Editor: Daniel James Vol. 1, No. 13, August 31, 1963 INSIDE CUBA NEW SOVIET MILITARY COMPLEX IN PINAR DEL RIO Sources inside Cuba provide facts pointing to the existence of a new Soviet mili­ tary complex in Cuba 1s westernmost province, Pinar del Rio, which commands the Florida Straits. The main Soviet installation and the site of Soviet military GHQ is at La Gobernadora hills, near the country's principal naval base of Marie!. Five large tunnels have been constructed in the La Gobernadora area. They are 105 ft. wide -- permitting two - way traffic -- and have reinforced ceilings 30 ft . high. Two of the tunnels penetrate La Gobernadora hills laterally for a distance of 6 miles , according to a Rebel Army lieutenant who personally toured the tunnels during their construction and has defected. Guided missiles are secreted in the tunnels, according to reports from the mili­ tary arm of the Cuban resistance movement. Other sources inside Cuba say that at least one tunnel has been air-conditioned for the storage of nuclear warheads, and that another has been equipped with refrigerating equipment for storing liquid oxygen used for ballis ­ tic missiles. Electrical systems have been installed at the nearby base of Meseta de Anafe, add the latter sources, and are connected with the guided-missile stations at La Gober­ nadora and the Havana military 11 horseshoe 11 {see ''Military 1Horseshoe 1 Around Havana, 11 FCN No.

  • Enrique Jorrín and Cha-Cha-Chá: Creation, Historical Importance and Influences on American Music Education
    ENRIQUE JORRÍN AND CHA-CHA-CHÁ: CREATION, HISTORICAL IMPORTANCE AND INFLUENCES ON AMERICAN MUSIC EDUCATION A Thesis Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree MASTER OF MUSIC by Jeffrey M. Torchon December 2015 Examining Committee Members: Dr. Deborah Confredo, Advisory Chair, Music Education Dr. Nathan Buonviri, Music Education Dr. Rollo Dilworth, Music Education © Copyright 2015 by Jeffrey M. Torchon All Rights Reserved ii ABSTRACT One of the most distinctive musical genres that originated in Cuba over the last century has been Cha-Cha-Chá, which was created by Enrique Jorrín in the 1950s. The popularity of this music has grown considerably since its genesis, evidenced by the vast array of repertoire associated with the style of music, the multitude of bands performing it and its prevalence in popular culture. The music has traveled the world via aural transmission; advances in technology have helped to disseminate Cha-Cha-Chá and have contributed to its prevalence. Very little research—particularly research written in the English language—exists on this genre and its creator. Due to its musical significance and social impact, it is important to understand Cha-Cha-Chá’s place in modern Cuba and how it has been preserved over time. The purpose of this study is to discuss Enrique Jorrín’s influence on the creation and performance of Cha-Cha-Chá, and to discuss the importance of Cha-Cha-Chá in American music education. iii DEDICATION I dedicate this work to my grandfather, Ray Torchon. In his vivacious eighty- seven years of life, he and I were the best of friends.

Mora © Christina D. Abreu 2012 For my parents. ii Acknowledgments Not a single word of this dissertation would have made it to paper without the support of an incredible community of teachers, mentors, colleagues, and friends at the University of Michigan. I am forever grateful to my dissertation committee: Jesse Hoffnung-Garskof, Richard Turits, Yeidy Rivero, and Anthony Mora. Jesse, your careful and critical reading of my chapters challenged me to think more critically and to write with more precision and clarity. From very early on, you treated me as a peer and have always helped put things – from preliminary exams and research plans to the ups and downs of the job market – in perspective. Your advice and example has made me a better writer and a better historian, and for that I thank you. Richard, your confidence in my work has been a constant source of encouragement. Thank you for helping me to realize that I had something important to say. Yeidy, your willingness to join my dissertation committee before you even arrived on campus says a great deal about your intellectual generosity. ¡Mil Gracias! Anthony, watching you in the classroom and interact with students offered me an opportunity to see a great teacher in action.

By analyzing the popular press, health reports, medical journals, and official correspondence in U.S. and Cuban archives, it argues that ordinary citizens, public intellectuals, and civic actors in the interwar era—not the revolutionary government of 1959—introduced the concept of a “right to health” and invoked it to demand an efficient state healthcare sector. In response to these claims and in his quest to strengthen the state, Fulgencio Batista created the Consejo Nacional de Tuberculosis in 1936.

In particular, it focuses on the case of the Cuban-American community and English- as well as Spanish-language media based in Miami, FL. Following the revolution under Fidel Castro in 1959, Miami developed into the capital of the Cuban exile. Over the past decades, the Cuban-American community formed a nucleus which attracted further migration from South America and the Caribbean. The incoming migrants contributed to turning Miami into a flourishing economic urban space.
