AINSWORTH (AP) Opponents formed i motorcade of tractors and farm tombcaaH. to gr mngrtwsaraa; members at a hearing Friday on proposals to designate a 78-mile stretch of the Niobrara River as a national scenk river. An estimated 400 people packed the Amswth auditorium for the bearing before the House subcommittee on parks and pubHc lands. The subcommittee chaired by Rep. Bruce Vesta, D-MiiuL, heard testimony in support of and against proposals to designate a 71-mfle stretch between Valentine and the Nebraska Highway 117 bridge north of Newport The river is not owned by Nebraska.

It ia a national resource. Rep. Bruce Bento 3T Earlier, Vento said he expects the proposed scenic-river designation to pass the House and be signed by President Bush. The tractorcade began a mile or two west of town and included about 40 vehicles. Scenic-river opponents the association were from Nebraska residents.

Rep. Barbara Vucanovich, R-Nev, said she was in favor of a bul by Rep. Virginia Smith, Neb, calling for a study of the area. Lou Christiansen of Sparks said the designation was needed quickly because waiting for a study may mean there win be nothing left to preserve. A Niobrara bill by Sen.

Jim Exon, D-Neb, has passed the Senate. Rep. Peter Hoagjand, D-Neb, who also was at the news conference, said the designation is important to all Nebraskans, not just those who five near the river. Vento said that a scenic-river designation is a national issue. "The river is not owned by he said.

"It is a national resource." Opinion polls show there is support for preserving national resources such as the Niobrara, he said. ANOTHER HEARING with Sens. Bob Kerrey, D-Neb, and Exon will be Saturday in Valentine A hearing on designation will be held by the House in Washington March 29. On Friday, eight people testified against the proposed scenic river designation; seven people spoke in favor of it Russ Barelman of Chambers testified on behalf of the Nebraska Farm Bureau Federation against the designation, saying it would infringe on farmers' rights.

He also said fishing and hunting, but not trapping, would be allowed along stretches under federal control carried signs with slogans such as "LoeaSze, Not Federals" and a circle with a slash through it and the words "Scenic River." Opponents said they were concerned about loss of tax revenue and land rights; supporters said the designation is needed to protect the area from development VALENTINE MAYOB Don Peterson, representing Valentine and other communities in the river valley, said he opposes scenic river designation because it would place L2 Bullion acre feet of water annually in federal hands. Peterson said he fears that federal protection of the Niobrara under the National Wild and Scenic Rivers Act would adversely affect a thriving local economy fueled by the 20,000 to 30,000 canoers who come to the river each summer. Cherry County Commissioner Bob Ward said too much land in Cherry County is now under federal ownership. Ward said he and commissioners from neighboring Rock, Brown and Keya Paha counties also are concerned that federal protection would erode the property tax base. "Let ns five, and our future generations hve, as we want not as the federal government thinks we should" he said.

"Please reconsider tins bin. We really don't need more government land." But Wes SandaH of Bassett of the Save the Niobrara River Association presented petitions he said had 20,000 signatures supporting the scenic river designation.

His musical talent extends to the piano, which he's studied for eight years. He accompanies himself ts well as plays for friends at auditions and talent shows. Given his druthers, though, Matt would concentrate on acting and singing, he said. In his own script for the future he combines the two and heads for Broadway to put his name in lights.

But that's getting ahead of the story. Right now he's just trying to get an the experience he can, sometimes bumping rehearsals for one show into performances for another.

Ron Withem of Papfflion, chairman of the Education Committee, who filed for the Democratic nomination for state treasurer. She win be unopposed. Among the other interesting possibilities posed by Friday's late filings was that the retirement of McFarland might not mean the Legislature wont have a former Cornhusker football player among its ranks. Former Husker Bob Lingenfelter of Plainview became a political aspirant by filing to take on state Sen. Cap Dierks of Ewffig, the man who defeated De-Camp four yean ago.

Both of them win automatically succeed to the November general election ballot 1 who wQl be running unopposed. The others are Roger Wehrbein of Platts-mouth, Brad Ashford of Omaha and W. Owen Elmer of Inrfianola AMONG THE MORE WELL-KNOWN political figures that filed Friday was former state Sen. John De-Camp, who decided to run for the Republican nomination for attorney general. DeCamp, who joins Don Stenberg and Mike Heavican on the ballot, was defeated four years ago in his re-election Ud and has since made bis living as a lobbyist In recent weeks, ms already controversial reputation grew even further when he sent a memo to several news organizations naming five persons who the Legislature, including candidates for the Lincoln seats up for election.

Sen. Dave Landis, who was previously unopposed, will be joined on the May primary ballot by Robert Codr of 1410 Benton St. Assuming a successful write-in candidate doesn't come along, both win automatically be on the general election ballot in November. One more name was added to the three who previously filed in hope of succeeding Sen. Jim McFarland, who is retiring after one term.

That person was William G. Tooley who lives at 1331 Twin Ridge Road. Of the three Lincoln seats up for election this year, only the 26th, held by Sen. Don Wesely.wffl be an unopposed race. Wesely was just one of four senators had supposedly been named by witnesses in the Legislature's investigation of the Franklin Community Federal Credit Union.

Other late filers for spots on the GOP ballot were Omahans Otis Glebe and Roy Brettman. Glebe filed to join Hal Daub as a challenger for the U.S. Senate and Brettman filed against Jack Maddus of Wauneta for the Lieutenant Governor post BOTH DAUB AND MADDUX had been unopposed before Friday. Another previously unopposed candidate to pick up opposition was Deputy Attorney General Gene Crump, who is running for the Democratic nomination for Attorney General He will now be opposed by Allan J.
