The attack on Moiseev, who received an "outstanding" rating from the Oakland County Bar Association, underscores a trend many attorneys in Michigan find disturbing: a nastier edge to once-staid judicial campaigns and a willingness by some lawyers to personalize rulings that go against them. The mudslinging has renewed calls to adopt a system of appointing judges rather than electing them.

THE MARATHON: TRAGEDY AMID TRIUMPH BY CLYDE HABERMAN New York Times JERUSALEM Ready for a fresh start, Israel said Sunday that it would resume negotiations with the Palestine Liberation Organization and today reopen the Gaza Strip, blockaded for nearly a week because an Israeli soldier was kidnapped by Islamic radicals. Representatives for Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin said new talks on Palestinian elections in the West Bank and Gaza Strip would begin Tuesday in Cairo, Egypt. It was clear that the Israeli government had decided not to be deflected from the peace course it set with the PLO last year, despite the national trauma caused by the abduction and death of Nachshon Waxman. The soldier, killed by his captors Friday night during a failed Israeli rescue attempt, was promoted posthumously from corporal to sergeant Sunday. Rabin also met in Amman, Jordan, until early today with King Hussein to iron out differences in land and water rights that stand in the way of a peace treaty.

Officials on both sides said an agreement was near. It was the second meeting in five days for the Israeli and Jordanian leaders. The meeting lasted seven hours. It was a measure of how far and how fast Israel had come toward reconciliation with its Arab neighbors that the Rabin-Hussein discussions were taken in stride. Only a few months ago, the public announcement of such a meeting would have landed like a Sunday night, Israel's leading television news program focused on the Waxman kidnapping and its aftermath, which included the deaths of another Israeli See ISRAEL, Page 6A I i- 'r- I JULIAN H.

He had run in at least the past two Free PressMazda marathons. He was in the kind of shape most 42-year-old men can only wish for.

He was determined to run the 26.2-mile Wind-sor-to-Detroit race again Sunday, even though he'd told his wife Saturday night he was having chest pains. Grafton, a Troy resident and budget analyst for the Army Tank-Automotive and Armaments Command in Warren, had no history of heart trouble, according to friends and family.

ROYALLY TRAPPED Book tells the prince side, says father forced wedding By Maureen Johnson Associated Press LONDON In a stunning departure from royal tradition, Prince Charles bared his soul in an authorized biography released Sunday that says his overbearing father forced him into a loveless marriage with Princess Diana. "How could I have got it all so wrong?" Charles, 45, lamented in 1986 five years after his marriage in a letter quoted in the book. Many observers saw authorization of the book as a huge gamble by the heir to the throne an apparent attempt to revive acceptance of him as future king through frankness. A Buckingham Palace spokesman said Charles has no regrets about cooperating for the biography, which describes him as bullied and mocked as a child and trapped in a nightmare marriage with a bored, bulimic, self-absorbed and obsessively jealous wife.

Allen Associated Press LOS ANGELES Cristoforo Po-maroli and Rosa Giovanelli had a son in the late 18th Century. The child began a genetic legacy that offers some hope for reversing heart disease near the dawn of the 21st Century. The descendants of the boy born in 1780 in Limone, Italy, inherited a genetic defect that protects them from clogged arteries. The 38 carriers of that defect today ranging in age from the teens to nearly 90 can eat red meat, sausage and butter without fear of heart attacks or strokes. "They are almost all smokers.

They eat like hell the worst diet," said the University of Milan's Dr. Cesare Sirtori, who screened residents of Limone for the simple mutation. Since Sirtori's 1974 discovery of Apolipoprotein A-l Milano or Apo Nlilano, named for his university doctors have discussed duplicating it to wipe out coronary artery disease. "Itis not inconceivable that the gene could be transferred to the liver of very high-risk people, who could then end up manufacturing it on their own," said Dr. Prediman Shah, cardiac care unit director at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.

Tests on rabbits have been encouraging, but experts say it's too soon to know if the procedure could work on humans. Some are skeptical. Shah leads a U.S.-Swedish team examining how to reduce reclogging, See GENETIC DEFECT, Page 7A.
