COVER: America's Best. Los Angeles OLYMPICS. CARL LEWIS. Cover: Photo by Ken Regan--Camera 5--ABC Sports.

TOP OF THE WEEK [Major Top Stories]:
THE DEMOCRATS: OFF TO A RUNNING START: Walter Mondale and Geraldine Ferraro accepted their historic nominations. The supporting cast of Mario Cuomo, Jesse Jackson and Edward Kennedy raised the roof. And against all odds, the Democrats took after Ronald Reagan with a flag-waving show of unity. This week's convention report chronicles a festival that managed to spur the party's election hopes and, says a NEWSWEEK Poll, to boost Mondale-Ferraro into an even match with Reagan-Bush--at least for now. Additional stories examine Mondale's crisis in waiting--his appointment of Bert Lance to a key campaign post; offer the skeptical view of Reagan strategist Lyn Nofziger, who covered the convention for NEWS-WEEK, and survey the Democrats lining up for 1988--just in case Mondale's balloon bursts in 1984. Page 18.

AT LONG LAST, THE GAMES: The Olympic torch carries the flame into the Los Arjgeles Coliseum this Saturday, and American prospects for gold medals are brighter than they have been for decades. The U.S. contingent, led by an explosive track-and-field team, strong swimmers and agile gymnasts, will take full advantage of the absence of the Soviet-bloc countries, Stiff competition is expedt-ed, however, from West Germany, Great Britain and, especially in the high-profile gymnastics events, the People's Republic of Chin. By flouting the Soviet boycott, Peking may well become the darling of the Games. Meanwhile, the Los Angeles Olympic Organizing Committee faces the challenge of mounting the private-sector spectacle at 23 sites spread out across southern California all the way from Santa Barbara to just north of San Diego. If smog and snarled traffic don't get in the way, the Games should succeed even without the boycotters, but a troubling question will remain: have politics and commercialism finally tarnished the ancient Olympic ideal beyond recognition? Page 32.

'NATIONALIZING' A BIG BANK?: Extraordinary federal guarantees and a multibillion-dollar safety net have failed to stem the outflow of deposits frOm Continental Illinois. With no other bank or private investor willing to attempt a rescue, the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation prepares to take over a major banking power. Page 86.

MASSACRE AT THE GOLDEN ARCHES: It wasjust another McDonald's outside San Diego--until a gunman stalked in to go "hunting humans." In 75 minutes of mayhem, James Huberty killed 21 people, the worst one-man, one-day massacre in U.S. history. A SWAT team felled him, ending his grudge against the world--and the miracle was that 10 people survived. Page 30.
