FOX SANTO DOMINGO (UPI)-H Is an unusual sensation to march through the rebel section of this city with a mob brandishing rifles and submachine guns chanting "Yankee gel out of Santo Domingo." Armed rebels looked al me suspiciously because was not chanting.
Like dozens of olher newsmen and photographers, we had driven into Die rebel none. In our white Volkswagen were Martin McReynolds, UPI Caribbean correspondent; Hugo Wesscls, UPI photographer; Dominican driver Lionel Silfa and myself. As we drove up to the rebel headtjualers in an isolated ppckel of Ihe cily, Col. Francisco Caamano Deno and his right hand man, Hector Arisly, emerged. They were surrounded by Caamano's bodyguards.

Thunderstorms raked Dallas and Fort Worth today and the weather bureau warned tornadoes could be expected in a broad band stretching across the state's central portion. Six or more tornadoes were seen in western Texas Thursday night.
Other twisters destroyed several buildings in western Oklahoma and dipped down in the I Nebraska Panhandle. No in- juries were reported. I The Wichita wind funnel tipped two trailers in a mobile home court, ripped the roof of a school, smashed windows and tore roofs from several homes and damaged a tavern. The tornado hit during a downpour which dumped nearly two inches of rain in six hours. A 76-year-old man suffered a tigue type uniform.
El Presidenle (rebel version) had decided to pay a call on the wounded in a nearby Catholic hospital and to lake a triumphal stroll through the bullet pocked street, bucking up the populace. Aristy along. i SANTO DOMINGO (UPI) New fighting in Santo Domingo, including the government air strike which silenced the rebel radio Thursday, dampened hopes today for early settlement of the Dominican crisis. Five propeller driven P51 fighters, firing machine guns and possibly rockets, knocked out the rebel radio transmitter about 2 p.m. Thursday.
The area attacked was near the U.S. Embassy and the American-held supply corridor through Santo Domingo. A State Dcparttnenl spokesman said the planes strafed one U.S.-held position near tlie embassy, apparently by accident, but there was no report of U.S. casualties in the air attack. Two Killed Two U.
S. Army security agents were shot and kilted by Ihe rebels in an earlier, unrelated incident, increasing total Col. Francisco Caamano Deno casualties here to 20 dead. At least two Dominicans were reported killed and three wounded in the strafing. Bullets fired by the P.51s narrowly missed a jeep and a military bus in the supply corridor.

He wore no decorations and no bars or insignia indicating his rank. In the hospital Caamano bent over the beds of the wounded rebels, held their hands and spoke soflly to them.
