Girl Slightly Hurl As Aufo Hits Tree Susan Maire Frank, 18, route 5, Decatur, suffered a slight bump pn the head and a small cut to the knee in a one-car accident Friday at 4 p.m. on the Piqua road., She was traveling west when her car went out of control on a patch of ice, left the road, and slammed into a tree at the H. C. Hirschy residence. Deputy sheriff Warren Kneuss, who investigated, estimated the 1959 model car as receiving a total of S7OO damage. The cars were involved in a mishap on U.S. 27 Friday afternoon, with no injuries resulting. A car driven by Horst Henry Kuckein, 54, Fort Wayne, was struck in the rear by another Fort Wayne driver, William E. Hicks, 24 years of age. Both were northbound on 27, and as Kuckein slowed for an unloading school bus Hicks was unable to stop in time and slammed into the rear of the Kuckein car. Damages were estimated at S3OO to the Hicks car and $25 to the Kuckein auto by sheriff Roger Singleton, who investigated. Cuba Is Training Many For Sabotage WASHINGTON (UPI) —Cuban Premier Fidel Castro already has trained more than 1,500 Latin Americans in sabotage and guerrilla warfare, and CIA Director John McCone expects the number to increase. Every Latin American country but Uruguay has been represented in the schools of subversion during the last year, he told the House foreign affairs subcommittee. More were brought in this year to receive indoctrination and training in Communist tactics of revolt, he said. The Central Intelligence Agency head said the greatest number of graduates, some 200, came from Venezuela. But he said Venezuelan President Romulo Betancourt appears able to control subversive forces and become “the first freely elected Venezuelan president in history to , complete Ms term.” A censored version of McCone’s testimony before the committee last week was released Friday by Rep. Armistead Selden, D-Ala., committee chairman. McCone testified that funds and a small amount of Communist bloc weapons are sent from Cuba to other countries. The Cuban subversive effort, he said, “is far more sophisticated, more covert and more deadly” than in the early days of Premier Castro. “to its professional tradecraft, | it shows guidance and training j by experienced Communist advis-1 ers from the Soviet bloc, including veteran Spanish Communists,” he said. As for arms shipments, McCone said that generally the Cubans follow the Cominunist textbook and tell guerrilla war fare students and their leaders to get weapons at home. But he said more shipments would speed revolts.

Resume Negotiations In New York Strike NEW YORK (UPI) — Striking printers and publishers of eight New York City newspapers meet i again today in another round of joint negotiations aimed at settling their 85-day-old dispute. The talks were scheduled to begin at 10:30 a.m. EST at the Hotel Commodore. A mood of harmony reportedly prevailed in Friday’s face-to-face talks which lasted from noon to midnight with time out for meals. But there was no word on whether the two sides moved any closer to agreement. The New York Post, planning to resume publication Monday after breaking away from the Publishers Association of New York City, faced a possible advertiser’s boycott. One of the city’s largest advertisers the huge Macy’s department store already has announced it would not buy space in the Post at this time. “Macy’s takes no position with respect to the merits of the current labor dispute” the Macy’s statement declared. “We do feel however that to support one newspaper with out advertising when the others are not available might put undue pressure on them to settle regardless of merit We prefer not to do this.” Mayor Robert F. Wagner who said negotiations are in the “lastditch” stage described Friday’s talks as “harmonious.” The mayor said the publishers and printers had asked him not to offer his own settlement formula while negotiations were still under way. Wagner said last week he would propose a third-party solution as suggested by Presi-

dent Kennedy but only when he. is convinced further talks would | be fruitless. The Post was one of five dailies that suspended operations in the city when printers went on strike against four others—the Times News World-Telegram St Sun and Journal-American.

I Rolvaag Clings To Lead In Minnesota ST. PAUL, Minn. (UPI) —Democrat Karl Rolvaag, who lost the Minnesota governorship in the November election count, clung to a 43-vote recount lead today over now-Govemor Elmer L. Andersen. Die recount trial was recessed for the weeekend. A three-judge recount panel appointed by the state Supreme Court is holding trial on 24 categories of 1,500 challenged ballots plus some other issues stemming from the Nov. 6 election. The state canvassing board declared Republican Andersen the victor by 142 votes after the election but Rolvaag demanded a recount. Rolvaag led in the recounting by 133 votes before the trial began Monday. His lead dropped to four, then crept up. Attorneys Friday completed testimony on the seventh and 10th categories of disputed ballots involving a 1,354 challenged votes. Judgmnets on the seventh and 10th categories were expected from the panel early next week. Judges have ruled on eight of the 10 ballot groups. GOP Attorney J. Neil Morton said it was “perverse and scandalous that the election of a governor should be dominated by the kinds of marks we are now considering.” But he said “We are handling this case on the basis of the law and the manner in which the Supreme Court lias interpreted it.” The state Supreme Court ruled recently in a Dakota County election dispute that ballots bearing mixed markings such as X’s and checks are invalid.
