TOP OF THE WEEK:
A 'Guilty' Teddy Kennedy Weighs Quitting: U.S. Sen. Edward M. Kennedy stood, head bowed, in the tiny courtroom at Edgar-town, Mass., heard the charge against him read out and responded: "Guilty." Then, ten hours later, he went on national television, gave a dramatic account of his actions--and reactions-- on the night Mary Jo Kopechne went to her death (Chappaquiddick), and asked the voters of Massachusetts to help him decide if he should resign from the Senate. To evaluate the TV speech and its impact, and to assess the maze of further evidence, much of it conflicting, that continued to crop up, Newsweek drew on files from Washington bureau chief Mel Elfin, Boston bureau chief Frank Morgan, and correspondents Jayne Brumley and Jack Hubbard. The story was written by Senior Editor Peter Goldman. (Cover photo by Dennis Brack--Black Star.).
PICTURING THE MOONWALK: THREE OF A KIND: At first blush, the three versions of last week's historic cover (above) seem identical. Each shows Neil Armstrong walking on the moon. Yet they are different--as indicated by the slight variations in the area of the Newsweek logotype blocked by the astronaut. At U.S. headquarters and in London and Tokyo, where Newsweek's major international editions are published, photographers were assigned to shoot the moonwalking astronauts' TV images for late-closing covers. They took hundreds of shots. Though the sequence from which the final choice emerged lasted only a few seconds, each caught the same picture, and editors in the U.S., London and Tokyo singled it out inependently for the cover, then followed New York's lead on how to crop it. The result was the payoff on closely coordinated planning-- and yet a striking coincidence as well. This week, Newsweek reports on Apollo 11's triumphant splashdown with its precious cargo of the first moonmen--who promptly were quarantined--and samples of the lunar surface (page 14). Two pages of color photos, plus two special reports by scientists closely connected with the lunar program, round out the report.
NIXON IN ASIA: LOOKING PAST VIETNAM: Fresh from welcoming the Apollo astronauts back to earth, President Nixon set out on a ten-day journey that will take him to five Asian countries and Communist Rumania--and help him. formulate a post-Vietnam policy for the U.S. in Asia. To explore the shape of the policy, Newsweek called in reports from Washington correspondents Joel Blocker and Henry Trewhitt, who are traveling with the Presidential party. In addition, Everett Martin contributed from Manila, Bernard Krisher from Tokyo, Maynard Parker from Saigon and Lloyd Norman from Washington. From these reports, General Editor Robert Littell describes Mr. Nixon's attempt to scale down the U.S. commitment in Asia.
