...predominantly agricultural economy. As a result, Bulgarians have moved off the farms (where 70% of the 8,000,000 population lived just 20 years ago v. 50% today) and into a boomlet of industrialization. To the $838.3 million worth of vegetables, shiny apples, bursting grapes, jams, jellies, butter and milk that Bulgaria exported in 1963 was added a growing stream of batteries, machine tools, pumps, electric hoists, pharmaceuticals and steel products. One of Bulgaria's biggest hard-currency earners is the booming Black Sea resort area at Varna known as "Golden Sands," where Bulgars and bikini-clad outlanders this...
...Petroleum Corp., for which Papacito Efrén Lubín Prieto, 39, works as a $10-a-day oilfield hand. Creole built for the family a $30,000 five-bedroom house in Maracaibo, also provides free medical care, while advertising contracts with Gerber and Klim give meat and milk. The big problem is telling them apart, though their mother insists that this is no problem at all. "Otto is the lovingest," she says. "Juan José has the shortest fuse.

One of the fastest-growing exports...
Everything Hard. Around the Yankees, .180 hitters usually catch the first milk train back to the farm. Not Bauer; he was around for eleven years, nine pennants and seven world championships. He was no DiMaggio, no Ruth, no Gehrig, no Mantle. He never hit more than 26 homers in a single season, never made more than $34,500 a year, never led the league in anything-except hustle. And that made him a Yankee great...
This kind of mess naturally calls for scapegoats. A few weeks ago, Fidel "liberated" his Economy Minister and overall economic planner. The unlucky companero was Regino Boti, 43, a Marxist convert who once served on the U.N. Economic Commission for Latin America. Boti's new assignment: a condensed-milk plant in Oriente province, where he will oversee 200 to 300 em ployees. The No. 1 man now in control of Cuba's economy seems to be Minister of Industries Che Guevara, 36, who has long been Fidel's all-round handyman...
