Cuba Rebels
Near U.S.
Navy Base
HAVANA (,tTh Fidel Custro's
rebel forces carried their guerrilla
warfare to within sight of the
U.S. Naval Base at Guantanamo
In eastern Cuba yesterday.
The rebels shot up Caimanera,
a sugar mill town of 6000 persons
on the west side of Guantanamo
Bay. There was no immediate re
port of casualties.
Caiinanera is near the northern
outskirts of the U.S. Naval Base
in southeast Oriente Province.
Cuban army headquarters in
Havana said earlier that rebel
forces had suffered heavy casual
ties in an attempt to drive to
Guantanamo
Insurgent fighters also attacked
Jamaica, a town of 4000 about,
six miles north of Guantanamo,
and exchanged fire with police
and troops.
Street shootings were reported
in Guantanamo before dawn,
Some railway, bus and sugar cane
workers have been on strike there,
The shooting apparently took
place between strikers and police
or troops. This could not be con
firmed, however, since telephone
lines linking Guantanamo and Ha
vana were out. Guantanamo, a
city of 130,000, is about 50 miles
east of Santiago, the provincial
capital.
Cuban army planes swooped
down on the mountains of Oriente
Province with bomb and machine
gun attacks in an effort to flush
rebels from their hideouts. There
was no report on whether the at
tacks were effective.
Haitian Diplomat
Shoots Colleague
WASHINGTON (/1") Bullets

tl,e Haitian Embassy killed a fel
low diplomat Monday.

admitted the shooting.
An Embassy statement said or-.
deis for Toussaint's recall reached
the Embassy Monday morning.
Police said they were told Tous
saint blamed Devieux, who was
minister counsellor, for the recall.
Prompt Answer Given
Khrushchev by Pianist
MOSCOW (/P) Prime Minis
ter Nikita Khrushchev got a
prompt answer when he asked
6-foot-4 Van Cliburn "Why are
you so tall?" "Because I am from
Texas," Chburn replied.
The Texan, who received a
gold medal and 25,000 rubles for
winning the Soviet Union's inter
national Tschaikovsky piano con
test, met Khrushchev at a Krem
lin reception.

Sputnik Model
BRUSSELS, Belgium (?')—
The Soviet Union has fired
the first shot in the big World
Fair propaganda battle by un
veiling a life-sized Sputnik.
They gave Belgian Prime Min
ister Achille Van Acker and Cab
inet ministers a preview yester
day of their sprawling exhibit,
which threatens to swamp the
American show by its size and
the amount of rubles lavished on
it.
The fair-first to be held in 19
year s— is scheduled to open
Thursday and continue through
Oct. 19.
The Soviet and American pavil
ions stand almost side by side

Glass, Bell, Westinghouse and many others will have their dis-

American industries.- Here is first-hand knowledge of present-
day industrial activity . . . Open to everyone.

THE DAILY COLLEGIAN. STATE COLLEGE PENNSYLVANIA
Shown at Fair
a narrow road, but miles of ideol
ogy, separating them.
With their huge and costly ex
hibit, the Soviets are seeking to
extol the virtues of Communism,
while the United States hopes to
show the world the advantages of
democracy and free enterprise.
The propaganda bailie will be
seen by an estimated 35 million
visitors.
Highlight of the Soviet show is
the Sputnik. Standing about nine
feet tall, it looks like a glass-en
closed nose of a giant rocket.
Starting from a sharp metal tip,
or point, it slants backward like
a spear, broadening to a base
about four feet in diameter. Its
principal parts appear to be two
shining metal spheres—supported
by metal tubes.
