TOP OF THE WEEK:
THE BOY WHO LOST A BILLION:
In one of the most astounding financial failures ever, a 28-year-old trader in Singapore Nicholas Leeson singlehandedly brought down Barings PLC, the 233-year-old London investment firm that financed the Louisiana Purchase and helped keep British armies in the field during the Napoleonic wars. The tale is one of greed, chutzpah and a stodgy firm that looked the other way. Focus: On Your Money: Page 86.
DOLE'S DILEMMA:
Bob Dole wanted a two-fer last week: pass the balanced-budget amendment and seem presidential. But he lost, and the spectacle reminded voters why they hate politics-as-usual. Can Dole, the capital veteran, shed his insider image in '96? National Affairs: Page 20.
PENALIZED FOR WORKING?
Marcia Clark has been trying to convince a jury that O. J. Simpson is guilty of murder. Now she has to convince a judge that she should keep custody of her sons. It's a bind for single mothers, caught between demanding jobs and raising children. Society: Page 54.
