Three Slap MIA,
CeIts With Suits
For $750,000

SYRACUSE, N. Y, Feb. 9
(AP Damage suits totaling
$750,000 have been brought
against the National Basketball
Association. the Boston MIA
entry, Coach Red Auerbach and
four of his players, and two
other groups by three Syracuse
men who claim they were in
jured in a free-for-all here
last year.
The action stems from a
melee last March IS in the
Onondaga County War Me-
mortal Auditorium during the
fourth game of the Boston
Syracuse playoff series.
The plaintiffs are Joseph
Dauccio, Barry Lewis, 10, and
his father, Jessie Lewis.
Besides Auerbach, the NBA
and the Celtics, defendants are
Tom Heinsohn, Gene Coniey,
Jim Loscutoff and Frank Ram
sey, the Onondaga County War
Memorial Commission and On
ondaga County. Conley now
plays for the New York Tapers
of the American Basketball
League.
Dauccio, contending four
players jumped on him and
struck him after he was pushed
near the Boston bench, is ask
ing $500,000 from all the de-
PENDANTS. He alleges he has
suffered dizziness from a head
injury. - al. -rs
Barry Lewis is seeking $685.
600 for alleged assault and
battery. and the father is ask
ing 100000 from all the de-
services of his son. The father
and son are suing only the
MIA, the Celtics and Auerbach.

bach struck him.
The fight broke out after
Auerbach protested a goal
tending call against the Celtics'
Bill Russell.

Hoyo Runner Prepping
For 4-Minute Mile

facial expression that suggests
he's reached the limit of human
suffering.
He hasn't. and as long as
he's under Benedek's wing he
isn't likely to. He'll run the
mile only on alternate weeks,
concentrate on shorter dis
tances in the other meets.
We'll bring him along
slowly" Benedek says. I'VE
don't want to burn him out.
You hear about some of these
young boys who have a great
future, but they try to go too
fast. They get down to 4:03 or
maybe 400, but they can't get
any lower.
Likes Early Lead
Reilly will eventually get
down to 4 minutes, but it will
take two or three years. He's
young and doesn't have enough
stamina to force himself.
Stamina comes with more age"
Which is all right with Reilly,
who claims he doesn't run
against the clock.
II wasn't proud of my time
in Boston," he says, "but ]
won"
His strategy is simple.
II like to take the lead for
the first lap or two, then come
off the pace at the end. In
Boston I led the first lap and
didn't get back in front until
the final turn"
That might explain why Ben
edek is coaching him on shift
ing to a shorter stride when
he's pressed. The additional
speed generated by the short
steps would help him fight off
a challenge.
But that's the only style
tinkering Benedek plans. Reilly
has run the same way since
he began as a high school
freshman, at shorter distances
at first, then gradually length
ening.
AS a sophomore last year,
Reilly ran his first mile and
was timed in over 4:12. He said
he had some indication Bene-
dek planned to use him extern
Sively in the mile during the
fall when "he ran me so much
in cross country"
If Reilly is to get under 4
minutes, he'll have to run ex-
tensively outdoors. But most OF
the Georgetown spring season
is confined to relays.
1.-THE big mile races are in
California" Reilly says. "I've
never been there, but I'd sure
like to breathe some of that
California air"

HAVANA. Dec. 20 tAP).--
Reports from various sources
indicated today a number OF
political prisoners are leaving
Cuban prisons under terms re-
sembling parole.
These reports circulated as
the Interior Ministry served
formal notice that no more rel
atives Of the freed Bay Of Pigs
invaders will be allowed to
leave aboard the African Pilot.
A hand-written notice nailed
10 the old wooden doors Of the
Cuban immigration Office said
the American freighter will not
pick up any more passengers
for travel to the United States.
The African Pilot, which
carried 927 relatives OF the
prisoners on It's first trip back
from Havana, is due 10 make
three or four more voyages TO
Havana to deliver medicine and
food that brought freedom for
the prisoners.
The decision TO halt this
exodus dashed the hopes Of
several thousand relatives who
wanted to Join the men now

Prime Minister Fidel Castro,
who had authorized the de-
parture OF the first group
aboard the African Pilot, later
promised TO let a second group

