Fidel Castro visits Chile amid grand reception and protests
Fidel Castro arrived in Santiago from Havana for his first overseas trip in seven years. More than 10,000 police guarded the capital as crowds waved red banners and saluted him, while youth groups chanted anti‑US slogans and a small clash over ink occurred near the Cuban ambassador’s residence. Castro said the trip challenges imperialism and noted the U.S. embargo was broken by Allende’s presidency.

Piranha conviction marks first under Florida import ban
Harold Tarrant, 52, was sentenced to 60 days in jail in Miami after being found with 33 piranhas. The case tests Florida’s new law criminalizing import or ownership of piranhas, feared to threaten waters if dumped. Judge Frederick Barad placed him on six months probation as the law’s first conviction. Florida officials worry owners may release the fish into streams. Mamie Eisenhower visited Indio California for memorial center dedication ceremonies with lodging in Indian Wells.
