James Warren arrived as the Washington bureau chief of The Chicago Tribune just a year ago. But Mr. Warren, who is 41, is already getting quite a name for himself. For example, "I don't call that serious journalism" was the evaluation of Mr. Warren's weekly column by the columnist Robert Novak, one of dozens of prominent journalists regularly skewered by Mr. Warren in The Tribune.

Martin Luther said once that if he were God he would kick the world to pieces, and who doesn't know what he meant. Only, these days we're so good at kicking the world to pieces ourselves that we hardly need God for the job. It's not so much the terrible things that are decimating us -- Bosnia, Haiti, Angola, AIDS, homelessness, crime and the rest of it -- because, as Thornton Wilder pointed out long ago, we always manage somehow to survive the terrible things by the skin of our teeth. It is rather our obsession with the terrible things. News has come to mean almost exclusively bad news, and the badness of it has got into our blood.

HARTFORD: A LAB FOR COMBATING GANGS Like any city where gangs have run rampant, Hartford has taken a beating in the last few years. In response, Connecticut's capital has become a virtual laboratory for methods of quelling gang violence. Its efforts include a joint Federal, state and local task force, a beefed-up gang prosecution unit and many police officers working lots of overtime. It is emphasizing after-school and recreational programs and has an institute to mediate gang disputes. In one experiment, a member of the city's largest gang, Los Solidos, makes $25,000 a year as youth coordinator for the Hartford Housing Authority. His job is to steer street toughs to after-school programs and away from drugs and the gang life. Page 1.

THE Bosnian war is increasingly invisible. Its most recent crises, at Bihac in western Bosnia and Gorazde in the east, have had enormous repercussions around the world, but the two small towns themselves have remained lost in the fog of second-hand reporting. Western journalists, almost without exception, have been unable to get there. The result is troubling, and the reports sometimes baffling. Serbian forces advance and advance and advance across towns you can drive through in five minutes. Villages are taken, then retaken by the same army a few days later. Casualty figures swing wildly, reported by local witnesses who may be hunkered down in their basements or distant from the scene.

The Young Lions -- The saxophonists Joshua Redman and James Carter got into a slash-and-burn cutting competition at the Iridium in Manhattan in September. Two completely different conceptions were served up by two players performing at a very high level of improvisation, even if they were young and not completely formed. It was a sign, written in powerful language, that the jazz renaissance was heating up.

Hopes that an American helicopter pilot being held by North Korea would be freed by Christmas seemed to evaporate today when the United States and North Korea were unable to agree on holding further talks on his release. The American side had been expecting to meet on Saturday in Panmunjom, on the border between South Korea and North Korea. Contacts between the two sides continued into the night and up until midday today, but North Korea did not consent to a meeting, a spokesman for the United States military in South Korea said.
