...Lieut. General Henrique Teixeira Lott, 61, leader of last week's revolt. In recent months War Minister Lott had emerged as the army's sturdiest opponent of the faction called golpistas-the military and civilian leaders who favor a golpe (coup) to keep middle-roading President-elect Juscelino Kubitschek (TIME, Oct. 17 et ante) from taking office next January...

But rumors were louder than ever in Rio last week that the officers would postpone the election unless their man seems likely...
