Trinidad & Tobago, W.I. - Thirteen children who travelled to Argentina to play the national instrument in a concert are expected to return today.

 

Some $500,000 towards the trip has been paid by the State, parents and private citizens, said Roland Riley, treasurer for the Exocubs Youth Orchestra, based in Tunapuna.
