Old Jew JERUSALEM (Reuters) -- A| 'white - bearded Polish Jew screamed abuse at Adolf Eich- mann today as the former Nazi colonel faced another withering session of cross-examin, by Israeli Attorney-General Gideon Hausner. The man was dragged strug- gling from the courtroom, still shouting 'You bloodhound--dog- murderer" toward Eichmann in (his glass cage. Eichmann was being ques- |tioned at the time about reasons | for deporting Jews to the ghetto at Lodz. The man explained he lost his wife and five sons dur- ing the deportations.

Details of the fire aboard the 54 - foot, 40 -ton fishing vessel were not available. But in brief messages to naval headquar- ters here, the Terra Nova said she had picked up the crew safely.
