■Chile
SANTIAGO, Chile (^—“Wel
come Fidel” signs blossomed on
wa lls and buildings Tuesday as
Chile’s leftist government pre
pared a hero’s welcome for Prime
Minister Fidel Castro on his first
tr ip to South America in more
than a decade.
On the eve of the Cuban lead
er’s arrival, Chile’s Marxist pres
ident announced that the Chilean
government has decided to re
negotiate its foreign debt, includ

government prepares hero’s welcome for Fidel Castro
ing $1 billion owed to the United
States.
This means Chile is unable to
keep up its present schedule of
repaying what it owes.
1 resident Salvador Allende
went on national radio to make
his announcement. He blamed
previous Chilean governments
for the predicament.
Castro comes here today at
the invitation of Allende, a close
friend. The visit is to last 10 days
and Castro will go from the north
ern desert to the southern fjords
and trout-filled lakes of this long
and narrow South American na
tion.
It will be the first trip to a
Latin-American country for the
45-year-old Castro since 1959 and
his first trip anywhere outside
Cuba since 1964, when he went
to Moscow.
Chile’s Popular Unity coali
tion government, which includes
Communists and Socialists, and
the Castro regime have been
basking in the warmth of Marxist
friendship since the 63-year-old
Allende was inaugurated Nov. 3,
1970.
Allende, a frequent visitor to
Cuba before he became the first
democratically elected Marxist
president in the Western Hemi
sphere, established diplomatic re
lations with Cuba on Nov. 12,
1970.
Since then, both countries have
instituted cultral and sports ex
changes and signed trade pacts
totaling $12 million a year, most
ly in barter agreements.
Many of Allende’s left-wing
supporters look to the Castro
regime as a model for Chile’s
government. A number of his ad
ministration officials have work
ed in Cuba to learn how the Cas
tro government operates.
Communist and Socialist youth
work parties, in paint-stained
jumpsuits and plastic hardhats,
were busy Tuesday morning put
ting the final touches to brightly
colored wall murals and welcome
signs under sunny springtime
skies.
Other youth groups painted
“Welcome Fidel” signs along the
brick walls linking the highway
linking the capital with Pudahuel
International Airport in rolling
farmland near the foothills of

The government newspaper La
Nacion said, in a reference to
single stars on the Chilean and
Cuban flags: “Now the two stars
are not alone.”
But not all Chileans seemed
anxious for Castro to visit Chile.
The conservative newspaper La
Tribuna which refers to him as
a “tyrant” or “the jackal of the
Caribbean,” said “True Chileans
repudiate the visit.”
Drill Team

at Fish game
The Fish Drill Team will march
at halftime Thursday at the
A&M Fish-Texas Tech Picador
football game on Kyle Field.
The seven-minute performance
will be the team’s second for pub
lic view and an important step
toward defense of the National
Intercollegiate ROTC Drill Cham
pionship won in Washington last
April by the 1970-71 team.
Commander Mark Roberts of
Fort Hood led the 27-cadet team
in its first exhibition Saturday
during the march-in to the A&M-
SMU game.
“The team will do pretty much
the sequence to be used at the
Houston competition Dec. 4,”
commented Louis Ullrich, senior
advisor of San Antonio.
