NEWS I NEW! THE JEWISH NEWS Regatta Held In Tel Aviv Tel Aviv (JTA) — About 50 yachts, power and sail, plowed through choppy seas from Tel Aviv to Jaffa last week in a gala regatta that belied the fact that Tel Aviv remains under threat of Ira- qi missile attack. It was not a race but a "pass-in-review" to salute Tel Aviv, which has suffered casualties and extensive property damage from Scud missile attacks since Jan. 18. Mayor Shlomo Lahat sounded the starting signal with a blast of an air horn on a yacht. The participants included the U.S. ambassador to Israel, William Brown, an avid yachtsman, who reach- ed the marina just in time for a meeting with Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir in Jerusalem. Mr. Brown said that since the Persian Gulf war started he has spent his days "commuting between Area 1 and Area 3," the civil defense designations for Greater Tel Aviv, where the embassy is located, and Jerusalem, the seat of government. The police have only re- cently allowed yacht owners to return to the marina. For the two previous weeks, the yachts were confined to their moorings.

In making the announce- ment during testimony before the House Foreign Af- fairs Committee, Mr. Baker acknowledged reports that the State Department had been leaning toward the idea of releasing the guarantees in three installments. But doing so would have created additional delays beyond the current ones blocking U.S. release of the guarantees, the secretary said. He said Israel has yet to provide the United States with promised technical data on "the Israeli housing sector and plans for immi- grant absorption." Mr. Baker said his department is continuing to follow up.
