Cuban Premier Trades Americans for Cubans
HOMESTEAD AIR FORCE BASE, Fla. — (UPI) — Cuban Premier Fidel Castro emptied his dungeons of all American prisoners except one longtime enemy yesterday in exchange for four Cubans held in U.S. jails.
He also promised to allow 800 to 1,000 Cubans to leave his Communist island later this week.
New York attorney James B. Donovan, who arranged the swap, arrived here yesterday aboard an airliner with 21 of the pale and skinny Americans. He said three others decided to go to a Latin American country instead of returning to their homeland and three chose to remain in Cuba with their families.
P-t-P Ambassador Trip Set for Mexico
People-to-People will take a student ambassador trip to Mexico this summer.
The trip has been planned for approximately 25 highly qualified students who are well familiar with Mexico and are proficient in Spanish.
The tentative cost for transportation is $125. The cost does not include expenses of lodging where home stays are not possible.
The group will depart from Kansas City on Monday, June 17, and will return on August 17. The students will travel first to Mexico City for two weeks. These two weeks will include the orientation period and homestays with the Mexican families.
Following the orientation in Mexico City, the students will visit various university campuses throughout Mexico. They will have an opportunity to come in contact with Mexican students there and will be able to stay with additional Mexican families.
Interested students should pick up the application blank at the P-t-P office in the Kansas Union.
