...drawings of sport figures for more than 30 years, this is Mullin's first cover for TIME. To his nationally known roster of such characters as a mournful Dodger Bum, a cutlass-swinging Pittsburgh Pirate and a stein-hoisting Milwaukee Brave, Mullin, 66, has added a New York Met-looking a bit like a Little Leaguer but hustling along like a champion.

The cost of living is soaring and abrasive tensions between Zambia's blacks and whites (who constitute 1.5% of the population), are on the rise. Recognizing the importance of the mines to his country, Kaunda met two years ago with Chile's President Eduardo Frei to discuss an arrangement to help maintain world copper prices and quotas. Although no price-fixing agreement resulted from their talks, Frei's nationalization of the Chilean copper industry, beginning in 1967, probably stimulated Kaunda to take a similar...
