    Home News: On page 3 the full story behind the arms haul at Amsterdam

    airport. 7 DAYS tells how the British press has fallen for a

    lot of planted stories about the events at Schipol, and made

    a fool of itself.


    On page 4 an analysis, as the ‘great debate’ strains to its clim-

    ax, of what the Common Market really means. Also on this

    page a report of the trial of the Mangrove 9.

    On page 5 three reporters from 7 DAYS visit the City, in-

    terview the new Lord Mayor, expose the scandal of City

    Cash and report on the squalor of a Salvation Army doss

    house within the Square Mile.


    Industry: On page 6, our Industrial Correspondent points to the real

    struggle behind the EPTU rule book controversy.

    Capitalism ‘On _page 7 our City and Business correspondents show how

    so far as some sections of British finance capital are concer-

    ned we are already in Europe, and how for others it is only

    a matter of greasing the path.


    Photo-Feature: On October 18 the ‘Das Reich’ division of the SS, respons-

    ible for one of the most hideous massacres of the war, held

    a re-union party in Bavaria. They sang, drank and rememb-

    ered old times. They did not, presumably, talk about the

    old times at Oradour. 7 DAYS brings you the exclusive

    pictures of this atrocious banquet, taken by Henri Bureau/

    Gamma. See pages 9 and 10.


    Foreign News: On page 11 the 7 DAYS foreign staff report on the sell-

    out in Rhodesia and how the British government is betray-

    ing five million blacks. On page 12 they analyse the UN

    debates on China’s entry and give a run down on the Un-

    ited States’ arm-twisting tactics of the past 20 years.


    Sport: On page 14 our Sports reporter takes a look at Dolores

    Rocket, the fastest — and richest — dog in the world.

    Cockburn writes about violence, Tom Picton goes for a ride

    in a pig with the Army in Belfast and Ian Berry shows in

    pictures what a ‘riot’ in Derry was really about.


    Life: Tim Daly, imprisoned for bombing the Imperial War

    Museum, tells 7 DAYS what it is like to be ‘a new type of

    prisoner’ in Grendon Underwood psychiatric prison and

    Raymond West talks to other ‘patients’ thére.

    ‘What is happening to the Labour Party? Where are its new

    ideas? Can Wedgwood Eenn really be the answer. On page

    20 Tom Nairn answers these questions and examines the

    frightening vista of Labour Powellism.


    Ideas: Every week 7 DAYS will devote a page to the discussion

    - of ideas.-To open this series Gareth Stedman Jones shows

    that Marx was right 100 years ago and capitalism is still the

    exploitative system it has always been.


    Arts: Between pages 24 and 27 Stuart Hood talks about TV as

    industry, Peter Wollen reviews a new book on realism, Geoff-

    rey Nowell-Smith discusses ‘The Conformist’, Bertolucci’s

    new film and Dave Laing writes about the Hit Parade. We

    also review Charlie Gillett’s history of Rock, and in the first

    on another series John Mathews analyses the Ad of the week.


    Special Feature: For three months Peter Fuller and Jon Halliday have been

    looking at the world of the gambler. In Britain 45 million

    people stake £2000 million a year — much more than the

    country spends on health. Fuller and Halliday examine the

    forces, economic and sexual, behind this mass compulsion.

    All this is in the first, enlarged issue of 7 DAYS, Britain’s

    only photo-news weekly. From now on all our writers and

    photographers will be bringing you the same wide coverage.
