"f iiy The Associated Press
I ( )nly a few days remain before repeal of certain state sales
and property tax breaks for alternative energy systems
j Officials at the Nebraska Energy Office said applications
for facility approval of alternative energy systems for sales
4 tax refunds and property tax exemptions must be postmarked
I no later than July 16 for consideration under changes in state
i law.
I Legislative Bill 790, which goes into effect July 16, repeals
I both the sales tax refund and the property tax exemption in-
I centives available in recent years.
However, a legislative shift to income tax credits will re
main in effect after the repeal.
V. B. "Buck" Balok, energy office director, noted LB799
provides for income tax credits to purchasers of renewable

Balok said the income tax credits were designed by the
1982 Legislature to offer a greater incentive to Nebraskans
considering installation of renewable energy systems.

Extraterrestrial captures earthling
hearts with whimsy, real live fantasy
BY JIM ANDERSON
The movie "K.T." has stolen moviegoers hearts across the
nation.
" It's about kids, the suburbs, a single parent family in mid
dle California very family oriented. A dying extraterrestri
al, nicknamed 'K.T7 by the family's youngest son, Elliot, gives
the film its name," said Edward K. Sell, manager of Lincoln's
Stuart Theater.
The film's director, Steven Spielberg, is a storyteller, Sell
said, like his friend George Lucas, creator of "Star Wars".
Judging from the film's reciepts, most moviegoers agree that
this story is well told and directed.
Some viewers haven't been very excited about the movie.
Jenni Burrows, 22, of 1632 S. 21st St., was disappointed.
"I was disappointed in it (the movie)," Burrows said, "I ex
pected better special effects. The little creature could have
been more life-like, too."
But most viewers interviewed expressed the opinion of Jim
Boeche, 21, of Seward.
"I've got to see it again," Boeche said, "it was fantastic."
Sell said the theater is now offering coupons which admit
moviegoers to their sixth viewing of the film free of charge.
"'E.T.' is doing business like 'Star Wars' (the biggest gross
ing film ever shown at the Stuart)," Sell said. The movie has
been running for nearly a month at the Stuart and Sell said it's
picking up more and more business every week.

Bicyclists for peace cross U.S.,
declare bomb is spiritual sickness
BY DIANNE LUTZI
A group of six bicycle across the United States through
thundershowers and the hot sun to share their message. The
Peace Peddlers talk to groups and individuals across the coun
try about world peace through disarmament.
The Peace Peddlers stopped in Lincoln Friday and spoke
with Lincolnites at the Gathering Place, 1448 E St.
"The bomb is a spiritual sickness," said Jonathan Vogel, a
peace peddler. Even if the world gets rid of the bomb, it will
still have injustice, Vogel said. People will still have the know
how to build bombs, Vogel said. First, people need to love each
other and love God, Vogel said, to achieve world peace.
People hear so many horror stories of nuclear war, Vogel
said. People fear the enemy and the bomb, he said. The Peace
Peddlers want to help people look beyond fatalism and to
wards spiritualism, Vogel said. The Peace Peddlers want "to
move towards the future positively" through faith. They want
"to make a witness more visible to religion," Vogel said.
The public is learning to face fears and make the change
towards spiritualism, Vogel said. The peace peddlers are help
ing to create a vision of how they want to see the world, Vogel
said.
"More people are aware of this and us," said Lauren
Crutcher, a peace peddler. "Many types of backgrounds are
approaching this issue," Ms. Crutcher said.
The Peace Peddlers met through Quaker conferences and
newsletters and got together to travel across the country to in
form others on world peace, Ms. Crutcher said. A Quaker is a
member of the Society of Friends.
They believe very much in what they are doing, said Peace
Peddler Caryn Raschback, or they wouldn't be doing this.
The group started its journey on March 1 in San Francisco,
Calif., and will end the journey at Washington, D.C., on Octo-.
ber 18th, said Ms. Crutcher.
The trail picked for the journey includes cities which have
uranium plants and where bombs are made and deployed,
Vogel said. They will pedal on to Chicago, Connecticut and
Washington, Vogel said.
The Peace Peddlers encourage everyone to register to vote
to achieve world peace through disarmament, Vogel said.
