WASHINGTON- Two-time Democratic presidential contender Edmund Brown Jr. and Republican grande dame Millicent Fenwick battle for political survival in today's Senate elections.

There are 19 Democratic and 11 Republican incumbents facing challenges today, and three open seats, two held by Republicans.
he has faced it not garner the FE seats to regain control of the Senate after two years in the cold. The GOP now controls the Senate, 54-46. California's Governor Brown, 44, trailed San Diego Mayor Pete Wilson by 5 points in late polls.
Rep. Fenwick, 72, was in a race "too close to call" with businessman Frank Lautenberg.
Republican Sens. John Danforth of Missouri and Harrison Schmitt of New Mexico were believed to be in trouble on the eve of the election, as were Democratic incumbents Howard Cannon in Nevada and John Melcher in Montana.
Marines told to head for East Beirut
WASHINGTON—President Reagan yesterday authorized U.S. Marine peace-keeping troops to move from the airport south of Beirut into the city's Christian-dominated eastern section.
State Department spokesman John Hughes said no increase in the 1,200 U.S. troops was expected for the new assignment, part of the Lebanese government's effort to reassert control over the city following the evacuation of Palestinian fighters from West Beirut in August.
A Pentagon spokesman said the Marines would send out "limited patrols" from Beirut International Airport to East Earh, probably on Saturday.
Hughes also said there was no indication that the Marines were the target of a car bombing in Beirut yesterday. One Marine suffered a slight wrist injury in the explosion.
Police seek man in Tylenol case
CHICAGO—Authorities yesterday issued an all points bulletin for an Illinois man wanted for questioning in the deaths of seven people who took cyanide-laced Tylenol, officials said.
Mort Friedman, a spokesman for Illinois Attorney General Tyrone Fahner, said Kentucky officials issued the bulletin for a man identified as Kevin Masterson, believed to be visiting a friend near Murray, Ky. Friedman stressed that Masterson, who was described as having a
history or friend's illness, was only wanted for questioning at this point. Investigators searched Masterson's Chicago apartment Friday and recovered items which Friedman refused to identify, but said included certain substances.
In Newark, N.J., a worker was jailed in lieu of $50,000 bail yesterday in a copycat plot to extort $100,000 from the makers of Tylenol by threatening to spike the pain killer with cyanide.
Dioxin testing called political plov
WASHINGTON—In what some agency officials called a blatant election-eve political ploy, the Environmental Protection Agency announced yesterday that it would test a "promising new technique" for cleaning up deadly dioxins in soil in Missouri.
EPA Administrator Anne Gorsuch said the agency would begin testing the treatment method within a week at a contaminated horse site.
But one agency official said the announcement appeared to be "made out of whole cloth as an election-eve press release" timed to boost the re-election chances of Sen. John Danforth, R-Mo., who is locked in a race that will determine Mitt Romney Jeff Woods. One source said the treatment had never been tried on diapers.
The EPA has found the cancer-causing chemical at 14 confirmed sites in Missouri and has a list of 41 other potential sites.
DeLorean Motors settles out of court
DETROIT—DeLorean Motor Co. agreed yesterday to sell virtually its entire United States' assets plus the right to distribute 1,094 stainless steel components.
In an out-of-court settlement, DeLorean Motor Co. gave up its battle for the rights to 649 of the gull-winged autos to which Consolidated, based in Columbus, Ohio, holds title.
A final ruling on the settlement will be made Nov. 8 in federal bankruptcy court.
6,750 left jobless after Fair closing
KNOXVILLE, Tenn.—Workmen began tearing down fast food stands, restrooms and amusement rides at the World's Fair site yesterday while some of the 6,750 people left unemployed by the fair's close lined up for government aid.
The 22-nation event ended Sunday night after a six-month run. Promoters said it attracted 11,127,786 visitors and probably made a small profit.
Most buildings on the fairgrounds will be torn down, but a few structures, like the 262-foot-tall Sunshine tower, and the $23.8-million building at Pinecrest Park, will be preserved.
Unemployed fair workers reported to a National Guard Armory yesterday to begin filling out job applications and signing up for uniforms.
The first World's Fair ever in the South achieved its two main goals by paying back 43 banks that loaned it $30 million and by attracting a projected 11 million visitors.

