...access to sell high-tech documents on ballistic-missile research to Polish intelligence for some $250,000; and in a trial that began last Friday in Los Angeles, Svetlana and Nikolai Ogorodnikov, two Soviet émigrés, are accused of attempting to buy secrets from Richard Miller, an FBI agent who was allegedly tempted by a promise of $65,000 in cash and gold. The list goes on: in the past 15 months, 15 people in the U.S. have been arrested for spying. "We have more people charged with espionage right now than ever before in our history," FBI Director...

...walking even unsteadily later, though he bore scarcely a recognizable resemblance to the person who had entered the ring. His grin was continuous and worrisomely inappropriate--wider than chagrin--and his speech was more deliberate than distinct. His thoughts were slower still.
