    ARGENTINE TOURIST CONSOLES INJURED KIDS


    Today Eugenia Marcos Fernandez is recovering
    after spending the night on an Andalusian hillside
    with two injured schoolchildren. The 38-year-old
    business woman was with her husband on a trip to
    Spain. "While he worked I went walking in the hills,"
    she explained from her hospital bed. On a lonely
    hillside she found two ten-year-old boys who had
    fallen into a large hole in the ground. "They had
    hurt themselves quite badly and couldn't climb
    out," said Eugenia. "When I tried to help them, I fell
    in as well, and then none of us could get out!" They
    were trapped for 15 hours. "I knew we'd be rescued,
    but the kids were really frightened," she said.
