Zechariah
One of the 12 Minor Prophets of the Old Testament, whose prophecies are recorded in the Book of Zechariah. (The work is part of a larger book, The Twelve, in the Jewish canon.)

The book also includes his apocalyptic visions of the end of time.


Zaharias
U.S. athlete, sometimes called the greatest woman athlete of the 20th cent. Born in Port Arthur, Texas, she became a remarkable performer in basketball and track and field, and later a leading golfer. In 1930-31 she was a member of the women's All-America basketball team. In national track-and-field competition in 1930-32, she won eight events and tied for a ninth. In the 1932 Olympics she won gold medals in the 80-m hurdles and javelin throw; she was deprived of the high-jump gold medal for using a then-unorthodox method. As a golfer from 1946, she won numerous championships, incl. the U.S. and British women's amateur tournaments (1946, 1947) and the U.S. Women's Open (1948, 1950, 1954); her last Open victory followed cancer surgery in 1953.
