iStiSUi Vandalism A man found three bullet holes in his car and a window broken after hearing shots fired outside his house Monday night at 1020 Washington St. Andre Tarter told police he heard four shots fired in an alley behind his house. He looked outside, but did not see anything. When he came out two days later to start his car, he found the bullet holes — two in the passenger door, one in the bumper — and a broken passenger-side window. In the alley, he found four 9 mm shell casings. Damage was estimated at $200. Vandalism Gang-related graffiti was found Wednesday spray painted on the west wall of Lincoln Southeast High School, 2635 S. 63rd St. School officials reported that the graffiti was painted sometime be tween 3 p.m. Tuesday and 9 a.m. Wednesday. Vandals painted “CMG 4 Life” and “BD Killer.” There was a gang-related fight inside the school before the graffiti incident, officials told police, and several students will be expelled as a result. Aid-in-Dying Ml debated DYING from page 1 my knowledge, God has never amended this commandment ” But just sustaining life isn’t a good reason not to pass the bill, some pro ponents said. Carl Schmitthausler, president of Hemlock Nebraska, said quality of life was important even if medication could soothe the pain. “We question the quality of life of the person who has to be tied in bed and chair, toileted and sedated, who has no opportunity to recognize friends and loved ones,” Schmitthausler said. “The dying person has every right to say, ‘Enough, enough, I don’t want to endure this anymore,”’ he said. “Pain is one of the variables, but by no means the only one. ” Matt LeMieux, director of the Ne braska American Civil Liberties Union, said those opposed should simply not exercise that right and let others choose for themselves. He said the practice was being performed, and needed regulations. Murray Schmechel, a United Methodist clergyman, said he must counsel people who struggle with assisted-death decisions. One woman, he said, withheld medication so her husband could die after a long bout with Alzheimer’s. “I need those people whom I counsel to have that freedom,” he said. “... we need to have that ability to make a choice, regardless of where you come down on a religious per spective. “I celebrate a God in my life who is a God of life and is also the God of death, who says that death is not the final chapter.” __ - Lane Hickenbottom/DN NAVY LT. ERIC PRICE stands Thursday morning In front of an F-18 Hornet In a Duncan Aviation hangar at Lincoln Municipal Airport. Price graduated from UNL in 1989. Fighter jet rests in Lincoln; students inspired by sight By Jim Goodwin Staff Reporter The war hawk has landed in Lin coln. At least, a neutered version of an F-18 fighter jet rested Wednesday in a hangar at Lincoln Municipal Air port. Fully-armed models were used in the Persian Gulf War and Bosnia. But this unarmed, two-seater trainer—which can fly at 1 ‘/2-times the speed of sound —£ arrived Tues day for a two-day layover. The mis sion was to give Navy Lt. Aaron Keenan of U.S. Airbase Lemore a break from his two-hour training flight from southern California. The opportunity also afforded University of Nebraska-Lincoln ROTC students a peek at the ma chine they may be piloting someday, and gave 1989 UNL graduate Lt. Eric Price a speedy return visit to Lincoln. “Coming to Lincoln was good (public relations) for us,” said Price, who supervised Keenan on the flight. “It puts a face to a name. These stu dents hear about the plane. Now they can say they’ve seen it.” Kent Leonard, an ROTC cadet, said the sight was motivation. Leonard anticipates taking basic training in the Navy after graduation. ' “The earliest I’ll be able to fly an F-18 is in two years,” Leonard said. “If I have my choice of mod els, though, it’ll be this one.” Price said he and Keenan would return to the wild blue yonder this morning. “They don’t like their birds too far from home,” Price said. t* - CINL World Campus '97 Summer Study Abroad ♦ France European Agribusiness: May 12-27 European agribusiness in France, trade policies of the European Economic Community, and contrast them with current practices in the United States.
