...build up abroad, the Israeli Cabinet decided to act quickly. Before midnight, warders entered Eichmann's cell on the third floor of Ramla prison, near Tel Aviv. He had drunk half a bottle of Carmel, a dry red Israeli wine, while awaiting their arrival. To the Rev. William Hull, a Canadian-born Evangelist who had been acting as his spiritual adviser, he said: "Today I am not prepared to discuss the Bible. I don't have time to waste." Then the cell door swung open and the party marched down the corridor and into a small...
...aluminum mast unstepped, her Honduras mahogany hull swathed in protective padding, Australia's sleek, 12-meter challenger for the America's Cup was ready last week for her voyage to the U.S.-as deck cargo aboard the freighter City of Sydney. For two months, Gretel (pronounced Great-ul) had been testing herself against her American trial horse, Vim, and stories about her speed were flying like loose sheets in a gale. Though the Aussies carefully tut-tutted the report, one story had it that Gretel had beaten Vim by 16 minutes over a 16-mile course-a fantastic...

"Every little bit you can save in hull weight can be added to the keel for extra stability and better sail performance." Radical as she is, nobody is selling Nefertiti short. Ted Hood's new boat looks fast, and at the very least, she should have perfect sails...
...bring Eichmann to the point where "God can reach his heart," Hull has tried to make Eichmann see that God's judgment of his soul is more important than the Israeli court's judgment of his body. At their first conference last month, Hull asked Eichmann to turn in his Bible to a text in Ecclesiastes. Eichmann hesitated. "Isn't that in the Old Testament?" he asked. When Hull said it was, Eichmann answered: "I won't read it. I don't believe in Jewish stories and fables." Patiently, Hull explained: "I've laid...
