him of getting carried away.
His idea of relaxation is work-
ing on the third edition of his
book Medicolegal Investiga-
tion of Death. He also enjoys
his role as a professor in the
pathology department of
Wayne State University
School of Medicine, and ad-
junct professor of chemistry at
the University of Windsor.
"I also like to walk and
sight-see while traveling
around the country to lecture
or testify," Spitz said," and I
love to sit and talk to people.
I have a row boat and I like to
go fishing. I can give a speech
in front of 1,000 people, but
I'm shy when I meet new peo-
ple."

Asked to describe his per-
sonality, Spitz replied, "it
depends on who you talk to. I
think I'm a great guy."
"He really is a great guy,"
insists Diane Boger, a
medical examiner depart-
ment supervisor. "Stern and
serious is the side the outside
world sees. But under his
tough exterior beats the heart
of a very gentle person.
"He's not only nice, he's
compassionate. After the
crash he was as much involv-
ed with the families, hurt as
they were. He's dedicated and
energetic, in fact, his energy
keeps every one else going.
"He might roar like a lion,
but inside he's a pussycat."

POLITICS'

Six Senate Contests
Bear Watching In '88

MORRIS J. AMITAY

W

ith the 1988 elec-
tions just a year
away, the major
focus has been on all the can-
didates for the presidency.
However, there are a number
of important Senate contests
which friends of Israel are
already watching closely.
Mounting budget deficits
and increasing demands to
cut foreign aid programs,
make it essential that the
Congress continue to support
the adequate aid levels for
Israel and maintain its op-
position to unrestrained sales
of sophisticated U.S. weapons
to Israel's forces. This means
that the American Jewish
community must maintain a
high level of involvement in
next year's congressional
elections, most particularly
the U.S. Senate.
In New York, Sen. Pat
Moynihan, a long-time field
going back to his days as Am-
bassador to the United Na-
tions, is seeking reelection to
his third six-year term. It has
been written about Moynihan
that "when it comes to in-
tellectual sophistication,
erudition and lifelong
scholarly output, there has
been no one like Moynihan in
the Senate in modern times."
Time and time again
Moynihan has spoken out elo-
quently on behalf of Israel
and has been the moving
force behind such initiatives
as calling for moving the
American Embassy in Israel
from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.
Originally, it was thought
that he would not face a
serious reelection challenge.
However, interest in running
has recently been displayed

Moynihan: Eloquent

by Rudolph Giuliani, U.S. at-
torney for the southern
district of New York, who has
received a great deal of
publicity over the past year
for his prosecution of mafia
and Wall Street figures.
In Ohio, Howard Metzen-
baum faces a potentially dif-
ficult race should the
moderate Republican mayor
of Cleveland, George
Voinovich, win the
Republican nomination for
Metzenbaum's seat. Metzen-
baum has been intimately in-
volved in all issues affecting
Israel. Most recently, he was
instrumental in getting the
Administration to agree to
significantly reduce the latest
U.S. arms sale to Saudi
Arabia. Long before he came
to the Senate, Metzenbaum
was a preeminent leader in
the Cleveland Jewish com-
munity. With a Voinovich
candidacy expected to cut in-
to Metzenbaum's traditional
political base in Cleveland,
this contest could become a
cause for concern and a max-
imum effort will be called for
on Metzenbaum's behalf by
friends of Israel.
