Date

This letter reveals that a state intervention (similar to the one that took place in 1966-1967, under Ongania) by the military government was installed to rectify Argentine soccer. This "intervention" lasted from October 1955 to March 27, 1956--most likely to weed out Peronist elements in the AFA.
