TOP OF THE WEEK:
COVER: BROWN'S POP POLITICS: Jerry Brown and his rock-singing flame, Linda Ronstadt, were off on a safari through Africa last week--in utter disregard of the political consequences back home. Brown has successfully flouted convention before, and now he is about to run for the Presidency. His stirrings worry the White House, if only because they may bring Teddy Kennedy into the race.

GEORGE'S RAGE TO WIN: GEORGE M. STEINBRENNER III (below, with Thurman Munson, Ron Guidry and Reggie Jackson) doesn't like to lose--and seldom does. His New York Yankees have won the last two world championships, partly because of their owner's willingness to buy the best in baseball talent but mainly because of his fierce pride in staying on top. Pete Axthelm writes about Steinbrenner's complex personality: warmhearted and patriotic, intimidating and manipulative, he is an empire builder with a rage to win.
VERIFYING SALT: With a new strategic arms accord almost ready for signing, SALT foes have seized on the question of verification-- America's ability to use satellites and other methods to monitor Soviet compliance--as the agreement's most vulnerable point.
SAFIRE WORKS: WILLIAM SAFIRE, the quondam PR man and Nixon speechwriter, may be the most effective and controversial columnist in Washington. His New York Times Op-Ed columns, combining tough reporting with rhetorical Safireworks, have drawn sharp criticism and a broad readership--and won him a Pulitzer Prize for coverage of the Bert Lance scandal.
FRENCH FALL: In a wild Parisian extravaganza last week, designers like Yamamoto (creator of the neon jacket above) showed their fall ready-to-wear collections. The only weak point was the clothes. Even some designers don't take them seriously, and American buyers are learning that the things they see in fashion media events are often not what they get.
