COVER: CARL LEWIS: One Down! How Many More? America's Golden Girl, MARY LOU RETTON. COVER photos: Carl Lewis by Neil Leifer, Carl Lewis; Mary Lou Retton by James Drake and John Iacono.

COVER: In the glitter capital, the U.S. gathers a cluster of gold Almost too successfully for some tastes, America's Olympians flip, splash and pedal their way to an embarrassment of riches. From Gymnast Mary Lou Retton to Track Superstar Carl Lewis, the home team wins a slew of events, some for the first time ever. It is all so cheering that at times the chants of "U.S.A.! U.S.A.!" seem almost intemperate. See OLYMPICS.

NATION: Does the raging bull market 12 mean better times ahead for the U.S.? While Wall Street sizzles in the summer heat, the stock market catches fire and has its biggest day ever. P. With an eye on the coming election, Congress is absorbed in political gamesmanship. P. Richard Nixon, ten years after his resignation, continues to struggle for America's respect. o. The Democratic road show tours the South, but a beleaguered Bert Lance bows out.

WORLD: China and Britain make a deal on Hong Kong's future In their 19th round of talks, the two countries are close to a "historic agreement" that should allow the colony to retain its freewheeling capitalist style for at least 50 years after London turns sovereignty over to Peking in 1997. Responding to public pressure, the leaders of Israel's two main parties talk about a government of national unity. The Soviets chide East Germany.

OLYMPICS: With a final 10, Gymnast Mary Lou Retton wins the gold, while the U.S. men capture their first team title. West German Michael Gross is awesome, but U.S. swimmers also win a mess of medals. So do U.S. cyclists, while fencing makes for good theater. ABC covers it all with an excess of patriotism but undeniable quality.

MEDICINE: A major step toward producing a vaccine for malaria, man's ancient enemy, is reported by scientists. o, A famed surgeon makes a move.

MUSIC: The Santa Fe Opera gives the U.S. premiere of Hans Werner Henze's antiwar tract, We Come to the River, a theatrical blockbuster.

ECONOMY & BUSINESS: Europe is lagging in the high-technology race. to, Saudi cuts send oil prices into a slide. The EPA wants more lead out of gasoline.

THEATER: Britons complain that tickets cost too much, but for tourists who can take in those London stage hits, the price is right.

ENVIRONMENT: Utah tries to tame the swollen Great Salt Lake, which has flooded roads, destroyed property and endangered wildlife.

VIDEO: With the Olympics thoroughly disrupting ABC's daytime schedule, NBC and CBS are going all out to woo away soap-opera fans.
