Ghana overthrow complete; army appoints council of 7
LAGOS, Nigeria—(UPI)—The army and police officers who ousted Ghanaian President Kwame Nkrumah formed a National Liberation Council today, called on a retired army general to head it and pronounced the overthrow of the African strongman complete.
Ghana Radio broadcasts said retired Maj. Gen. Joseph Ankrah was given an additional star and named chairman of the seventymember council. Another council member is Col. E. K. Kotaka, commander of the 2nd Infantry Brigade in the northern city of Kumasi whose troops launched the coup Thursday which ended Nkrumah's near-dictatorial reign.
According to Communist Chinese broadcasts monitored in Tokyo, Nkrumah presumably planned to continue his one-man peace mission to North Viet Nam.
Draft call cut
WASHINGTON — (UPI) — The Defense Department today slashed the March draft call by 10,500 men because of a jump in voluntary enlistments.

The largest draft since the big buildup was ordered for Viet Nam was the 45,224-man call in December. It was followed by 38,280 in January and 29,400 this month.
Accra Radio, monitored in Lagos, also announced the surrender of Nkrumah's elite Soviet-trained guards. They surrendered after a brief fight at Flagstaff House, fortress-like residence of Nkrumah.
The 56-year-old ex-president was en route to Peking when the police and military overthrew him.

1. Hey, you coming to the hootenanny?
I'm not feeling very folksy tonight.
8. Why not sing out your woes?
Let the world hear your troubles.
2. You got those low-down, feelin' poorly, out-of- sorts blues?
Look, singing has nothing to do with it. I've been thinking about the kind of work I want to do when I graduate.
I wouldn't get so poetic about it.
4. Music of the people can provide a catharsis.
I don't need one.
5. Shout your story to the hills,
the sands, the far-away seas.
And listen for an answer from
the winds.
I doubt if the winds will tell me where I can get a challenging job with good pay and plenty of opportunity to move up.
6. Oh, if that's what you're concerned about, why not get in touch with Equitable. They're looking for college men who have demonstrated a potential for above-average achievement. I'm sure you'd be happy in one of the special development programs because the work is fascinating, the salary excellent, and the opportunities unlimited.
Say, how about a medley of John Henry, Rock Island Line and Michael, Row the Boat Ashore.
Make an appointment through your Placement Office to see Equitable's employment representative on March 11 or write to Patrick Scollard, Manpower Development Division, for further information.
