A story by one ol the newspaper's staff member! said
the pullback would appear a concession o the Communists
in the Cuban crisis, but that in fact it would be "a simple
military removal ot a weapon system that has become ob

for the removal ol weapons were made before the Cuban

21 Persons Known
To Escape Guards
Since Saturday
Berlin -IUPH- Five East Ger
mans fled to West Berlin un
der cover of fog and darkness
today. Communist border
guards fired bullets and flares
presumably to stop the escape
of others.
The escape routes were not
disclosed. It raised to 21 the
number of known escapers
since Saturday, an unusually
large exodus.
West Berlin police reported
four shots were fired, coupled
with shouts of "stop, come
back on the French sector
Frohnau District border at
1 a.m.
It was not known whether
refugees were wounded in the
shooting or arrested because
observation was impossible in
dense fog.
Twenty minutes earlier
Communist guards fired two
rounds from a submachine
gun and one flare on the
French sector's Wedding Dis
trict border.
An hour before midnight a
shot and five flares were shot
in the American sector's Neu
koclln District border.
On Nov. 27, 1958, Soviet
Premier Nikita Khrushchev
told the Western Allies to get
out of West Berlin within six
months.
The fourth anniversary of
that declaration passed today
with the Americans, British
and French troops still en
trenched in their West Berlin
outpost, 110 miles deep in
Communist territory.
The anniversary was
marked only by continued
Western determination, under
lined by the tough American
stand on Cuba, to protect this
city in the future as they have
in the past.
By chance, Gen. Lyman L.
Lcmnitzer, commander of U.S.
forces in Europe, was in Ber
lin for the anniversary. He
came here Monday irom nis
Paris headquarters on a 24-
hour visit to "determine the
needs" of the 6,500-man U.S.
garrison.
West Berlin Mayor Willy
Brandt told Lcmnitzer Mon
day at a meeting at City Hall,
"on the basis of Western guar
antees and our people's de
termination we will be able
to survive."
The anniversary was not
marked by any formal observ
ance. It passed almost un
noticed. This in Itself was con
sidered a sign that the appre
hension that gripped the city
four years ago has faded.

- IUPII - Somewhere in the vast
Atlantic Ocean Is a clue to
the disappearance of eight
brave men who tried to dupli
cate Columbus' great voyage
of discovery to the New
World.
On Oct. 10, (he men-including
one American - set sail
for the West Indies in the
"Nina," a replica of the small
est of three ships Columbus
took on his voyage in 1492.
They hoped to make the
trip in the 26 days it took
Columbus. But they loaded
provisions for up to 45 days,
in case of trouble.
That was 47 days ago. The
tiny 39-foot caravel was last
seen on Oct. 12, the day after
it left Las Palmas, barely out
of sight of land 25 miles west
of here.
Since then, there has been
no sign of the little craft with
its ancient square sails.
The United States Coast
Guard is scouring the general
area off the Virgin Islands
where the "Nina II" should be
if it is still afloat. Heavy
storms whipped the area last
week. '
The courage of the eight
men of the "Nina II" coin
pared with that of the 18 un
der Vicente Yanez Pinson who
sailed with Columbus and
were the first of the expedi
tion to sight the West Indies.
Under Spanish navy Lt.
Carlos Etayo, the modern voy
agers ignored the advantages
of modern sailing to put out
a ship which carried no
instruments except a 15th Cen
tury wooden sextant and a
simple compass like those
used in Columbus' day.
The ship was held together
by wooden pegs and had no
radio, no electricity and no
auxiliary motor. As nearly as
possible, its trip was to dupli
cate the conditions of the ex
pedition of 1492.
With skipper Etayo - on
leave from the Spanish navy
seven other crew members.
They included American
Robert Marx, a marine arche
ologist and writer from Los
Angeles; Antonio Sgaseta, a
Spanish Roman Catholic
priest, and Antonio Bedoya, a
69-year-old Spanish fisherman.
