COVER: The DRUG warrior. He's ambitious abrasive and tough. Can he make a difference? WILLIAM BENNETT. Cover: Photo by Arthur Grace.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
AMERICA'S DRUG WARRIOR: Can William Bennett win the drug war? A former secretary of education, onetime college football player and lifelong rock-and-roll fan, America's new drug czar is an ambitious, impatient man with a taste for the bully pulpit and a mission many people think is impossible. Bennett's challenge is to resolve the confusion over the drug war and to present a strategy that will make a dent in the problem. A companion piece examines the turf battles that plague the U.S. government's tangled drug bureaucracy. National Affairs: Page 20.

A SOVIET NYET: The Soviet Union held its first contested elections in 71 years, and the Communist Party establishment was clearly the loser. The stunning rejection of the party's old guard seemed to signal strong support for Mikhail Gorbachev's perestroika campaign. But by introducing politics to the Soviet people, Gorbachev courted increased conservative opposition and a new political challenge from the left. International: Page 34.

ARSENIO HALL'S LATE ARRIVAL: e-e-e-e-e-e-e-e-ere's Arsenio! After just three months on the air, Arsenio Hall has become second only to Johnny Carson on late-night TV. The 30-year-old comedian-actor--nighttime's first black talk-show host--has leapfrogged past David Letterman and Pat Sajak in the ratings. He's done it with a loose, funky approach that appeals to teens and young trendies. Lifestyle: Page 68.

OIL AND WATER: The wreck of the Exxon Valdez produced the worst oil spill ever in North America. It ruined a pristine Alaskan coast and raised new doubts about the oil firms' ability to control such disasters. Society: Page 54.

PAY BALL! It's baseball season again--time to see if the game's big stars measure up to their huge salaries. NEWSWEEK offers a behind-scenes look at how the highest-paid player of all, Orel Hershiser of the Dodgers, won his new $7.9 million contract. Business: Page 42.
