I received a few solutions that didn't work for me.  Thanks to those who wrote 
me. But a little plain TeX trickery did it nicely as follows:

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\setupheadertexts[text]
[][\CapStretch{INVESTING ON AUTOPILOT}\kern 1em\number\pageno\hfil]
[\number\pageno\kern 1em \CapStretch{ROBERT S. CABLE}\hfil][]
-------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since a centered header with page number included is a recurring requirement 
perhaps this should go in the wiki. Or perhaps not :<)

hmm, I prefear
 \setupheadertexts[text]%
[]%
[{\CapStretch{INVESTING ON AUTOPILOT}\kern 1em\number\pageno\hfil}]%
[{\number\pageno\kern 1em \CapStretch{ROBERT S. CABLE}\hfil}]%
[]%
%%%
or an "ascii-visual" code
 \setupheadertexts[text]%
[][{\CapStretch{INVESTING ON AUTOPILOT}\kern 1em\number\pageno\hfil}]%
[{\number\pageno\kern 1em \CapStretch{ROBERT S. CABLE}\hfil}][]%
%%%
I believe that with '{...}'  things are more robusts
(btw I don't see many differences from my '2 cents' )
