COVER: BIG CITY SCHOOLS: CAN THEY BE SAVED?

TOP OF THE WEEK:
SCHOOLS IN CRISIS: Ten per cent of U.S. public-school pupils are in the nation's biggest cities. But the education they get in their violence-ridden classrooms is a national scandal. Can big-city schools be saved? Merrill Sheils assesses the crisis. (Cover photo by Neal Slavin.).

ECONOMIC WORRIES: After a boomy six months, the U.S. economy is slowing down--casting doubt that Jimmy Carter can achieve his promised goals of reducing unemployment and balancing the Federal budget by 1981. At the same time, inflation remains stubbornly high, creating a tremdous squeeze on the American middle class (page 30).

RHODESIA: NO DEAL: Rhodesia's Ian Smith and black militants both rejected key parts of a new peace plan last week. In related stories, Anclrev. Young says the search for peace will go on, and U.S. volunteers explain why they fight for Smith.

A NEW KICK: They provide a splashy layered look for fall and keep legs warm in the dead of winter. Fashion's latest kick is brightly colored leg warmers worn over tights. Legwear for the new season comes in everything from rabbit fur to cashmere.

REFORMING THE BANKS: The continuing saga of Bert Lance's financial dealings may be helping the cause of bank reformers.

This week, a House subcommittee holds hearings on legislation to bar bank practices that are common but questionable, if not illegal--loans to officers and other insiders, stock sales and cozy relationships with correspondent banks. The issues will also figure in Senate hearings on Lance himself (page 25), as support for the budget director erodes and sonic White House aides even talk of a Lance resignation.

GRAND THEFT: He steals bases the wrong way. But LOU BROCK of the St. Louis Cardinals reads pitchers like a book--and last week he broke Ty Cobb's venerable career recorrl of 892 stolen bases.

MAGIC ART: Long admiured as mildly pleasing but merely "pretty" or "primitive," American Indian art is the subject of a new show at the Art Institute of Chicago that reveals what it really is--a ritual embrace of nature.
