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

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.
