Lady Diplomat to
be Costa Ricu's
Envoy TO the 0As

WASHINGTON -(UPD- One
Of the last male strongholds of
the diplomatic world - the Coun-
ell of the Organization of Ameri-
can States - is about to succumb
to feminine invasion.
Costa Rican Ambassador Manuel
Escalante confirmed that his coun-
try will appoint a woman, Angela
Acuna de Chac6n, as its ambassa-
dress to the council about Aug. l.
1t will mark the first time in the
history of the organization that a
woman has sat at the q nation
council table. However, if this de-
parture from unwritten tradition
is raising any qualms among the
all male members of the body,
United Press International was un
able to learn about it.
Generally, the ambassadors said
they welcomed the appointment
and Ambassador Escalante, said
none of his colleagues had expires
sed any reservations.
A woman in their midst may
raise some protocol problems for
the ambassadors but these prob.
lens already have been met and
conquered by the United Nations,
an early victim of the feminine
march.
Mrs. Chacon, a widow, is one of
the outstanding o e of the
Americas. The first woman to OBJ.
tain a law degree in Costa Rica
she has long been prominent in
inter-American affairs.
She has been a delegate to the
Inter American Commission of
Women and last year she was
named Woman of the Americas"
Mrs. Chac6n is currently living
in Ann Arbor, Mich, with her
daughter. Ambassador Escalante
said she plans to return to Costa
RIGA shortly and that her appoint
ment will be effective Aug. l.

Nixon during his recent Latin
American tour, played directly
into Communist hands.
The diplomats stressed that their
frank appraisal was motivated by
their sincere friendship, and that
their preoccupation was based on
concern about the future of the
Americas as well as their own
national interests.
Latin America is the only place
in the world where the United

VENEZUELA The largest geo
graphical division of Venezuela is
the Territory of Guayana. AL
though it occupies As per cent of
the country, it scarcely contains
two percent of its population. In
cluded in this zone is all the re-
gion south and east of the Orinoeo
River, as well as the zone of the
Casiquiare and Negro rivers in
the draining of the Amazon River.
1t is a region of fabulous natural
wealth, which has been connected
with legends of Gel Dorado, of
Manoa, and of Raleigh's headless
men. Rich findings of gold and
diamonds are discovered frequen-
thy, bringing a fleeing prosperity.
The great Venezuelan iron mines
are found also in this territory.
Agriculture is almost non-exist-
ent in the Guayana Territory, but
a livestock industry is developing
rapidly. A great portion of the
mining population is nomadic and
make a living from washing gold
or diamonds in the rivers and
streams. Upon crossing the ORR
noco River from the plain, a land
geologically distinct is found; in
place of the soft alluvions of the
plains, there are granite masses
of round profile, indicating that in
place of the sedimentary rocks,
which are those containing petrol
cum, this is a zone of igneous rocks
which are at times associated with
metal-bearing formations. The
fabulous formations of Bolivar
Mountain, Ell Pao, etc, whose
wealth has scarcely been exploited,
are located in this region.
Farther to the south, passing
through lowlands and jungles eros
sed by rivers of ink-black waters
and spectacular cascades, one ar

River, producer of gold and finally
to the Great Savannah. Here the
landscape is superv; spectacular
mountains rise up with their plain
tops and vertical walls, forming
silhouettes similar to medieval

using improvised ladders.
A region of great beauty, the

Used today to release 20 American

hoped all would be out of the jun
giles before nightfall.
The impending release Of the
sailors and Marines kidnapped two
weeks ago was announced by Rear
Adm. Robert B. Ellis, commander

lam, chief American negotiator
with the rebels. as expressing hope

icemen came out of the jungles

air force plane forced down a u.
S. Marine Corps Flying boxcar"
at Santiago, Cuba. The incident
was blamed on a misunderstand-
ing" and the plane and it's nine
man crew were permitted to con-
tinue the flight to Florida.
Rebel raiders, led by Raul Cas-
tro, brother of rebel leader Fidel
Castro, kidnapped the 20 sailors
and Marines June % while they
were returning to the base from
an outing. A 30th serviceman,
Navy Altman T. Robert Mosness,
%, of Ames, Iowa, was captured
outside the base the following
night. He was freed last week.

Safe and sane as usual. Mr..
Meek started things of by
winning three straight heart
tricks. If he had shifted to
a diamond at trick four the
contract would have been
doomed. But he couldn't bring
himself to lead away from
either of his minor suit queens.
He made what he considered
to be the safest shift, a trump.
Mr.. Dale won in his own
hand with the 10 of spades.
Taking stock, he saw that he
had five trump tricks and two
side aces. But where was the
eighth trick coming from?
Clearly some kind of monkey
business had to be attempted
and one of the opponents had
to make a mistake.
So, after taking two more
rounds of trumps, ending on
the board, he pulled the deuce
Iof clubs from dummy. Mr..
Abel hesitated. He figured
that if Mr.. Dale had the queen
and one club he had better
go in with the king or he
wouldn't get a club trick at all.
1t appeared that Mr.. Dale
had five spade winners. He
had to have the ace of dia-

That made six tricks. If he had

DR.. Jones paid the balance. Incl
dentaIly, later checking reveal
ed that their computations had
been wrong and that the amount
paid at that time was too large.
Both Mr.. Avent and DR.. Jones
seemed to think that the original
error had occurred because a girl
had come into the agency and,
seeing DR.. Jones, began telling
of her aches and pains.
Mr.. Avent and DR.. Jones were
deeply concerned with the plight
of the patient and did not notice
the error in the amount that was
charged.
A round trip ticket to Newark
is $64.9O for an adult and half
that for an 11-year-old child. The

$3575 and again halt fare for
