...body was then flown to Valle Grande, a dirt-poor, two-centuryold town of 7,000 people set in rolling hills some 3,000 ft. high. At the airport, it was loaded into a truck and whisked down the narrow dirt and cobblestone streets to the town's Señor de Malta Hospital, run by German Dominican sisters. There four men in white and a nun went to work on Che, opening an incision in his neck for embalming fluid and washing his body. A man in civilian clothes took his fingerprints.

Also, black students are arriving on the white campus in greater numbers this year. And they have been affected not much by the summer unrest per se, but more from the forces which caused that unrest; the increased militancy within the black ghetto, the shift in emphasis in the Civil Rights Movement towards greater activism and a greater concern with political issues affecting the Negro community...
