TOP OF THE WEEK:
COVER STORY: LIVING WITH CRIME: Armed guards in public schools, shopkeepers who keep their doors locked, bus drivers that
won't make change, the suspicious glance at a stranger's face and the snarl of a guard dog -- throughout urban America and in
many of the suburbs as well, the signs Writer Alpern of fear proliferate. Violent crime has become not just an alarming set of
statistics, but an oppressive state of mind. The cities bristle with new security devices, added police squads, voluntary citizens'
patrols -- and people who increasingly regard life as a running defensive battle for safety. Associate Editor David M. Alpern,
who was mugged himself at knifepoint last year, wrote the story of Fortress America. (Newsweek cover photo by Lawrence
Fried.)
FIVE STARS OF EMBASSY ROW: Washington is the world's most prestigious and demanding diplomatic post, and the foreign
ambassadors in the U.S. Capital form an all-star cast. For that reason, any listing of "top envoys" is necessarily arbitrary. But
based on a consensus of the diplomatic corps and the judgment of U.S. officials, diplomatic correspondent Henry Trewhitt
profiles five foreign envoys who rate as ambassadorial superstars.
NO TEARS FOR AEROSPACE: The last fireball of the Apollo moon program (page 76) did not -- as might have been expected --
shine on despairing faces in the aerospace industry and the communities it supports. Cape Kennedy's economy, aided by
overspill from Walt Disney World, climbs ever higher (page 84). And the Boeing Co. is well on its way to successful
diversification (page 85).
THE DEATH OF LIFE: For most of its 36 years, LIFE MAGAZINE was a marvelous window on the world. But then television
overwhelmed its domain and Life went heavily into the red. Last week, Time Inc. announced that it was closing Life at the end
of this month, thus ending the era of mammoth-circulation weeklies in the U.S. From reports by Newsweek correspondents
around the world, General Editor Harry F. Waters writes Life's obituary, while in a companion piece Contributing Editor Shana
Alexander, a Life alumna, offers requiem.
'PHILOSOPHER OF MADNESS' : Scottish psychiatrist RONALD DAVID LAING, who believes that insanity can be a perfectly rational
adjustment to the pressures of an insane world, has become something of a cult figure among college students in the United
States. Newsweek's Phyllis Malamud accompanied Laing on one of his frenetic campus lecture tours last week and filed a report
on the so-called "philosopher of madness."
