Cubans sail Tornadoes ravage South, West fearful of flooding
to preserve
bay landing
MIAMI (UPI)- A force of
about BO Cuban exiles set off
for their homeland in two
fishing boats early Wed-
nesday in the hope of
establishing a peaceful
beachhead at the U.S. Naval
Base at Guantanamo.
Observers said about half
of the exiles were clad in
camouflage “bush fatigues,”
w ore berets and pistol belts,
but were unarmed.
The voyage, which will
take three days, is sponsored
by Cubans United.
Watergate burglar Frank
Sturgis is military adviser to
the group.
The exiles sailed down the
Miami River aboard the 50-
foot La Esperanza and the
45-foot Gold Star and cleared
the mouth of the river
shortly before 2 a.m. EDT
Wednesday. More boats
were scheduled to leave later
Wednesday.
The trip was not sanc-
tioned by the UJS. Navy, and
there has been no contact
with the U.S. government so
far, said Wilfredo Navarro,
secretary general of Cubans
United.
Navarro said the group
was unarmed because it
wanted to make certain it
remained within “the United
States law.”
Navarro has expressed
fears the UJS. intends to
hand Guantanamo back to
the Castro government in
exchange for an agreement
to take back undesirables
sent to the United States
during last year's Mariel
sealift.
“If they want to give it to
the Communists, we say
we’ll take the base for a free
Cuba,” said Navarro.

A cold front pushed
thunderstorms across the
West into the lower
Mississippi Valley today,
prompting flash hood ad-
visories and leaving more
than 3 inches of rain in the
South. A tornado toppled a
construction trailer and
injured two men in
Louisiana.
Tornadoes were also
sighted in Birmingham,
Aia., and about a miles east
of Tampa, Fla.
The Carolinas were hit
with more than 3 inches of
rain Tuesday. About 3V«
inches fell in Goldsboro,
N.C., and about 2 inches
soaked Florence, S.C.
A twister touched down in
a I arose, La., shipbuilding
yard on the Intercoastal
Waterway, injuring Milton
Maples, 21, of Lockport, and
Nolan Martin, 40, of
Raceland, who were
reported in stable condition
Tuesday at Lady of the Sea
Hospital in Galliano.
The men were on a scaf-
fold that was located at the
rear of the construction
trailer. High winds over-
turned the trailer and pushed
it 20 feet from its original
site.
A tornado touched down in
Birmingham, Ala., and high
winds unroofed a house, offi-
cials said. More than 2 in-
ches of rain drenched the
area. No injuries were
reported.
Thunderstorms dumped
about an inch of rain on
Albuquerque, N. M. Heavy
rains also fell in southeast
New Mexico, with street
flooding at Hobbs and
Lovington. Some flooding
was also reported at Torrey,
Utah, west of the Capitol
Reef National Park.
Flash flood watches were
posted late Tuesday over
southern Utah, northern
Arizona and portions of
southwest Texas. Flash flood
warnings were also issued
for several counties in south-
central Utah.
Flash floods and high
winds ripped through small
communities 40 miles nor-
theast of Las Vegas Monday
night, forcing about 700
people to flee their homes
and closing major highways.
Authorities said there were
no deaths and only a few
reported injuries.

