THE DANGEROUS ARROGANCE OF THE NEW ELITE by David Lebedoff -- For the first time, the author contends, there is emerging in America an intelligent elite that genuinely mistrusts the basic tenets of democracy. The group came about when young people of high measured intelligence began to marry and associate exclusively with other young people of high measured intelligence. The group is convinced it knows better than any majority what's good for the country and what's not.

AMERICAN BEEF! STEAKS ARE HIGH, BUT RANCHERS ARE DOWN by Geoffrey Norman -- The cattlemen feel betrayed by the President's decision to import more beef. They say that an important American way of life is being endangered because Jimmy Carter wants to look better in the polls.

THE EARLY-MORNING LINE ON 1980 by Alan Baron -- Essential reading as the race for the presidency in 1980 begins. Who are the likely candidates on each side? What are the odds in each case? Learn the lineup and begin keeping score now. The early stretches are the most crucial.

HIGH-TECH by Joan Kron and Suzanne Slesin -- Here is the home-furnishing style that will have the biggest impact on your life in the '80s. It's based on what the authors call the "industrial aesthetic," and they tell you where it came from and where it's going. An excerpt from a forthcoming book, this feature and others to follow in Esquire will point out what to buy and do to be in the vanguard of the trend.

POLITICS: Will Carter Quit? by Richard Reeves -- It's maybe one in three that he will. But if he runs in 1980, it's because he's convinced the public now thinks no one can do a good job as President.

FULL DISCLOSURE: Sabbatical for a Superstar by Dan Dorfman -- Michael Steinhardt, who has made millions trading stocks, is leaving Wall Street for a year to find a new purpose in life.

THE LAW: Martyr to a Bum Rap by Steven Brill -- Thinking through the Myron Farber/New York Times case. If it began as a lawyer's ploy, was that ploy justifiable? And how much of the power of the First Amendment can survive?.

THE RIGHT STUFF by Suzanne Slesin and Anita Leclerc Esquire's guide to gear and gadgets.

TRAVEL: St-Tropez: Still Rich and Raunchy -- Photographs by Elliot Erwitt -- Things are jumping as usual at the least inhibited resort of them all.
But there's nothing usual about photographer Erwitt's ironic eye or the way he sees St.-Trop.

SEVEN TRUE OCCURRENCES OF LOVE AND MARRIAGE Collected by John Train -- You have to read them to believe.

PERSONAL FINANCE: "Worthless" Foreign Bonds by William Flanagan -- It just may be that you have a bonanza of sorts up in the attic in old foreign dollar bonds you thought had long since lost their value.

IS OUTPLACEMENT A CORPORATE GUILT TRIP? by Chris Welles -- Executives have always risked getting fired, but the newest wrinkle in corporate life is to give a fired executive help in getting a new job. The technique is called outplacement, and there are varied opinions about whether it's a good thing.

FASHION: Old-time Watches for New Vests by Max Evans -- Vests are in style, and.a pocket watch and chain are the perfect accessories.

TRAVEL: The Big Squeeze by Stephen Birnbaum -- Planes are crowded because of the new lower fares; the customer who's having the hardest and most uncomfortable time of it is the business traveler.

AUDIO: Re-Sounding Success by Anita Leclerc -- It has been a long time since there was an important new development in hi-fl. Quad systems weren't it. The new perfected time-delay units are.

SCENES FROM REAL LIFE by Stan Mack -- A Saturday morning squabble.
BACKSTAGE WITH ESQUIRE: Approaching the '80s IntroducingHlGH-TECH (page 40) and The NewElite (page 20) -- both hints of what's to come.
ANYTHING GOES by Edward Sorel -- Moral outrage in bed.
