COVER: Comedy's New Face: STEVE MARTIN is one Wild and Crazy guy.
TOP OF THE WEEK:
BEGIN AND CARTER: BLUNT TALK: After a stern confrontation between President Carter and Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin last week, U.S.-Israeli ties were more strained than ever, Mideast peace prospects were dimmer and Begin faced mounting trouble at home. In a close-up look at the Mideast (page 39), Newsweek chronicles the arrival of U.N. peace-keepers in Lebanon and provides an exclusive interview with Yasir Arafat. And George F. Will criticizes Carter's Mideast policies as "consistently wrong".
COVER STORY: GOOD HUMOR: The hottest new comedian in America likes to weave weird balloon hats for himself and dance across the stage in a fit of "happy feet." If it sounds like the silly season is upon us, perhaps it is. Steve Martin--and fellow comics Chevy Chase and Martin Mull--represent a reaction against the comedy of relevance. They are the Good Humor men, clean-cut zanies who simply want their audiences to have a good time. Tony Schwartz reports. (Newsweek cover photo by Harold Krieger.)
THE GREAT WALLENDA: After 57 years of thrilling stunts on the high wire, Karl Wallenda, 73, plunged 120 feet to his death last week. With him died one of the greatest legends of romance and tragedy the circus has ever known.
OIL GAMBLE: After four years of hassles, drilling for oil on the East Coast's continental shelf finally began last week. For an energy-hungry imation--and potential oil-boom cities ashore--the payoff could be a gusher.
DON QUIXOTE: Dancer MIKHAIL BARYSHNIKOV is also a gifted choreographer, and the most recent evidence is his new staging of "Don Quixote," a century-old ballet. In his hands it becomes a fast-paced and tremendously cheerful festival of dance. Baryshnikov himself, who dances the male lead, has never performed with greater freedom, and Gelsey Kirkland is in many ways hisperfect partner--precise, quick and scintillating fearless, and with energy. Photo Caption: Baryshnikov on point.
