## SECRET

4. Croch Minister PISTORA and his wife were expected at the Soviet Embassy at 1:00 p.m. on 19 September.

5. On 22 September a number of the Czech Legation informed Mariya ZINGTOYNA, Soviet employee, that Minister PESTOPA accepted the invitation to dinner at the Soviet embassy. On the same day BLAZIK arranged to confer with Lev Nikolayevich ZINGTOYNA, First Secretary, concerning the fiesta which was to be held at the Minister's residence, Anores 923, on 29 September. Further information indicated that some forty Soviets were expected to attend the party.

6. On 27 September an appointment was set up for Karel STAROCKY, Counselor of the Czech Legation, to visit the Soviet Ambassador that day.

7. The Czech Legation contacted the Soviet Embassy on 29 September to ask if they had a truck or pick-up that could be used to transport a ping-pong table from the Czech Legation to the Minister's residence for the party that evening. At first PANOV replied that they did not have such a vehicle, but later offered to pick up the table for them in their "truck."

## Microllaneous Diplomatic Relations

2. On 7 September Mrs. (fnu) MAKINETTI of the Italian Embassy thanked KHARTIKOV for the photos he had sent her, and indicated that she and her husband were planning to have a dinner at her home for the people, including GUERKASOV, who had been together in Aguascalientes. (This probably refers to the group who attended the Grape Fair in Aguascalientes in August.)

2. The Indonesian Charge d'Affaires accepted an invitation to a motion picture showing at the Soviet Embassy for 8 September.

3. On 14 September a woman from the Association of Diplomats advised GLOTOV, KAZANTSEV, POPOV, and RCHAOV that the association would meet at 1:30 p.m. on 17 September at the Restaurant 1-2-3. GLOTOV informed her that all would probably attend, and that KAZANTSEV would like a receipt for his association dues.

4. Arrangements were made for Ambassador KULAZHENKOV to receive the Israeli Minister at 12:00 on 17 September, and the Norwegian Charge d'Affaires at 11:45 on 18 September.
