COVER: The UFO's are coming! Hollywood's "Close Encounters". THE UFO'S ARE COMING!: In the wake of
"Star Wars," Hollywood is releasing another science-fiction extravaganza, "Close Encounters of the Third
Kind," a spectacular $19 million film that deals with one of the oldest movie fantasies of all -- the arrival
on Earth of alien beings from outer space. Senior Editor Jack Kroll analyzes the luminous appeal of this
much awaited film and profiles its two leading creators -- 29-year-old director Steven Spielberg and
special-effects wizard Douglas Trumbull. An accompanying article discusses the current state of the highly
speculative science -- or art -- of UFOlogy.
TOP OF THE WEEK:
MOTHER IBM: Perhaps no other American company bestows as many benefits on its employees as IBM, the
world's largest computer maker. But IBM expects a lot in return: high on-the-job performance and, some
aver, off-the-job conformity. The womb- to-tomb corporate way of life is explored by Allan J. Mayer and
Michael Ruby.
A NEW GAME PLAN: Jimmy Carter went public with another televised talk on energy last week, but his
Administration was already turning to the key domestic issue of 1978: the nation's economic health. To
stimulate the economy, Carter will almost surely propose tax cuts, but first he must decide wheth- er to
reappoint Arthur F. Burns as Federal Reserve chairman.
CARTER'S ENVOYS: When he ran for President, Jimmy Carter promised to improve the caliber of America's
ambassadors -- and for the most part he has made good on that pledge. Newsweek assesses Carter's
choices and proffles five of the new envoys, including Kingman Brewster (left), formerly president of Yale
and now the ambassador to Britain.
EMERGENCY! Emergency medicine is fast becoming a specialty in itself -- and with good reason. Accidents
are the leading killer of people under 38. In bleaker days, many Americans lost their lives because of slow
or inept treatment. But now, thanks to a growing network of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) systems,
the death rate is going down.
