The dump is located in an
almost barren piece of land
poking into Havana Bay. A
military post is nearby.
Dump UnOccupied
The semi-off1cial newspaper
Revolution said no one was
inside the dump when the ex-
plosion occurred. There are
usually rs soldiers assigned
there but they were on Sunday
leave.
Those closest to the dump
were soldiers at a small mill
tar post 200 feet away, a news
caster on a government TV
station said. Three of them
were injured. Others were in
jured at a garbage dump about
400 feet away.
Other Havana stations re-
ported that men in a speeding
garbage truck had hurled gre
nades at the dump, touching
off the blast. There was nc
confirmation of this report
however.

Hovono Probes Cause
Of Arms Dump Blast
HAVANA .1nna a. LAD,

HAVANA, June q (AP), =
Cuban army officials sought to-
day to determine the cause of
a munitions dump explosion
that rocked Havana with the
force of an earthquake. They
said that to comment about the
origin of the blast would be
premature.
The semioficial newspaper
Revolution said the blasts
which stunned Havanans and
shattered windows over a four
mile area last night led To three
deaths-two men killed and a
woman who died from the ex-
element.
148 Injured Listed
Hospitals listed 148 injured,
many with minor cuts from
broken glass.
Prime Minister Fidel Castro
ordered the Havana Bay site
of the munitions dump sealed
off Immediately after the blast.
An army communique ap-
peared to put the damper-at
least for the moment-on un-
confirmed reports of sabotage.
1n Miami, Fla. a spokesman
for La Cruz (the Cross said
agents of that anti-Castro or
ganization in Cuba touched off
the explosion. He told the
Miami News that trucks carry
ing time bombs were parked
near the ammunition depot
about 6 pm. yesterday. The
blast shook the city shortly
before Z p.m0
Crowds Rush Wildly
The explosions-two small
blasts and one terrific outburst
created a frenzy in the cap
ital.
Crowds rushed wildly about
the streets, some splattered
with blood.
Galiano street. Havana's
shopping center, was Uttered
with glass.
One young militiaman poking
angrily about the shattered
glass fronts muttered: Los
Americanos, los Americanos
(the Americans, the Ameri-
cans).
A traffic jam developed as
streams Of autos and crowds
milled about going to and from
the blast site. Many of the
persons appeared dazed and in
a state of shock.
Castro Car Crashes
Mr.. Castro himself had a
narrow escape when his car
crashed into another car racing
to the scene. He jumped into
another car and kept going.
No one was injured in the
accident.
The Prime Minister and |
President Osvaldo Dorticos,
who inspected the area with
him. had no immediate state
ments.
Flying glass caused most of |
the casualties in the blast-the
second munitions explosion in
Havana Bay in the last three
months.
The munitions dump was on
a tongue of land jutting into
the southwest corner of Havana
Bay, less than a mile from
where the French ship La Cou-
bre blew up March 4 while un-
loading munitions, killing about
100 persons.
Mr.. Castro suggested that
United States officials were to
blame for the La Coubre explo-
sion but admitted he had no
evidence to back up his suspi-
cions. United States Secretary
of State Christian A. Herter de-
nounced the Castro statements

Two million Americans will
travel abroad this year. About
1880 of them will lose their
luggage.
They will spend $2.5 billion.
About 0.5 per cent Of this will
be spent on knick- -knacks of
native crafts, which seemed
like a good idea at the time
but which now begin to pail a
little.
They will hassle with Gus
toms men, who don't like to

any more than the traveller

When you talk about Hot
Springs in this current winter

The Homestead Hotel-where
the management once turned
pale at the mention of snow

chimes to insure that there will

The Homestead opened its ski
facilities in mid December.
During the Christmas and New
Years holidays the resort was
booked to its capacity of 600.
and, the management adds,
'it is a safe assumption that
most of them came because of
the skiing.
Snow, in Virginia, while not
uncommon. is not always abun-
dant. So each night when the
temperature drops below 80
degrees. the ski area, which
includes about two miles of
slopes, is crowded with snow
machines. which can throw
down about three inches a
night.
In about a weeks time, the
operators figure. they can blan-
ket the ski slopes with a foot
of artificial snow.
The ski facility was built at
a cost of 100000. Another
100000 went into building an
ice skating rink at the bottom
of the main ski slope.
Winter sports appear to be
making inroads in the sunny

A boat tossing on stormy sea is exciting to watch on the movie screen, where the script guaran- tees that everything will end safe ly in sunlit tranquility.
 But if you can't count on having a Hollywood script writer to res cue you, here are seven hints from the current (May) issue of the Ziff-Davis magazine Popular Boat ing on how to save yourself:
 1. If the boat is not already equipped, life lines should be rig ged around any areas where it is necessary to move around or to work.
 2. Loose gear should be put be- low or securely fastened down.
 3. The speed of the vessel should be reduced enough to lessen the punishment from the sea keeping just enough way on for steering-and the boat should be steered so as to quarter into the wind and sea.
 4. Try to work your way into the lee of any land which may lie to windward. Very often water will smooth behind a land mass in spite of bowling gale.
 5. If there is no protective land, the best place to head for is wide open space out where the water is deep and there is plenty of room between your boat and the beach.

6. Avoid running into areas where the water is shallow. In such places the waves build up into a dangerously steep chop. The same applies to entrances of rivers, channels and harbors that are pro- tected by a reef or bar.
 '. In the case of the usual squall of short duration, states Popular Boating, it's better to keep away and ride it out than to try to pass through such dangerous areas.
