TOP OF THE WEEK:
COVER STORY: THE POWER IN THE PENTAGON: He awes and sometimes angers Congress; he impresses and occasionally antagonizes businessmen; he directs and now and then infuriates the military; he is increasingly called the Assistant President. His influence is everywhere Visible in Washington, but, most of all, Robert S. McNamara is the man who has transformed the U.S. defense establishment, coordinated the nation's nuclear striking force with its foreign policy -- and borne chief responsibility for the conduct of the war in Vietnam. As McNamara prepared to fly last week with George Ball to the NATO meeting in Paris, and then on to Vietnam, at his side was Newsweek's veteran Pentagon correspondent Lloyd H. Norman (photo), who has covered McNa. mara from his first day in office five years ago. From Norman's files and reports by other Newsweek staffers, General Editor Dwight Martin wrote the cover story.

INSTANT MIRROR OF HISTORY: Never in the annals of the Republic has so much been known so soon about a President and his Presidency. The instant historians of John F. Kennedy's history-conscious Administration have already begun publishing the record -- first Ted Sorensen with "Kennedy," now Arthur Schlesinger Jr. with "A Thousand Days." Associate Editor Edward Kosner, who reviewed Sorensen for Newsweek two months ago and found his book disappointing, examines Schlesinger's this week -- and tells why he thinks it is a memorable achievement.

'WITH-IT': "In Britain, the really In People claim they would rather be Out while those who are Out want very badly to be In," says London bureau chief Sheward Hagerty (photo), who reports on the With-It Society. Fortunately, Hagerty holds solid credentials with the In group. Last spring, for a cover story on model Jean Shrimpton (Newsweek, May 10) Hagerty lived for two weeks in the world of high fashion, became well acquainted with the "Shrimp' ' -- a leader of the "With-It Society' ' -- and with many of her "switched-on" friends. But the assignment apparently did not convert Hagerty: "I suppose I'm switched off, really," he says.

PROJECT HEADSTART: CHRISTMAS '65: From New York's Fifth Avenue to San Francisco's Stockton Street, the decorations are shining. And the message is already clear: it promises to be the biggest Christmas ever, topping last year's $27.7 billion sales record. This is the year of the $550 silver watering can and $300 lace handkerchief, and affluent Americans are scampering to spend -- earlier than ever before. From correspondents around the country, Associate Editor Peter Landau writes the Spotlight on Business.
