Born. To Nelly Rivas, 20, Lolita-like friend at 14 of fading Argentine Dictator Juan Peron, and Carlos José Ramil, 25, a U.S. Embassy accountant in Argentina: their first child, a son; in Buenos Aires. Name: Carlos Joseé Jr. Weight...
...time or another all three of them were in the same line of work; outsiders might easily picture ex-Dictator Juan Peron, 63, and ex-Dictator Fulgencio Batista, 58, gathered around Dictator Rafael Leonidas Trujillo's warm swimming pool in the Dominican Republic, reminiscing about the good old days.
