During the next ten years, Perez regarded as proteges two young fellow socialists -- Felipe Gonzalez Marquez, who became Prime Minister of Spain in 1982, and Alan Garcia Perez, who has been President of Peru since 1985. Much like his neighbor Mitterrand, Gonzalez has become an apostle of "market socialism," and he is virtually assured of re-election when Spaniards go to the polls later this month.

That night the fire department has to evacuate the house because of a gas leak. When a neighbor driving them to a nearby shelter gets lost, the little boy runs away and winds up at the bottom of a ravine. Corky comes to the rescue, lowering himself on a rope and climbing out with the boy on his back in a climax worthy of The Great Escape...