Oriental fly
not as tough
as Medfly
By United Press Inter
national
Because of its amorous
nature, the crop-killing
Oriental fruit fly should be
less troublesome to
eradicate than the
Mediterranean fruit fly,
which has defied a month of
pesticide attacks and inched
closer to California's
agricultural heartland.
Florida’s efforts to fight its
JBedfly outbreak have been
stymied two consecutive
days by helicopter failures,
but officials hoped to spray
today with a converted
mosquitospraying helico-
pter.
Southern California's
plague of Oriental flies is
second only to the Medfly in
crop-killing capability, but
they are much more easily
lured to poison traps,
agricultural officials said.
“We put a small quantity
of sex attractant combined
with insecticide on tree
trunks and utility poles and
when they come in to in-
vestigate the smell the in-
secticide kills them,” said
John Manning, chief deputy
Los Angeles County
agricultural commissioner.
The males should be killed
off in a few weeks, after
which the females will die of
old aee
“What we’re dealing with
here are very homy flies,"
said one agricultural official.
The Oriental fruit fly,
which has frequently been a
problem in southern
California, probably will not
require aerial spraying,
Manning said.
“This is a little different
beast than the
Mediterranean fruit fly. We
have better tools right now —
a better lure than for the
Medfly — and we’re hopeful
that our efforts on the ground
will be as successful as in the
past.”
Father of four genius
daughters says early
training was reason
NEW CONCORD, Ohio
(UPI) — The father of four
daughters — all with genius-
level IQs — says anybody
can have brilliant children.
Just avoid drugs and alcohol,
start intensive schooling at 6
months old and look for
innovative educators.
Joseph Susedik, 60, a
retired machinist with no
high school diploma, says he
and his Japanese wife, a
former English teacher in
her native Tokyo, began
preparing to raise intelligent
children even before their
first was born.
“We were busy picking out
different types of books and
finding out about methods of
teaching and different
games," he said by phone
Tuesday.
The Susediks must have
done something right.
Susan, 10, enters
Muskingum College this fall.
She wants to be a doctor, a
space scientist and a
physicist. Not one or the
other — but all three.
Her sister, Stacey, 8, takes
classes with sixth and
seventh graders. Stephanie,
6, works with fifth and sixth
graders. Johanna, 5, isn’t in
school yet, but she tests at
the third-grade level, her
proud parents say.
Intelligence tests on
Stacey and Stephanie show
they have IQs above 150,
while Susan’s is above 160.
It was just 10 years ago
that Susedik took his
screaming daughter, Susan,
from the delivery room
: nurse, cooed "You’re so
pretty and I love you,” and
watched her tears turn into a
grin.
He says he knew then she
was smart.
At 6 months, Susan — and
later her younger sisters —
began an organized learning
program under their
mother’s tutelage. First they
learned to count their
fingers.
NEW ORLEANS (UPI) -
The Reagan administration
plans to ease prison over-
crowding by reopening old
military bases and using
them as penal facilities.
White House Counselor
Edwin Meese, calling prison
crowding the most pressing
criminal justice problem,
unveiled the proposal
Tuesday in a speech to the
American Bar Association
annual convention.
Meese said officials have
been surveying lists of
“unused lands of the federal
government” that might be
appropriate sites for con-
struction of new state and
local prisons.
‘ ‘The secretary of defense
(Caspar Weinberger) is now
inventorying all of the
unused military installations
about the country, to see
what facilities there might
be made available to state
and local governments,” he
Bandit
bungles
the job
GRAND RAPIDS, Mich.
(UPI) — A bungling bandit
had trouble getting in the
bank, couldn’t convince the
teller he wanted to rob the
place and tripped during his
getaway, spilling the loot.
But he was still on the
loose Tuesday.
Police thought they had
the man who stumbled his
way through a robbery at an
Old Kent Bank and Trust Co.
branch Monday, but the
suspect was set free after
bank employees failed to
identify him in a lineup.
Witnesses were divided on
their description of the man
but all agreed it was a case
for the Keystone Kops.
One witness said the thief
“had trouble getting into the
bank because he kept trying
to push the doors in and they
only open outwards.” A
teller didn’t understand his
request for her to put money
in his grocery bag —
probably because he had a
sweatshirt pulled over his
head.

said.
“We have already found
fully developed prison
facilities — fully developed
military jails which are
unused at the present time
which we hope to make
available to state and local
governments to relieve some
of the overcrowding” in state
prisons and local jails.
The proposal comes at a
time when rapidly ex-
panding numbers of inmates
are forcing prison ad-
ministrators in many states
to house two and even three
prisoners in cells designed
for one.
in a policy that may have
been sparked by the March
30 attempted assassination
of President Reagan, Meese
pledged the administration
will step up enforcement of
federal firearm crimes —
specifically promising there
will be tougher prosecution
of people caught carrying
guns in airports.
John Hinckley, the man
accused of shooting the
president, was apprehended
with firearms in the Nash-
ville airport several months
before he allegedly shot
Reagan, but was allowed to
post bail, which he forfeited.
