...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 10-ft. by 10-ft. room...
...greet and praise De Koven in the Ladies' Lounge. Please refrain from criticizing the Maestro, for it never does any good and only gives De Koven the colic." At Manhattan's Town Hall last week, that injunction served to introduce Classical Disk Jockey Seymour De Koven, an evangelist of the baroque, a man dedicated to the proposition that scarcely any music worth listening to was written after 1828, the year Schubert died.

In that early work, Barth says, "I had to show that the Bible dealt with an encounter between God and Man. I thought only of the apartness of God. What I had to learn after that was the togetherness of Man and God - a union of two totally different kinds of beings." In place of the divine No uttered by God, Barth in Dogmatics writes about the divine Yes spoken to those who accept...
...Devil. Brown is an evangelist of the social gospel only. For Oscar, the Devil is Mr. Kicks and God is any one's honest try - both of them amiable enough figures in his life. But the accept ance of his music, the success of his record albums, the outlook for kicks in the future - all are too bright to take seriously. "The other day a burlesque girl came by my room and asked if she could sing Mr. Kicks in her act," Oscar says...
