COVER: "The SURVIVAL SUMMIT: What the South will ask for. What the North Should do." Cover: Illustration by Saul Lambert.
TOP OF THE WEEK:
THE SURVIVAL SUMMIT IN CANCUN: For more than three decades, the gulf has yawned wider between the mostly prosperous Northern Hemisphere and the mostly impoverished South. And for more than three decades, the problems have overwhelmed the solutions. This week Ronald Reagan flies to Cancun, Mexico, to sit down with the leaders of seven other industrial powers and fourteen developing countries for an Unprecedented North-South summit meeting. NEWSWEEK'S cover story outlines the dimensions of the North-South gap and describes America's stakes in the South's battle for survival. Other stories analyze the different tactics of five Third World countries struggling for their economic lives.
BRAVA BIRGIT!: After an extremely lackluster start this season, New York City's Metropolitan Opera has triumphed with Richard Strauss's bizarre fable "Die Frau ohne Schatten"-and with the world's most powerful soprano: the indestructible BIRGIT NILSSON.
PINSTRIPE POWER: Overpowering Oakland, the New York Yankees won the American League pennant, muscled by a bullpen led by "Goose" Gossage (right). Their pinstripe pride presented a daunting World Series challenge to the National League champion.
A FLOURISH OF FIREPOWER: The forces released by Anwar Sadat's assassination continued to sweep the Middle East last week. The U.S. response was to promise increased arms shipments, but that failed to answer the key question: could the tensions be better addressed by political means? Separate stories examine President Hosni Mubarak's crackdown in Egypt and America's newest ally, Sudan.
SMALL IS BEAUTIFUL: It is now possible to write the entire Encyclopaedia Britannica on the head of a pin. This is only one of the wonders of the new Cornell laboratory for submicronic structures. The work may result in more sophisticated satellite transmissions, cheaper home-video discs-and perhaps even help in curing cancer.
