...heart of the controversy is the Rebekah Home for Girls, a facility for wayward girls that Roloff founded in 1957. The two-story, white brick building is located next to Roloff s own two-story stone house on his 567-acre compound near Corpus Christi. Rebekah's 150 residents have been sent to Roloff by parents around the country, and their expenses are largely paid by Roloffs "People's Church." The girls wear uniforms and spend about four hours a day in rigorous religious training, in addition to studying academic courses that are heavily weighted with fundamentalist beliefs...
...Patrol Officer Michael Delany was working with a dog at the police canine center. He turned to look up at the crippled airplane. "We could see all the fuel was spouting out the left side where the engine would be," he said. "And then as he got over our compound, the other engine shut off. So there was complete silence in the air. And then the plane turned, perpendicular to the ground, with the left wing facing down and the right wing facing up."

The Shah's daily routine of jogging, swimming, golf and tennis was disrupted three weeks ago by a power failure; his panicky guards believed that a death squad from the Palestine Liberation Organization had attacked. More recently, a group of Bahamian intellectuals has been agitating to have him expelled. Last week one of his close confidants told TIME that the Shah was considering a permanent haven in a Latin American country, perhaps...
...wife while aiming at him. Discharged from a rest home, he gets the strong impression that his bosses no longer have any use for him, and indeed we see them running his dossier through the paper shredder and deciding to do something very similar to his person. To compound his difficulties, a rather schizzy young woman (Janet Margolin) has mysteriously taken up residence in his apartment (her story of a mixed-up sublease does not wash awfully well). He is also in receipt of a death threat written in ancient Hebrew-not at all the form in which the Government...
