COVER: "WOMEN in the MILITARY. Should they be Drafted?" Cover: Photo of Pvt. Tina Doty, Fort Jackson, S.C., by Mike Keza-Gamina-Liaison.
TOP OF THE WEEK:
SHOULD WOMEN BE DRAFTED? Jimmy Carter shattered 204 years of U.S. military tradition last week when he proposed that women as well as men register for the draft. The idea has set off a nationwide controversy and it faces trouble in Congress. But to a surprising degree, the armed forces have already integrated thousands of women. NEWSWEEK'S cover package, which includes an opinion poll, exammes the role of women in the military. Page 34.
DESPERATE HOURS: Through 36 hours of rage last week, the New Mexico state prison erupted in a sadistic display of convictagainst-convict violence that left 33 dead and renewed concern about how U.S. society warehouses its felons. An accompanying story reports on the failures of American prisons and why riots like Santa Fe could well happen again. Page 66.
GOLD IN THE COLD: In the shadow of the proposed boycott of the Moscow Games, the Winter Olympics opens this week at Lake Placid, N.Y. America's hearts will belong to gold-medal hopeful Eric Heiden and his equally gold-minded sister, Beth. Pairs skaters Tai Babilonia and Randy Gardner (left) hope to edge their Russian rivals, and tiny Linda Fratianne plans to put on a dazzling performance. Page 90.
OPERATION ABSCAM: Over the past year, FBI agents posing as representatives of wealthy Arabs have conducted an extensive investigation into corruption of public officials. ABSCAM (for Arab scam) raises questions about the ethics of seven congressmen and one U.S. senator-and about the elaborate "sting" in which they were involved. Page 30.
THE LUMINISTS: Once scorned as mere "calendar art," American landscape painting of the late nineteenth century is enjoying a huge revival. Scholars have coined the term "luminism" for the lightfilled vistas of such artists as Frederic Church and Fitz Hugh Lane, and the National Gallery in Washington, D.C., has opened a dazzling show of their work. Page 114.
