Three Soviet ships enter Cuban waters
The Pentagon says three Soviet ships a submarine tender a cruiser and a merchant vessel have entered Cuban waters. It remains unclear if any vessel docked at a Cuban port amid prior speculation of a base at Cienfuegos. The Nixon administration had denied plans for a base and said servicing subs in international waters is acceptable if the tender does not operate from a Cuban port.

Walk in the Spring Rain flops despite star power at Harte Theatre
Ingrid Bergman and Anthony Quinn fail to lift A Walk in the Spring Rain with critics and audiences. The piece underwhelms despite the duo’s fame, while The Lickerish Quartet earns minimal appeal. Robert Redford stars in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, boosting Redford and Pollard’s Little Fauss and Big Halsy, with showings at Harte and Manchester cinemas. Time clocks list Harte 8 p.m. and Manchester 7/9/7:30/9:15.
