COVER: The Day it Rained Money. And more true tales of New York. Cover: Illustration by Frank Morris.

True Tales of New York There are 7 million stories in the naked city (the last time anyone counted) , and here are 26 of them. Stories of joy and sorrow, love and hate, good and evil. They are all about life as it's actually lived here, and they're all by our readers, God bless them.

They Remember Bess By Michael VerMeulen Bess Myerson's campaign for the Senate has a lot of things going for it: a candidate better known than most professional politicians, the support of the state's top Democrats, and a million-dollar budget for TV advertising. And there's the hope Myerson inspires: If a Bronx girl can grow up to be Miss America and maybe a senator, anything can happen in the USA.

The Invisible Man By Rinker Buck Queens District Attorney John Santucci, a dedicated, hardworking public servant, spends long days at his office. Which would be fine, except that he too is running for the Democratic Senate nomination--though really not all that hard.

On the Prowl With Ugly George By Blythe Babyak The Ugly George Hour is shown on both of New York's cable-TV networks three nights a week. George goes out on the streets and gets girls to go into shadowy halls and take their clothes off. Why do they do it? Why does he do it? Blythe Babyak kept her clothes on and got the story.

DEPARTMENTS:
Media: A Real Doomsday Book About New York By Philip Nobile The plot of what's likely to be one of the year's hit books features an H-bomb planted in Greenwich Village to blackmail the United States. Sounds implausible, but it's based on some excellent reporting by veteran writers Larry Collins and Dominique Lapierre.
City Lights: The Boat People of Newport By Marie Brenner The America's Cup Race happens every three years, and at Newport, where American crews are competing for the right! to represent this country, it is a flourish of money, chic, and trauma.
Music: Plenty of Sugar in the City of Salt By Alan Rich The Salzburg Festival, as usual, did all right by its native son. Our traveling music man hated the restrictive dress code at the concerts but found plenty of unbuttoned pleasure elsewhere in town.
Books: The Road to Ruin By Julia Vitullo-Martin and C. D. B. Bryan On the costly good intentions of the mayors of New York, and the latest--but not the greatest--novel from Peter De Vries.
Theater: Craft and Art By John Simon Thoughts evoked by the Peking Opera's visit and a trio of revivals.
Movies: Beware! Beware! By David Denby Xanadu is a fantasy that surpasses belief. Smokey and the Bandit II is a sequel that never gets started. Scum is a strong, often funny, but ultimately numbing look at life in a British reform school.
Wine: Central Coasting-- California's New Wineries By Alexis Bespaloff Pioneering grape growers are producing some excellent and distinctive wines.
