...bread and numberless pounds of fresh fruit, 22,000 bottles of soda pop, 600 bottles of beer and 11,000 bottles of red wine. The marvel was that only ten people fell ill with what the medics called "gastric prostration." "The very quantity," mused Buenos Aires' daily Clarin, "leads one to forget for a moment the notion that 'Argentina is an underdeveloped nation...
...Buenos Aires Museum of Modern Art greeted him at the airport ("Welcome to our great little painter!"). And at the show, Aldo, dressed in corduroy pants and polo shirt, seemed as at ease as an old pro. "This boy is a complete painter!" said the critic of the morning Clarin.

Salta's outspoken El In-transigente found its newsprint supply cut off and so did Buenos Aires' tabloid Clarin. In Cordoba, inspectors found the printing plant of the firmly anti-Peronista Jesuit daily Los Principios "insanitary," and peremptorily padlocked it. This week Los Principios and Clarin had been allowed to resume publication, but a congressional committee closed the Communist daily La Hora, charging it with "anti-Argentine activities...
