...forms in TIME, the smallest are the pictorial symbols. Usually less than one inch square, these graphic illustrations appear at the beginning of two or more stories that are related thematically. The elements of last month's cover package on Madonna, for example, were linked by a symbol representing her slinky, peek-a-boo belly button. For this week's cover stories on the Administration's tax program, a hand pouring coins into Uncle Sam's hat is employed.

I put a hat on and pulled it down low, but I stepped onto the curb and one person said, "There's Madonna," and then everybody said, "There's Madonna." We started walking down the street looking in windows and watching some jazz groups, and the more we walked, the more people started to follow us. The people don't want to hurt me. They just want to be near me. Actually it hasn't gotten to the point...
