A year after Castro came to power, he gave the Red Chinese their first (and so far only) embassy in Latin America. Under Ambassador Wang Yu-ping, 54, a veteran Communist who emerged from the Chinese civil war with the rank of general, the embassy has become a springboard for Chinese subversion in Latin America.

Yujiro is a Japanese giant-5 ft. 10 in., 152 Ibs.-who has starred in 57 films, and is universally known as Yu-Chan. Yu-Chan is an idol in more than the usual sense.

...triumphal arc of laurel branches spanned the main street of the west Algerian city of Tiaret. In the reviewing stand, dissident Vice Premier Ahmed ben Bella listened to the cheers of thousands of Moslem women chanting Yu! Yu! Yu!, then settled back to listen to a round of speeches from his top aides, attempting to justify his bid to overthrow the government of Premier Benyoussef Benkhedda.
