...problem is posed by the Viet Nam war, which is creating thousands of widows who must grapple with grief. In an effort to help them, a Navy psychiatrist at Camp Pendleton, Calif., has set up a program that uses their common tragedy to turn them toward the future. A teacher of group therapy at U.C.L.A. before entering the service, Lieut. Commander Leonard Zunin launched "Operation Second Life" with the idea that the best help for widows can come from other widows.

A homeowner can weed out the worst contractors by consulting his local Better Business Bureau, and the BBB can sometimes prod a contractor to correct faulty work. Most of the time, however, the harried homeowner must trust to hunch-and luck...
