...gold can be perilous. Says Clayton Yeutter, president of the Chicago Mercantile Exchange, a leading gold futures market: "As the price enters the stratosphere, the risks become extraordinary. If you look over the edge from here, it's a long way down." Even if there is no great plunge, the small investor especially can find himself paying more than he figured for his bullion. When buying or selling coins, for example, dealers commonly add a charge amounting to 5% or more of the market price. Thus someone who bought a Krugerrand when gold was at $380 last week would...
...that cowboy in wrap-around sunglasses? Can it be the Lone Ranger? Clayton Moore, 64, who long played the daring rider of the plains, has been restrained by court order from using the trademark mask in nostalgia appearances.

The yardstick for the role remains Clayton Corzatte--who moved, spoke and sang to perfection...
...Knob mountain, near Boone, N.C., the world's largest windmill is about to start producing electricity for up to 500 homes. Costing $6 million, it has two 100-ft. propeller blades, which will generate power for about 180 per kw. A similar looking but smaller model in Clayton, N, Mex., produces electricity for more than half the town's 3,000 residents...
