...executives hopped to. The handle was shipped off to a General Dynamics' lab, where analysis revealed that it had been made from the horn of a rare Southeast Asian buffalo.

Shadowy Figure. In addition to the three grave sites pointed out by Henley and Brooks, police learned from the boatyard manager that Corll had put his name on a waiting list for still another boat stall. Police were looking into the possibility of other burial grounds perhaps unknown to either Brooks or Henley.

Ford engines. His competition was Merrick Lewis, whose Holocaust (730 horses packed into a 23-ft. frame) was -that's right-an Aronow-designed Formula. With 007 throttled up to 5,800 r.p.m., Aronow was hitting a fantastic 66 knots...
