Died. Celia Guevara, 58, mother of Che, Fidel Castro's Argentine-born jack-of-all-subversion, a screeching Communist fanatic who raised her nino on Marxist dogma but never had the influence she wanted until her son's rise to power in Cuba, after which she traveled the hemisphere as a Communist Front organizer clad in leather jacket and Basque beret, and forever sporting a pistol-even when she sat down to dinner; of cancer; in Buenos Aires...
...Another Fidel? Thus, late last week, the Dominican Republic got a loyalist government that could assert its right to govern against the claims of the so-called "constitutionalist" government of Rebel Colonel Francisco Caamaño Deñó, 32, the officer who triggered the revolt on April 24. Caamaño's political background is murky. He is quarrelsome, opportunistic, a plotter who, in the words of one U.S. official, "has the potential of becoming another Fidel Castro." His father, Lieut.

The 1962 missile confrontation may have taken Russian IRBMs out of Cuba?or so the U.S. believes?but it did nothing to halt Castro's campaign of subversion around the hemisphere. According to U.S. intelligence, Cuban training schools turn out more than 1,500 American graduates each year as guerrilla cadres. Venezuela's army has been chasing them through the interior without notable success. Colombia's even more expert army no sooner cleaned out the country's bandits than a pair of Castro-style guerrilla bands cropped...
