Never rest your elbows on
the table before you.
This angered the sitters.
We've never heard of such
piff1ing stupidity" snapped one
of the girls to reporters.
Gross impertinence," said
William Davies, an official of
the union to which the girls
belong.
What difference does it
make if you cross your legs?"

The girls are known as sort

Il did ask supervisors to tell
the girls how to use their new
chairs. I didn't ask for any
written edict to be issued. But
I agree with it."
Mr.. Davies said his union

appeared in a series of articles
by Earl Mazo, a member of the

Washington Bureau.

wrote Assistant Secretary of

representatives of the New

thereof?"
This letter was a follow up
to Senator Fulbright'S protest

OHlCeQ STATES wants TO press
for early disposal of the sweep
ing Khrushchev plan to revamp
the United Nations and take it
out of New York, to free all
dependent peoples Immediately
and to arrange general and
complete disarmament"
Mr.. Khrushchev, in his long
General Assembly speech yes
terday, used the word "stooges"
and clearly implied that Sec
retary General Dag Hammar-
skiold had abused his position
by his actions in the Congo.
He then said the Office of Sec
retary General should be abol-
iShed, to be replaced by a
three-man committee of rep
resentatives of the West, East
and neutralist nations.
Seeks New Site
He said the site of the U. N.
should be changed from New
York to Switzerland or Aus
trla-or even Russia. In New
York, he said. U. N. representa-
tives are subjected to "restric-
tions" and attacks by gang

Believes Man Launched
He believes their astfonaut
program was taken away from
doctors at that time and given
to rocket people.
A few months ago, he be-
lieveS, the Russians shot a man
about IS miles high in a rocket.
This was the burden of a
London news story of Septem-
ber IA which has remained un-
confirmed, but which he said
he thinks is true.
In recent weeks, he said,
Soviet scientists have been
asking him questions on two
new subjects: Hazards to life
from radiation in space and
effects on humans of drastic
acceleration rates. This, he
said, indicates the Soviets need
ed more data quickly on space
travel.
Failure Reported
Then there were reports
and he cited only newspaper
sources-a few days ago of a
big Soviet rocket launching
which failed. He believes this
was an effort to put one or two
men into orbit.
1t would fit the Russian pat
tern, he said, for them to ry
to do a sensational space stunt
while Mr.. KhruShchev was in
New York. To put it bluntly,
he believes two men were
sacrificed to give the Premier a
stunt.
Even without the propaganda
motive, Gen. Flickinger said
the Soviets are ready now to
orbit man and get a great deal
of valuable scientific informa-
ton. Similar United States at
temps are at least a year away.

This is Mr.. Devine's account:
Macbeth was picked up by
the gamblers last night outside

campus. He was given the cash
and his instructions during a
ride around Gainesville after
which he was taken back to
the dormitory.
Gamblers Elude Police
"The blers, however

were in hiding on the campus
could catch them.
Macbeth was approached by
the gamblers August 20 through

Macbeth said he was told
that the Gators are a 12-to-13-

Cuba and Chinese Reds
{ establish Diplomatic Tie
First Action
OF Kind in
Hemisphere

HAVANA, Sept. "a (AP).-
Cuba today announced eStab-
lishment Of diplomatic relations
with Communist China.
The announcement came af-
ter a cabinet session in which
Prime Minister Fidel Castro
participated by long-distance
telephone from New York,
where he is attending the U. N.
General Assembly. =
Cuba is the first nation in
the Western Hemisphere to rec.
ognized Red China.
The Castro regime had previ-
ously signed a trade pact with
Peiping.
Other Red Ties
The Castro regime also es-
tablished diplomatic relations
with North Korea and voted in
to law a commercial agreement
with Yugoslavia. Mr.. Castro's
swing toward closer relations
with the Communist bloc began
last May when he re-eStablished
diplomatic relations with the
Soviet Union, which had been
broken off during the regime of
Fulgencio Batista. At that time
he also raised the Czechoslovak
legation to the higher rank Of
embassy.
The cabinet decreed recog-
milton of the Peiping regime
during a marathon session that
ended early today.
Palace sources said the cab
met meeting was interrupted
about half way while Mr.. Cas-
tro spoke by long distance tele-
phone with President Osvaldo
DorticoS and with Raul Castro,
his younger brother who is act
ing Prime Minister.
Fidel Castro had announced
his governments intention of
establishing relations with Red
China during a mass rally on
September 3. !,
10000 Chinese in Cuba
At that time Mr.. Castro said
Cuba no longer recognizes the,
Chinese Nationalist govern
ment of Chang Kai-shek. Nine
days later Nationalist Ambas-'
Sador Liu Yu-wan handed over
all embassy property and few
to Miami on his way home to
Formosa.
The 10000 Chinese residents
OF Cuba are mostly all sup
porterS of Nationalist China.
A Nationalist Chinese bank
branch here. the Bank of
China with $40 million in as
sets, was taken over earlier by
the Cuban National Bank. It
is believed the Chinese Com
munists will be given control
of the bank.
Setting up relations with Red
China and North Korea is the
first step in fulfillment Of Mr..
aCastro's pledge that Cuba will
recognize "all socialist" count-
tries.
U. S. Aide Expelled"
The Cuban government Or
dered another United States
Embassy secretary expelled last
night for illicit activities"
The secretary, Miss Carolyn
o. Stacy, of Davenport, Iowa,
whose parents live in San Fran
cisco, already had left Cuba.

said the secretaries were part

Meanwhile from Cienfuegos
came a report that a govern
ment militiaman and an anti
