Reds plan first
MOSCOW—(UPI)—Blackie and Breeze, Russia's orbiting canines, have paved the way for a new space spectacular this month that will take Russian cosmonauts three times higher than man has ever flown, informed sources said today.
The two dogs, now in their 19th day in orbit around the earth, have proved it is safe for Soviet spacemen to soar into the Van Allen belts of heavy radiation more than 500 miles above the earth, the sources said.
The sources added that Blackie and Breeze will be returned to earth soon and are to be followed into orbit within the next 20 days by two or more men in the record-breaking space flight.
The planned space shot—the first Russian manned flight in a year—will be intended to break all orbital altitude records and may go for the two-week endurance record held by the United States, they said.
Shift in State Department
WASHINGTON—(UPI)—A White House move to realign certain State Department posts appeared today to have become a call to the battlements for strategically placed House liberals.
Two members of a government operations subcommittee that must approve the move indicated they would oppose it unless their suspicions about the motives behind the reorganization were put to rest.
The controversy centers around Abba P. Schwartz, former director of the State Department's Bureau of Security and Consular Affairs.
Schwartz was reorganized out of his job under a plan that would do away with his bureau and reassign its functions elsewhere. He submitted his resignation last weekend and was reportedly bitter over the fact that he had not been told of the White House reorganization plan until the ax was ready to fall.
Major Gemini test today
CAPE KENNEDY—(UPI)—The Gemini 8 spaceship faced its second major test in two days today to clear the way for the start Tuesday of a historic three-day rendezvous and spacewalk mission.
Engineers planned to put the 7,500-pound capsule and its Titan 2 rocket through a series of simulated flights to make sure that the 109-foot vehicle is ready to haul astronauts Neil Armstrong and David Scott into orbit.

U.S., Thi lose Viet posts
The decision to surrender the camp was made after the weather, which had cleared earlier in the day, closed back in and prevented effective air support for the "Green Beret" troops and their Vietnamese allies.
It was disclosed at the same time that the troops attacking the camp were North Vietnamese regulars who had massed on the other side of the Laotian border 375 miles northeast of Saigon. McKean said there were between 2,000 and 2,500 men in the Communist force.
top South Viet general dismissed by Ky
SAIGON —(UPI) — U.S. Special Forces troops and Montagnard tribesmen today surrendered their battered outpost on the Laotian border to Communist North Vietnamese regulars after a two-day siege. Some of the defenders were safely evacuated by helicopters after the heroic stand.
THE END WAS SEEN as invitable when a pilot reported earlier today that "we have orders to hit anything that moves in the camp now." The outpost's radio operator had called down air
In a political development, the most powerful general in the South Vietnamese army was dismissed today from his command. Reliable sources said Maj. Gen. Nguyen Chanh Thi agreed to step down as commander of the Vietnamese army's First Corps.

Smoke bombs replace rice at royal wedding
AMSTERDAM, The Netherlands—(UPI)—Club swinging police battled 1,000 youths in the streets of Amsterdam today as rioting broke out to protest the marriage of Crown Princess Beatrix to German diplomat Claus von Amsberg, a one-time member of the Hitler Youth and the Wehrmacht.
THE GREAT GOLDEN wedding coach carrying the 28-year-old blonde princess and her handsome 39-year-old consort was almost obscured from the crowds at times by the swirling smoke bombs. Some guests entering the
Students protesting von Amsberg's Nazi past hurled barrages of smoke bombs which had wedding guests coughing as Holland's future queen was married to von Amsberg in civil and religious ceremonies. The crowned heads of Europe attending the event remained as aloof as if nothing were happening.

Senate studies U. S. policy
WASHINGTON—(UPI)The Senate Foreign Relations Committee resumes its wide-ranging examination of U.S. policy toward China today amid reports that Peking, too, has been holding some kind of top-level foreign policy review.
While some of the diplomats presumably went back for routine reassignment, the presumption here was that most were called in for talks on foreign policy. They began filtering back to their posts this month so the talks apparently are over.
The witness before the Senate committee today was Dr. John K. Fairbank, director of Harvard's East Asian Research Center and an expert on China.

Police had expected demonstrations by young ruffians and by persons remembering the cruel Nazi occupation of Holland and the Stuka attacks on Rotterdam. Reinforcement had been brought in but they were not enough.
The "provos," young provocateurs, hurled their smoke bombs along the processional route despite the presence of 10,000 ceremonial troops and thousands of state, city and military police. As fast as they clubbed one group into submission fighting broke out elsewhere.
