...Wilma Rudolph overcame these obstacles to become the fastest woman in the world and win three gold medals at the 1960 Olympics. At the opening in Washington last week of the National Portrait Gallery's new summer show, "Champions of American Sport," Rudolph, 41, stopped by a photograph of her Olympic victory in the 400-meter relay. When she is not working on her third book (on how to be a successful working mother), she is heading up the Olympic Experience Program for youngsters, and heading off challenges from the children to race.

When the furry creature got to within a hare's breadth of the craft, Carter took oar in hand and began flailing frantically to chase it away-or maybe even...
...cupola and the precise location of a computer installation that would eventually control the reactor's operation. In June 1980, the armed forces asked Prime Minister Begin to authorize a clandestine, infrared survey of the site at El-Tuwaitha. Before the mission, Begin was given an aerial photograph of the area. He did not hesitate. With a flourish, he signed the bottom of the photograph: "With the salutations of Zion. Menachem Begin...
