TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 14. 1961 Urges Impartial Probe Congo Premier's Death Dag into UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (W)—Dag Hammarskjold yesterday urged a full and impartial investigation into the killing of former Congo Premier Patrice Lumumba. He got ' quick support from the United States, but an angry no-confidence blast from the Soviet Union. The secretary-general made the proposal before a grim meeting of the U.N. Security Council, whose delegates heard the news of Lumumba's death only a short time before Rumors Report Forces Landed On Cuban Shores HAVANA (WP)— Unofficial reports circulated in Havana yesterday that a "substantial" landing of anti-Castro forces and some fighting took place over the weekend in Oriente Province. They followed similar reports that there were heavy casualties in a "fierce" weekend battle between insurgents in the Escambray Mountains and en circling militia. The government was mum on all these reports. Various informants in Havana Insisted reports of the substantial landings near Baracoa on the northeastern tip of Cuba were "definitely more than a rumor." Some even went so far as to say the invaders numbered up to 3,- 000 well-equipped men. Baracoa is not far from the coastal area where a small con tingent of anti-Castro forces was captured or liquidated by Castro troops last October. An thony Zarba of Boston, Mass., and seven Cubans captured in this encounter subsequently were executed near Santiago after military trials. One of the goals of opposition forces has been to mount a di version in Oriente to relieve the tremendous pressure on the reb els in the Escambrays. Oriente, where Prime Minister Fidel Cas tro's own revoltion began it-, drive to power, is much more suitable to guerrilla warfare than Escambray. In that area, farther to the West, travelers said there were heavy casualties on both sides in combat which raged between the south coast town of Trinidad and Topes de Collantes Tuberculosis Sanitarium 10 miles inland, both held by government forces. 5 O'Ciock Theater Resumes Activity The 5 O'Clock Theater will re sume weekly play presentations today with "A Day in the For est," by Rosalie Cota.

Stevenson, the chief U.S. delegate, welcomed a sug gestion from Hammarskjold that the UN investigation already ordered into Lumumba's reported escape be continued. But Soviet Deputy Foreign Min ister Valerian A. 'Lorin angrily denounced Hammarskjold's pro posal for an investigation as having a hypocritical ring, "We have not the slightest confidence in the secretary general or his staff after all that has been committed in the Congo and Katanga," he de clared. Speaking after Stevenson, the Soviet delegate called the death of Lumumba a shameful crime for which the colonialists and their allies must take full re sponsibility. He charged that Lumumba had been murdered "under the blue flag of the United Nations." Hammarskjold told the council that Brig. Gen. Mengasha Hyassu, UN chief of staff in the Congo, had been instructed to remain in Katanga until he was received by authorities, or gets new instruc tions based on action 'in the council.

PENNSYLVANIA JFK Introduces Health Proposal WASHINGTON (AP) . A bill to provide Social Security health insurance for the aged, one •of President Kennedy's most contro versial proposals, was introduced yesterday. In the House-, the measure was referred to the Ways and Means Committee, where a similar bill died last year. Some Kennedy advisers, how- ever, are predicting that commit tee opposition will soften if the administration takes its time, let ting other elements of Kennedy's bulky economic package come to vote first. The bill came to Congress with a letter in which Kennedy said, "1 believe the need for such in surance is urgent." It was introduced in the house by Rep. Cecil R. King of Califor .nia, the second-ranking Democrat on the Ways and Means Commit tee. Chairman Wilbur D. Mills, (D-Ark.), who under House pro cedures would have first oppor tunity to sponsor the bill, has made no public comment on the Kennedy proposal. Mills opposed last year's counterpart. The Kennedy administration's plan would begin providing hos pital benefits Oct. 1, 1962, and nursing home services the follow ing year. To Consider Scientists Await information From Soviet Space Probe MOSCOW (P)--A Soviet space station bound for Venus may pierce that planet's perpetual cloud cover and reveal some of her secrets, scientists said yesterday. One aim of the spectacular space probe is to shed light on whether there is life on that neighbor of earth. A rendezvous with Venus about 26 million miles out in space sometime between May 15 and 31 was predicted by Porf. Ani Stern feld, a Soviet space scientist. The U.S. Naval Observatory, however, said Venus would be 42.9 million miles away on May 20. The big question, Sternfeld said, is whether the space station's radio can send back over the vast; reaches of space the data. "It is this that the experiment is designed to show," he said in an interview with the Soviets news agency Tass. The 14]8-pound "automatic interplanetary station" was I launched by rocket from a heavy Sputnik put into orbit Sunday. the Russians said. They called it a great triumph of So viet engineering. Oleg Melnikov, physicist at Len- 1 ingrad Observatory, said it is likely the station will pass' through the thick clouds that! blanket Venus and obtain first , hand evidence of the planet's ; atmosphere. This might show whether Vej nus, often called the earth's twin,l could sustain life. • I The University sponsors ten t varsity athletic teams.

The Smiths were among the 620 passengers aboard the ship when it was hijacked by Portuguese rebels. Mrs. Smith said of their voy age, "It's been an experience. I don't think I'd want to do it again." Her husand said, "None of us thought it was a life or death thing. Only during the demonstra tions were we worried about danger. Boredom was the chief discomfort." He added, "It really wasn't as bad• as some of these accounts make it out to be. The mental tension was the worst." Little Deborah has a somewhat different outlook on the experi ence.
