Navy Immunization Drive Sees Meningitis Cases At Training Center
At San Diego Naval Training Center a second meningitis immunization program begins within a week after two recruits were sent to Naval Hospital with the disease. Identified patients are Stuart Besonen of Mason Michigan and Stephen Varney of San Antonio Texas both listed in serious condition. The outbreak marks the station's fourth in two months with a prior fatality among 13 cases. Sufadiazine tablets were begun last week as a preventative measure. Meanwhile in New York a lawyer who helped free 21 Americans from Cuban jails said he proposed that four Cubans be patriated in exchange for clemency. He noted Fidel Castro indicated possible consideration if the United States and New York State could reciprocate.

Nixon Eyes California Primary Choice for GOP Nominee
Former Vice President Richard Nixon told reporters in Los Angeles that California's 1964 primary could decide the Republican nominee for president. He said he does not seek office, warned against party ruin, praised Barry Goldwater as a conscientious conservative, and suggested a ticket pairing a moderate with a conservative might unite the GOP. He plans a June trip to Europe with no public appearances in between.

Deadliest Polaris submarine Lafayette commissioned in Groton
The Lafayette, first of a new class, was commissioned by Vice Admiral Griffin with Jacqueline Kennedy christening. It mounts 16 nuclear missiles, range up to 2500 miles, and new subs are ordered at one per month. A Thresher inquiry court attended, scientists aboard Atlantis aimed to photograph the sub, and Trieste would assist if located. Six objects were identified in a 10 square mile area as sonar teams pressed the search. The Navy also deployed a carrier to assist. George C. McGhee's nomination as ambassador to West Germany was approved by the Senate committee.
