Lance's resignation urged in light of allegations
Washington The leaders of a senate committee investi
gating Bert Lance's financial affairs told President Carter
on Monday they have uncovered new allegations "on such
a serious nature' that the budget cirector should resign.
It was learned after the leaders met with the President
that Carter and Lance will not consider such a resignation
at this point. The President, it became known, still feels
Lance has done nothing wrong and will be vindicated by
the investigation.
Sens. Abraham A. Ribicoff, D-Conn., and Charles H.
Percy, R-Ill., chairman and ranking minority member re
spectively of the Governmental Affairs Committee, said it
would be in Lance's own interest to resign. The senators
did not disclose the new allegations.
There was no immediate response from Lance. His
spokesman, Robert Dietsch, said he didn't think Lance
would say anything about the matter. Dietsch added:
"I'm 99 per cent sure nothing is going to happen. . .1
don't think he's going to resign, period."

were outnumbered 20-to-l by anti-Klan demonstrators,

about an hour to two dozen supporters, standing near him
in a cordoned-off area on the steps of the state Capitol.

had been searched by highway patrolmen before the rally
started. , -

The rally began with Reusch leading the Pledge of Alle

"It we stand united, we can stop forced busing in the

About midway through his speech, a hail of eggs splat
tered the Klansmen. They were unhurt.
As his colleagues walked into the statehouse at the enJ
of the rally, police dispersed the crowd by walking among
them. At the point, pushing and shoving erupted among
police and anti-Klan demonstrators.
Babe weakens
New Orleans-Hurricane Babe sputtered out in Louisi
ana's interior Monday, but spawned at least one tornado
and left the Gulf Coast awash in rain.
"Nothing much to it," said Fred Marshall of the Mor
gan City civil defense office as Babe's winds fell from the
hurricane level-75 miles per hour-to between 15 and 25.
m.p.h.
However, a hurricane-spawned tornado struck an
empty elementary school in coastal Pass Christian, Miss.,
Monday afternoon. Officials said the twister tore into the
roof and wrecked six classrooms, causing an estimated
$500,000 damage. No students were in the school
because it was Labor Day.
Forecasters had warned of the danger of tornados as
the storm spun itself out. Tornado watches were posted in
Louisiana, Alabama and northwestern Florida in addition
to Mississippi.
Babe swept inland from Gulf of Mexico at daybreak as
a hurricane, but spent its force while heading toward
Baton Rouge. .

Blast-off successful
Cape Canaveral, Fla.-Voyager 1 blasted off toward the
outer planets Monday in a near-flawless launch, joining its
twin space probe Voyager 2 on a 675-million-mile journey
to Jupiter and beyond.
"We have a successful flight in every respect," project
manager John Casani said after, the Voyager's picture
perfect blastoff aboard a Titan-Centaur rocket in bright
blue skies and sunny weather.
It was the second launch in a $500 million program de
signed to provide valuable information about the creation
of the universe, the origins of the solar system and the for
mation of planet earth.
Although it was sent up second, Voyager I is scheduled
to reach Jupiter in March 1979-about four months be
fore Voyager 2, which was fired Aug. 20. Voyager 1 will
overtake its twin because it is flying a more direct route.

You spend one-third of your day, or to put
it another way, one third of your lifetime
sleeping. How you sleep affects how you feel
when you're awake.
If you wake up tired after a "toss-and-turn"
nijht, chances are you'll be a little off for the
rest of the day. If you get a good night's sleep,
you'll be refreshed and ready to do your best
that day.
May we tactfully suggest how to get more
. out of your sleeping and waking hours. A
flotation sleep system. More specifically, a
Land & Sky flotation sleep system.
A Land & Sky flotation sleep system is a
more natural way to sleep. It combines the
kind of superior support and gentle comfort
that no ordinary bed can.
Here's how.
The fluid flexibility of our tand & Sky mat
tress contours to the, shape of your body.
That means it fits into the small of your back,
behind your knees, around the curve of your
shoulders. The support is where you need it
most, allowing you to sleep In a more relaxed
posture.
And, youll stay relaxed on a Land & Sky
flotation sleep system. There are no pressure
points to cut off circulation. You stay com
fortable in one position. Many Land & Sky
customers tell us they wake up in the same
spot they fell asleep.
You may be surprised at how many people
in Lincoln are enjoying the beauty of flota
tion sleep from Land & Sky. We helped bring
the idea to Lincoln and we've been building
on that eiperience ever since. Expanding
our selection. Broadening our price ranses.
Upgrading our fine furniture lines. Choosing
the finest accessories. Turning customers
into friends through our commitment to
service.
We can make one-third of your day terrific.
The other two-thirds is up to you.
Just ask a friend who sleeps on one.
