...impressed with Artist Marvin Mattelson's cover illustration. The way he designed the latticework of missiles, alternating menacing (red) with protective (blue), was intriguing. Unfortunately, we have allowed these missiles to become part of our existence when in reality they are limiting our freedom and threatening to destroy us. John Wiersum Arlington Heights, III. Man of the Year...
...this week's cover, TIME correspondents talked to scores of expectant mothers in clinics, schools, teen centers, adoption agencies and welfare offices. Angela Helton, 15, the blue-eyed blond on our cover, attends the Teenage Parent Program of the Jefferson County, Ky., public schools and is now the mother of a son, Corey.

He comes on as a Broadway blusterer, yet claims he never goes to "commercial pap" like Cats and Dreamgirls. Then what's he doing writing for a blue-collar tabloid? Your other co-workers are more credible. Your boss (James Farentino) seems to hate spunkiness as much as Lou Grant did. And Jo (Katey Sagal), the cynical columnist, couldn't be a better foil if she had been invented by TV comedy writers...
