TOP OF THE WEEK:
COVER: "LIVING WITH DYING". A GOOD DEATH: The once familiar face of death has become increasingly remote and frightful to most
Americans. But a new wave of awareness is lifting death from a taboo to an accepted fact of life. The hospice concept is helping to
ease the physical and emotional pains of dying, and some thanatologists suggest that death itself is only a passage to another life. (Cover illustration by Carlos Ochagavia.).
SALOON RATS: A psychologist has built a saloon of sorts in a rats' nest and has come up with some interesting findings. It seems the
rodents behave remarkably like human beings where alcohol is concerned. They gather for a few belts with the boys before dinner,
take a nightcap before bed and occasionally go off on a spree.
TOUGH TALK: In a retreat at Camp David, a somber President Carter warned his struggling Administration that -- after fifteen
months -- "the shakedown cruise is over. But the Senate soon thereafter approved the second Panama Canal treaty -- and rekindled
Carter's winning smile.
A PULITZER FOR MEG GREENFIELD: Meg Greenfield, whose column appears on the back page of Newsweek every other week, has
won a Pulitzer Prize for her editorial writing in The Washington Post, where she is deputy editor of the editorial page. Her
Newsweek column alternates with that of George F. Will, who received a Pulitzer Prize last year.
STOCK BINGE: Stock traders shook off the blues when the market signals flashed green last week--and the result was the biggest
buying binge in Wall Street's history. Was it the beginning of a bull market, or a classic bear trap? Senior writer Michael Ruby
reconstructs what happened, and analyzes the currents that will shape the market's future. Related pieces probe the workings of
the big institutions that led the advance and dissect the latest in a rash of Wall Street mergers.
SYLVESTER HOFFA: Rocky is back--and the mob has got him. in his second starring movie role, Sylvester Stallone plays a labor boss
whose rise and fall are loosely based on the life of Jimmy Hoffa. Called "F.I.S.T.," the movie aspires to the epic proportions of "The
Godfather," writes critic David Ansen, but it settles for too many cliches, and Stallone himself seems to be beyond his acting depth.
