Free Labor. In Marxist fashion, Touré has clamped tight central controls on everything in sight. There is a government foreign-trade monopoly, and the state-run cooperatives, which buy farmers' products and sell them finished goods, are slowly pushing private merchants out of business. Each Sunday, workers are induced "voluntarily" to build roads, schools and clinics in a scheme grandly titled "Human Investment," and Touré is working hard to rip up tribal roots and create a Guinea nationalism.

Right inside Johnny Pearce ranges all over the playing area in aggressive fashion, and his inside cohort John O'Keefe gives the Elis a flashy dribbler to loosen enemy defenses...
