TOP OF THE WEEK:
WHO'S TAKING CARE OF OUR PARENTS?
With this week's issue, NEWSWEEK introduces a new section devoted to The Family. Its aim: to examine the problems, the pressures, the joys and the burdens of this sometimes battered yet always resilient institution. In this week's cover story, Senior Writer David Gelman explores the harrowing emotional, financial and social burdens involved as more and more children become parents to their aging parents. In general, children are coping well--sometimes heroically--in providing shelter, care and comfort to those who once nurtured them. But the toll is high: financial pressures, gnawing guilt and the the subtle fear that in a rapidly changing society their children may not be there to care for them in the future. As America grows older and families scatter across the country, the issues are sure to grow more complex--and the need to find new solutions more compelling.

ARGENTINA: THE GENERALS ON TRIAL: Nine former military commanders--in-cluding three past junta leaders--went on trial in Buenos Aires for their alleged roles in the "dirty war" of the 1970s. With President Raül Alfonsin facing mounting economic problems and lingering resistance to his democratic reforms, the trial offered a crucial test of the country's experiment with civilian government.

REAGAN: HEADING OFF TO BITBURG: This Sunday Ronald Reagan plans the most controversial side trip of his presidency: a visit to a cemetery where he will honor German war dead. Furor over the gesture continued to rage last week--and in addition, the president lost his latest bid for aid for Nicaragua's contra rebels. Suddenly it seemed that Reagan was reacting to events rather than orchestrating them.

DISPLAYING THE NEW FLEX APPEAL: Move over, Arnold Schwarzenegger: a new generation of female body-builders like Rachel McLish (left) is flexing its muscles. As many as 12,000 women will display bulging biceps and sharply defined deltoids in professional competition this year--some of them padded out with the help of steroids.

COKE TAMPERS WITH SUCCESS: It has been the most successful product in history, the undisputed leader of the $25 billion soft-drink industry. But now, after 99 profitable years, Coca-Cola is changing to a sweeter, smoother taste. A lot of Coke loyalists are grieving--but rival Pepsi-Cola is cheering, claiming it finally made The Giant blink.
