The government suspended all criminal courts, regarded as a symbol of the fallen dictatorship of President Fulgencio Batista, and was reported preparing a de cree abolishing all political par ties. The provisional regime dismiss ed all provincial governors, inayors and councilmen. Apparently their functions will be taken over by new civilian appointees prepared in advance for the task. Other decrees, informed sources said, would ban all candidates in the 1954 and 1958 elections from Cuba's political life, freeze the private bank accounts of all Ba tista officials, and stop the cashing of all outstanding checks against the Batista regime. Revolutionary courts were re ported being prepared to try Ba tista, now in exile in the Domini can Republic, and other officials who may be accused of crimes during his rule.

Neelley has been ap pointed supervisor of the Fan Testing Services operated by the Texas Engineering Experiment Station, Dr. Aaron Rose, director of the TEES, said yesterday. Neelley is a mechanical engi neering graduate of A&M and has been asspciated with the fan test ing and research program of the station for the past three years. He has had a part in the planning and designing of the modern fan testing laboratories of the station that are serving the needs of in dustry. The laboratories are equipped with four modern plenum cham bers for axial-flow fan testing and recently added facilities for centri- fugal fan testing, Rose said. gave talks on problems of the day and conflicts around the world. “Men and Women of the 20th Cen tury,” “Interracial Relationships,” “World Community” and “Work and Vocation” were the discussion topics for the sectional meetings. Rob Coffman, Dick McGlaun, Bill Shenkir, David Wallace and Jimmy Wolfe of A&M proposed that an “evaluation and study be made of the effectiveness of in tegration of student YMCA into general YMCA.” The group also felt there was a need to “study and evaluate the effectiveness and operation of the YM-YWCA staffs and structure of student movement and lines of communication on national, region al and local levels. The trip was made by chartered bus and was financed by the “Y” candy sale and by individuals themselves. Students making the trip were Bobby Bennett, Mike Bozart, Coffman, Bob Compton, Jim Crouch, Alton Fischer, Spen cer Hodge, Curtis May, Malcolm Maxwell, McGlaun, Billy Phillips, Roger Ratliff, Shenkir, Paul Van Nieuwenhuize, Wallace and Wolfe. J. Gordon Gay, coordinator of religious life, and Carl Zietlow, as sociate secretary, YMCA, accom panied the students on the trip. William Rogers said Tuesday Ba tista would not be granted asy lum in the United States if he sought it. Batista is now in the Domini can Republic. “There seems to be no question about any physical danger to Ba tista in the Dominican Republic,” Rogers told newsmen. Rogers noted that U.S. grants of asylum always involved a show ing that the person seeking en try would be in physical danger if he remained where he was. The initial policies of the new government were being shaped as Fidel Castro, the rebel leader who shoved Provisional President Man uel Urrutia to power, was still plodding through adoring throngs toward the capital. It was doubt ful he would reach Havana today as planned. The decree abolishing Congress said the Urrutia government could rule by ministerial decree until free elections were held. Urrutia has announced that these would be held in 18 to 20 months. ‘Gas ’Scientist To Speak At Grad Lecture “Ion-Molecule Reactions in the Gas Phase” will be the subject of a graduate lecture by Dr. J. L. Franklin tonight in the Physics Lecture Room. Franklin is a research associate for the Reseai-ch and Development Division of Humble Oil and Re fining Co., Baytown. Franklin and co-workers have major advances in the study of ionic reactions in the gas phase by the use of mass spectrometry techniques. These studies aid in understanding the complex crack ing and reforming operations of a modern refinery. The bottom of oceans are often j rugged rather than flat.
