Juarbe asserted that Cuba possessed weapons that are "anticolonial, anti-imperialistic, and defensive," and their target was "the death of U. S.

These fierce blond rovers from the Continent arrived in Britain in considerable numbers after Roman rule ended. The Germanic Saxons drove many of the original Britons, Celtic-speaking people, into Cornwall, Wales, and the Highlands of Scotland.

Much of the floor of the Saxon hall was found in remarkably good condition. The oak planks and poles varied in color from light brown to black. The diggers uncovered no remains of roofing material.

Singhiser, president of Fontaine Ferry Park. Singhiser was at Falls City Flying Service at Standiford Field waiting for the Tiptons to arrive when he got news of the crash. He immediately drove to the crash scene, about three tenths of a mile from High Grove near the Spencer-Nelson County line.

'Very Good Pilot Singhiser said later he had known the Tiptons about 10 years. He said he had often gone on trips with Tipton in the plane that crashed, and he called Tipton a "very good pilot." The F.A.A. said Tipton was an "instrument-rated pilot" and said his plane carried the equipment needed for an instrument landing.

Missile Sites Listed Old mine shafts, natural caves, and man-made silos and hangars housed MIG's and surface-to-air missiles, Fernandez Rocha said.

"The missiles are the same as the ones which the under ground says shot down an American U-2 (airplane) flying over a Soviet base in Santa r-ithai Vor. Clara, (western Cuba), nandez Rocha said. He said underground reports outlined the "subterranean installations" by provinces as follows: Havana Two military airports Ciidad Libertad and San Antonio Base south of Havana, the capital, had underground accommodations housing MIG's and some bombers. Matanzas: Pepe Barrientos Airport on the north coast and an airport in the town of Colon had MIG's and some missiles in underground facilities. Santa Clara: La Maleza Airport in Santa Clara had facilities for 100 airplanes in six giant caverns.

You'll get a lot of sympathy in Piggott. Disgruntled motorists and businessmen in this northeast-Arkansas town of 2,776 have won their battle against the meters. They voted 469 to 372 Tuesday to repeal the parking-meter ordinance. The 281 meters probably will be taken out in January.

A previous appeal was sue cessiui in Dnnging the case to trail for the second time After testimony was completed in the first trial in 1960, the judge ruled there was insuf ficient evidence to allow the case to go to the jury.

State police identified the victims as Marvin L. Tipton, a Maryville businessman who was piloting the plane, and his wife, Mrs.

Helen Tipton. They were the only persons in the four-seat, single-engine plane, which crashed in a wooded area nine miles north of Bardstown about noon. Federal Aviation Agency of ficials said Tipton had contacted Louisville's Standiford Field shortly after 11 a.m., saying he was flying at 15,000 feet and requesting instruc tions for an approach. Wing Over Wing The airport tower assigned Tipton to a "holding area" southeast of Louisville and told him to descend to 12.000 feet, and then lost radio contact with him, the F.A.A. reported, Mrs.

James Nethery, who lives near High Grove, said she saw the plane coming down in the fog "wing over wing." She said the craft seemed to have exploded, "but I wouldn't swear to it." Her husband and son later led police to the wreckage, which was scattered over a farm across the road from the kHi UUU1C3 Nethery house. The were found in the wreckage.

9. A Federal Court jury ruled Friday cigarette smoking was "the cause or one of the causes" of a Pittsburgh carpenter's lung cancer but that the manufacturer of the cigarettes cannot be held responsible. The jury of eight women and four men decided the controversial issue after 12 hours' deliberation spread over two days. The panel said Otto Pritch-ard, 64, assumed "the risk of injury by his smoking of Chesterfield cigarettes." Liggett Myers tobacco producer of Chesterfields, was not negligent, the jury ruled. It said the firm did not "make any express warranties upon which the plaintiff relied and by which he was induced to purchase" the cigarettes.

Therefore, the verdict said, Liggett Myers is not liable for any damages. Pritchard contended he contracted lung cancer from smoking Chesterfields regularly from the 1920's until 1953, when his right lung was removed. He sought $213,000 in damages. "If it can be descended into the level of the schools, it will save more lives than were expended in World War World War II and the Korean War." Attorney William Eckert, counsel for Liggett 'Myers, said he was "deeply gratified by the- verdict." He said the fact that the jury linked smoking to lung cancer "was contrary to our position," but added, "In view of the other answers, we don't have to worry about the answer to No. 1." Eckert referred to the eight questions judge John Miller of.
