How to make Air Traffic safer. Cover: Photo by Chris Sorensen. TOP OF THE WEEK [Major Top Stories]: FOUL BEACHES: This summer's seas are swamped with waste. Currents have left flotsam on the Texas shore and bathed New Jersey and California swimmers with sewage--and germs. Will anything be done? Society: Page 50. A PLAGUE OF VIDEO PIRATES: With Hollywood now making more money from video casttes than ticket sales or television, video piracy has turned into big business, a modern form of bootlegging. An estimated 15 percent of all videotapes sold and rented in the United States are illegal copies, and ripoffs are an even bigger share of the market abroad. The movie studios have hired special agents and are employing new technology to catch the thieves, but the copycats are proving nearly impossible to stop. Business: Page 40. A MAGNIFICANT THROWBACK: How do you celebrate the 25th anniversary of James Bond on the big screen? With a new Bond flick, called "The Living Daylights," and a new 007, Timothy Dalton, who is the fourth incarnation of the espionage hero. The Arts: Page 56. ACCEPTING THE BLAME: The buck stops here, with me," said Adm. John Poindexter. With that, the Iran-contra committee's search for a "smoking gun" seemed over, and there was relief in the White House. But the hearings weren't over, and the damage to Ronald Reagan was already done. National Affairs: Page 14. YEAR OF THE NEAR MISS: America's air-travel system is in trouble. Reports of close calls are running at an average of more than one a day, and errors by controllers are on the rise. The public's tolerance for cattle-car conditions and horrendous delays is wearing thin. The root of the problem is airline deregulation, which has caused an explosion in traffic. Proposed solutions range from reregulation of the airlines to turning the Federal Aviation Administration into a quasi-public corporation, free of political pressures and control.
