TOP OF THE WEEK: LAOS INVADED: Allied troops moved into old border battlegrounds last week--khe Sanh, Lang Vei and the A Shau Valley. Then, finally, the long-awaited order came from Washington, and South Vietnamese troops, supported by U.S. air power, mounted a momentous invasion into Laos. From reports by Maynard Parker in Saigon, Blake Smith at khe Sanh, Kevin Buckley in Vientiane, Laos, and Newsweek's Washington bureau, General Editor Russell Watson wrote the cover story. (Newsweek cover photo by Neil Ulevich.). VISIT TO THE MOON: (Apollo 14 plaque). Shortly before he climbed back into his lunar module to prepare for the return trip to earth, Apollo 14 astronaut Alan B. Shepard Jr. carried out one task that was definitely not part of his mission. He jury-rigged a No. 6 iron for himself and played a game of one-man golf, pre sumably the first in the moon's history. Reporting the story of Apollo 14 were Washington Science correspondent Henry Simmons and Houston correspondent Kent Biffle. They filed their dispatches to Science and Space editor George Alexander, who went to Cape Kennedy for the launch and then returned to New York to write the story of man's third visit to the surface of the moon. 1971: THE YEAR OF THE CONSUMER? If the Nixon Administration is to achieve its optimistic economic goals in the next eighteen months, it will be in large measure up to that workaday figure, the U.S. consumer. Only the release of pent-up billions in consumer purchasing power can make the Nixon strategy work. From files by Rich Thomas and other Newsweek correspondents in Washington and across the country, Associate Editor Gene Koretz wrote the story. A companion piece on a key figure in the Administration's economic planning, John Connally, draws on Connally reports by Samuel Shaffer from Capitol Hill and from the Houston bureau and was written by General Editor Tom Nicholson. In addition, Milton Friedman, Paul A. Samuelson and Henry C. Wallich break their normal rotation to give their own distinctive views of U.S. economic prospects. THE SAD YOUNG EXILES: Young Americans are crossing the border to Canada as deserters or dodgers of the U.S. armed services at the rate of more than 50 a week.
