of proposed NETV debate rebroadcast
By L. Kent Wolgamott
Lt. Gov. Gerald Whelan Thursday
attacked his Republican opponent Rep.
Charles Thone's "veto" of a proposed re
broadcast of their Nebraska Educational
Television debate.
Speaking at a press conference at the
Lincoln airport, Whelan said that although
Thone has been campaigning for open
government his disapproval of the showing
of the debate "cast a vote for a closed cam-

paign and therefore closed government."
"He denied free time during the cam
paign because he was too busy. He ran out
of excuses for the League of Women
Voters."
Whelan said Thone's positive open stand
is "cosmetic" and cannot stand "the light
of day."
He said "people finally saw through"
Thone's campaign techniques although it
took a great deal of time.
"Bob Phares (who ran against Thone in
the Republican primary) couldn't get it
down. But the wraps are off, the house of
cards finally folds," Whelan said.
Whelan appeared at a press conference
with Gov. J. James Exon, the Democratic
senatorial nominee, upon their return to
Lincoln from a three day campaign swing
across the state in which they held 16 news
conferences.
They were greated by about 30 of their
supporters when their plane touched down,
and spoke under a banner which read "Wel
come back Governor Whelan and Senator
Exon."
Whelan renewed his attack on news
paper editorial writers.
"Most say I'm being negative and want
to fight with the legislature, but isn't Jim
Exon wonderful for keeping a lid on
spending."
Stating that Exon had vetoed $150
million in appropriations, Whelan asked
"what in the world do you think Jim
Exon's been doing?"
He re-emphasized his stand that the
governor should remain separate from the
legislature as prescribed in the constitution
and said he would "not go consorting with
the judicial branch either."
But Whelan said the governor should be
"gentlemanly and courteous" in dealing
with the Legislature.
Exon dismissed charges by his senator
ial opponent Don Shasteen and State Re
publican Chairman Anne Batchelder of
making a political appointment when he
appointed Norman Krivosha to be chief
justice of the Nebraska S'ipreme Court.
He said people he had met while
campaigning had complimented him on his
choice of Krivosha and "since only those
two are complaining, I am more convinced
than ever I made the right choice."
Exon said he did not take possible
Republican opposition to the Krivosha
nomination into account when he made
the choice. But he said if Republicans had
been advising him on the choice, "I sus
pect the Republican hierarchy would have
said wait until after the election."
But, he said he had always run an open
administration so he released the name of
his choice before Nov. 7.
"I had little faith in the Republican
hierarchy," Exon said. "I have been less
than any faith in their unworthy candidate
for the Senate."
Whelan said he did not believe the out
come of the vote on the constitutional
amendment to limit local government
spending would affect the governor's race.
But he questioned Thone's support for
the limit, as Thone has been endorsed by
the opponents of the proposed amend
ment. "What has he told them in private that
he hasn't told them in public?" Whelan
asked.
Whelan said he believed Thone signed
the petition to put the limit on the ballot
because he "thought it was the smart thing
to do politically."
CSL proposes supergroup
By Kim WUt
The suggestion of a "supergroup" de
signed to deal with campus affairs was de
bated by the Council on Student Life last
night, but no major conclusions were
reached.
The "supergroup" suggested by a CSL
subcommittee, would consist of Chancellor
Roy Young, Vice Chancellor for Student
Affairs Richard Armstrong, the president
of the Faculty Senate and two other
faculty members, and three executives of
ASUN, including the speaker of the ASUN
Senate.
Members of CSL suggested that the
Chancellor might not want to be involved
in direct contact with all issues involving
campus life. CSL chairman John Benson
said that Young might only want indirect
contact with the group.
"He doesn't necessarily want to deal
directly with all the issues. He would
probably want to delegate some of that to
the vice chancellors," Benson said.
Benson said in considering the "super
group" idea, two separate issues were being
discussed. First, he said, was that "we need
an ongoing, comfortable, communications
line with the Chancellor." Also, he said,
"ASUN wants to be the policy
recommending body," as opposed to CSL.
Ken Marienau, ASUN president con
firmed that, saying, "The Senate would not
favor CSL remaining as the recommending
body for student affairs, student life or
whatever."
Four members of CSL and ASUN rep
resentatives will meet Wednesday
November 8 with Chancellor Young, the
executive committee and the Faculty
Senate to discuss ASUN's restructuring
proposal. Benson said that CSL had not de
cided to take a stand on the proposal yet,
as it was too early.
"CSL is divided as to whether it should
remain as currently structured or not," he
said.
