Playboy June 1982

COVER STORY It's a special month when we have a coverfold as well as a centerfold, but Shannon Tweed is a rare Playmate of the Year; she merits the extended welcome. Shannon, who is almost six feet tall, was inclined to recline for her cover shot, so Executive Art Director Tom Staebler suggested a two-pager to photographer David Goldner—that way, Shannon gets double coverage. For some uncoverage of Shannon, make your way to page 174. 5 PLAYBILL 11 THE WORLD OF PLAYBOY 15 DEAR PLAYBOY 21 VIEWPOINT: TAKE THIS WAR AND SHOVE IT ASA BABER 27 PLAYBOY AFTER HOURS Checking In with mediator Kenneth Moffett; camps for the au courant. 34 MOVIES Jill on pills is a downer, but Sean is well newscast. 42 BOOKS Famous people, fictional Catholics populate pages. 50 MUSIC A conversation with Bill Wyman; good stuff from Talking Heads and Weather Report. 59 COMING ATTRACTIONS Carter will impersonate Hayworth, Lange will play Farmer in forthcoming screen bios. 61 PLAYBOY'S TRAVEL GUIDE STEPHEN BIRNBAUM Stalk the girl of your dreams on an adventure trip 63 THE PLAYBOY ADVISOR 69 DEAR PLAYMATES 71 THE PLAYBOY FORUM 81 PLAYBOY INTERVIEW: SUGAR RAY LEONARD—candid conversation .. 81 The perfect pugilist throws a few jabs at his corporate image and discusses the coldest profession. 106 THE AYKROYD CHRONICLE—personality CAROL CALDWELL The surviving Blues Brother talks about John Belushi, pops off about his love for uniforms and defends his cataclysmic cinematic car and aircraft crashes—nobody knows the rubble he's seen. 111 FLOWER—pictorial Music is a fertile field and fame's a floral arrangement for this blooming model/songstress. 116 TO THE LETTER, HARRY—fiction JAMES MC CLURE S.D.P.D. stands for San Diego Police Department, not Stupid Detectives' Police Department—but you wouldn't know it by the way these two murder cases are going. 121 PLAYBOY'S GIFTS FOR DADS & GRADS—merchandise If it's time to pop for Pop or Pomp and Circumstance, here's paternal advice on the art of liberal giving. 125 LE ROY NEIMAN SKETCHBOOK—pictorial 126 HOLY TERROR—article FLO CONWAY and JIM SIEGELMAN Fundamentalist sects are using a spider's web of cult psychology to draw more and more converts into their clutches. 128 SPLASH WITH DASH—attire DAVID PLATT Here's how to look like a perfect son of a beach. 132 THE JAPANESE CONNECTION—drink EMANUEL GREENBERG The kamikaze is an American invention.
