U.S. NAVAL BASE VIPLFNT FARTH0W[AKE RATTLES PARTS OF PERII GUANTANAMO BAY, CUBA LIMA, Peru (AP)--A violent earthquake rattled the central and southern part of Peru for almost two min- utes yesterday, causing damage and much panic. Official reports, however, said casualties were "slight." No official figures were made public immediately. A government report radioed to Lima, the capital of Peru, said three persons were killed in the town of Canete and another 65 were injured. Canete, with a population of 15,000, is located about 112 miles south and bore the brunt of the shake. The government's radio network claimed there were no casualties in Lima. But the Civil Defense organization, I Friday, October 4, 1974 also controlled by the state, said there were casual- ties but refused to disclose figures immediately. "We cannot give figures of cas- ualties over the telephone," a Civil Defense spokesman said.
