Buol, Stockton, Calif., civil aircraft pilot, as a prisoner of war and are giving him four hours daily "in struction in Communist principles." Knowland" made public a State department letter transmitting a report from the British consulate at Kunming on Buol. This said Buol apparently is getting good treatment. - Buol, a former Marine corps cap tain, was a pilot for the Chinese Civilian Air Transport, formerly operated by Gen. Claire Chennault. He was arrested by Chinese Com munists when his plane went down in Communist territory Feb. 15. The British consulate general at Kunming reported that the Chi' nese said Buol was held "as t prisoner of war and that therefore his American citizenship cannot be recognized." The consul was advised, how ever, that Buol was "receiving the best food available, that he was playing basketball and that he was daily receiving four hours instruc tion in Communist principles." Buol has been permitted to com municate directly with his wife, the British report said. Knowland said also that niae other Americans were being held "for extortion" by the Chinese Communists. He said they were being refused exit visas until they would guarantee life pensions at full wages to former Chinese employes.

One of the football teams came all the way from Dresden in south ern Saxony. The 12 men also brought their wives with them. The players said they objected to the communization of sport in the So viet zone which forced their pri vate club to accept sponsorship from a nationalized industry. Under this system private clubs must wear the colors of a "peo ple's owned" enterprise or face dissolution. The oarsmen had the same complaint.
