Dorgan's successor as tax commissioner, Democrat Kent Conrad has continued to move up on Andrews exploiting farm discontent and leads by a few points in this poll. Almost the lone bright spot for the Republicans in this round of surveying is Missouri, where former Gov.

Christopher (Kit) Bond leads Democratic Lt. Gov. Harriett D. Woods by 9 points to succeed retiring Sen. Thomas F.

Eagleton, A second potential GOP gain is in Colorado, where GOP Rep. Ken Kramer is dead-even with Democratic Rep. Timothy E. Wirth for the seat Sen. Gary Hart, is giving up to pursue his presidential plans.

The other three "tossup" races all represent opportunities for Democratic gains. In North Carolina, former Democratic Gov. Terry Sanford was 8 points up on appointed Republican Sen. James T. Broyhill among likely voters, but, reflecting the uncertainty of the race, Broyhill had a miniscule lead among all registered voters in the poll.

In South Dakota, a state Democrats have rated one of their best pickup hopes, this poll showed Republican Sen. James Abdnor who survived a tough primary, just ahead of Democratic Rep. Thomas A. Daschle. But in Washington, which went on the GOP worry list only after last month's primary, Sen.

Slade Gorton, was a hair behind former representative Brock Adams, D-Wash. Colorado, North Carolina, South Dakota and Washington are states which could be tipped by the slightest trend in the final days of campaigning or by anomalies in the turnout. And the closeness of the battle, for Senate control is measured by the fact that if Republicans won the struggle in Colorado and re-elected their incumbents in the other three "tossup" races, they could hold the Senate even with Democrats taking every other seat in the country where they are ahead in this poll. The result, under those assumptions, would be a 50-50 split which Vice President Bush could break in favor of the GOP. Despite all the attention to "negative ads" in this campaign, two-thirds of those interviewed said they are voting mainly to express support for their favored candidate, not dislike of the opponent.

But the pattern varied significantly from state to state. In Florida, where both Hawkins and Graham have been in highly visible offices in recent years, the "anti" vote is barely more than one-quarter of the support for either candidate. But in California, where the challenger, Rep. Ed Zschau, is not that well known to voters, two-thirds of Zschau's supporters say they are voting mainly against Sen. Alan Cranston, D-Calif.

In many states without unusually close Senate races, the number of completed interviews with very probable voters was insufficient to do more than categorize the gubernatorial contest as close or lopsided. From Page 1A races Nationally, he said, 45 percent of the voters polled said they were "not strong supporters" of the candidate they favored in the poll. As in a similar poll of House districts a bit earlier, this survey showed that President Reagan and his policies are a major factor in the Senate fight and certainly a major prop to GOP hopes for retaining control of that half of Congress. Among the 53 percent of the electorate who like both Reagan and his policies, Republican Senate candidates are winning by a 63-26 percent margin. Democratic candidates lead in the other 47 percent of the electorate, made up of voters who dislike either the president or his program or both.

But the single strongest link to the Senate vote appears to be the constituent's feeling about the course of the economy and there the trend favors the Democrats. The margin of difference between those who think the economy is getting worse (35 percent) and those who think it is getting better (25 percent) is greater now than at any time since the end of the 1981-82 recession, i Among those who think economic conditions are improving, Republican candidates led 61-32 percent; among the larger group who think they see deterioration, Democrats had a 66-29 percent advantage. Among those who see things staying the same, Republicans led 49-35 percent, and this group many of them undecided can be influenced strongly by economic news between now and Election Day. The Post-ABC News surveys each a separate poll of an individual state showed the distinctive patterns of the off-year election, strongly influenced by local and personality factors. Maryland, where Rep.

Barbara A. Mikulski, is opposing former White House aide Linda Chavez, a Republican, for the seat of retiring Sen. Charles McC. Mathias, is the likeliest Democratic pickup, as it has been for months. In Florida, another seat the Democrats have targeted for over a year, Democratic Gov.

Bob Graham led Sen. Paula Hawkins, by 11 points. More surprising is the fact that in Senate races in Idaho and Nevada, two states where Reagan piled up huge majorities and retains high popularity, Democratic challengers have pulled slightly ahead of Republicans closely identified with the president. In Idaho, Democratic Gov. John V.

