TOP OF THE WEEK [Major Top Stories]: AMERICA'S OLYMPIC HOPEFULS GEAR UP FOR 1984: With this issue, NEWSWEEK introduces a new department, THE OLYMPICS, which will follow America's best athletes to the 1984 Summer and Winter games in Los Angeles and Sarajevo, Yugoslavia. This week's stQry reports on America's new- found confidence in its ability to compete internationally. The optimism is based on a bumper crop of U.S. hopefuls, including Carl Lewis (right) and Mary Decker, and on a more realistic approach to the big business of amateur sports.Page 74. CASE OF THE PURLOINED PAPERS: The controversy over documents from Jimmy Carter's camp that were obtained by the Reagan staff during the 1980 presidential campaign heated up last week. White House staff members released a blizzard of Carter documents from their files, and the FBI began investigating just how the Reagan campaign got hold of the papers in the first place.Page 20. IBM GOES ON THE OFFENSIVE: Although it is less than two years old, IBM's Personal Computer has taken the market by storm. While independent firms race to devise new products for the PC, IBM'scom-petitors are being outgunned. Yet small computers are only a part of IBM's drive to dominate markets in the information age. As the company applies its formidable research and marketing power to new technologies, AT&T and Japan Inc. face a serious challenge.Page 56. WHAT THE WORLD THINKS OF AMERICA: Loved, hated, misunderstood--and imitated--America remains the inescapable country. Its movies, pop music and especially TV have bypassed the traditional avenues of exchange between nations. A NEWS-WEEK Poll shows that citizens of six countries, on three continents, believe U.S. influence abroad is on the rise. Another finding: foreigners perceive Americans as a good and productive people with an erratic or even dangerous government. Page 44.
