here's one that does ...

\setuphead[section][number=no]

\starttext

\startchapter[title=foo]

     \placelist[section][criterium=local,order=title]

     \startsection[title={Beta}]  \input sapolsky \stopsection
     \startsection[title={Alpha}] \input sapolsky \stopsection
     \startsection[title={Gamma}] \input sapolsky \stopsection

\stopchapter

\stoptext

unknown
