Eckert believes his ability to "play the game out" in his mind has been a large contributor to his success. The ability to anticipate what is going to happen allows Eckert to position himself properly, for example, or to set a teammate up for the perfect shot...
OLIVIA RISS PEEBLES, 7, who drew the headline lettering for our cover and our inside story, may be TIME's youngest contributor. A second-grader at St. Luke's School in New York City, Olivia began painting as a toddler. "I like to make my own pictures, not copy them, because that makes them really mine," she says. Art is just one of her passions. Among the others: her Abyssinian cat Horatio, cooking pizza and cakes, swimming, modern dance and rock 'n' roll. "I go crazy for the Beatles," says Olivia.

KUNEN, the author of this week's disquieting cover story on resegregation, has been writing vividly about social issues since, at 19, he penned The Strawberry Statement, a best-selling account of Columbia University's 1968 student strike against the Vietnam War. A TIME contributor since last October, Kunen spent many hours visiting classrooms in Kansas City, Missouri, and Norfolk, Virginia, observing students and teachers wrestling with the problems posed by separate but unequal education.
