Judge Spellman's ruling was is- sued late last month in Miami where many of the Haitians have been incarc- erated. - YOU PROMISED omeday, you said, you would 4) give yourself the lifestyle you've earned.

AMITAY WASHINGTON — Here is a look at some of the in- teresting U.S. Senate races in the November elections: MICHIGAN — Incum- bent Democratic Senator Don Riegle was thought to have a serious re-elction problem at this time last year. The changing economic situation in Michigan and the failure of popular Republican Gover- nor William Milliken to enter the race have com- bined to make re-election much more likely for Riegle. The GOP frontrunner is former U.S. Rep. Phil Ruppe, who did not distin- guish himself as a particu- lar friend of Israel. Riegle, on the other hand, has built a record of strong support for a close U.S.-Israel partnership with vocal op- position to arms sales to Is- rael's foes and support for U.S. foreign aid to Israel. While the Michigan race is far from over, most analysts believe that Riegle will win. MARYLAND — The re- election campaign of Demo- cratic Senator Paul Sar- banes is one race of unusual importance. Sarbanes is an important and influential member of the Senate Foreign Relations Commit- tee and its subcommittee on the Near East. After the loss in 1980 of three friends from the com- mittee, Church, Javits, and Stone, the Sarbanes race emerges as a high priority. The major GOP chal- lenger in the September primary is former U.S. Rep. Larry Hogan. Judging from Hogan's record in the House, he is not expected to be particularly favorable. The Sarbanes race has been targeted by many na- tional conservative, groups, who will pour a lot of money into Maryland to defeat Sarbanes. Hogan is ex- pected to wage a vigorous campaign, but Sarbanes is the favorite. MASSACHUSETTS — Senator Edward Kennedy is running for re-election to a fourth term in the Senate. While his victory is not in doubt, Kennedy will put a great deal of effort into the campaign to enhance his status as a contender for the 1984 Democratic President- ial' nomination. A long-time supporter of Israel, Kennedy has been Morale Boosters from U.S. Tom Hayden and his wife, actress Jane Fonda, are shown upon arriving in Israel recently as part of "Shalom to Israel '82" in which celebrities entertain Israeli soldiers in bases and hospitals in northern Is- rael. very active in the last few years opposing arms sales to Israel's foes and supporting a strong U.S.-Israel rela- tionship. Kennedy is challenged by Republican businessman- inventor Raymond Shamie. In his last Senate race Ken- nedy won with 70 percent of the vote, and political analysts will be looking at the size of his margin on election night. MINNESOTA — In- cumbent Republican Senator David Durenberger is running for re-election after filling the unexpired term of the late Hubert Humphrey for the past four years. The Sept. 14 Democ- ratic primary will most likely see department store heir Mark Dayton emerge as the challenger. Duren- berger has built a solid re- cord of support for legisla- tion favorable to closer U.S.-Israel ties and actively opposed the F-15 enhance- ment package of Saudi Arabia. Durenberger is consi- dered a "corner" in GOP cir- cles and holds a command- ing lead at this time in the polls. However, the race is expected to tighten up. MISSISSIPPI — In a state where political analysts have tended to concede the Senate election to 25-year Democratic vete- ran Senator John Stennis, a new GOP candidate, Haley Balbour, vice chairman of the Mississippi GOP, is rais- ing significant funds for his campaign and has sought to build a relationship with Mississippi's small but ac- tive Jewish community. Stennis has always gone down the line with the in- cumbent Administration on Middle East policy, and has not been accessible. Stennis' age and Repuglican inroads in Mississippi could make this an interesting race. MISSOURI — First term Republican Senator John Danforth is running for re- election and is a heavy favo- rite in this generally Demo- cratic state. He has an out- standing record on issues of concern to the American Jewish community, with the exception of his vote in favor of the 1978 sale of F-15s to Saudi Arabis, which he has described as his toughest vote. In 1981 Danforth re versed himself and strongly opposed the sale of AWACS and F-15 enhancement equipment to the Saudis. There are 11 Democrats entered in the Aug. 3 prim- ary, with Jewish State Senator Harriet Woods emerging as the early fron- trunner. NEBRASKA — First term Jewish Senator Ed Zorinsky (D) is running for re-election in Nebraska. A member of the Senate Foreign Relations Commit- tee, Zorinsky is being chal- lenged by former Vice Commander of the Strategic Air Command James Keck (R). Zorinsky is one of the two Jewish Senators who voted in favor of the sale of AWACS and F-15 en- hancement equipment to Saudi Arabia. In Zorinsky's case, it was especially odd after his vote against the sale in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee before the floor vote. Last fall, Keck also an- nounced his support for the AWACS sale, but he has in- dicated he would vote for foreign aid. Zorinsky has consistently voted against foreign aid. Zorinsky is clearly ahead at this point.
