IN addition TO killing the

NEEDLE some Dame Rumor entered
Mexico without a passport I'D
started the tale that Governor
Castellanos OF Tamaulipas had re-
signed. and that a Matam0ros man

serve the balance or the unexpired
term.
This was emphatically denied In
official circles after a telephone
call to Victoria, capital Of the
state.
RumorS are not unusual. IN fact.
they're common. But two in n
