...least unusual. But for TIME'S Apollo space team, the days have grown into weeks. Associate Editor Leon Jaroff and Senior Editor Ronald Kriss had no sooner wrapped up our 14-page special Moon Supplement than they were right back at work, with only one day of rest, writing and editing this week's cover story on the historic mission itself. And this time the work stretched on for eight uninterrupted days. Although TIME ordinarily closes on Saturday evening, we felt compelled to hold the magazine open until Monday, in order to report the climax...
Meanwhile, in Houston, the rest of TIME'S Apollo reportorial team -Correspondents Don Neff and James Schefter and Bureau Secretary Rose Graham-had set up operations in a motel directly across the street from the Manned Space Center. For Rose, it was the 16th time that she has supervised the movement of typewriters, files, Associated Press ticker and Teletype from the bureau offices in Houston's downtown Humble Building. During Apollo 8's pioneering voyage around the moon, she sent copy by Teletype for 20 hours without letup, all through Christmas Eve until noon on Christmas...

According to their literal interpretation of The Bible, based on Revelation 14:1,* the Lord God will then pick 144,000 Witnesses to reign with Christ in heaven. The rest will remain on earth to convert unbelievers; at the end of 1,000 years, the wicked will be annihilated, while the saved will continue to enjoy a worldly Paradise. In his address on closing, day to the week-long assembly of delegates from 78 countries, the sect's president...
...thing, their interpretation of Biblical chronology reveals that Adam and Eve were created in the autumn of 4026 B.C., or 5,994 years ago. Linking 6,000 years to the six days of God's creation, they believe it fitting that there be a sabbath-like rest thereafter, beginning in 1975-though Witnesses cautiously avoid a flat prediction linked to that year. What is more, Christ's promise that "this generation will not pass away till all these things take place" means that the generation alive in 1914, when the last days began, will see Armageddon. As they...
