...will reach a 400-acre, semi-religious encampment called Elohim City. There you will find a vine-covered structure roofed over with polyurethane foam, looking oddly like the cottage in the tale of Hansel and Gretel. This is the Worship House. Within it Elohim's spiritual father, Robert Millar, 71, preaches a mix of Christian Scripture and heterodox tales of Germanic, Celtic and Scandinavian tribes--the true Israelites who will provide God's terrible soldiers at Armageddon.

...Millar was born in Canada and raised a Mennonite before "heeding a call" to the U.S. in the early 1950s. In 1973 he moved to the Ozarks with 17 followers, including his four sons, and founded his city, giving it the name Elohim, which means God in Hebrew.

Clarkson goaltender Dan Murphy's quick glance towards Millar would cost him dearly as Allman wasted no time in whipping the puck nearside into the upper netting, ending the first period at a 1-1 stalemate...
Sophomore Rob Millar skated up the boards with a Yale defender, and then dropped the puck to Sproule. With only one defender back, Sproule kept possession until the lone Bulldog was forced to play...
