Hagel gets campaign boost from Sen. Lott f f — ----- KTalrnn . 1 J .1 By Matthew Waite Senior Reporter OMAHA — Senate Majority Leader TVent Lott said Nebraska’s open Senate seat is one of the three most important races for the GOP’s bid to keep its majority in Congress. “If we’re to hold our majority or pick up a few seats, Nebraska is where it’s got to happen,” Lott said. Lott was campaigning for Repub lican Chuck Hagel in Omaha, Sidney and Norfolk Wednesday. The Missis sippi Republican is the ninth U.S. sena tor to appear for Hagel’s campaign. i VW • * If were to hold our majority or pick up a few seats, Nebraska is where it’s got to happen” Trent Lott Senate Majority Leader In many races across the nation, the poll numbers are tight but leaning to ward the GOP, Lott said. With a little less than two weeks until the election, Lott’s appearance cranes at a time when polls released by the campaigns are at odds with each other. Democratic Gov. Ben Nelson claims a 13-point lead; Hagel’s camp says Nelson leads by only one point. Hagel said the endorsements show two things about his campaign: He is credible, and he shares a fundamental focus with the Republican party—in cluding cutting taxes, regulation and government spending. - - t * -'V'AVTVSAA) TT14W UUJ UUl 11UU U OVUUlVil campaign for him, is out of step with his party, Hagel said. He said Nelson doesn’t believe in his party’s philoso phies. “What else can he do but do what he’s doing by not bringing anyone in?” Hagel said. “I am not ashamed of my party. I don’t run from my party.” By using big names like Lott, the Hagel campaign aims to get out the message that Hagel can continue the progress of the Republican Congress. Hagel has two weeks to do that, and luring voters to the polls, and party organization will be crucial to that ef fort, he said. “TV and radio and polls are inter esting,” he said, “but you have to get out your vote.” Man dies hunting down runaway bull sports bar & exotic dancers 7 days a week. 11 cun. - 1p.m. J8Z3 O' Street • NO COVER FREMONT (AP) — A man helping to hunt down a runaway rodeo bull accidentally shot himself. An area farmer Wednesday killed the bull, which had been on the loose for three days. John Lovitt, 54, of Ames died in an accidental shooting Monday night while hunting for one of two bulls that escaped Saturday night from a Fremont rodeo, Dean Skokan, Dodge County attorney, said. Sheriff Dan Weddle said Lovitt was one of the organizers of the ro deo. Rodeo workers caught one of the bulls Sunday night, but did not find the other. A farmer killed the second bull at 1 a.m. Wednesday, Skokan said. The bull apparently was shot near Ames, about six miles west of Fre mont in east-central Nebraska. Lovitt was looking for the bull in a farm field northwest of Fremont when his shotgun accidentally went off as he entered his vehicle, Skokan said. Autopsy results showed no sign that Lovitt had been in contact with the bull. Residents in nearby Fremont were not told about the loose bull. City Administrator Jack Sutton said the bull was not considered a dan ger to them because the animal was heading away from the eastern Ne braska community. Fremont, ap proximately 30 miles west of Omaha, has a population of about 24,000. “The initial reports were that the bulls were near die edge of town, but all the sightings after that were four to five miles west of Fremont, so we weren’t concerned,” Sutton said. “But then again, you don’t know which direction those critters will be going.” American Heart Association.^^ fipfttnp Haart Dmaata and Strok* rwttwsss.* wssri^i'tccss.*' “** U"‘°" Glv.«p/.c ^ slsz. dte ~ tatont—rtf || _ Votunfril UNL Theatre presents The Haunting Family Portrait JZSftayna UvCaicCeC by Barbara Lebow Preview: Oct. 31 Preview Tkts $5 Nov. 1 & 2 Nov. 5-9 l 8:00 pm Studio Theatre 12th &R Call 472-2073 S YOUR HAIR , SCARIER „ THAN YOUR '> COSTUME?
