A PENTAGON spokesman confirmed Mr. Wilkins’ observation as well as the fact that there were only 29 Negroes among the 2,529 cadets at West Point and 14 out of 2,512 airmen at the Air Force Academy. In his announcement, Mr. McNamara said all young men of high scholastic achievement, leadership potential, good character and good physical condition are being urged to seek admission to the service academies.

Soviet Union pledge support

to Africa

MOSCOW — The Soviet Union pledg^? Christmas Eve to co-operate with African countries “in providing the utmost assistance to the people” of

Rhodesia.

The pledge was made in a joint Soviet-Zn.mbian communique issued after the departure earlierf last week of a delegation from Zambian which sought aid against neighboring

Rhodesia.

The Kremlin promised "wellwishing and effective support for Zambia in efforts to strengthen independence and participate in the liberation movement in South Africa.” THE COMMUNIQUE did not spell out either the “assistance” to be provided the people of Rhodesia of the support for Zambia. On Rhodesia it said only: ^ “The Soviet government will not recognize the racialist regime which has usurped power in Southern Rhodesia and will cooperate with Zambia and other African countries in providing the utmost assistance to the Zimbabwe people in its just struggle for freedom and genuine national independence.” Zimbabwe is the African name for Rohdesia, which was unilaterally declared independent from Britain by its white minority government. “BOTH SIDES resolutely .condemned the criminal action of racialist Ian Smith,” the short commuique said. There was no mention of Soviet military aid for Zambia. A news report -jiad said the Zambians would ask for Russian troops to protect the Kariba Dam from the Rhodesians. It straddles the border between the two countries. The head of the Zambian delegation, Finance Minister Arthur Wina, had said earlier the communique would cover all important blatters discussed during the three-day visit. have fhree children and reside at 6525 Oakview Drive, South.