Slattery, Kay split on use of foreign aid
By JULIE HEABERLIN Staff Reporter
In last night's final round of the 2nd Congressional District race, Republican Morris Kay and Democrat Jim Slattery denounced U.S. foreign aid used by underdeveloped countries to suppress internal conflicts.
"One of the problems with the aid we give now is that the citizens are not educated enough to utilize it correctly, and we are just throwing it away for no purpose," Kay said, during a debate at the Kansas Union.
Slattery, who has advocated massive cuts in foreign aid throughout the campaign, agreed, and expressed concern for a post-conflict world underdeveloped world that would have repercussions in the U.S. economy.
DURING THE DEBATE sponsored by the KU political science department, the candidates were questioned by a professional faculty specialist including KU professors.
Key and Slatter stress the importance of U.S. economic viability in maintaining a strong defense policy against geopolitical negotiations with Central and Latin America.
But while Slattery supported recognition of three Third World countries — Nicaragua, Angola, and Vietnam — Kay said he was hesitant to recognize Vietnam until all U.S. war casualties were accounted for.
The candidates differed on their views of the Reagan administration's buildup of the defense department, with
Slattery calling for a halt to massive defense expenditures.
Slattery also maintained that it was
KAY SUPPORTED the Republican administration's policies and said that a secure arms agreement would be feasible only after the United States balanced nuclear weaponry between the two superpowers.
In Slattery's remarks, he stressed the superiority of U.S. military equipment in comparison with that of the Soviet forces, and that the actual number of nuclear missiles.
now possible for a mutually verifiable nuclear arms agreement with the Soviet Union.
Because of recent difficulty in trade negotiations with Japan, Slattery said he favored a tougher trade policy with that country.
Kay, however, said that the United States should be careful in trade negotiations with Japan, a primary importer of U.S. wheat. He said that a
restrictive policy now could economically hurt the United States, particularly Kansas farmers.
BOTH CANDIDATES also said they supported open communication lines with communist countries concerning social, social and economic exchanges.
Slattery admitted difficulty resolving the conflict of the two U.S. interests.
One member of the audience stirred a controversy by asking the candidates how they would balance their support of the U.S. economy with their interest in suppressing human rights violations abroad.
Kay's answer to the question, which brought laughter from the audience because of its directness, was that he knew everyone on what was best for the 2nd District.
Police disperse rioting youths in Britian
By United Press International
LONDON—Special police riot squads waded with truncheons into crowds of stone and bottle-throwing youths yesterday in the south London suburb of Brixton — the scene of bloody rioting last year that injured dozens of officers.
One policeman was slightly injured in the fracas, and a press photographer was stabbed in the hand, a Scotland
Yard spokesman said. Police maize four arrests on charges of threatening behavior and possession of gas bombs and a sword.
CLOTHED IN fireproof suits and crash helmets, the police units — out in strength for the first time since being retrained and re-equipped after last year's unrest — succeeded in dispersing the crowds late yesterday.
The disturbances followed the evic

Steve McMurray
McMurry preliminary waived
A Douglas County associate district court judge yesterday waived a preliminary hearing for Steve McMurry, a student coordinator of KU on Wheels.
Judge Mike Elwell waived the hearing after McMurry's lawyer, Wes Norwood, requested that the preliminary hearing not be held.
The judge scheduled McMurray's next court appearance for Dec. 3, at which time a trial date will be set for a year-old Lawrence special student.
McMurry is charged with five feline counts of theft involving $9,425. He was arrested Sept. 15 by KU police after David Ambler, vice charger for
