Since Harms disappeared more than five weeks ago, Scars has been haunted by recurring dreams about the woman he had been dating since last summer. “It’s really weird,” he said of his dreams. “It’s the middle of the night, and the phone rings. It’s Candi, call ing me from Pittsburgh or somewhere, and I never know whether to have her hang up and call the police or stay on the line and talk to her. “Then I wake up, and I can’t get back to sleep.” Scars said he sl#pt an average of three to five hours a night, and thought of little else while he was awake. He Finnegan Continued from Page 1 ment program, that's the one I’m go ing to cut,” he said. Finnegan warned the crowd that the United Stales would be broke in about 30 years if it kept followihg its trend of deficit spending. The answer to the increasing na tional debt, he said, was to hall gov ernment spending and generate more money for government. The first step, he said, was to place all government programs on the table and begin cutting. No. 1 on the cutting list, he said, was defense spending. The only exception to the list, he said, was social security payments to retired citizens who had been paying into the fund for 65 years. “I don’t think we can breach that contract,” he said. just rcccnuy retumeu to ms classes. With less time to sleep, Sears has plenty of time to. work with Harms’ parents, Stan and Pat Harms, on vari ous campaigns to solicit information about the case and keep the disappear ance on people’s minds. One recent idea involved a letter writing campaign in which people were asked to send a self-addressed, stamped envelope that would be re turned with a flier with Harms’ de scription and photo. With the flier was a request that it be copied and sent to others. “It’s amazing how many people arc willing to help,” Scars said. “And most of these people don’t know any of us. It’s nice to know they’re willing to help.” Another recent campaign by three Lincoln radio stations has distributed buttons with Harms’ photo. The bul tons, donated by a local businessman, Finnegan said he also opposed an increase in tax rates. Instead, he said, he hoped to grow the baseol'lhc economy, which would yield a larger tax return. Smart investing and utilizing re sources, he said, are ways to increase the economy’s base. Finnegan said the most important long-term investment the country could make was in education. A college education, he said, is one that pays the country back for 50 years. But the international situation, he said, can not be ignored while the country concentrates on domestic is sues. The United States has a responsi bility to resist the urge to return to an isolationist policy, he said. “We cannot lose sight of the fact that we arc the sole surviving super power,” he said. Many other countries, he said, look navi, uvvii naiiuv»/\j v;ui uy uivs oiuuuno announcers at on-location broadcasts. Scars said most of the original allotment of 600 buttons have been distributed, and the stations arc trying to get 600 more produced. Don Bryant, UNL sports informa tion director, said a message about Harms would be announced over the public address system at Saturday’s Homecoming football game between the Cornhuskers and Colorado. Scars said he was trying to contact officials at ESPN, which will broad cast Saturday’s game nationally, to sec if they would be interested in mentioning the case to their viewers. “If they couldn’t, I’d certainly un derstand, since it’s such short notice,” he said. “But since it’s Homecoming and everything, they might be inter ested. “I’m hoping it really will be a homecoming, and soon.” to the United States to help them establish democracies. “That is why we can’t shed the burden of the responsibility that has 1 alien on our shoulders,” he said. The reason Finnegan joined the face for congressman, he said, was for his parents and his two children. He said he hoped he could pass on to the younger generation the legacy of prosperity that the older genera tions gave him. “If we arc the weak link,” he said, “that legacy is not going to last be yond our limes.” Finnegan recalled a speech that John F. Kennedy gave in January 1961. in which he accepted the torch that had been passed onto him from older generations. “My fear is that the torch now has been dropped,” Finnegan said, and lies flickering on the ground. And now it is time, Finnegan said, to pick it up. Staskiewicz hopes tor upset Challenger moves upward in polls By Corey Russman Staff Reporter_ The challenger lo the seat of Nebraska’s second congressional d is trict says he hopes for an upset that will oust Democratic incumbent Pe ter Hoagland. Republican Ron Staskicwic/.said he had been gaining in the polls 1.42 per cent each day. “We’re going to win this,” Slaskiewicz said. He attributed his gain to his policy of addressing the issues while Hoagland continues to attack his character. However, while they differ on many issues, both candidates agree that change is necessary. Hoagland said that if re-elected, he would work for change in the con grcssional gridlock. He said he was the pro-education, pro-environment and pro-abortion rights candidate. Hoagland said he would make the economy his No. 1 priority. “We need to get it up and running out of the ditch,” he said. Staskiewicz said he also hoped for change in Congress, including restric tions on the influence of special inter est groups. He said he would like to see a reduction in the franking privi - ft - We need to get it up and running out of the ditch.

Staskiewicz, who has been en dorsed by the National Federation of Independent Business, said the gov emmcnt must let small businesses grow, which would create more, bet ter-paying jobs. Throughout his campaign, Staskicwicz said, he has continued to offer jobs to students at his campaign headquarters as well as in the restau rants he owns. Staskicwicz also said the continu ing problem of the national deficit needed to be solved. Revenue was coming in to the government, but it was spent right away, he said. More of that money, he said, could be used for colleges to benefit futurc generations. Staskicwicz said he wondered where future generations would go to school if spending wasn’t brought under control. “I’m very committed to the Uni versity of Nebraska,” he said. “1 grew up like 90 percent of college students. I worked my way through college, and I have empathy for the college • student.” Hoagland said he supported Demo cratic presidential candidate Bill Clinton’s idea of a tuition assistance program that would help students pay for a college education. Students immunized against grilling By Matthew Grant Staff Reporter__ Students in the University of Nc braska-Lincoln College of Law will not have to worry about difficult ques tions in class next week, provided they have a can of food handy. An annual college charily project, Canned Immunity, will permit stu dents to not answer class questions if they give a can of food to a collection. "It sounds kind of stupid, but in law school questions can be lough,” said ^ Jim Langcnberg, organizer of the Canned Immunity project. At the end of the week, all cans collected will be given to the Food Bank for distribution to local home less people. Law students want people to know they are involved in the community, said Langenberg, a fourth-year law student. Canned Immunity is the first in a series of charily projects planned for this year by UNL’s Student Bar Asso ciation. Jenny Tcjral, a fourth-year law student and secretary of the Student Bar Association, said she thought about 15,(XX) cans were collected last year. This year the association hopes to beat that figure by heavily publiciz ing the event in the college. Some professors even will allow students to pay money to pick who answers a question, Tcjral said. Other law college projects will in clude participating in a mass commu nity service effort with 27 other law schools early next semester, a blood drive and various class projects. * ' fc *
