Central Americans Fight Rebel Forces
United Press International
Troops in Guatemala, Nicaragua and Costa Rica were locked in battle today with rebels described by the three governments as Communists and "mercenaries" supported by Cuba's Premier Fidel Castro.
Only scattered casualty figures had been published, but losses at some points were believed to be heavy.
The situation in brief:
GUATEMALA — President Miguel Ydigoras, returning from a reconnaissance flight over rebelheld territory northeast of Guatemala City, told newsmen bombardment by the government's rocket-carrying B-26 bombers had "totally destroyed" the military bases at Zacapa and Puerto Barrios, lost in the early hours of the revolt.
Loyal troops were grouping to recapture the shattered bases at dawn today.
The government proclaimed a 30-day state of siege — modified martial law — and imposed a nine-hour nightly curfew on the country. Meetings of more than four persons, in public or private, were prohibited.
Late reports said the rebels in Puerto Barrios had siezed loyal Congressman Manuel Castillo Ramirez and David Ordonez as hostages.

NICARAGUA — Tank-led loyal troops had driven the guerrillas who invaded the country Friday night, out of Jinotepe and Diriamba, the southwestern cities on the Pan-American highway, which were the first targets of their attack.
High school students called a strike this afternoon in memory of a student leader executed in an anti-Castro uprising last month.
CUBA — Roman Catholic educators and anti-Communist students today defied threats of reprisals by Cuba's revolutionary regime.
A small-scale war was raging along the Costa Rican-Nicaraguan border between civil guard units and guerrillas reported wearing green Cuban military fatigue uniforms. Costa Rican authorities said planes they described as Cuban were seen flying into the areas controlled by the guerrillas over the weekend, apparently ferrying in supplies.
COSTA RICA — Costa Rica today threw all available troops into action against guerrilla bands said to be trying to invade neighboring Nicaragua with the support of Cuba.
Criticism comes easier than craftsmanship—Zeuxis
The government said loyal troops were "mopping up" scattered groups of rebels in the Carazo area.
Two unidentified Americans were captured by the rebels in Diriamba, but were freed when they abandoned the city.

—The United States has asked an Inter-American "Good Offices" committee to mediate its dispute with Cuba.

U.S. Asks OAS Committee To Mediate Cuban Dispute
Cuba so far has refused to indicate whether it would agree to accept the work of the committee, which was set up by the Hemisphere Foreign Ministers Conference in San Jose last August.
THE U.S. request was made known in a letter from Jose A Mora, secretary general of the Organization of American States (OAS), to U.N. Secretary General Dag Hammskjold.
The United States, in making the request, accused Cuba of a "military build-up in collaboration with the Soviet Bloc" which threatened peace throughout Latin America

Solid opportunities with solid state devices
A big part of Western Electric's job is to manufacture the miniature "new arts" products that are changing the science of communications. It's a job which offers you a challenging career—a chance to plan new methods of mass producing ever-improving kinds of transistors, ferrite devices, diodes, special purpose electron tubes, etc.
You'll be with a company that is expanding rapidly in this field. At present our Allentown and Laureldale, Pa., plants are devoted exclusively to making electron devices, and a big new plant is under construction in Kansas City. The needs of the Bell Telephone System for these products are increasing daily and will multiply enormously with the introduction of Electronic Central Office switching now nearing trial operation.
These devices are changing the scene at all our manufacturing plants as they go into the startling new communications products developed by our associates at Bell Telephone Laboratories. From microwave transmission
--equipment to submarine cable amplifiers, our products call for creative production engineering, installation planning, and merchandising methods. Our job for the Bell System and the U.S. government has grown to the point where we are now one of the nation's "Top 11" in industrial sales. And your chance to play an important part in our future growth is solid!
Opportunities exist for electrical, mechanical, industrial, civil and chemical engineers, as well as physical science, liberal arts, and business majors. For more information, get your copy of Consider a Career at Western Electric from your Placement Officer. Or write College Relations, Room 6106, Western Electric Company, 195 Broadway, New York 7, N. Y. Be sure to arrange for a Western Electric interview when the Bell System recruiting team visits your campus.
