Eight Methodist Pastors
Reported Killed in Angola
NEW YORK UT> — Eight Metho
dist pastors have been reported
killed in the month-old civil war
in the Portuguese-African terri
tory of Angola, the Methodist
Board of Missions said Thursday.
The mission said the pastors,
all Africans, “were killed by either
Portuguese civilians or military
forces after hurried trials.”
At least half the denomination’s
150 African pastors in Angola
“are reported either in prison,
have fled with their wives, or
have been killed,” the report said.
“Reports say that many Metho
dist churches and schools have
heen completely destroyed or
hadly damaged,” the board said.

around the 47 or 49 meter band.

in plain Spanish.

U. S. Advisory Group
Arrives in Vientiane
VIENTIANE, Laos UP) — Brig.
Gen. Andrew Jackson Boyle,
commander of the new U. S. Mili
tary and Advisory Group here,
said Wednesday his men will go
wherever necessary — including
to front line action — to advise
the Laotian Army in its critical
fight with pro-Communist rebels.
The changeover from the os
tensibly civilian-run programs
evaluation office to a full-fledged
military advisory group came
with little more fanfare than
Boyle appearing in a crisp khaki
uniform instead of his usual sport
shirt.
Only a few of the 300-man
group turned up wearing uni
forms, which were airlifted in.
The rest had their uniforms at
tailors for alterations.
“I forgot how to saulte,” one
private said.
Gen. Boyle, a youthful looking
49-year-old West Point graduate
from Culpepper, Va., says he
hopes the impact of the change
over will be more than uniform
deep, and that sight of Americans
in uniform will reassure uneasy
frontline troops of the Laos army.