Evans has opened a 7-point lead over Republican Sen. Steven D. Symms. In Nevada, Democratic Rep. Harry Reid has a 9-point edge on former Republican Rep.

Jim Santini for the seat of retiring Sen. Paul Laxalt, R-Nev. But perhaps the greatest reversal of early expectations has occurred in North Dakota, where Sen. Mark Andrews, relaxed after Rep. Byron L.

Dorgan, decided Rapid rescue Michael J. Viscosi, of Scotia, N.Y., left, and Harry J. Kallet, of Syracuse, N.Y, fought the waters of the upper rapids of Niagara Falls Thursday before being rescued by police. The college students hoped to be the first duo over Niagara Falls in a barrel, but bailed out and clung for an hour to a rocky outcropping. Officials said the rock was the only thing separating them from a 176-foot plunge.

At right can be seen the damaged barrel. Niagara State Parks officials said Viscosi and Kallet face disorderly conduct charges. Goldfarb From Page 1A stunned by his father's release. The younger Goldfarb, an Israeli who left the Soviet Union 11 years ago, said his father drank champagne aboard Hammer's plane and watched the movie "My Fair Lady." Hammer, who has often acted as an intermediary between the Kremlin and U.S. administrations, had been in the Soviet Union since last weekend on business and to open an exhibit of his art collection in Kiev.

Hammer, who Alex Goldfarb said "really saved my father's life," said on Wednesday he asked Anatoly Dobrynin, secretary of the Communist Party in Moscow, for permission to take Goldfarb to the United States Thursday. Dobrynin said no at first, but called back within a few hours and gave permission. Hammer said he believed Dobrynin cleared the release with Soviet Party Chairman Mikhail S. Gorbachev. "He simply had to get the OK from higher ups," Hammer said.

"Without Gorbachev, it could not have happened." Hammer said he then met with Soviet doctors, who told him Goldfarb had a miraculous recovery during the past week. "Previously there was concern he would lose his (only remaining) leg to gangrene, but while two toes had been removed, his leg is intact and the gangrene abated," Hammer said. Goldfarb, who told Hammer doctors had treated him well and provided the best possible care, had a white sock over his right foot and long scab up the shin. He did not appear to be in pain. Goldfarb, who lost a leg battling the Nazis at Stalingrad during World War II, has been reported to be virtually blind and suffering from an ulcer.

Be left a daughter and other relatives behind. "There is no complete happiness, without misfortune, and no luck without problems," said Goidfarb. In 1984, Goldfarb refused a KGB overture to pass incriminating documents to Daniloff. The exit visa to Israel he had been seeking for three years was then canceled. Daniloff, a U.S.

News World Report correspondent, was charged with espionage after receiving documents stamped "secret" from a Soviet acquaintance Aug. 30. He was allowed to leave Moscow Sept. 29 after marathon U.S.-Soviet negotiations that also cleared the way for last weekend's Reykjavik summit between Reagan and Gorbachev. Washington museum keeping memories of Confederacy alive Near Thomas Circle in downtown Washington, the hall houses memorabilia from the Civil War period including portraits of such Confederate heroes as Robert E.

Lee, Stonewall Jackson and Jefferson Davis along with a copy of Lee's farewell order to his troops after the Battle of Appomattox and a frayed banner from the battle of Atlanta as well as a yellowed legal copy of Davis' bail bond. Upstairs is a reconstituted room that a typical veteran might have lived in at the turn of the century, with an original bedspread of linsey-woolsey (the linen and wool combination popular at the time) and an ungainly 1920s radio that no longer brings in broadcasts but instead has been wired to accommodate modem cassettes of Civil War music. There are also regular concerts in the hall, with musicians using the museum's collection of original Civil War instruments to play wartime tunes. As a familiar song played on the radio cassette, Carroll recalled a story about the piece. In early April 1865, he said, when Abraham Lincoln learned of the Southern defeat at Appomattox and knew it meant the beginning of the end of the war, he turned to the Marine Band at the White House and made a request.

