Post given up?
Hong Kong-There were reports Monday that Chinesa
Communist Party Chairman Hua Kuo-feng may hive given
up his post as premier, This possibly is to pave the way for
the return of purged official Teng Hsiao-ping, said China
analysts. In official reports on Hua's reception of Japanese
and West German delegations during the weekend, he was
called only party chairman. On past similar occasions, he
has been identified as premier. Teng's political comeback
has been expected for months. He was purged a year ago
because of his alleged involvement in riots. The first
anniversary of the unrest which occurred during the Ching'
Ming festival in honor of the dead is Tuesday.

Team arrives
Havana, Cuba-A South Dakota college alktar basket
ball team, accompanied by two congressmen, arrived
here Monday to compete with Cuban teams. The
Southern Airways DC-9 arrived at 2:40 pjn. CST and was
greeted by Luis M:ndez Moriono, vice president of the
Cuban National Assembly and a "Welcome" sign printed
across the terminal building in Enslish, Span&a, Russian
and Arabic. The visit, called "basketball diplomacy"
by some, was conceived by Sen. George McGovern,
D-SJX, who suggested the idea when he visited Cuba in
1975. The hope was that the basketball diplomacy could
achieve what ping pong accomplished between China and
the United States.
Palestinian future
Washington-Egyptian President Anwar Sadat, who
arrived Monday for talks with President Carter, stressed
that the central issue in the Middle East is the future of
the Palestinians. "In your recent public statements you
have come very close to the proper remedy," Sadat told
Carter, the first U.S. President to endorse publicly the
concept of a Palestinian "homeland." However, Sadat
said in an arrival ceremony in the White House East
Room. "Whit is needed is establishment of a political
entity in which the Palestinians, at long last, can be a
community of citizens instead of a group of refugees.''
Carter, in low-key welcoming remarks, made no direct
mention of the Palestinians or any other sensitive aspect
of the Arab-Israeli conflict. ' '
No miscalculation
Washington-Secretary of State Cyrus Vance told the
Cabinet Monday that he does not believe "any miscalcula
tion on our part" caused the Soviets to reject the admin
istration's strategic arms limitation proposal. He had
said Sunday that "no one could say that one never makes
any miscalculations." Vance, a State Dept. spokesman and
White House Press Secretary Jody Powell all criticized an
Associated Press report on the secretary's . Sunday

comment. The comment was made as Vance end Presi
dent Carter talked with reporters about the unsuccesful
arms negotiations in Moscow. The - administration
complaints arose over the AP account of this exchange.
