By ZELL RABIN Herald Tribune News Service NEW YORK Six weeks after the rebel invasion fiasco, Castro's Cuba still resembles an armed camp suffering from invasion jit4 ters. There docs not seem to be a single person on the anxious island who is not convinced that another attack is on the way; a view which the government controlled press and television does everything to encourage. Heavy artillery is being installed along Havana's coastline and at night Russian tanks and Czech trucks filled with troops rumble along the city's Malecon nrive.

Militia men, many of them weik, a hammer and sickle badge on shirt or cap feverishly dig trenches to accompaniment of loud martial music.
