Keita is from the former French
Sudan. Dia is from tho former
French Senegal, most-populous of
the two states in the federation
formed only last year. The feder-
ation became independent June 20.
In a bid to become a strong-
man, Keita dismissed Dia Friday
and declared a state of urgency
—corresponding to martial law.
Keita was at a disadvantage in
the struggle since Dakar, seat of
the federation government, is in
Senegal. He thus tried his coup

Surrounded by his supporters,
Keita was reported to be closely
confined at Government House.
His hand-picked army chief, Col.

and Dia is premier of Senegal.
Keita dismissed Dia in a move

American States
Put Stiff Embargo
On Arms Shipments
SAN JOSE, Costa Kica
(AP)- Western hemisphere
foreign ministers in an un-
precedented action voted
Saturday to break off diplo-
matic relations with the
Dominican Republic and em-
bargo all arms shipments to
its strongman regime.
Deminican delegates walked out
of the meeting as the ministers
forwarded their resolution to the
Organization of American States
for its certain approval.
Dominican Foreign Minister
Porfirio Herrera Baez refused to
comment on the condemnation of
his government. His departure
does not necessarily mean Domin-
ican withdrawal from the OAS,
however, as all Latin-American
states and the United States have
automatic membership.
The strong action against the
Dominican Republic was without
precedent in Latin-American his-
tory and diplomatic sources said
the mood of the ministers spells
trouble for leftist Cuba when its
case comes up next week. Cuba's
charges of U.S. aggression got a
cool reception when first voiced
earlier this week.
The foreign ministers convicted
Generalissimo Rafael Trujillo’s
Dominican strongman regime of
aggression against Venezuela. Ven-
ezuela accused Trujillo officials of
backing a recent plot to assassi
nate President Romulo Betancourt
and to overthrow his Venezuelan
government. The Dominican Re-
public denied the charges.
In agreeing with Veneznela, the
ministers passed over a U.S. sug-
gestion that the OAS appoint a
special committee to assure an
orderly transition to a new re-
gime in the Dominican Republic.
The foreign ministers decided to
pass the question of a special com-
mittee over to a second meeting
Monday on foreign threats t the
hemisphere, where U.S. charges
of Communist penetration in Cuba
will be considered.
Eight Latin-American nations
already have broken relations
with the Dominican Republic.
Foreign Minister Raul Roa of
Tuba, meanwhile, kept up his at-
tack on Secretaty of State Chris-
tian A. Herter.
The first speaker at the plenary
session, Roa said Herter’s com-
ments Thursday on the Cuban’s
attack on the United States were
“Hitlerite.” Herter had arisen in
reply to Roa and said the Cuban's
speech reminded him “of a direct
parallel of speeches I have heard
coming from representatives of
the Soviet Union.”

There's gonna be a real crazy
go-kart race in Denton next
month. And the Denton men and
women who often make headlines
are going to be the contestants.
What's more, 25 of them already
have agreed to pay a $50 entrance
fee for the privilege — if that's
the word — to drivie one of the
little cars that barely run across
the top of asphalt.
It's all part of what's being bill-
ed as the First Annual Interna-
tional Go-Kart Headliner Race.
The object?
To raise money for an indus-
trial development fund for the
Denton Chamber of Commerce.
The race will be held the after-
noon of Sept. 25, a Sunday, at the
Denton Go-Kart Track on the ex-
pressway.
J. Holford Russell, department
store owner, chamber director and
a contestant himself, has already
contacted 25 of the city’s "head-
liners." Not one has turned him
down, he said Saturday. He plans
to contact more this week.
To Spaceman
MOSCOW (AP)—The So-
viet Union said Saturday its
dog-carrying space ship has
been returned to earth with
its live cargo safe.
The Soviets triumphantly an-
nounced the historical first of or-
biting living creatures Into svace
and returning them alive. They
heralded the feat as the forerun-
ner of man's flight into space.
The Soviet News Agency Tass
said the two dogs that rode the
space capsule are healthy after
their- 24-hour flight 437,500 miles
around the earth. They are under-
going medical examination.
The dogs, named Arrow and
Squirrel and about the size of
large fox terriers, were whizzed
around the globe at a height of
198.8 miles at a rate of 227 miles
a minute. They circled the earth
18 times before they were landed
at a predetermined spot, Tass
said.
CAPSULES RECOVERED
While the United States has re-
covered vehicles from outer
space, it has not returned a living
being from orbit beyond the
earth's atmosphere. .
The Soviets said they brought
back to earth both the space ship
and “the capsule with the experi-
mental animals detached from the
ship."
Radio Moscow said in addition
to the two dogs, the 4%-ton space
ship carried several rats and mice,
flies, plants, fungi, microscopic
water plants and some seeds. It
also carried television cameras to
observe the dogs’ behavior and a
raft of scientific instruments
It was launched Friday just in
time for the feat to be announced
at the height of excitement over
the trial of the American U2 plane
pilot, Francis Gary Powers.

when the Congolese Parliament

nounced.
New rioting was reported in
Leopoldville, the Congo capital. It
was reported the key Congo River
port of Matadi was closed after
15 Belgian paratroopers in civilian
clothes were allegedly found
aboard one ship.
Coupled with Kuznetsov's de-
mands for the Canadian troop
withdrawal and his attack on the
civilian aid program was his re-
newed hint of military help for
Lumumba in the Congolese Pre-
mier's attempt to conquer rebel-
lious Katanga Province.
Minutes before the speaker ded-
icated the site a lone woman pick-
eted the base asking for "negoti-

meet the Seoul orphan at Los An-
geles International Airport, where
she got her first view of the Unit-
ed States. But he had to spend all
of his funds on her flight from Los
Angeles to Fort Worth.
Negotiations for the adoption of
Bai Chung, now called Doris Jose-
fina, began last October. At the
time Collazo-Grau was serving his
second tour of duty in Korea.
Before leaving Korea he person-
ally picked Doris Josefina and last
saw her in December. She had
been a ward of the- Child Place-
ment Service in Seoul since nego-
tiations began for her adoption
nine months ago.
The soldier picked the little girl
because "My wife and I only had
one daughter, and we all wanted
two.” He made his preliminary
selection from photographs sub-
mitted to him while he was serv-
ing with his unit in the Korean
capital.
A veteran of 17 years' service.
Collazo-Grau had previously serv-
ed in Korea as a member of the
45th Infantry Division in 1952-53.
He had seen the orphans at that
time and thought he could help by
adoption of a child.
His family heartily share in his
feelings. Vicente Jr., 13, Rafael,
12, and Julio, 11, sat and smiled at
their new sister Saturday. Olga,
9, took Doris Josefina to her room
to play, and Mrs. Collazo-Grau
busily sewed a dress for the new
daughter.
And Doris Josefina was already
getting used to her new home and
American ways — of the younger
set. Munching potato chips, she
romped about the house leaving a
trail of crumbs in her wake.
All that's left now is for her to
learn two more languages — Eng-
lish and Spanish. Her English vo-
cabulary consist of "Mama,”
