COVER: ANATOMY of a RIPOFF. THE HUD SCANDAL. Cover: Paper sculpture by Sally Vitsky. Photo by Ed Gallucci.

HUD: ANATOMY OF A RIPOFF: For sheer hypocrisy and cynicism, few scandals can match the revelations of fraud and mismanagement at HUD. During the Reagan years a parade of influential Republicans became rich or more powerful exploiting housing programs designed to help the poor. The total loss to the taxpayer may run up to $8 billion, but the full extent of the damage won't be known until former HUD secretary Samuel Pierce and his executive assistant, Deborah Gore Dean, appear again before Congress. National Affairs: Page 16.

HEAVY SCENE IN HOLLYWOOD: Heavy metal used to be the scourge of America's pop scene, but now bone-jangling metal songs are the anthems of grade schoolers and grown-ups. Aspiring rockers from small towns across the country, lured by the news that their favorite brand of rock is busting charts and making names, are flocking to Hollywood's Metal Mecca. But reality can be a rude slap. The Arts: Page 56.

DESPERATION DRUGS: Frustrated AIDS patients. and other people with life-threatening diseases are pushing the medical establishment to relax the rules and lower the barriers that keep promising drugs from people with no other alternatives. Critics charge that such changes in long-established testing procedures may sacrifice science on the altar of compassion. Society: Page 48.
