EVERYBODY'S SEARCH FOR ROOTS: A year ago Americans were lighting up the skies in celebration of their 200th birthday and looking toward the third century of the Republic. But lately, in unprecedented numbers, they have begun looking back and inward at their immigrant past- under the influence of Alex Haley's epic search for "Roots." Inwritingthis week's cover story, General Editor David Gelman took stock of his own Russian roots. Early one morning in 1914, a soldier startled his mother's family awake-and instead of shooting them, he snapped their picture. Later he mailed it to them. A year earlier, Gelman's mother, Rose, sat for a photo with her brother-a day after arriving at Ellis Island. The cover photo, from the Bettmann Archive, was tinted as a labor of love by Americo Lelio Domenico Giannicchi, 71, an immigrant New Yorker. "I had this photograph in front of me for two long days and nights," he said. "I got more energy by the hour in restoring the faces, the persons of my beloved people.". THE N-BOMB: Congress debated last week a proposed small, battlefield version of a doomsday weapon-the neutron bomb-that minimizes blast and kills with death rays. President Carter must now decide whether to go ahead with the weapon. GOLDEN GLUT: Another bumper wheat crop is ripening-and threatening financial ruin in the Farm Belt. Nicholas Proffitt visited growers and the gypsy-like "custom cutters" who follow the summer harvest. CLASS ON GRASS: Jimmy Connors was booed, Ilie Nastase made a naughty gesture and, worst of all, strawberries were in short supply and had to be shipped in from Italy. It was hardly an auspicious way for WIMBLEDON to begin its 100th birthday party last week-but the grand old institution wasn't about to start showing its age. Sports editor Pete Axthelm reports on the celebration and the bright crop of new stat4 who made Wimbledon look as youthful as ever. In a companion piece, he profiles the most talked-about player, 14-year-old Tracy Austin. NEWSWEEK LISTINGS: NATIONAL AFFAIRS: The Supreme Court and abortion: who pays?.
