Cuban refugees seized on Aguilla Cay recounts and flight
19 Cubans were captured by Cuban air and naval forces on Aguilla Cay and returned to Cuba. A number fled, including four women and two children. U.S. jets and a Coast Guard seaplane observed from the air as gunboats and helicopters carried out the operation on British territory. Refugees were brought to Key West and then Miami. Rep. Rogers urged action by U.S. and British forces to prevent repeats. All 29 refugees are Presbyterians.

Maine Senator opposes Yard probe at Portsmouth Navy yard
Sen. Ed Muskie of Maine urged frank talks instead of a Senate Government Operations investigation into alleged civilian inefficiency at Portsmouth Naval Shipyard. He said a probe by Sen. McClellan would be slow and possibly harmful, recommending constructive discussions to keep the yard productive. He would forward the unions’ request if they insist, but questioned the investigation as the best path. The unions also met Rep. Bates who backs uncovering the true facts at the yard.
