surely take an aficionado, but - face it - all of us like a bit of diversion now and then. England today provides very little. It is, as somebody once said of Richmond, Va., ''a hotbed of social rest.''

The latest proposals on curbing medium-range nuclear-armed missiles and planes that President Reagan outlined to the General Assembly today seem to meet some previous Soviet objections. But the speech left unresolved a fundamental difference in perception between East and West over the nuclear balance in Europe that continues to make the achieving of an accord very elusive. Basically, all the allied proposals are aimed at overcoming what the Western nations regard as a significant Soviet advantage in nuclear forces in Europe. The Soviet Union, on the other hand, denies that its forces are superior and contends that the allied proposals, if accepted, would tip the nuclear balance in the allied favor.

The quiet decision earlier this month not to appeal an immigration judge's ruling that granted asylum to Dennis Brutus put a surprisingly muted ending to a long and heated battle over Mr. Brutus, a South African poet and political activist. But while Mr. Brutus's immigration status is resolved, the significance of his case remains uncertain, in part because its original impetus has never been clear. Mr. Brutus, who in years past led efforts to ban South Africa from the Olympic Games and more recently claims part credit for persuading American investors to remove $2 billion in assets from South African business, says he became a pawn in efforts by the Reagan Administration to mend fences with South Africa. For their part, Government officials insist that politics never entered the case. The principal actors, they say, were not the President or Secretary of State or their subordinates, but conscientious bureaucrats, oblivious to the larger political ramifications.

CHALLENGER WHO WOULDN'T GIVE UP
Date: 27 September 1983
On a spring morning in 1970 at Derecktor's Yard in Mamaroneck, N. Y., Alan Bond of Australia and the crew from his yacht Apollo spotted an unusual yacht and climbed aboard to inspect her. She was the newly- launched 12-Meter Valiant, in which all the winches were below deck. A Valiant crew member arrived at the dock moments later and became enraged when he saw foreign sailors, uninvited, aboard the secret 12-Meter, which had been built for the America's Cup defense that summer. He shouted to the Australians to get off. As Ben Lexcen, Apollo's designer and a member of the crew, recalled, Bond had never seen a 12-Meter before and was fascinated. But Bond, too, became furious. ''We walked out of there,'' said Lexcen, ''and Bondy turned to me and said: 'I want you to design me a boat like that. I am going to win that cup.' ''

International Concessions on missile deployment were offered the Soviet Union by President Reagan, while he urged Moscow ''to reduce the tensions it has heaped on the world in the past few weeks.'' Speaking in the opening debate of the United Nations General Assembly, Mr. Reagan said ''the door to an agreement is open.'' In the principal concession, the United States, while continuing to insist on an equal number of nuclear warheads on American and Soviet medium-range missiles, would agree not to deploy all of its permitted missile warheads in Europe. (Page A1, Column 6.) Lebanon's Prime Minister offered his resignation to help pave the way for the formation of a Government made up of representatives from leading political and religious factions. Prime Minister Shafik al-Wazzan's offer to step down, made soon after a cease-fire agreement was announced, was not immediately accepted by President Amin Gemayel, who asked him and his Cabinet to stay on with full powers until proposed national reconciliation talks begin and ''our new course becomes clear.''

LEGAL AID AGENCY DRAWING PROTEST

Thirty- seven directors of legal aid programs financed through the Federal Legal Services Corporation said today that they were ''outraged'' at efforts by the agency's new management, made up of Reagan Administration supporters, to bar its nine regional offices from talking to the press or elected officials. In a letter to Donald P. Bogard, president of the corporation, a majority of the project directors from the Middle Atlantic region said the restrictions on the agency's regional personnel were ''a deprivation of personal liberty and freedom of association.'' This criticism was prompted by an order from the agency that ''regional offices shall disenfranchise themselves of any contact with elected officials or members of the press/media.''

GERMANS AGHAST AS G.I.'S SIMULATE MASS BURIALS
Date: 28 September 1983

For more than a year the Reagan Administration's international public relations specialists have been trying to persuade West Germans that Washington considers a limited nuclear war unthinkable. This carefully nurtured effort to undo the damaging impact of the Administration's early, casual talk about limiting a nuclear war to Europe took a jolt Friday in the pages of Stars and Stripes, a daily newspaper that calls itself an ''authorized unofficial publication of the U.S. armed forces.'' The story on page 9 by Bob Wood, a staff reporter, started innocently enough, ''There were no flowers, few mourners and little ceremony Tuesday as members of Hanau's 26th Supply and Services Co. trained for the task of burying American service members.'' The headline that ran across the top of the page was more arresting: ''Unit Practices Mass Burial Procedures.'' Two photographs showed American soldiers and the bulldozed grave containing ''the body of a simulated casualty.''
