South America. So we've always been eclectic. The whole climate is eclectic, so we don't need a mixture, in many ways, if you can put it that way. We've a mixture in the whole place.

Are the Spanish-speaking people mostly black or mulatto?

Both. Both.

White also? Caucassian also?

Yes.

Does the bilingual or dual lingual factor cause any special difficulties here?

It doesn't cause any difficulties because we have Spanish-speaking people in every area, including the secretarial area. So it doesn't cause any difficulty.

There are probably two groups of children?

No. No, no, most of the children speak English. It's their parents generally who don't speak English.

To go back to this point you mentioned, getting uptown and downtown together -- as your programs evolved here, did you encounter any special problems with the downtown people? I'm thinking of things perhaps like paternalism, or avunclarism, or anything like that?

Well, we've always been selective about our volunteers. And people do want to come sometimes who are a little paternal.
