TOP OF THE WEEK:
COVER: CARTER's GAME PLAN: CARTER'S COUP: The 30-primary marathon ended last week in a way few forecast at the start. Jimmy Carter emerged as the Demcratic nominee-in-waiting while President Ford found himself locked in trench warfare with Ronald Reagan (page 14). This week's political stories preview Carter's plans for the fall campaign and his search for a Veep and profile his press secretary (page 52). On the GOP side, a Newsweek survey gives Ford a slight edge in delegates. (Cover photo by Bill Ray).
SYRIA'S MILITARY THRUST into Lebanon was stopped in its tracks and Syrian President Hafez Assad suffered a humiliating setback (page 37). For the first time, diplomats speculated that Assad's gamble might cost him his job.
THE PRECARIOUS SPORT OF SKATEBOARDING has become a $250 million business with many facets (page 56). But all is not smooth sailing: there were 27,522 skateboard-related injuries last year.
AFTER SEVEN YEARS OF PLANNING, THE FIRST OF TWO VIKING SPACECRAFT will begin orbiting Mars in preparation for a July 4 Bicentennial landing. Their $1 billion mission: to search for signs of life on the mysterious red planet (page 74).
THE AMERICAN STYLE IN ARCHITECTURE was perfected in Illinois. Next month, two rival exhibitions, at Chicago's Museum of Contemporary Art and at the Time-Life Building there, will set off a debate that could change the state of the art (page 85).
Newsweek reviewers dip into this summer's beach bag full of SUMMER FICTION--and come up with a list of lively novels that seem designed to make drowsing in a hammock out of the question (page 78).
