Colonel Houari Boumedienne, President Ben Bella's right hand, turned against his friend and boss in a pre-dawn coup and assumed power. Meanwhile, delegates to a pending Afro-Asian conference in Algiers, were in confusion about their scheduled meeting. One delegate remarked that it was like preparing to go to the theatre and not knowing whether anyone had printed tickets yet.
