To some. "a joyous occasion. To Others,
nothing but gloom and disapEn intment,

Yes, an EFT Doll House. Anderson and
Buck looked at each other perplexed.
They handed the key to Smith and walk

play in it,"
To end this column, may say We had
fun, but actually it was tough job
that had to be completed in a minimum
amount Of time. ALL hands pitched in
and did splendid job in minimum

MIAMI, Fla. Dec. "a (AP).-
Bad luck wrecked our invasion
Of Playa Giron. Air support
would have helped. But with a
couple of good breaks we could
have gone all the way, planes
or not.
Misfortune was far from my
mind, from the time Of enlist
ment in March, 1861, to the
morning Of the invasion on
April II.
I was with the 5th Battalion
aboard the freighter Houston.
We had shipped April IA from
Puerto Cabeza, Nicaragua, and
we're in Cuban waters by 7
pm. April 16.
Our attack got under way
before dawn, but for some rea-
son we could not get our
launches away from the Hous-
ton until the sun was up.
We Were Sitting Ducks
The bad luck with the small
boats was compounded when
the first enemy aircraft arrived.
We thought the B-26 coming
over us was friendly. II wag-
gled its wings. We waved back.
He dived and fired into our
launches. We were sitting ducks
after that.
The B-26 was Joined by
armed Jet trainers and the
British Sea Furies. All we had
In the way OF anti-aircraft
were four 50-caliber machine
guns. One jammed.
Our decks were loaded with
high-octane gas and before

down his cheeks as he walked

The longest wait of all was
that Of the leaders of the Gu

arrivals last night passed the
word that Mr.. Castro was hold
ing the most important prison

Waiting for their sons at this

Families Committee which
Spearheaded the barter of men
for medicines; Jose Miro Car

Revolutionary Council. and
Antonio de Varon, Mr.. Miro's

Mr.. Freyre waited until early
today for the return of his l9-
year-old son, Tieo. Mr.. Miro
stayed to greet his son, Jose

welcome his son, Carlos.
Also awaited were the three
