Sixth Nione 2-2528 Yuba Residents Celebrate Christmas In February YUBA CITY, Calif. (UP) Seven year old Stewart Stanton, his eyes shining, cheered as loud as the rest of them when it was an nounced that Santa Claus would put In an appearance here tomor row. Little Stewart, like thousands of other tots in Yuba City and Marys- Brazil Troops Retake Town RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil Wl His air power reduced to one C47, the leader of Brazil's sputtering Jungle revolt was reported fleeing today. Word spread that the be leaguered Amazon River town of Santnrem was back in loyal hands. Air force officials said the sud den break came after government planes, in their first blow of the 12-day revolt, strafed the rebel held airport at Santarem. The air force announcement said the rebel leader, Ma). Haroldo Ve loso, fled 'to Jacare-Acanga, a jun gle emergency air field 160 miles south of Santarem, and that loyal air and ground troops he had held prisoner retook the city of 15,000. The government said its planes destroyed on the ground a Beech- craft trainer reportedly loaded with bombs lor an attack on a troop ship heading, up the Amazon.. Veloso had fled In this plane from Rio de Janeiro Feb. 11 to lAunch his revolt. Authorities said the strafing left Veloso with only a C47 transport In his "air force." Many of. Santarem's residents were reported pouring out of the city as government forces ad vanced. It was not yet known whether Veloso's small rebel band, said to include three dissi dent air force officers and about 30 men, had fled with him. The steamer President Vargas meanwhile moved toward San tarem with troops, antiaircraft weapons and smalt cannon. The troops had orders to take the city without bloodshed if possible, oth erwise "at any cost." ville, didn't get to see Santa on his regular run. Their towns were evacuated and the Christmas pres ents of many were swept away on roof-high flood waters. Stewart, a second-g r a d e r entered the high school auditorium here last night from a driving rain. Then his face lit up and he Joined with 800 other youngsters in a carnival atmosphere. There was a free circus and vaudeville acts. President Eisenhower sent Christmas greetings, and Gov. Goodwin J, Knight announced he would tour the flood area tomor row with Santa Claus, dropping In at random at the homes of youngsters. That was when the big cheer went up. Santa Claus also will appear Saturday to pass out gifts donated from all over the state. A plane load from Alameda Naval Air Station was due to arrive today, and another load of gifts was scheduled to come from Southern California Lions Clubs. The celebration of Christmas in February was building up mo mentum despite an almost steady downpour and a threat of another flood. But the Weather Bureau pre dicted some clearing for today at least enough so SAnta won't have to worry about finding his way through the storm. Yesterday looked darkest. A ferris wheel stood dripping and deserted in downtown Yuba City. A colorful tent planned to house last night's circus was ripped by winds and taken down. Merchants who remained open for "Christ mas shopping" stood glum in nearly deserted stores. The rain slackened last night during the circus and "street dance" that had to be held In the auditorium, while the ominous Feather River crested upstream. Officials said, however, that the crest here today would probably be about 10 feet below the danger level. The Weather Bureau predicted no . general improvement until about Friday night, but that's soon enough for the kids of Yuba City and Marysvllle because Saturday is Christmas for them.
