COVER: BONFIRE OF THE S&L's. How much will you pay. Are the banks next? Photo by Walter Wick, Inside Illustration By Daniel Kirk.

BONFIRE OF THE SAVINGS AND LOANS: While inept regulators fumbled to figure out what was going on and politicians looked the other way, the S&L crisis grew into the biggest financial scandal in U.S. history. The bailout price tag of $250 billion will cost every taxpayer and threatens to damage the entire economy. NEWSWEEK examines the lessons of the debacle--and assesses whether even bigger credit crises lie ahead. National Affairs: Page 20.

THE GOLDEN ARMS OF BASEBALL: Come the season, one of baseball's seductions is its ability to render prognostications wrong. This year, because of a shortened spring training, starting pitchers weren't supposed to be up to speed. Wrong! Led by Dave Stewart of the A's and Frank Viola of the Mets, the Boys of April have registered some remarkable performances. And, as always, there's Nolan Ryan. Lifestyle: Page 80.

MUSEUM TREASURES ON THE BLOCK: Astronomical auction prices make it nearly impossible for fine art museums to stay in the collecting game. Many museums are fighting back with a highly controversial tactic: they select a few of their own top-quality masterworks to put on the block. At this month's auctions, New York's Guggenheim Museum hopes to make millions by selling off a Kandinsky, a Chagall and a Modigliani. The Arts: Page 88.
