ENTERPRISE SAILS AWAY
(N.Z.P.A.-Reuter —Copyright) SASEBO, (Japan), Jan. 23. The United States carrier Enterprise quietly steamed out of the Japanese port of Sasebo today, its complement of officers and men oblivious to the thousands of Japanese Leftists who had demonstrated for four days in protest against the carrier’s courtesy visit. The nuclear-powered vessel is bound for South-East Asian waters and the Vietnam war. An angry mob of 3000 Japanese surrounded a dozen taxis carrying American sailors back to the ship from shore leave yesterday, beat on the vehicles with their fists and rocks and shouted slogans.
