The final results hinge on the
margin Shapiro. beats Stempien
on the local absentee ballots left
to be counted. Those results will
not be known until morning.
Postill, after a hard-fought and
occasionally v i c i o u s primary
race, ran away from second
place Harold Moon by a vote of
7,388 to 3,466. Ypsilanti Town-
ship Constable Richard Horn fin-
ished a poor third.
Despite heavy opposition by
Moon and from local media, Pos-
till scored major gains in vir-
tually every precinct in the
County.
Postill beat Moon badly in the
predominantly stiident areas of
Ann Arbor. In fact, according to
unofficial returns, Postill won
every precinct in the city except
one-Ward One, precinct one-
where Moon beat Postill by 13
votes.
County-wide Postill won all of
the 150 precincts except perhaps
20.
The key to Postill's success
was to declare himself a candi-
date early and to work hard at
getting students to sign for ab-
sentee ballots. His attacks on
Sheriff Doug Harvey, whom he
will battle in November, also
brought his name to prominence
in the county.
In November, Postill will face

on ballot
DETROIT l) - Legal require-
ments satisfied, U.S. Sen. Robert
Griffin and Atty. Gen. Frank
Kelley can launch full-scale cam-
paign bids today for Griffin's
job as Michigan's junior senator.
Both men readily fulfilled the
legal need to obtain at least one
vote in yesterday's party pri-
maries. Neither had opposition in
seeking his party's nomination.
With 43 per cent of the state's
votes counted, Griffin had polled
226,964 votes. Meanwhile, Kelley
had 162,413.
N e it h e r candidate bothered
staying in Michigan yesterday.
"Gee, I don't know where he
(Griffin) is," said state GOP
Chairman William McLaughlin
late yesterday. "I assume he's
in Washington. I suppose he'll be
back Friday." The U.S, Senate
was in session last night.
Kelley was in New York on
business yesterday, his daughter
said. He was due home today.
Kelley and Griffin have spent
the past ew weeks taking poli-
tical potshots at each other-al-
most all of them on the busing
issue.

can Sheriff's primary, and pos-
sibly a Human Rights Party can-
didate.
With the majority of the ab-
sentee ballots from Ann Arbor
not yet counted, Bullard seems
to have closely won the Demo-
cratic 53rd District State Repre-
sentative nomination from four
other liberal candidates. Bullard
is expected to add to his winning
total when the returns are in
from the absentee ballots.
Bullard, at last count, was
ahead with 2,426 votes. Closely
trailing were Helen Forsyth, a
law student, with 1,872 and Peter
Eckstein, an economist, with
1,909 votes.
Those absentee ballots al-
ready counted show Bullard
received the majority of those
votes.
Bullard, a local attorney, has
also managed to get notable
newspaper publicity by defend-
ing numerous local radical
causes.
As the campaign heated up
in recent weeks, Bullard came
under attack from various lo-
cal groups for claiming affilia-

tight race
Lion with them. Those groups,
notably the Ann Arbor Ten-
ants Union and the local chap-
ter of the Vietnam Veterans
Against the War, (VVAW) cri-
ticized Bullard for using their
names to support his "substan-
tial record of activism".
Bullard ' s major competi-
tion in November will come
from the Human Rights Party.
The Republicans are given lit-
tle chance to win the predomi-
nately left-liberal student dis-
trict.

Some of the world's present-

Urchins in the grim Belfast

has simmered between the two

Kids on both sides roam the

troopers at rioters nearby.
Parents are frightened. The
case of Bernadette, 11, is typi-
cal. She is a chirpy blonde mop-
pet who lives in the riotous
Andersonstown district of Bel-
fast. She loves the riots that
swirl outside her door.
"I cannot control her at all,"
says her mother, haggard and
jumpy from the violence and
the constant fear her seven
children will get hurt.
"Bernadette hears the soldiers
coming, and she's off to shout
at them or pick up stones for
her brothers to throw. She'll
get killed one day."
But for every one of the baby-
faced rioters, there is a child
who is frightened by the orgy of
bombing, shooting and rioting.
These are nervous wrecks,
afraid even to go into the streets
to play. Doctors report many
burst into tears when they hear
thunder. They think it is a
bomb.
