TOP OF THE WEEK:
THE COURT HEARS THE BAKKE CASE: In the hush of high drama, the U.S. Supreme Court heard oral arguments last week in
the case of Regents of the University of California vs. Allan Bakke--the landmark struggle over the line between "affirmative
action favoring blacks and "reverse discrimination against whites. Justice editor Jerrold K. Footlick was on scene to report
on the debate and its possible resolution, and, on page 128, columnist Meg Greenfield reflects on some of the deeper issues
underlying the public controversy.
THE SERIES PAGE: Jasper Johns's paintings are indelible icons. Now the Whitney Museum in New York has given him a huge
retrospective which confirms his position as America's master artist of his generation. Art editor Mark Stevens describes the
man and his work. (Cover photo by Hans Namuth.).
NOBEL PRIZES: In addition to two peace awards (page 61), Nobel Prizes were given last week to nine researchers in
medicine, physics, chemistry and economics. Such work may be abstruse, but it has added greatly to man's understanding
of his world.
THE WORLD SERIES: The Dodgers provide a touch of Hollywood. The Yankees offer intramural fighting and hurler Sparky
Lyle (above). Batter up!.
CAN JIMMY CARTER COPE? Under rising criticism, Jimmy Carter came out counterpunching to save his energy program--and
to prove that he really can cope with the Presidency. Thomas M. DeFrank and Eleanor Clift interviewed top, hand Hamilton
Jordan and others for Newsweek's analysis of Carter' s time of troubles, his high-stakes offensive against the oil companies
and the disarray afflicting his chiefless staff.
