COVER: TV's hot serials. Cliff ROBERTSON, Jason ROBARDS and Robert VAUGHN in 'WASHINGTON'.
TOP OF THE WEEK:
TELEVISION'S SWITCH TO SERIALS: The phenomenal impact of "Roots" on American television has caused a profound change in
TV's prime-time programing. For the first time in twenty years, sitcoms and shoot-'em-ups will face stiff competition
this fall from multipart mini-series such as "Washington," starring Jason Robards as a megalomaniacal President (left).
Most of the mini-series are serializations of best-selling novels or re-creations of historic events. Television editor Harry
F. Waters reports on the new "long form," assesses TV's ratings scramble and reviews this autumn's weekly series. He
also previews the capital performance and complex plots in "Washington." (Cover photo by Gene Trindl -- ABC
Television.)
BILLIE SOL ESTES: He went to jail a dozen years ago for his role in one of the most publicized swindles of the century. Texan
Billie Sol Estes is out on parole today, but his name keeps popping up in new cases and officials suspect that he may
be up to his old tricks again.
CUP SCHLOCK: Ritzy old Newport is beginning to look for all the world like Coney Island. The prestigious America's Cup yacht
race has attracted hucksters of everything from Scotch whisky to $9 T shirts. Cup officials concede that they aren't
completely happy with the rampant commercialism, but insist that the pitches are necessary to help meet costs.
PEACE PLAN: U.S. Ambassador Andrew Young and British Foreign Secretary David Owen toured southern Africa last week
with a new Anglo-American plan for a Rhodesian settlement. Their proposals, calling for a six-month transition to black
majority rule, found little favor in Salisbury or Pretoria. South Africa also firmly denied French and Soviet allegations
that it was about to test a nuclear explosive.
RADICALS REVISITED: What ever became of the Movement -- the rebel young who marched against war and segregation in the
'60s? Newsweek's Gerald C. Lubenow, who covered them then, revisited their leaders and together with Senior Editor
Peter Goldman, who joined him for a talk with ex-Black Panther Bobby Scale, reports on where they are now.
AT THE FRONT: Reporters covering the war between Ethiopia and Somalia got their first look at the disputed Ogaden region
last week. Elizabeth Peer (above) visited the Somali-controlled territory and talked with victorious guerrillas.
