Hastings-Mrs. Anne E&tchelder was
reelected stats chairman of the Republican
party Saturday. She was unopposed for
what she said will bo hsr last term.
Eatchelier, of Omaha, is a former GO?
national committeewoman.
"I intend to quit totally in two years,
but I intend to quit with a Republican in
the governor's mansion," she said. Gov.
J. James Exon, a Democrat, is prohibited
by the Constitution from seeking a third
term.
Art Knox, a Lincoln industrial execu
tive, was elected First Congressional Dis
trict chairman, tie replaced Monroe Usher,
Jr. of Lincoln who did not seek reelection.
Roberts McGowen of Ulysses was elect
ed vice chairman of the district.
Workweek
Washington-President Jimmy Carter
urged private industry and government to
switch to a four-day, 40 hour week to cut
consumption of dwindling natural gas
supplies.
"We could save a great deal of fuel both
in government buildings and also in com
mercial buildings if we could just heat the
buildings four days a week,' Carter told an
emergency session of his Cabinet.
"Bi't so far we are prevented from doing
that without extraordinary extra costs and
I think there is a legal prohibition, he
said. "We are investigating that now."
James Schlesinger, Carter's energy aide,
has said unneeded gas in the Northwest
could be shifted to the East to aid where
it is needed. , .
Paris-Vice President Walter Mandate
Saturday said arms sales had "reached a
disgraceful proportion" and won French
agreement for international talks to cut
back the volume of arms trading in the
world.
Mondale met for about three hours with
French President Valery Giscard dEstaing.
"We were not at the point" of discuss
ing an actual limit on arms sales, Mondale
said. The United States and France are the
number , 1 and 2 conventional arms sellers
in the world.
Mondale told Giscsxd the United States
is concerned that arms sales are robbing
nations of limited resources that those
nations need for pressing problems in such
areas as money for food, business deve
lopment and strengthening of internal
economies."
Comic ti;23
Los Angeles-Doctors fought vainly for
33 hours to save comedian Freddie Prinze's
life before Prinze died Saturday.
Prinze, 22, starred in NEC's "Chico and
the Man" with comedian Jack Albertson.
When his vital signs weakened a nurse in
the intensive care unit at UCLA Medical
Center pounded on his. chest and cried,'
"Hang on, the world needs all the laughter
it can get." '
Prinze shot himself in the brain early
Friday as his horrified manager stood by
helplessly. Friends said the young comic
was despondent over the breakup of his
year-long marriage and the pressures
of his hectic career.
Prinze never regained consciouness.
Doctors said the bullet passed through
his head, causing massive brain damage.
Prinze underwent two hours of surgery
Friday.
Draft proposal
Washington-Military leaders, alarmed
by drop of about 200,000 men in Armed
Forces Reserves last year, are studying a
proposal to draft young men into the
reserves for military training. " .
The proposal is one of several in a study
undertaken by the Pentagon for the Senate
Armed Services Committee on ways to
revitalize the reserves for mobilization in
case of a European war.
The force now stands at 1.6 million
men, the lowest level since the early
J950v,.;. i,.
Pentagon sources attribute the decline
in reserves to the departure of Vietnam
era veterans who finished their commit
ment, loss of draft-induced volunteers and
the lackluster image of some reserve units.
Official reservists are more valuable than
the traditional image of a Sunday soldier
with two left feet. Sixty per cent of all -Air
Force tactical airlift capability is in
reserve units, and officials say the nation
would depend on the manpower pool of
the ready reserve as "fillers" for regular
units in the early days of a war.
Despite Mayor Helen Boosalis Septem
ber repair order, some Lincoln railroad
crossing have not been fixed, according to
Ron Uston, Public Works Dept. construe
tion engineer. ,
After a Public Works Dept. study last
August, Boosalis sent letters to five rail
road companies operating in Lincoln asking
them to repair crossings, including die one
at 19th and Vine streets near campus, by
Dec. 1.
Another study is to be completed by
the middle of this week, Liston said. It will,
show temporary and permanent repairs
made and proposed major repairs.
In general, the crossings have been
somewhat improved, Liston said, but
"others are back in--t.br. same condition.
Most of these in poor condition are on
arterial streets" ,
Some of the railroad companies have
indicated to the mayor that they have
planned major repairs, he added. Because
frozen earth prevents work, repairs will
begin with warm weather.'
Jack B. Kidder, road master for Chicago
Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Co., said
his company did not complete the major
repairs needed on the crowing near campus
because it would havs been necessary to
close Vine St. during the football and
Christmas seasons.
A program to complete work after the
arrival of warm weather was worked out
in conjunction with the city, Kidder said.
.", But financial problems of the Chicago
Rock Island and Pacific Railroad Com
panies may affect the availability of morey
and repair work, he said. V
Jerry Launer, road master -with the
Union Pacific Railraod Co., said cold tem
peratures prevented the completion of re
pair work at Union Pacific crossings,
More extensive repairs have been planned 1
this spring, he said. '.'.." - '
