COVER: Is INFLATION out of control? Cover photo by Ed Gallucci.

TOP OF THE WEEK:
THE INFLATION QUAGMIRE: There had been early warning signals aplenty, but even so, the experts had trouble digesting last week's economic shocks: consumer prices rose at the most rapid rate in,. six years and interest rates shot up to once unimaginable levels. White House aides admitted that the inflation rate seemed out of control, and plummeting bond markets reflected investor fears that Washington has neither the resolve nor the resources to set things right. Administration officials scrambled to prepare a new package of anti-inflation initiatives. But critics argue that the crisis demands draconian measures, perhaps even wage and price controls.

THE IRAN WATCH: A U.N. commission flew to Teheran to hear Iran's grievances against the Shah. But Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini left the release of the U.S. hostages up to Iran's Parliament, which may not sit until April.

THE SAUDIS CLOSE RANKS: Saudi Arabia's King Khalid fell ill last week, prompting speculation that the oil-rich kingdom's throne would soon pass to Crown Prince Fahd, shown here during an exclusive interview with NEWSWEEK'S Paul Martin. The change would come just as the vast Saudi royal family has closed ranks to face serious new challenges to its rule.

FIRE ON ICE: Blades flashing, American athletes scored stunning triumphs in the Winter Olympics. Speed skater Eric Heiden (above) won a record five gold medals, and the underdog U.S. hockey team --mostly college kids--won the nation's hearts by beating the mighty Soviets.

A PLAGUE OF RAIN AND MUD: A foot of rain struck and southern California last week, causing devastating mudslides and flash floods. More than a score of people were killed, hundreds of homes were destroyed and thousands of families evacuated.
