That night, she left Sears’ house
shortly before midnight on her way to
her parents’ aparunent at 6100 Vine
St., but never made it home.
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

ment program, that's the one I’m go

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

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

“I’m hoping it really will be a
homecoming, and soon.”

establish democracies.
“That is why we can’t shed the
burden of the responsibility that has

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

gress to send mail to voters in their
district free of charge.
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.
