COVER: Who's Teaching the Children? Carol Brown of Cedar Rapids. Cover: Ted Thai.

COVER: The blackboard jungle is fast evolving, and so is the role of teachers: They are blamed for the failures of American schools, accused of incompetence and expected to fill in for negligent parents, and they work under conditions few professionals would tolerate. "We are the mother, the teacher, the nurse, the doctor," says one classroom veteran. Still, many say the modern schoolhouse is a place not only of fears and frustrations but also of startling epiphanies and sublime rewards.

BUSINESS: Car buff Robert Stempel hopes to put a new shine on GM's image: Stempel, the leading candidate to succeed chairman Roger Smith, could be the man to engineer a turnaround at the lagging automaker. He has already given dealers and employees a much needed morale boost. Investors worry about debt as the bidding for RJR-Nabisco intensifies.

NATION: Voters can bid good riddance to the sour, trivial campaign of 1988: The Five P's of Poison Ivy Politics--the public, the process, the packagers, the polls and the press--bear collective responsibility for the nastiest campaign in memory. Congressman Lee Hamilton suggests requiring presidential nominees to address a single major issue each week. With her head held high, Imelda Marcos is arraigned.

WORLD: Israel's Likud, edging out Labor, courts the religious right for victory: With neither major party anywhere close to a Knesset majority, Shamir holds the most cards in the game of coalition politics. For those who advocate a negotiated Mideast settlement, election results offer scant encouragement. o. Indian paratroopers thwart an invasion of mercenaries in the far-off Maldives. m. Sergei Khru-shchev recounts the gripping tale of his father Nikita's downfall.

PRESS: The year of the made-for-TV campaign: Many network reporters and executives admit that in 1988 the candidates succeeded in manipulating the news. Now they are wondering what to do about it. A season of tepid endorsements.

INTERVIEW: Eugene McCarthy on Campaign '88: Running as a third-party candidate, he dismisses both Bush and Dukakis, urges the elimination of the vice presidency and praises the Reagan presidency.

VIDEO: TV's most-everything-ever mini-series is here: It cost $110 million to produce, will run for 32 hours, and could draw huge ratings. But War and Remembrance, ABC's lumbering sequel to The Winds of War, may be the last of a dying breed.

LAW: Tough women, fast cars: The Supreme Court hears the case of a "macho" woman accountant. Was she denied promotion because of sexual stereotypes obliging women to be sweeter? o. High-speed police chases--critics call them a public peril.

RELIGION: At 70, Billy Graham still isn't slowing down: With four decades and 2.2 million converts behind him--and with no successor in sight--the century's most popular Protestant is still working his civilized sawdust trail. Next stop: London.

ESSAY: Who says the voters are always right?: It is often correct for a citizen to suggest that those who vote differently are fools, dupes, underinformed or intellectually lazy. This holds true even when the other side wins.
