COVER: AGAIN, A GUNMAN STRIKES: POPE JOHN PAUL II.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
AGAIN, A GUNMAN STRIKES: POPE JOHN PAUL II -- The scene has become shockingly familiar: a cheering crowd, a smiling leader -- and then, thrust out from the throng, a hand with a gun. This time, the target wasPope John Paul II, who was gravely wounded but expected to recover. His assailant was a 23-year-old Turk, one of the world's most-wanted terrorists, whose attack on the Pontiff made sense to no one but himself -- and caused an outpouring of outrage and prayers all over the world.

HOME OF PLENTY: Broadway's greatest personal triumph in years is that of a 63-year-old grandmother who comes onstage, sings 27 songs and collects several standing ovations. Still as glamorous as ever and with energy to burn, Lena Horne has finally learned, she says, to let all of her "barriers down."

SOCIAL-SECURITY WAR: Ronald Reagan proposed sweeping cuts in social-security benefits last week -- and for the first time in his Presidency, Congressional Democrats sensed a soft spot in his armor. Even so, politicians on both sides of the aisle admitted that some ac- tion must be taken to rescue social security from short-term cash problems and a turn-of-the-cen- tury financial disaster. The solu- tion that emerges, however, may bear faint resemblance to what Reagan has proposed.

BEST SELLER: A new blockbuster by James Clavell tops the best-seller lists and another by Harold Robbins is on the way, but no hot book has caused more stir than "Gorky Park," an audacious thriller with a Russian cop for a hero, which is the handiwork of an unknown ex-hack writer, Martin Cruz Smith.

MITTERRAND'S WIN: The victory of Socialist Francois (above) delighted the French left, alarmed the business community, won a cautious reac- tion overseas and just might offer a rare chance to heal the nation's ancient antagonisms.
