mcnday.novembcr 22. 1976 wr 'S.v I By Paula Dittrick Nebraska Republicans lauded their Victories and re examined their defeats Saturday at a gathering at the Radisson-Cornhusker Hotel. " " ' Executive Director Lloyd Herbener said that "if it didn't hurt so much, I would laugh at the newspaper articles that say the Republican party is dead." He reminded those present that President Gerald Ford had won in Nebraska. He said the winning campaigns of Rep. Charles Thone of Lincoln and Rep. Virginia Smith of Chappell were beyond criticism. Herbener said that sometimes a party loses despite what he called good candidates. 1 "Nobody can convince me that Lee Terry and McCollister weren't good candidates," Herbener said. He speculated that Sen .-elejet Edward Zorinsky probably was one of the most surprised candidates after the election. ; . State chairwoman Anne Batchelder of Omaha said Republicans should start thinking now about the 1978 election. . Proposals discussed Various proposals were discussed and two accepted during a State Central Committee meeting. Gar Donnelson of Lincoln said an issues steering committee, manned by a part-time employe, should be formed. This proposal was accepted and the committee said it will research the issues and keep the candidates informed. ' A proposal to strengthen county organizations also was accepted.-' - - Douglas County Chairman Hal Daub said county chair persons should form an association. He also said State Central Committee members should be active on the county level to keep their state status. U.S. Sen. Roman Hruska's statement that he would resign the last week in December also was on the minds of party members. Hruska's early resignation will enable Zorinsky to take office early and give him a seniority advantage over other new senators. ? A fine gesture U.S. Rep. Charles Thone called Hruska's resignation "a fine gesture on his part." But he also said seniority doesn't have "the push that is used to." Thone said no other senators have indicated signs of early resignations and added he didn't know how meaningful Hruska's resignation would be. . The Lincoln Evening Journal reported Republican National Committeeman William Morrow of Omaha as asking Hruska to reconsider his promise of early retire ment. , , . Morrow claimed Zorinsky appeared ungrateful when he said he wished Hruska would resign earfier. Defeated Senate candidate John Y. McCollister was criticized during a First District caucus. State Executive Committece member Art Knox of Lincoln said the polls showed McCollister didn't get the votes that other Republican candidates did. Polls reported McCollister got 65 per cent of the Republican votes while others got 75 to 80 per cent, Knox said. , , J Knox blamed this on what he described as the wrong strategy by McCollister, and Zorinsky's voter appeal. Mary Lou Pikerill, Otto County chairwoman, called McCollister's advertisements "ill-advised," but said that by the time their damage was realized it was too late to change them. Various Republicans attending the caucus criticized what they called McCollister's lack of public appearances and poorly planned ads. They criticized these ads, they said, because McCollister was shown walking around cattle feed yards instead of talking to people.

A proposal drawn up by the City Council-appointed license applications, which allow package sale, on-premise Lincoln's home rule liquor policies if looked upon favorably by the Council. The citizen's committee, headed by Dale Young, has proposed eliminating Lincoln's ban on Sunday liquor sales and expanding the maximum number of liquor licenses from 138 to 158. Allowing Sunday sales would bring Lincoln in line with state laws governing liquor sales. The state law, which the committee recommends Lincoln follow, allows sale of liquor under certain condi tins. The law allows package sale of beer and wine all day, on-premise sale and consumption of beer and wine after 1 p.m. and on-premise sale and consumption of mixed drinks after 6 pjn. However, it bans package sale of hard liquor. " ' . Raising the number of licenses also would be done with certain stipulations, the committee recommends. It should be done in groups of five per year during the next two years in two of the liquor license categories. Special consideration should be given to Class C liense appliations, which allow package sale, on-premise sale and consumption of all types of liquor; and Class A applications, which allow on-premise beer consumption only..; .v-;-' " ; -V0'. Favorable consideration should be given, they say, to applicants who apply for new and novel businesses and special consideration to restaurants. The committee also says the council should try to change several state laws. It recommends the city try to get local control of liquor licenses but let the state have veto power when there is "gross abuse of discretion." It also says the city should work for creation of another license category to allow only on-premise sale and consumption. The Committee's proposals are completed and, follow ing printing and documentation, will be presented to the Council for consideration.
