TOP OF THE WEEK:
COVER STORY: THE DEMOCRATS: READY FOR TEDDY? He is scarred by Chappaquiddick, burdened with family problems and unequivocally out of the running for the Democratic Presidential nomination. But he is also the Last Kennedy, and with a slate-gray field milling inconclusively in pursuit of the prize, a good many party leaders are once again ready for Teddy. Can it happen? No, said the senator in conversations with Newsweek's John J. Lindsay; yes, answered a chorus of wishful Democratic Party thinkers across the United States. (Cover photo by Wally McNamee--Newsweek.).

MINORITY RULE? Today's TV power structure is under unprecedented siege by the viewers. Throughout the U.S., scores of citizen protest groups are demanding--and often achieving--a pronounced say in what viewers see. Their clout, however, has raised some profound questions about TV's programing responsibilities. Harry F. Waters reports.

DOMINOES: The fall of Saigon suddenly brought home to many Asian countries the dangers of tying their futures to the United Staies. Some of them, like Laos, clearly do not feel strong enough to buck the Communist tide. Others, like South Korea, are more determined than ever that there can be no accommodation with Communism. But most, like Thailand, are searching for a middle path. A look at how three countries are coping with the new realities.

DYNAMIC DUO: At this point in time, Washington is reliving Watergate in the filming of "All the President's Men." Dustin Hoffman and Robert Redford play reporters Carl Bernstein and Robert Woodward.

THINKING SMALL: A basic change is taking place in the attitudes of American industry, and the phenomenon will have a powerful influence on the economic well-being of the entire country. Over a period of more than two decades, business's surging energy and optimistic visions created vast new material wealth for most Americans. But now the growth cult is losing many followers. Businessmen are thinking small, lopping off unpromising operations and retreating from the old conglomeration binge. The trend is partly a reaction to the recession. But it also reflects pressures on business from government and activists and shortages of capital and materials. These all limit industry's freedom and make it more cautious. Allen Mayer describes the new look.
