THURSDAY, JUNE 6, 1985 International Arms aid for Jordan is being weighed by the Reagan Administration, according to State and Defense Department officials. They said the Administration was nearing a decision to ask Congress to provide Amman with $300 million in additional military credits that would allow it to order F-20 fighter planes and two advanced antiaircraft defense systems. [Page A1, Column 6.] The Senate compromised on arms by adopting, 90 to 5, a resolution calling on President Reagan to continue to adhere to the 1979 strategic arms limitation treaty with the Soviet Union.

FOR WINE BUFFS WITH A NEED FOR NEWS, THE INDUSTRY OBLIGES
Date: 05 June 1985

GOOD news for wine lovers who like to stay tuned to the grapevine: newsletters are available free. In states where grapes are grown and wine is made - among them California, New York, Washington, Oregon, Ohio, Idaho, Virginia, Connecticut and Pennsylvania - vineyards mail informative, entertaining newsletters for the asking. A sampling suggests that marketing may not be the sole motive, and that education ranks high. For example, you can learn how to decipher wine labels; why some wines bear a single-vineyard appellation, others a broader one; how soil, drainage and climate are related to grape yield and flavor.

DEMOCRATIC VICTOR IN JERSEY PREPARES: PETER SHAPIRO TO BATTLE A POPULAR INCUMBENT: POLITICAL SUCCESS FROM EARLY AGE
Date: 06 June 1985
By Jane Perlez, Special To the New York Times

When Peter Shapiro graduated from Harvard, with honors, in 1974, he shunned the career paths pursued by many of his friends and headed home to New Jersey. His aim, his friends said, was to pursue a driving political ambition he did little to hide, to someday become a national political leader. And so, at the age of 23, he successfully ran for the State Assembly from a working-class district. On Tuesday, the 33-year-old Mr. Shapiro, who has held a political office ever since, went some distance in achieving his long-term goal when he defeated more seasoned politicians to win the Democratic gubernatorial nomination and the right to challenge Governor Kean in November.

OAKLAND PUBLISHER IN UPHILL STRUGGLE
Date: 05 June 1985

In 1983 a black journalist with a national reputation and no money purchased The Tribune, the unprofitable newspaper based in this ethnically diverse city. Although the new owner, Robert C. Maynard, was able to buy entirely on credit and with favorable terms, many people associated with the business gave him little chance of reversing The Tribune's steady decline in advertising and circulation. On his first day, Mr. Maynard, who had been the newspaper's editor and publisher, greeted employees with a promise that a new newspaper had been born that would surprise, even confound, the doubters. After two years of bruising competition and work, even skeptics say that The Tribune is vastly improved.

A majority of Americans still oppose help for efforts to overthrow the Nicaraguan Government, but support for that Reagan Administration policy is increasing, especially among the growing number who know which side the United States backs, a New York Times/CBS News Poll shows. Fifty-three percent of the 1,509 adults interviewed by telephone from May 29 through June 2 said the United States should not help the Nicaraguan rebels, while 32 percent said it should. This represents a modest change since April 1984, when 27 percent favored support for the rebels and 55 percent opposed it. Both polls have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus three percentage points.

'INTERCOM' ASKS QUESTION: CAN PEOPLE TRUST THE MEDIA

THE most equivocal thing about ''Can the People Trust the Media?'' is the title. Robert MacNeil does not tell us whether the people can or not. Forgive him for that. Mr. MacNeil, the co-anchor of the ''MacNeil/Lehrer Newshour,'' has something to say about journalism, and none of it is self-serving. He will be seen on Channel 13 at 10:30 tonight.
