COVER: Saving Our Schools. A scathing report demands better teachers and tougher standards. High School Students in North Carolina. The Storm over the Hitler Diaries. Central America: Reagan Vs Congress. Cover: Photo by Neal Slavin.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
CAN AMERICA'S SCHOOLS BE SAVED? America is in trouble, according to a searing new study by The National Commission on Excellence in Education. It found teachers woefully inadequate and warned that students not only compare poorly with those in other nations, they are worse off than previous generations. But the public is now rallying to the cause of quality and the long climb back to excellence has begun.

THE STORM OVER THE HITLER DIARIES: At a chaotic press conference in Hamburg, Stern magazine took the seals off Hitler's purported secret diaries. No sooner did reporter Gerd Hei-demann (right) flourish the volumes aloft than Stern's own authenticator, British historian Hugh Trevor-Roper, admitted he had doubts about them. Stern editors stayed by their scoop. But the credibility gap widened as historians demanded new tests to verify the diaries.

REAGAN'S CENTRAL AMERICA PLEA: Ronald Reagan went before a joint session of Congress to make a dramatic sales pitch for his Central America policies. But the administration's aid proposals were still in trouble on Capitol Hill. The president called for a "bold, generous approach" to solving the region's problems, and a NEWSWEEK Poll measures public support for Reagan's stance on Central America.

THE SHULTZ SHUTTLE: U.S. Secretary of State George Shultz flew to the Middle East, buoyed with optimism about his chances of wrapping up an agreement on the withdrawal of Israeli troops from Lebanon. He made some progress, but Shultz's shuttle could run into difficulty when it comes to persuading Syria to pull its forces out, too.

GOLDEN ARM FOR HIRE: Stanford golden boy John Elway has always managed to look like a winner, but last week the 22-year-old quarterback momentarily lost control of his destiny. Drafted by the Baltimore Colts, Elway vowed to forgo football rather than join the last-place team and may end up swapping his helmet for a baseball cap.
