These heroines include a murder victim (Diane Keaton in "Looking for Mr. Goodbar"), middle-aged ballerinas (Shirley MacLaine and Anne Bancroft in "The Turning Point") and, most prominently, Jane Fonda and Vanessa Redgrave in an adaptation of Lillian Hellman's "Julia." Senior Editor Jack Kroll analyzes this major shift in movies and profiles the actress on whom most depends-- Jane Fonda. (Cover photo by Eva Sereny--Sygma.). ABUSED KIDS: They have bruises, fractures, burns and frightened eyes; some of them are dead. Half a million cases of child abuse were reported last year, and that's only half the real toll. SPUTNIK + 20: Twenty years ago this week, the Soviets stunned the world by launching Sputnik. The U.S., fearful that Russia was surging ahead in all areas of science and technology, poured billions into new programs. How do the two countries stack up at Sputnik plus 20? In a seven-page Special Report, Newsweek's Moscow bureau chief Fred Coleman and a team of correspondents present their findings. FREDDIE: Freddie Laker's Skytrain was a flying party on its first trip from London to New York. But passengers who had lined up for days to get tickets found empty seats on the plane--and more on later trips. Can Skytrain and Freddie survive?. HUNTING PERKS: Jimmy Carter has postponed sending his tax-reform package to Congress, but he remains determined to crack down on executive "perks"--starting with the "$50 Martini lunch." But Congress may find it's no easy matter to distinguish the boondoggles from the real boons to business. BIKO'S BURIAL: Despite efforts by police to keep them away, 15,000 South Africans gathered to bury Steven Biko, the black nationalist who died mysteriously in jail. The sight of Biko's battered body touched off rioting-- which may foreshadow a turn to urban terrorism. CONTENTS/INDEX: NATIONAL AFFAIRS: The Great Energy Debate. How the Hill views Carter.
