Results of application of such an idea to the preliminary data of HERMES are presented. Contributions of $Σ^0$, $Ξ$, and $Σ^*$ resonances to the polarization are taken into account.5 pages, 5 figures, corrected according to version accepted by Physics of Atomic NucleiHigh Energy Physics - Phenomenologytext
