The Cuban National observatory
previously had urged civilians to
evacuate Batabano because of the
danger of a tidal wave such as en-
gulfed Santa Cruz Della Sur in 1882
and killed more than 200 persons.
The Isle of Pines, off the south
west coast of Cuba, also was iso-
lated. A National observatory bull
