( WORLD NEWS BRIEFS By United Press International Fidel Caytro ANTI-CASTRO TROOPS GAIN HAVANA Anti-Castro rebels in the Escambray Moun tains were reported Monday to have inflicted numerous casual ties on government forces in a raid on a militia rest camp. The attack was carried out in the Snacti Spiritus region where government leaders last month claimed to have smashed the anti-Castro opposition. Meager reports which could not be confirmed officially because of government censorship on mili tary operations .said the guerilla forces were led by Maj. Osvaldo Ramirez. According to the reports, Ramirez raiders smashed into the civilian militia rest camp with guns blazing and retired quickly and quietly as they had arrived. . HOLMES MEETS TROUBLE IN SENATE WASHINGTON Veteran diplomat .' Julius C. Holmes, President Kennedy's choice for ambassador to Iran, ran into stiff Senate questioning Monday about his quick profits in surplus tanker deals more than a decade ago. Sen. John J. Williams, R-Del., who led the interrogation at a Senate Foreign Relations Committee hearing, said a tanker obtained by a firm in which Holems was a partner later turned up hauling high-octane gas to Russia and Red China just before the Korean War. Holmes denied any responsibility for the company, to whiph his firm sold the taken and two others for an indicated 450 per cent profit. He insisted he never had done anything illegal in the tanker deals and replied repeatedly that he could not recall details. PHOUM A INVITED TO U. S.

STORMS CHILL NORTHEAST The latest in a series of bitter spring storms chilled the Northeast Monday with tree-toppling winds and snows up to 15 inches deep.

Another storm was gaining strength off the New Jersey coast. Boonville, located in the New York Adirondacks, reported 15 inches of new snow.

Moscow Radio New, Ignores Statement MOSCOW (UPI) Usually reliable but unofficial sources said Monday night Russia may have launched a man into space for the first time and brought him back alive. A manned Russian space flight would give the So viet Union a victory in the space race with the United States and would be a major breakthrough in space ex ploration. - Radio and TV personnel were ordered on 24-hour alert for an important announcement, and scientists told friends to stand by for earth-1 The U.N.

The main Moscow radio news bulletin Monday night made no mention of the report. It was believed any announcement might be delayed until at least Tuesday. Russians Believe As the report spread, more and more Russians believed it. These signs tended to lend sub stance to it: . Spaceship IV, weighing five tons, was orbited and brought back safely with the dog "Blackie" aboard alive and well last March 9. Spaceship V, also weighing five tons, orbited the earth once with the dog "Starlet" aboard on March 25 and was brought safely back to a pre-designated target in Russia. Premier Nikita S. Khrush chev said last month "the time is not far off" when the first Russian - will be sent into space. One report, without any con firmation, was that a Russian astronaut had been brought back from space and now was undergoing examination by physicians. All of the dogs brought back alive showed no ill effects, scientists have stated. Moscow newsmen began what amounted to a Cape Canaveral style "birdwatch." Russian camera and TV crews arrived at the central telegraph office where foreign correspon dents file their dispatches. There was speculation the crews were there to record reaction as a major story broke. The camera and TV men left an hour later as abrutply as they came. But reprots persisted that the Soviets had, indeed, achiev ed manned flight into space and brought their astronaut back to earth. Khrushchev was not in Mos cow. He last was reported on vacation at the Black Sea re sort of Pitsunde, near Sochi, in the Caucasus.

WILL ASSUME U.N.C. REIGN 'King' Coming To Carolim "Bishop" Homer A. Tomlin son has informed U.N.C. that he will appear here next Friday, April 14, to crown himself "King of the ' University of North Carolina." Tomlinson did not disclose the source of his right to this title. Although the Daily Tar Heel has not yet contacted President Friday or Chancellor Aycock on the matter, informed sources say that the new "King" is not expected to assume any ad ministrative duties at this time. Tomlinson will bring the same portable throne, robe, crown, and 4' by 6' banner of peace which he has used in his service of self -coronation at over 30 universities. World Cosiiiuency A news release sent to the DTH by King Tomlinson him self said that his Church of God now has a world constituency of 150 million. The Church of God was founded by his late father. Bishop A. J. Tomlinson, one June 13, 1903 in North Carolina. Although the Churchs World Headquarters are now located in Queens Village, N. Y., Tom linson has not forsaken North Carolina. In 1940 - he returned to Murphey, the original site of the church company, and erect ed the. Ten Commandments in 7-foot letters. Favorite of Youth In addition to crowning him self king of many colleges, Tom linson has appealed to youth in other manners. His news re lease states that in his disap pointment at his recent stun ning defeat for the U.S. presi dency at the hands of those over twenty who could vote, "he has turned to the Youth of America, in the pattern of Moses. All twenty and over in Moses' day refused to go to the Promised Land, and he turned to those under twenty." Would Be King The Bishop did not mention a" Promised Land of his own, but it is assumed that such a place would include himself as king. 0 V -AT s ? AS Jit : i t . " f-'i if1 !: ; . -- . ....-I-- j I;, 1 An article in the "Church of God," periodical of his church, stated April 1 that "Bishop Tomlinson conducted a vigorous campaign to be elected U.S. President in 1960, with extend ed speaking trips reaching all fifty states, and saying that his election would be a miracle. such as brought Daniel to the Presidency in Babylon. He had said, a year before the election day, that the miracle might be that the can didates of the two parties should be so close as to make him eligible for election by the House of Representatives."" Tomlinson is editor of the periodical in which this unful filled statement appeared. In the same issue of this "Church of God" periodical, Tomlinson proclaimed Peace on Earth. He is expected to pro claim Peace on the University of North Carolina. If i iiff ii King of World Bishop Homer A. Tomlin son arrives as World King at Quito, Ecuador. 3,000 Univer sity of Quito students formed a parade from the airport; 20,000 were assembled for the "coronation" in Public Square. 600 attended his "Coronation" in Red Square, Moscow, as he preached io them in Russian SHE'S WOMAN ENOUGH HARTFORD, Conn. (UPI) Harold Rawlings, 45, got into an argument with Catherine R. Nichols, 38, at her home early Saturday. They argued about whether she stayed up too late at night. One thing led to another, and she threatened to stab Nichols. "You're not man enough," he said. "No, but I'm woman enough," she retorted. Rawlings was taken to a hos pital a short time later with a paring knife wound in the stomach. HEAVY HAUL MARION, Ind.
