COVER: LEGAL BATTLE OF THE SEXES. Changing the rules of Living together, Marriage and Work.
TOP OF THE WEEK:
BATTLE OF THE SEXES: Michelle Marvin (left, with lawyer Marvin Mitchelson) was awarded $104,000 and Lee Marvin won legal vindication when their trial ended last week. But the celebrated "palimony" case opened new arguments over the division of property at the end of an affair--or a marriage. Their case was a peephole trial, but it highlighted a new legal battle of the sexes. In the past decade, women have challenged the law--on alimony, child custody and support, on equal treatment on the job. They have forced changes in how the law deals with them--and, inevitably, with men, sometimes to men's benefit. (NEWSWEEK cover illustration by Charles Saxon.).
RHODESIA VOTES: They went to the polls proudly and joyously--the first black citizens in Rhodesia's history to be allowed to vote. Bishop Abel Muzorewa (at right, with megaphone) was expected to become the next Prime Minister. But nationalist guerrillas vowed to keep fighting, and it was uncertain whether Rhodesia's historic transition to rule by its black majority would be a meaningful step toward peace.
JAPAN'S ART OF THE MOMENT: Americans from Boston to Los Angeles can get a crash course in contemporary Japanese culture this month as the "Japan Today" festival opens in seven major cities. In modern Japan, millions of people still pause to partake in the centuries-old ritual of the tea ceremony (right), and at New York City's Japan House, Westerners are now serenely sipping, too. At the Cooper-Hewitt Museum in New York, everything from a full-scale teahouse to elegant sculpture to kitsch figurines is on exhibition to help illustrate the elusive Japanese principle of ma as it exists in space and time.
TOASTING POLO: In West Palm Beach, hundreds of the sleek set sipped champagne and watched the world's leading polo players compete for the $150,000 Michelob Cup. On scene for the exciting final round was Pete Axthelm, who writes about the artistry and ferocity--and unexpected appeal--of a sport long known as the millionaire's game.
