Monday, 11882 a Page 9 The Lincoln Star Eoyte aida to save pest in Omaha City Hall OMAHA (UPI) Mayor Mike Bovle's staff members referred to him as a traitor. Boyle said Hill had been an outstanding housing and community development director, a job involving the administering of nearly S6 million annually in federal grants for urban redevelopment programs. "I feel responsible for having taken him out of that," Boyle said. Hill said, "I dont blame Mike, made the decision to switch jobs." Hill theorized he still was resented by some City Hall employees who had more influence with the mayor's office under Veys than they have had with Boyle. During the final days before the mayoral election, Hill rarely visited Veys' office and Boyle said he and Hill now are parting on friendly terms although Hilt had difficulty in the range of assignments the mayor's office must handle.

Both cited Hill's specialization and deep interest in urban housing and redevelopment matters as the basic reason for Hill's decline. "I guess I didn't understand the politics, both inside and -outside City HalL" Hill said. "I didnt recognize all the players." Hill was deputy director for community development for the city of Memphis, Tenn, prior to coming to Omaha. He also has worked for the federal Housing and Urban Development Department chief administrative assistant is leaving City Hall with the mayor's blessing. Boyle said he has been unhappy wltlf the performance of Charlie JIffl, 37, and reduced Hill's annual salary from $39,000 to $30,000.

Hill, who held the post for seven months, came to Omaha two years ago as then-Mayor Al Veys Housing and Community Development director. During his campaign against Veys last year, Boyle touted Hill as "the shining light" of City Hall and promised him a top spot in his administration. "I dont want to name names," Hill said. "But I think some people's attitudes hurt my effectiveness in doing my job." Hill's work at City Hall was praised by community leaders in Omatia's predominately black community and by federal Housing and Urban Development Department officials. In 1980, Hill served on a special federal committee to study the future of low-income subsidized housing in the county.

Last year, he was asked to testify before a U.S. Senate subcommittee on federal housing programs. Award honors memory of Lincolnite Sue Tidball By David Meisenholder Two G.I. woman sue plane firms ISLAND (AP) The wives of two Grand Island men killed last year in a plane crash near New Orleans have filed suit against the manufacturer of the aircraft and the firms that inspected the craft Ida Mae Garber, wife of James W. Garber, and Verla Heers, wife of Edward A.

Heers, filed suit in Hall County District Court Mrs. Garber is asking for $5,045.45 in damages, and Mrs. Heers requests $5,100. The money requested in. general damages is to pay for funeral and burial expenses.

In both petitions, the defendants are listed as Piper Aircraft Corporation of Pennsylvania; EDO EDO-AIRE Mitchell, a New Jersey corporation; Mitchell Industries EDO-AIRE Mitchell, a Texas corporation; Sky Craft Incorporation, a Nebraska corporation; Avionic Systems a Nebraska corporation; and Hornady Manufacturing, a Nebraska corporation. The late Joyce W. Hornady, owner of Hornady Manufacturing; was the pilot of the twin-engine plane that crashed into a fog-shrouded lake north of a New Orleans airport. Both petitions say that during the instrument approach to the airport, the aircraft experienced a malfunction in the electric trim and auto pilot systems that caused the trim system to position the aircraft in a full nose-down pitch attitude, causing the crash. Piper, EDO and Mitchell corporations sold the aircraft the petitioners claim, in a dangerous, defective, unairworthy and uncrashworthy condition.

Hornady Manufacturing is listed in the suit for unpaid workmen's compensation benefits. In a related action, Mrs. Heers has filed a suit against the Globe Life Insurance Co. She is asking for an additional $25,000 from her deceased husband's insurance policy which she claims was promised if "the death of Heers resulted as a consequence of bodily injury effected solely through accidental means." The petition states the insurance company refuses to pay the $25,000 provided for in the double indemnity clause of the policy. "The criteria came out of the kind of things we appreciated her for so much," Ms.

For 10 years she was a counselor with UMHE. She developed a strong working relationship with UNL student affairs staff members in counseling, housing, health services, Greek affairs and student programming.

Homosexuality 'teach-in' sst What was to be three days of debate on issues related to homosexuality has turned into a three-day "teach-in" with one "mini-debate." Paul Cameron, a Lincoln psychologist said he challenged several supporters of Lincoln's proposed gay rights ordinance to debate opponents of the ordinance. The only taker was James K. Cole, a Univerity of Nebraska-Lincoln psychology professor, who will participate in a "mini-debate" on the social and psychological aspects of homosexuality from 1 to 2:30 p.m. Thursday at the Nebraska Union. Other supporters of the amendment which would extend the city's anU-discrirnination ordinance to cover homosexuals, refused td participate, Cameron said.

Among those refusing was Scott Stebelman of the Gay Rights Coalition. "The coalition's feeling was we would debate any responsible psychologist but did not believe Paul Cameron fell into that class," Stebelman told The Star. He said the coalition came to this conclusion following an "irresponsible and inflammatory" letter written by Cameron which was published in The Star Jan. 2. The letter argued against passage of the proposed ordinance.

Cameron said he is disappointed the coalition has refused to engage in "a full-scale, scholarly debate" of the issue, which he said could have been "the most extensive debate on the issue ever to be held in Lincoln, or in the U.S.". He said he believes Stebelman and others refused to "do the manly thing" and debate because they knew the weight of evidence is against them. Stebelman denied this charge. In addition to the "mini-debate," there will be three anti-homosexual "teach-ins" from 9 to noon Wednesday-Friday at the union. Wednesday the Rev.

Vernon Steiner will speak on religious issues relative to homosexuality; Thursday, Cameron will speak on psychological and sociological aspects; and Friday, Nels Forde, UNL professor of history, will speak on historical and anthropological aspects of the subject Mrs. Tidball died in 1976.
