Wednesday, April 9, 1986 Daily Nebraskan Page 3 w it By Michael Hooper Staff Reporter The Lincoln Red Cross will walk April 19 to raise money for the local chapter, said Steve Lewis, public rela tions director. Lewis said students are welcome to get involved in the 9 12-mile walka thon. Walkers will start at the chap ter's headquarters at 17th and E streets, walk out to Holmes Lake, then back to the headquarters. The group hopes to raise $10,000. Lewis said he wants to get students involved because the walkathon will be fun, not because they have a lot of money The top prize for those 18 and older who raise the most money is free lodg ing for two nights for two people in the Crown Center in Kansas City. A color TV will be given to the person younger than 18 who raises the most money. A K-Mart memory telephone will go to the walker under 18 who raises the second largest amount, Lewis said. Lewis said there will be several celebrities in the walkathon, includ ing Lincoln Sen. Don Wesley and Lan caster County Commissioner Mike Johanns, Lewis said. Also, Lewis said, ABC-TV promised the mini-series "Amer ika," now being filmed in Tecumseh, would send the show's producer Dick O'Conner, co-produced John Lugar and actor Ford Reiney. Last year Scott Young, morning an nouncer for KFOR, collected $600 in pledges, the most of anyone, Lewis said. Young will be back this year, Lewis said. When walkers arrive at Holmes Lake, they will be served soft drinks. After it's all over, walkers will be given hot dogs, chips and Cokes, Lewis said. Pledge sheets can be picked up at the Red Cross chapter house, 17th and E streets, or at any Lincoln fire station, Lewis said. For more information, call 475-5581. ( 8888? ) Qr2rj CARE. MEED CASH?
