COVER: AGONY of the BOAT PEOPLE. Cover: Photo by Jean Pierre Laffont-Sygma.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
AGONY OF THE BOAT PEOPLE: They huddle in tattered fishing boats on the perilous swells of the South China Sea. They crowd into fetid camps all across Southeast Asia waiting-without much hope so far- for someone to give them a home. Their numbers are growing alarmingly every day, but the agony of the "boat people" and other refugees from Vietnam, Cambodia and Laos has finally begun to stir the conscience of the world. The latest waves, mostly ethnic Chinese from Vietnam, have been driven out to sea by what appears to be a deliberate policy of the Hanoi government. Other Asian countries, their resources overstrained already, have begun to turn them away. The relative few who have made it to permanent homes in the United States have adjusted well, for the most part. But less fortunate boat people may yet be consumed by the worst human tragedy since the World War II Holocaust. Page 42.

SOMOZA'S LAST STAND? The Carter Administration finally called for the ouster of Nicaraguan dictator Anastasio Somoza Debayle (right) last week and proposed an international peace-keeping force to help end the country's "war of national destruction." A chorus of Latin American nations angrily condemned the U.S. suggestion, but there was a new urgency to find a solution to Nicaragua's bloody civil war. Civilian casualties climbed into the hundreds, a U.S. TV reporter was brutally executed by a Nicaraguan soldier-and U.S. officials reported new evidence of Cuban aid to the Sandinista guerrillas. Page 38.

ENERGY PLAGUE: The nation's energy problems keep multiplying. Truckers angry at diesel-fuel prices are in violent rebellion. Motorists seeking gas must now contend with an odd-even rationing plan. And this week, OPEC will raise oil prices again. Washington is finally beginning to respond, but there will be little relief this sunimer. Page 22.

MUPPET MAGIC: What would summer be like without a new James Bond movie or a cliffhanger starring Clint Eastwood? Those two giants have new, sure-fire hits, but they may nevertheless be outclassed by some performers named Kermit and Miss Piggy, * who are making their triumphant big-screen debut in "The Muppet Movie." Page 67.
