TOP OF THE WEEK:
ROWDY SPOOFING FOR FUN AND PROFIT: Incredible but true! Gangs of wacko parodists are offing some of the country's best-selling newspapers, magazines, books and nonbooks. The wise guys on the cover are on the front lines of all this. Tony Hendra reported a Vatican missile race in Off The Wall Street Journal II, Alfred Gingold came up with an edible moccasin for his L.L. Bean send-up, Items From Our Catalog, and Sean Kelly knocked the Good Book itself in Not the Bible. Taste is no object for the ever-expanding gaggle of lampooners, but money is. "Plain Jane Works Out" (left) is klutzing up the best-seller list and fast-buck publishers are helping make the free-enterprising pranksters rich beyond their wildest inventions.

A e look at one of today's most complex 'ironmental problems.

SET-TO OVER FOREIGN POLICY: Ronald Reagan won a difficult fight with the Senate over his nomination of Kenneth Adelman as chief U.S. arms negotiator--but Congress continues to challenge Reagan's leadership on a broad range of foreign-policy issues. Critics question the competence of his key advisers--particularly national-security adviser William Clark and, surprisingly, Secretary of State George Shultz.

FEET ON THE MARCH: Thanks to the running boom, the foot has made major medical strides. Doctors prize that anatomical marvel for the many things that can go wrong with it and the ingenious new techniques available to repair it.

CREEPING CAPITALISM: Private firefighting companies compete in Grants Pass, Ore. In Atlanta city hall itself is for sale. Local governments across the nation are increasingly turning their essential public services over to private business to run.
