COVE: Don't Go Near the Water. Our Polluted Oceans. Cover: Photo by Sudhir.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
COASTLINES IN CRISIS: Tides bearing hypodermic needles and vials of blood are spoiling the fun for bathers on New York's Staten Island and in the elegant Hamp-tons. The "black mayonnaise" at the bottom of Boston Harbor contains not only human sewage but high concentrations of toxic PCB's. And the tidal flats of Commencement Bay in the Pacific Northwest are loaded with copper, lead, zinc and arsenic as well as petrochemicals. In short, environmentalists assert, the continuing pollution of U.S. coastal waters has become a full-blown national crisis. Society: Page 42.

A CAMPAIGN DOGFIGHT: With the Democratic convention behind him and his party in precarious unity, Michael Dukakis launched his campaign--which figured to be a dogfight with George Bush. Both sides had reasons for getting personal, but Dukakis wanted a fight both to avoid discussing his vulnerable areas and to keep his own liberals from rebelling at his new suburban strategy. A portfolio of exclusive photographs takes readers backstage at the convention. National Affairs: Page 14.

CEASE-FIRE: Exhausted, demoralized and impoverished, Iran last week sought a cease-fire in its eight-year-old war with Iraq. The Iraqis responded by attacking Iranian territory along a broad front, but they also had good reason for bringing the bloodshed to an end as quickly as possible. International: Page 28.

ON A ROLL: From Hilton Head, S.C., Amarillo, Texas, and even Guatemala and Mexico, the Winnebago Warriors and Custom Coaches filed into South Bend, Ind., last week for the 25th Anniversary Celebration of the Family Motor Coach Association. The 4,600 owners of motor-home "land yachts" swapped tales of the open road and attended seminars on such practical topics as "Potpourri Wall Hanging and Crafts to Do While Traveling." Lifestyle: Page 58.

TOON VIDEOS: Who says cartoons are just for kids? Lots of grown-ups get up on Saturday to watch Bugs Bunny. Now the classics can be seen on home videos. Among them: Betty Boop in "She Wronged Him Right" and Bugs in his musical tribute "What's Opera, Doc?" Entertainment: Page 50.
