S. A. To CUBA'S BAD BOY, JOSE ESTRADA PALMA, IN MEMORY OF THE VISIT I DID not PAY TO HIS RANCH AUTHOR'S FOREWORD THIS book was not written as an "impression" of Cuba, nor as a guide. I have merely amused myself by setting down on paper what the tourist to Cuba will see, do (and drink) in a land where personal liberty and climate are blended in just the right setting of beauty and romance. I should like here to acknowledge the help I have received from, and recommend to the reader visiting Cuba: Terry's Guide to Cuba. Mr. O'Brien's Times of Cuba. The Havana Post. The Havana Telegram. The Havana News. and publicly to express my thanks to the following gentlemen for their invaluable assistance: Mr. John McEntee Bowman, Mr. Charles F. Flynn, Mr. E. B. Jouffret, Mr. Robert J.

Photo Studios THE CATHEDRAL, HAVANA MAINE MONUMENT CHAPTER I HAVE ONE IN HAVANA I ICE coats the backwash of the Hudson. In Chicago the price of coal has gone up for the second time. On Fifth Avenue the tops of the 'busses are vacant of humanity. In the ornate show-windows that the 'busses pass woolens and tweeds have insinuated themselves in the place of gabardines and light- weight worsteds. The drug-stores display pyramids of cough-and-cold remedies, doctors complain of overwork, and "GRIPPE EPIDEMIC GROWS" menaces subway crowds reading their favorite thrillpaper. Father, developing opposite symptoms from those which send him to Europe or the Adiron- dacks in Summer, persuades his doctor to prescribe a Southern climate. Down in Havana Fred Perry, the Elk City Flash, Father Fate's hired assistant at the Casino, has gone on the water-wagon. Charles Francis (Napoleon) Flynn, Grand Instigator of Activities, who can turn himself off and on like an electric ice-box, is seen at 2 WHEN IT'S COCKTAIL TIME IN CUBA the Jockey Club at 2 p.m., at the Sevilla at 2.05 p.m., and at the Casino at 2.15 p.m., notwithstanding the fact that these places are, even in a Cuban taxi- cab, twenty-five minutes apart. Old Man Jackson heralds the advent of the season by ceremoniously bringing in to the Sevilla B the first free hot lunch of the season, thereby occasioning the first reunion of the Old-Timers' Club. The taxicab drivers have hunted up their "English Spoken" signs and the stores on the Prado have busily affixed brand-new price-tags. Around the corner from the American Club a swarthy gentleman, proud because he is called "Sloppy," smilingly oils his cash-register. Out in Marianao roses are blooming, and the out- lying fincas are sending the first ripe strawberries to market. A pair of plus-fours appears on Obispo Street and, as if they were only awaiting this sign (as perhaps they were), swarms of Syrian bead-merchants invade the streets, Cuban counterpart of the insistent rug- vendor of Europe. Two shrewd blue eyes behind round spectacles appear in the Sevilla lobby and their owner is fol- lowed by gentlemen with camera, pad and pencil. "Bobbie" Kennedy, ace in the publicity pack, has ar- rived—and so, we may presume, has the season: It's cocktail time in Cuba. HAVE ONE IN HAVANA 3 II "Have one in Havana" seems to have become the winter slogan of the wealthy. The bells of Santa Clara are sounding auspiciously in Northern ears. It is becoming fashionable to follow in the footsteps of Columbus. So thronged with Americans has the Riviera become that these same Americans are turn- ing nearer home for something more satisfyingly foreign, realizing suddenly that only sixty miles from their own shores is a city so completely exotic that they may be as superior as they please. An American abroad is not happy unless he can feel thoroughly superior and a sine qua non of this superiority is that the country he visits should have a language different from his own. The natives can thus be berated for their ignorance and dullness of comprehension. In Cuban educational circles a move- ment is on foot to so contrive it that every child speaks English on graduation from high-school. This is a movement upon which the tourist commis- sion of Cuba should set a heavy, unscrupulous heel. If the Cuban children speak English, they will un- consciously ape the American and succeed at last in thinking and acting as the American. The boys will begin to think cock-fighting cruel, and turn to base- ball, and the girls will no longer seriously consider 4 WHEN IT'S COCKTAIL TIME IN CUBA motherhood at the age of thirteen. I assure you that I wot—a lot—of what I am saying, and it is my sol- emn opinion that the future of Cuba touristically depends not so much upon its climate, as is falla- ciously believed, as upon the fact that Cuba is a for- eign—a very foreign—land. III Cuba at present has four very distinct appeals to the American tourist, and I list them in order of their importance, knowing well that practically every reader will think I err in not putting Number Two first: 1. It is utterly foreign. 2. It has "personal liberty" carried to the Nth degree. 3. Its climate is among the finest in the world. 4. Its history is the colorful history of romance and adventure. How foreign is Cuba may be gauged from the fact that, despite its size, it has only 6,000 permanent American residents—and opportunities for twenty times that many. Many an American has come to Cuba with great ideas and a fortune to be made. He will show them. The trouble with these people is, they're too lazy. They won't work. They HAVE ONE IN HAVANA 5 haven't any incentive. What do they need money for—with meals growing on wayside trees and hardly any clothes necessary? They are thriftless. They won't save because why pile up a fortune when one day they will win the lottery? They loaf around, and can't get anything done. But he will show them. He is an American.* Twenty years later you meet him fanning himself as he sits in his undershirt on his porch. Fortune? Who in hell wants a fortune in this country? He's got enough, hasn't he? Enough to keep a wife and a flock of kids and make an annual (summer) trip to New York. Well, what more does a man want in a coun- try where the breakfasts grow on trees and no over- coats are necessary? He's no hog—besides, he may win the lottery. Yes, sir. Have a drink! As to personal liberty, it depends upon what your definition is of that useful commodity.

    Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930S

    Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930s Ariel Mae Lambe Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Ariel Mae Lambe All rights reserved ABSTRACT Cuban Antifascism and the Spanish Civil War: Transnational Activism, Networks, and Solidarity in the 1930s Ariel Mae Lambe This dissertation shows that during the Spanish Civil War (1936–1939) diverse Cubans organized to support the Spanish Second Republic, overcoming differences to coalesce around a movement they defined as antifascism. Hundreds of Cuban volunteers—more than from any other Latin American country—traveled to Spain to fight for the Republic in both the International Brigades and the regular Republican forces, to provide medical care, and to serve in other support roles; children, women, and men back home worked together to raise substantial monetary and material aid for Spanish children during the war; and longstanding groups on the island including black associations, Freemasons, anarchists, and the Communist Party leveraged organizational and publishing resources to raise awareness, garner support, fund, and otherwise assist the cause. The dissertation studies Cuban antifascist individuals, campaigns, organizations, and networks operating transnationally to help the Spanish Republic, contextualizing these efforts in Cuba’s internal struggles of the 1930s. It argues that both transnational solidarity and domestic concerns defined Cuban antifascism. First, Cubans confronting crises of democracy at home and in Spain believed fascism threatened them directly. Citing examples in Ethiopia, China, Europe, and Latin America, Cuban antifascists—like many others—feared a worldwide menace posed by fascism’s spread.

    La Construcción Discursiva Del Espectador En Los Reality Shows. El Caso De Gran Hermano Del Pacífico

    FACULTAD DE CIENCIAS Y ARTES DE LA COMUNICACIÓN La construcción discursiva del espectador en los reality shows. El caso de Gran Hermano del Pacífico. Tesis para optar el Título de LICENCIADA EN PUBLICIDAD Presentada por CYNTHIA INGRID CABREJOS CALIENES Lima 2007 INTRODUCCIÓN El presente trabajo de investigación lleva como título: “La construcción discursiva del espectador en los reality shows. El caso de Gran Hermano del Pacífico”. Partiendo de las repercusiones sociales que este formato ha tenido en el plano social e individual, me interesa centrar mi análisis en esta nueva forma de hacer televisión que explota día a día la publicidad de la intimidad y el entretenimiento como recursos válidos para ganar audiencias. Todos sabemos que la televisión ejerce una fuerte influencia en sus televidentes, especialmente en la forma en la que estos se relacionan con su entorno. Sin duda, las imágenes de la televisión de hoy representan a su espectador, en la forma en que este concibe su sociedad y además, en cuáles son sus hábitos de consumo. Por otro lado, tenemos que la forma en la que estos reality shows presentan los objetos que exhiben y cuánto exhiben de ellos, es muestra de su papel por construir a un tipo de espectador ideal. Como un libro que ha sido escrito para un lector que idealmente interpreta y comprende los contenidos de la forma que lo ha concebido el autor, los reality shows establecen marcas enunciativas para atribuirle a su espectador diferentes competencias que finalmente terminen por fidelizarlo y engancharlo al drama. Precisamente la pregunta que esta investigación pretende responder es cómo el discurso de los realities (concentrándose particularmente en el de Gran Hermano) construye a un espectador ideal omnisciente y omnividente.

    Cuban Winter League (Special Season – Triangular) (1926-27) During the 1926-27 winter baseball season in Cuba there were two leagues. The “new” competing league was called the Triangular League because it was composed of three teams (Alacranes, Havana Reds and Marianao). The owners of these three “new” teams were better financed than the owners of the “other” league and could sign the best Latin and Negro League players. The season opened on 10/28/26 and ended on 2/6/27. Batting Leaders Player Team AB R Hits 2B 3B HR Average C. Garcia Alacranes 8 0 4 - - - .500 J.
