The suspects appeared briefly in court Tuesday morning before Judge John S. Fury who postponed the hearing until Friday a t the request o f attorneys for bo th sides because o f the grand jury investigation. The jury is expected to take no longer than a day or two to decide whether to hand up indictm ents.

Kennedy’s accused assassin, Sirhan B. Sirhan, also is an Arab. An official said a “ very large quantity” o f correspondence from overseas was found in the Namer’s poor, three room apartm ent. Many were in Arabic and were being translated in the hope o f gaining clues to the family’s activities. Friends o f the elder Namer said lie never showed an interest in politics. Golden said one o f the mysteries was where the Namers, who worked as shipping clerks in a clothing factory, got the am ount o f money they reportedly offered the mystery linform ant. He hinted that the plot could have been hatched outside the country.
