Against the granite-faced opposition of his uncle, Count Matarazzo, Baby took over his family's metals plant a few years ago and made it into the largest nonferrous rolling mill in South America. For his redheaded fiancee, Nelita Alves de Lima, Baby is building a million-dollar house in suburban Santo Amaro with two Turkish baths, a shooting gallery, a bowling alley and an outdoor swimming pool.