"There's a song I'd like you to play," he said. "It's called New York Times WASHINGTON At Confederate Memorial Hall, officials refer to the Civil War as the War Between the States, the books on the shelves have titles like "I Rode With Stonewall," and visitors gather to hear old Southern tunes and to eat cornbread and black-eyed peas. One might think a place like the hall would be situated in a city like Richmond or Charleston or Atlanta. But it is not. Rather, Confederate Memorial Hall is the newest museum here, in the city that was the capital of the other side in the Civil War, a city that, despite being the Yankee seat of government, had a goodly number of Rebel sympathizers.

The hall was purchased in 1907 as a home for aged Confederate soldiers. Around the time of World War II, it became a meeting place for their descendants. And now it is a memorial to the old South, a place to "hold on to the best part of Southern culture, to keep Southern history alive," according to George Carroll, curator of the museum. "We're not at all interested in refighting the war," said John Edward Hurley, president of the Confederate Memorial Association, which owns and administers the hall.

Sandinista officials said Hasenfus told them he believed the Cubans, whom he called Max Gomez and Ramon Medina, had the blessing of Vice President George Bush.

Bush has denied knowing Medina but has said he met twice with Gomez to discuss Gomez's counterinsurgency work with the Salvadoran military. Bush said he never discussed any possible involvement Gomez had with the Contras. The resupply team included Americans and Cubans who had worked in the past on and off, on contract or directly for the U.S. government, mainly the CIA, especially during the 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion and in Southeast Asia. But it remains unclear who organized the operation and who financed it.

Some stopped off at a dirt strip in Mocoron in the eastern part of the country. Both fields were hardened and smoothed to prepare them for big cargo planes by U.S.

Army engineer units during U.S. military exercises in 1984 and this year. American spokesmen for the exercises stressed repeatedly that the airfields' only use was to give U.S. soldiers practice in field construction techniques, and said they would not be used by the Contras. Secret From Page 1A In eastern Honduras, resupply missions were launched frequently from Honduran military airfields at Aguacate and Mocoron that were refurbished through U.S.

military exercises. U.S. spokesmen have strongly denied that the airfields would be available to the Contras. Nicaraguan officials have made only a small part of the captured documents and other evidence available in Managua. The documents do not prove any link between the plane and the Reagan administration.

Instead, they reveal nuts and bolts of a contract air resupply operation, manned completely by Americans. Nicaraguan rebel names are totally absent from the flight logs.

Reports from Lebanon said Israeli jets returned after the raid and strafed the area where the two pilots landed. Amal militia commander Abu Jamil Ghaddar told reporters five militiamen were wounded in the strafing runs.

Ghaddar initially said one of the Israelis was captured alive. But a later statement by Amal leader Nabih Berrl denied his organization was holding an Israeli. Israeli security officials said at least two guerrillas on Wednesday threw two or three grenades into a group of about 300 recruits of an elite army infantry force and their families after a swearing-in ceremony at the Wailing Wall, the remnant of the biblical Jewish temple. Officials at Hadassah Hospital said the blast killed one man, the father of a soldier. Police said among the wounded were 42 soldiers and 27 civilians, mostly relatives of recruits.

The attack occurred near Dung Gate, about 300 yards from the Wailing Wall, Judaism's holiest shrine. On Thursday, police had washed bloodstains from the pavement, but glass fragments from damaged cars remained. Right-wing Israeli legislators called for harsh anti-Arab measures, such as deporting all Arabs from Israeli-occupied territories or restricting the movement of Arabs in the Old City. Police questioned more than 100 Palestinians in neighborhoods near the Wailing Wall.

News of the plane's downing was held up by the Israeli military censor for eight hours while troops searched for the missing pilots. Reports from Lebanon said the troops were covered by heavy bombardment from Israeli gunboats in the Mediterranean. The Israeli announcement said planes and boats patrolled the area throughout the rescue operation. The plane was shot down during a bombing run on positions of the mainstream Fatah faction of the Palestine Liberation Organization, near Sidon, said the announcement. It was the first Israeli plane shot down over Lebanon since November 1983.

Three other Israeli planes have been lost since Israel invaded Lebanon in 1982. Earlier, Israel Television reported the targets were bases of the Popular Front for the Liberaiton of Palestine-General Command and the Palestine Liberation Army, both pro-Syrian groups.
