Coca Cola frequently sells for a dime. Kites are made out of plastic. Detroit boasts that Its cars are smaller, narrower, and short er, with less horsepower to boot. And now comes the National Geogruphic Magazine, after a steadfast half century, with a beautiful girl on its cover. And in a bathing suit, yet. She has just popped out of the ocean off Oahu, Hawaii, with a double hand ful of sea urchins. Well, as far as the National Geographic is concerned, said Dr. Melville Bell Grosvenor, presi dent and editor, who put the girl on the cover, it won't. He has additional improvements in pros pect.

He said the familiar magazine of the National Geoirraphic Soci y. with the Bali belles, waving palms and other fascinatiiiR futina and flora inside, has been evolv ing little by little right through the years. It'g been done so grad ually, we just haven't noticed. Maybe so, but one thing is sure. Dentists' offices hereafter won't be the same, although of course it will be several months before they catch up to the current edi tions. Let it be said immediately, to avoid undue alarm among the so ciety's 2.500.0O0 members, that the gold border and leuf design that have marked every geographic cover since 1910 aren't to be al tered. Features Colored Photos But where the central cover confined itself formerly to a list ing of titles like "searching for cliff dwellers' secrets," it now will feature each month a timely topic in pictorial color. "Whoop ing cranes fight for survival," and the rest of the table of contents, still will be there, but squeezed upward or down to make room for the art.

He him self is a uteran of -33 years'- so ciety service. He got the idea for cover pictures after sifting in vain through a stack of geograph ies looking for a particular issue. Wit h the board of trustees, Dr. Grosvenor pondered for months before making the change. In Ap ril, they took the first slep, quiet ly removing from the time-honored cover a ruled line that traced the inner edge of the border.

"The reaction was marvelous," the editor said. "It was 99 and nine-tenths per cent favorable. I believe there was one member in England ho complained. He said we didn't need any change.'' Fidel Scares, Sees Ghost Of Old Revolution Tactics By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Staff Writer Cuban Premier Fidel Castro may see a frightening sameness in the mounting revolt against his own regime and the manner in which he finally toppled the dic tatorship of President Fulgencio Batista. Castro's revolutionary forces, unable to meet the Cuban army in pitched battle, employed hit run tactics which in the long run proved even more effective. They struck at the sugar crops and by terrorism discouraged Cu ba's tourist trade, the two to gether being Cuba's primary sources of income. And finally, as they gained strength in the closing days of the revolution last December, they managed to cut Cuba in two. sep arating the capital of Havana from Oriente Province and the sugar-producing southeastern end of the island. It was that final success that convinced Batista it was time to flee. He left Cuba on New Year's morning not quite 10 months ago. At least three revolutionary groups participated in the revolt against Batista, among whom Cas tro emerged the strongest. Sam Pattern Today The same pattern exists today, with widespread but apparently unorganized attacks by any num ber of groups with their own rea sons for hating the dictatorship which Castro stnier-imposed on the wreckage of the one he de stroyed. Now, as then, revolutionary forces are striking at the sugar industry and at tourism. Sugar refineries have been hit. and it was scarcely by accident that the airplane leaflet raid over Havana Wednesday night coincided with a convention of some 2.000 mem bers of the American Society of Travel Agents. The troubles besetting the Cas tro regime were foreseen as early as mid summer. Castro - promulgates decrees had thrown the country into total economic chaos. Many Jobless The agrarian reform law paral yzed cane, tobacco and rice plantings. Half of Cuba's two-million- man working force was jobless. New building construction was at a standstill. About 20,000 former soldiers of the Batista re gime had nothing to do but stew in their own bitterness. ' And as economic paralysis spread across Cuba and unrest mcunted, Castro appeared to have only two answers. The one consisted of various grandiose proposals wherein the chief bill would b? borne by the United States. Once it was sug gested the U. S. should up its Cuban sugar quota by more than two million tons annually. An other suggestion was that the United States set up a 30-billion dollar fund to be spent in the next 10 years on Latin American development. Hits American Investments These, at the same time that Castro was striking heavy blows at American private investment in Cuba, and rejecting all U.S. inquiries as to recompense. As for any man or group who opposed Ccstro at home, he had but one description for them "traitor." Among them have been three men formerly high in Castro councils former President Man uel Urrutia Lleo. former chief of the air force. Maj. Pedro L. Diaz Lanz. and Maj. Hubert Matos. former hero of the revolution woo was relieved of his command of a Camaguey garrison atid placed under arrest Wednesday. It is noteworthy that all three men accused the government of being Communist-infiltrated.
