...prepared by a team of writers, correspondents and researchers, headed by Senior Editor Robert Shnayerson, a veteran of many TIME departments. Shnayerson was long-time Education editor before he helped to start TIME'S present Law section, and is now responsible for editing TIME'S Essay. His writing staff included Associate Editors Timothy Foote and Gary Clarke, and Contributing Editors Lance Morrow, Christopher Cory and Philip Herrera, along with TIME'S former London Bureau Chief Robert T.

While pointing out the problems that the country faces, TIME'S editors are happy to be able to offer a generous helping of what many think of as at least a partial remedy for the ills of the world: poetry. This week the entire Books section is devoted to a thorough survey of contemporary U.S. poetry-a look at the modern school and what has been developing over the past decade. All the reviews were written by Contributing Editor George Dickerson, himself a poet, whose work has been published in a variety of magazines, including Mademoiselle...
Largely because of the widening gulf between the reality of Catholic turmoil and L'Osservatore Romano's version of it, the paper has lately come in for some strong and pointed criticism.

Paul himself maintains a close personal relationship with L'Osservatore. He occasionally telephones Manzini, and sometimes reads proof on exceptionally important stories. When doing so, the Pope makes corrections in red ink and adds his personal comments, also in red ink, in the margins...
...paper's editors readily admit to their lack of impartiality. "Freedom of the press is one of the natural and fundamental rights of the human person," declares L'Osservatore's second-in-command, Federico Alessandrini, 63. "But the church does not admit the same degree of liberty for the true and the false, for the moral and the immoral." Editor in Chief Manzini defends his approach to the birth-control controversy with a particularly beguiling argument. Criticism of Humanae Vitae has been played up so much elsfewhere, he maintains, that L'Osservatore must be one-sided...