Gas Stution Man
Shoots, but Pair
Escape With $365

Two hold-up men traded
shots with a service station
owner last night and escaped
with more than $685..
Just after 7 pm, two men
entered the office Of the
Brookland Gulf Service Sta
ton at 1920 Michigan avenue
NE. One of them brandished
a .25-caliber automatic, accord
ing to the owner, Charles M
Wood, 80, of 1924 Fur'man
parkway, Riverdale.
The two men forced Mr.
Wood, his son. Darrell, I6, and
Robert Martin, %, of 1898 New
ton street, NE, an employe,
into the back room.
They took sos from the own
er's wallet and a roll of bills

more than $500, he said.
AS the men went towards the
front door, Mr.. Wood grabbed
his own revolver from a desk
and opened fire with two shots
Police believe one of the men
may have been nicked in the
arm. The gun-wielding robber
turned and fired one shot that
struck the wall Just five inches
over the owners head.
Mr.. Wood said he and his
son chased the two men north
on Michigan avenue but lost
them when they ran behind
houses at Twelfth street, NE

tache. The other was described
as short and stocky. Both were

Donovan Still Expects
Release Of $500 Kin

$50 million in commodities
pledged for the release Of pris-
onerS, additional relatives will
be brought back, according to
the terms of the agreement,
Mr.. Donovan said.
In Washington, a Red Cross
spokesman said the African
Pilot, which took over supplies
and brought back the first load
of relatives, is no longer avail
able. He said the Red Cross is
now chartering another ship,
but nothing is in prospect on
that for several weeks.
HE said the Red Cross knew
nothing about bringing back
another load of relatives out
side Of newspaper reports and
had not been approached Off
cially. He added, however, that
the question is likely to come
up at the time the second ship
goes to Cuba.
(Other officials said the
agreement reported by Mr..
Donovan was separate from
the written agreement to ex-
change drugs and food for the
Cuban prisoners0
Mr.. Donovan said there had
: been much misunderstanding
about the United States Gov
ernment's role in arranging the
prisoners swap. fst
He said he did not agree that
the presence of the Govern
Iments in the picture had ex-
ierted subtle pressures and had
brought forth contributions for
the ransom that otherwise
would not have been made.
Mr.. Donovan said a plan for
releasing the prisoners had
been completed under strictly
private auspices but had COL
lapsed in the crisis over the
presence of Soviet rockets,
planes and military personnel
on the island, 80 miles off the
United States mainland.
Mr.. Donovan said the de-
cision to resume the prisoner
negotiations after the crisis
had passed could only have
been made by the Government
He said the decision was made
at "the very highest level" and
he assumed President Kennedy
was involved.
Subsequently, Mr.. Donovan
said, agencies Of the Justice
and State Departments as
sisted in settlement of such
!, things as tax and antitrust
matters.
! But, he said, the mission
: never lost its character as
private undertaking by a pri'
!, vate committee. 1t never be-
, came a Government operation.

Freed Cuban Prisoners Tell Own Story
Of Invasion Disaster at Bay Of Pigs;

where and when we were going
to land, but. we may have lust
landed in the wrong plAea.
Two Shot In Air
1.-TWO of my buddies were
shot to death while we were
coming down. We never did get
connected UP with the main
force sal n
.(Mr. Berrellez. one of the au-
thors Of this story, was in Hal
vana that morning, He saw
thousands Of Mr.. CastroS milf
tia pouring east toward the Bay
Of Pigs. These troops had been
rushed a week earlier in the
other direction to answer q
false invasion runor. The big
anti-Castro underground, which
had prepared to blow up bridges
and tunnels between Havana
and the invasion area, had
been wiped out by mass arrests
April IS when invasion planes
attacked without previous
warning to the underground
BY nightfall, Mr.. Castro's
reinforcements had reached the
battle area and the tide began
to turn.
There were some ferocious
battles that night" said young
Leyva. Their tanks came up
and fought with ours. Our
crews were better trained and
we hurt them"
Eight of Castro's tanks at
tackled u.s." Mr.. Santiago said.
I'VE got all but one"
Supplies Run Low
Then supplies ran low.
I'VE had no food, no water.
I had couple of crackers with
me, that's ALL" Mr.. Santiago
said.
by the 10th, we were about
out of ammunition and our
bazookas were down to one
shell per gun, Their attacks
were getting heavier and now
their artillery was coming into
action. Their air force strafed
u.s." Mr.. Leyva said. ~
I'VE got the order to retreat.
We were told we were on our
own" -.
From then on it was long,
weary months in prison
months of poor food, uncertain
ty as to the future and some
times inhuman treatment. At
last, after what seemed an
eternity to the prisoners, Mr..
Castro agreed to let them go.
The elder Leyva flew from
Paterson. N. j., to Florida to
meet his son.
II want to complete my edu-
cation" said the BOY. IT never
want to be in uniform again
in my life" g..
Luis Entrialgo had q differ
lent notion, which reflected the
feeling of some of the others:
I'm ready to so back to-
morrow.
Ulises Carlo quickly headed
for his home in Coral Gables.
There Ulises, jr., gave him back
the house keys. -"
