...were worth a peseta (less than a cent) and whether the regal Placa de Catalunya really was enhanced by an enormous inflatable M & M. More than a half-century ago, Barcelona, the city of seasoned oppositionists, had been all set to hold the "People's Games," to counter the Hitler Olympics of Berlin. But civil war interceded. Now, as fireworks lighted up the sky above the pulsing stadium and competitors consulted Video Tarot screens in the glittering subway stations, prospects all round seemed bright enough to bring a confident smile even to the face of a grizzled...
