COVER: DRUGS on the Job.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
DRUGS ON THE JOB:
The use of illegal drugs on the job has become a crisis for American business. They cost $16.6 billion in lost productivity alone and hurt American industry's ability to compete with other countries. Most of the users are not addicts but respectable executives who take a toot of cocaine in the morning, secretaries who share a joint at lunch and night-shift workers who gulp amphetamines to keep going. "It's the biggest problem in industry today," says one manager. "Nothing else is even in second place." Now
business is finally starting to fight back.
FUN HOUSE FEVER:
Almost every night, hundreds of teen-agers break dance till dawn at the Fun House. The New York disco has become a testing ground for record companies, influencing what the rest of
America hears.
THE DROUGHT OF '83:
From Indiana to Texas, a drought is turning the nation's breadbasket into a disaster area. Last week, as forecasts of more dry weather sent corn prices soaring, experts predicted the smallest harvest in nearly a decade. That could mean higher food prices in 1984--and a wave of consumer disenchantment with Ronald Reagan's farm policies in the coming presidential
election.
KADDAFI STRIKES SOUTH:
Muammar Kaddafi's forces swept into northern Chad, seizing the town of Faya-Largeau and pressing south. The latest turn in Chad's civil war cast Paris and Washington in an awkward Alphonse and Gaston act, each wanting the other to stop Kaddafi. France sent paratroopers and warned Libya to stay out of southern Chad. That left the next move
to Kaddafi.
PALATE POWER IN BERKELEY:
Eating well has become the Berkeley radical's best revenge. The erstwhile symbol of student revolt is now a gourmet capital flush with Parisian bakeries (right), cheese shops and first-rate
restaurants.
