39 Are Dead In Air Disaster In Brazil RIO DE JANEIRO, (UPD - Firemen combing the charred wreckage of suburban homes here said today at least 39 persons were killed and a dozen others injured in Tuesday’s double air crash. A Brazilian domestic airliner which locked wings with an air force jet trainer over Rio crashed in suburban Ramos, setting four homes on fire. All of the 32 persons aboard the airliner and at least 7 residents of the crash area were killed, and 8 were injured. Air cadet Eduardo Silva Perez, pilot of the trainer, parachuted to | safety. He was hospitalized for treatment of burns received in the collision. Silva’s jet crashed some distance from the wreckage of the airliner, injuring two persons in the home it hit A wing of the airliner, torn off in the collision, fell in the courtyard of a Roman Catholic high school. None of the 20 nuns and five postulants whose rooms open off the court was injured. Silva denied reports that he was “buzzing” his mother’s home at the time of the crash. “I am not to blame,” he told reporters. "I was flying an aerobatics training mission in the area .assigned to me.” Airport spokesmen said the weather at the time of the collision was clear and calm. There was no evident explanation for the failure of the airline pilot to see the jet.
End First Round In Press, Court Battle DETROIT (UPD — The first round in the battle between four federal court judges and Detroit's three daily newspapers in the suppression of a civil suit was over today and both sides could claim at least partial victory. Judges Theodore Levin. Thomas I P. Thornton, Clifford O’Sullivan and Ralph M. Freeman were win- > ners because the suit in question' is still suppressed. j And the papers were winners because they printed details of the suit obtained from independent sources without being cited for contempt of court. The judges imposed the press blackout one week ago today, ort" k^bW^feitfjits'^Ttos'SeW;ThiSWf--' ’ chitectiiral and engineering firm, and Victor E. Vallet, retired president of the company. An audit has uncovered a shortage of more than SBOO,OOO in company funds prior to the retirement of Vallet and he is being asked for an accounting. Suppression of the suit and simultaneous issuance of an order by the judges citing their “inherent right” to suppress details of any civil suit brought immediate protests from the afternoon News and Times and the morning Free Press.

U.S. Reporter Is Convicted In Cuba
HAVANA iUPD—A Cuban court martial sentenced Miami Herald reporter James Buchanan Tuesday night to 14 years’ imprisonment at hard labor for concealing information about an American prison-breaker, but suspended sentence on condition that he get out of the country within 24 hours. The Miami newsman spent the night in a cell at army intelligence headquarters here, apparently because his trial ended too late for formalities accompanying his release to be completed Tuesday night. It appeared likely that he would be released about midmorning, and that his 24-hour period of grace would start at the time. Buchanan and John McMullan, assistant managing editor of the Herald who came here after his arrest, plan to leave for Miami later today. The American newsman was arrested after he had interviewed Austin Young, a Miami soldier of fortune who broke out of Pinar del Rio prison two weeks ago and was at large for 36 hours. Oscar Fernandes Jordan, prosecutor at the Buchanan trial in the western provincial capital of Pinar del Rio, said the defendant’s own testimony proved that he came to cuba “intending to aid a criminal.” Fernandes asked for a suspended sentence of 20 years, twothirds of the 30 years Young has been sentenced to serve. The court handed down the lesser sentence in a matter of minutes. The sentence was read in Spanish. Buchanan, although his knowledge of the language is spotty, understood that the Cubans did not intend to hold him“I heaved a sigh of relief,” he said later. “Thank goodness I didn’t understand enough Spanish to know that I had first been sentenced to 14 years hard labor on the Isle of Pines. . . “I particularly want to thank mv lawyers. Orlando de la Portilla and Mario Lazo, and Hugh Kessler of the U.S. embassy. I also want to thank all those newspapers and new’smen in the United States and Cuba who jumped in on my side in the fight. They helped my morale tremendously.’’ Buchanan was accused of “antistate crimes” and “concealing information” about Young s whereabouts. He interviewed the American fugitive in the hotel room where bpth Young and Buchanan, were arrtested a few hours later.
