Latin Defense Chiefs' Topic McNamara Meets Caribbean Brass By ELTON C. FAY WASHINGTON (AP)-Military means to help Latin-American na tions ward off Cuban communism presumably had high priority 'in the Panama Canal Zone conference Saturday between Pentagon officials and U.S. military chiefs in the Caribbean area. The intensive, one-day confer ence brought together Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara Deputy Secretary Roswell Gilpat- ric.

Assistant Secretary Paul Nitze, Gen. Lyman L. Lemnitzer, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and Adm. Claude V. Rick-etts, vice chief of naval operations, with Gen.

Andrew O'Mears, head of the Unified Caribbean Command. The session had been planned for several weeks as a continuation of similar meetings with" other area commanders. But by coincidence Saturday's Panama session came hard on the heels of the Punta del Este foreign ministers' gathering at which Cuba was read out of the Organization of American States. And as the Panama meeting was under way, the White House announced a complete embargo on imports from Prime Minister Fidel Castro's country. These two actions were designed to bolster the campaign to curb Castroism by diplomatic methods.

Secretary of State Dean Rusk called it an effort to defeat subversion before it leads to military action. However, beyond that remains the menace of Communist attempts to augment subversion by sending Red "liberation" forces to overthrow governments of some of the smaller nations. This threat has been aggravated by the mounting arsenal of Russian-made weapons being poured into Cuba. The U.S. Navy normally has a dozen or more warships operating in the Caribbean, most of them at work on routine training in a area extending south and east of Guantanamo Bay, Cuba toward the Antilles.

Ships there usually included a carrier, a number of destroyers, an occasional cruiser or submarine. www As concern over Cuban inter vention in affairs of her neighbors has mounted, it has been necessary to step up patrol operations. These surface and air patrols, so far as is known, are purely for observation to inform interested countries of any suspicious movements of shipping or aircraft in their direction. Unless there were a call for direct support from a threatened nation, no shooting would be expected. The U.S.

Air Force has bases in the Panama Canal Zone and in Puerto Rico from which observation patrols also can be made. head, of Montgomery City, Funeral services wftl be Monday at 2 p.m, in the Gilbert Chapel in Dixon. Burial will be in Dixon Cemetery. OLIVER T. HOOK Oliver T.

(AP) Boys- nnr air usual answer ine ran i 1 1. of the sea. But Agatha Johnson, 23, is the exception. The blonde, bjue-eyed lass always wanted to see the sea. "And oh boy, have I seen it," she said, Saturday.

Last year and 30,000 miles ago the California college student interrupted a trip from San Francisco to New York to sign on a Norwegian ship at New Orleans as a mess boy. Since then she has seen the Coral Sea, the South China Sea the Sea of Japan and a lot of ocean between. "Now I just want to see a bit of land for a change," she said with a sigh. Her ship, the SS Gisna, is docked in Houston. The next stop is New Orleans and the end of Agatha's wandering for a while.

"I've got to go back to school, she said, "apart from the fact I can't take 'any more seascape." Someone suggested "it might be good fun to work on a ship and see the world," she said, "so I signed on as a mess boy." That means she waits tables in the junior officers' mess. And it means she has had some memorable experiences. "I ran into a number of very romantically-inclined young men," she said. "One individual tried to get in through the porthole of my cabin by sliding down a rope from the deck," she said. "He might have killed himself.

"And I had a dreadful job getting rid of him," she said. Agatha had only one girl companion during her voyage Liv Lindquist, the young wife of the ship's first mate. Agatha's mother and three Barrymorejr. Too Jealous? ROME (AP')-Gabriella (Gaby) Palazzolo, estranged wife of American movie actor John Barry-more said Saturday their marriage failed because of "my husband's jealousy." The bearded Barrymore said in Hollywood Friday he expects to file suit in the United States for divorce and signed legal separation papers before leaving Italy two days ago. While Barrymore said, "There is no chance of a reconciliation," his Italian wife said she still hoped for a reconciliation.

They were married in Rome Oct. 28, 1960. Gaby said she and her husband exchanged rough words a few weeks ago. "It was because of his jealousy," she said. "He said such rough words to me that I left him and returned to my parents.

I was expecting him to apologize, but he never did. So, we decided to seek a legal separation." Although separation papers were signed, she said, they have not been filed in court. "I would rather wait for him to return," she said. "Then, we can decide definitely." Gaby said she is expecting a baby in August.
