...Inquirer, which has developed into one of the nation's leading papers under Executive Editor Eugene Roberts, led the field with three awards. (Its third was for a feature story by Steve Twomey about life aboard an aircraft carrier.) The New York Times won two: one for its coverage of the aftermath of the space shuttle Challenger disaster and another for reporting by Alex S. Jones on the breakup of the Bingham family's Louisville newspaper empire. The / Los Angeles Times also took two prizes: for Michael Parks' reports from South Africa and Richard Eder's book criticism. Charles Krauthammer...
...first the plan seemed like pie in the sky: the 7,000 pilots of United Airlines, the country's wobbly No. 2 carrier, proposed that United's 60,000 employees buy the carrier for $4.5 billion. But with that as an invitation, more seasoned corporate gate-crashers quickly stepped in. By week's end the skies around United were far from friendly, as the possibility of a substantial if confusing takeover play developed around the carrier's parent company, which is changing its name later this month from UAL Inc. to Allegis. Whatever happens next, there is no doubt that...
...level security breaches are notoriously difficult to detect and control, as the Navy learned from the Walker spy case, when a yeoman aboard the aircraft carrier Nimitz also stole classified materials from burn bags. Indeed, it is by no means certain that the Moscow operation ended with the departure of Lonetree and Bracy. Investigators wonder how the two Marines could have carried on love affairs unnoticed within the embassy's close confines. They suspect that the relationships were known but tolerated by others who may have had similar experiences. In fact, Bracy was demoted from sergeant to corporal for violating...
...personal risk to Zagury was probably quite small. The vaccine he used, based on the work of NIH Immunologist Bernard Moss, contained only a tiny portion of genetic material from the AIDS virus. This material was inserted into the genes of a larger, harmless virus, which served as a carrier. (The larger virus was vaccinia, once commonly used to prevent smallpox.) When tested in baboons and a chimp for one year, this hybrid stimulated the animals to produce antibodies not only to vaccinia but to the AIDS virus, with no apparent side effects...
...miles outside the city, could not be higher: an Iranian victory would demoralize the Iraqis and could topple Iraqi President Saddam Hussein, whom Iranian Leader Ayatullah Ruhollah Khomeini has vowed to crush. The global importance of the war was shown anew last week when the U.S. aircraft carrier Kitty Hawk moved to within striking distance of newly installed Iranian missile batteries that threaten shipping lanes in the Persian Gulf. Though Basra is usually closed to Western reporters, Dean Fischer, TIME's Cairo bureau chief, visited the devastated city last week. His report...
