Britain Denies
Yielding in CeyIon

LONDON, July 2 CP.-Premiel
Solomon Bandaranike said today
that Britain had agreed to give
up her important Indian Ocean
bases in Ceylon but his claim
drew a swift denial from the
Eden government.
The leader of the Asian domin-
ion told reporters that Britain
has agreed to give up her naval
base at Trincomalee and her all
base at Katunayake.
Within hours British Prime
Minister Eden himself authorized
the Defense Ministry to issue
this denial:
"A preliminary exchange of
views has taken place but no
agreement has yet been reached
Mr.. Bandaranaike has been
discussing the future of the bases
personally with Sir Anthony. his
oxford University classmate,
during sessions here of the Brit
ish Commonwealth prime min
listers.
Mr.. Bandaranaike was a sur
price winner in Ceylon's elections
last April He pledged in his
campaign to strip Britain Of
control of the bases and follow
a policy of noninvolvement in the
struggle between Eastern and
Western power blocks.

PLAYING POSSUM

TEMPLE, Okla. = up - Mrs. R.
c. Nelson caught a mother pos
sum and two young in her hen
house, grabbed a club and beat
them. She took the bodies to the
city dump but as she was leaving
noticed a sign saying there was a
$50 fine for dumping dead animals.
She went back to pick up the an
imals but she didn't have to worry.
AS she neared the spot she saw
the mama possum and two little
ones walking away, apparently un-
hurt.
