COVER: How to Stay Married. The Divorce Rate drops as couples try harder to stay together. Cover: Illustration by Edward Koren.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
STAYING TOGETHER The institution of marriage has been through rough times, but Americans haven't given up on it. After rising sharply in the 1970s, the divorce rate is dropping. The high emotional costs of breaking up have forced many couples to try harder to stay together. And they are looking for new ways to resolve the inevitable conflicts of married life. Lifestyle: Page 52.

MINE SCARE: The latest threat from Iran, antiquated mines, bobbed up in the Persian Gulf and nearby aters. One commercial ship was sunk and another was damaged, putting the U.S. Navy on the spot. International: Page 22.

THE BATTLE OVER BARK: The fight to confirm Robert H. Bork's Supreme Court nomination promises to be "the main event of this Congress," says one leading player. For some, it is mainly presidential politics. But for the nation, it will affect the social agenda into the next century. National Affairs: Page 12.

HEAT WAVE: It's not just the weather that's been steamy this month. The films of August are heating up movie screens with sizzling encounters that may be the last glorious gasp of unsafe cinematic sex. Jennifer Grey. 'Dirty Dancing' The Arts: Page 60.

THE LAST GREAT PARK: fter more than five decades of controversy, a 77,000-acre chunk of Nevada wilderness was finally dedicated as America's 49th national park last week--the first national park to be established in 15 years. Great Basin National Park, whose bristlecone pines are the oldest living things on the planet, is ecologically unique--and achingly beautiful. National Affairs: Page 16.
