Eleanor Smeal won an upset victory over Judy Goldsmith as president of the National Organization for Women today, and the first thing she did when she met the press was to put her arms around her husband and two children. ''Feminists aren't supposed to do this sort of thing,'' she said, smiling, ''but why not?''

TERRORISM is unlikely to go away; neither is the argument over how it is reported. Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher said last week that news organizations should be urged to restrain their coverage of terrorism. Then Attorney General Edwin Meese 3d took her proposal a step further. He said the White House might ask news organizations to adopt a voluntary code of restraint. This is a terrible idea.

Federal prosecutors said today that two Navy men accused of spying for the Soviet Union could get a fair trial despite extensive news coverage. Publicity about the defendants, John A. Walker Jr. and his son, Michael, ''has been neither inflammatory nor unduly prejudicial,'' prosecutors said in response to a defense motion seeking to dismiss the espionage charges. The arguments were made in court papers filed in Federal District Court in Baltimore, where the two men are being prosecuted.

What is the difference between 39 and 7? Fickle media and an indifferent public. With no more Shiites clamoring for television interviews and President Reagan engaged in another kind of struggle, the seven Americans kidnapped and imprisoned in Lebanon for weeks and months have disappeared again from the nation's consciousness.

The South African police, acting under a newly imposed state of emergency, were reported to have detained scores more people in predawn raids today. Civil rights monitoring groups said about 200 people were seized in the last 24 hours and put the number arrested since the emergency declaration took effect midnight Saturday at more than 300. Priests, lawyers, teachers and political activists were said to be among those detained last night and today. They joined 113 people seized Sunday by the police, who now have near-absolute powers in 36 cities and towns covered by the emergency decree issued by President P. W. Botha. The police made no immediate comment on the reports.

The Administration knows how to deal with its friends and with its enemies. But it's prone to confusion with the puzzling category of those who are neither, like China. Despite the need to toast this week's visit of China's President, Li Xiannian, the long-proposed nuclear pact with China should not be rushed to consummation.

The South African police, acting with near-absolute powers under a state of emergency, said today that they had detained 113 people since midnight, when the emergency came into force. Reflecting newly imposed limits on the access of reporters to information about such actions, a police spokesman declined to identify those detained or say where they had been seized.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation arrested a seventh suspect late Sunday night in a purported scheme to smuggle spare parts for the Navy's F-14 jet fighter to Iran. The widening case, which is still under investigation, represents the first time a hostile country has penetrated the Pentagon's supply system, according to Federal officials. The seventh suspect, Antonio G. Rodriguez, arrested in Seattle, is an aviation storekeeper on the helicopter landing ship Belleau Wood, based near Seattle. Two other Navy employees, a civilian warehouse worker and an aviation storekeeper on the aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk, were arrested last week in the case. In addition, three civilians and an Iranian based in London have been arrested in connection with the case.

The Joint Chiefs of Staff have recommended against United States ratification of internationally agreed revisions of the 1949 Geneva Conventions on treatment of combatants and war victims, according to Administration officials. The intent of the revisions is to enhance humane treatment of combatants and civilians during war. But the main concern of the Joint Chiefs is that the revisions, or protocols, as they are known, would have the effect of legitimizing national liberation movements and terrorists, granting them combatant and prisoner-of-war status.
