COVER: The New Etiquette; The Making of a Militant by Ernest Dunbar;The Death of Harold: Letters from the Depression.

"CRAZY WAR, ISN'T IT?" By Arturo F. Gonzalez, Jr. -- For the 18,000 British troops in Ulster, patrolling -- on toot or in armored "pigs' -- is a risky and often bloody duty. In their oft-duty hours, however, the young soldiers live it up with the teen-aged daughters of IRA men and Protestant hardhats alike, for in Belfast the British Army offers the only night life in town.

THE PRICE OF A LIFE By Reginald L White -- As the author points out, there's a scale. Some people's lives are valued at $33 each; others go for $300,000.

HOBO HOEDOWN By Dan Carlinsky -- Meet Lord Open Road, Pennsylvania Kid, and Hard Rock Kid, three of the front runners for King of the Hobos at this year's National Hobo Convention.

EDITORIAL: Redirecting Europe's Future By Ronald P. Kriss -- In Helsinki and Geneva, Berlin and London, and even Lausanne, the future course of the Continent may well be redirected in the months ahead.

THE SOCIETY:

THE MAKING OF A MILITANT By Ernest Dunbar -- "I couldn't fit the two images together," writes the author. "Nothing about Richard Henry. the quiet, earnest youth I had known in my old South Philadelphia neighborhood, allowed me to accept his metamorphosis into man Abubakari Obadele, cop killer."

BUZZ OFF, MS. POST, IT'S TIME FOR THE NEW ETIQUETTE By Raymond Sokolov -- "Now that the old etiquette is out of date," declares the author, "it is high time to rewrite Emily Post." He begins by coping with eight sticky situations.

CREATIVE (AND MOSTLY UPPER-MIDDLE- CLASS) PLAYTHINGS By Thomas Meehan -- This pioneer toymaker rejects realism in favor of semiabstract shapes that exercise the imagination. The maker claims its toys are the best on the market. Yet the purposeful -- and costly -- things of Creative Playthings Inc. have made some parents feel anxious.

THE DEATH OF HAROLD Edited by David F. Ward -- "Old letters, fading with age, have a singular and perpetual charm," writes the discoverer and editor of this collection of letters written during the Depression. "But never have I known any as revealing and poignant as the collection of old letters -- tied together with a rubber band and preserved in a small wooden box -- I recently found in the attic of an abandoned house in Eureka, Kansas."
