COVER: BEVERLY SILLS: New High for an American Singer.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
BEVERLY SILLS at the Summit: The great prima donnas of our time--Callas, Tebaldi, Sutherland, Nilsson--have been join by an American girl from Brooklyn who is being acclaimed the world over as the greatest singing actress of them all. The story of Beverly Sills is so dramatic and human it sounds like fiction: great talent, great personal tragedy, great success. That success this week is climaxed by her personal triumph at Milan's La Scala, the pinnacle of the operatic world. Newsweek's Music editor Hubert Saal was on-scene to write his cover story about the child star Bubbles Silverman who became the great coloratura Beverly Sills.

WHEN WILL THE PRESIDENT MOVE? The Hundred Days were fast slipping by, and the Nixon Administration had yet to send Congress a single major proposal for curing the nation's domestic ills. Beleaguered mayors, Congressional leaders, and even some Republicans were wondering anxiously when the President's program would finally be unfurled. Senior Editor Peter Goldman and Newsweek's Washington bureau give some answers.

SPIES IN THE SKIES: While the eyes of the world have been looking the other way at manned spaceflights, another sort of drama has been unfolding for a select few. Hundreds of SPY SATELLITES--both American and Russian-- have been prowling the skies, photographing missile silos, eaves- dropping on military conversations, monitoring nuclear production plants. Newsweek Washington Science correspondent Evert Clark brings some of these spy satellites in from the cold and describes their military and possible peaceful uses.

THE BUST AT HARVARD: At dawn last Thursday, police swept into University Hall on the Harvard campus and routed student militants who had occupied the building. Some 197 students were arrested, and some heads were bloodied--but the real wounds may run deeper, and Harvard will never be quite the same again.

THE DRUG GENERATION: The use of drugs--from white diet pills that give a Dexedrine high to LSD capsules for mind-bending hallucinations--has spread through the youth population of the U.S. Marijuana can be found in the mess halls of Vietnam, at high schools--and, sometimes, at the elementary school. From reports by Newsweek bureaus, Education editor Peter A. Janssen explores the young drug culture.
