(AP) A 25-year-old man described as a transient was charged in Lancaster County Court with manslaughter in the death of a Lincoln man found early Tuesday in a downtown alley.

County Attorney Mike Heavican said Victor Wolfe, 43, died several hours after he and Tony Sergio allegedly fought near the alley. In the fight and a resulting fall, Wolfe suffered broken ribs, cuts, bruises and a fractured skull, but an autopsy showed none of the injuries was severe enough to kill him, lleavican said Thursday. Pathology reports indicate Wolfe died from a combination of the injuries, exposure and from a "relatively high level of blood alcohol," Heavican said. The fight occurred sometime between 6 p.m. and 8 p.m.

Monday, apparently over a bottle of liquor one or both of the men had purchased from a nearby store, Heavican said. Authorities suspect, Sergio, suffering a hand wound, left a trail of blood to a bar, where he received first aid. Police learned Sergio then checked himself in to the Cornhusker Detoxification Center. Police arrested him at the center Tuesday. Iowa educator found slain VALDOSTA, Ga.

(AP) The body of an Omaha, man was found in a wooded area near here, authorities said. The Lowndes County sheriff officials said the victim, Lorenzo Harmon Tucker, 55, of Omaha, was found by a hunter on Tuesday. They said he had apparently been killed in another place and the body carried to the spot it was found. Officials said they were not sure about the cause of death and they had not officially ruled the case a homicide. County coroner Harold Moore said, "He apparently died of a head injury to the back of the head.

I don't know, what caused 'it." Tucker was vocational coordinator for the Council Bluff, Iowa, school district. Tucker was last seen last Friday, when a missing person report was filed. Council Bluffs Superintendent Dick Christie said he did not know why Tucker would have gone to Georgia. Unemployment dips slightly From page 1 An alternate unemployment rate, including the 1,687,000 members pf the armed forces stationed in the United States, stood at 5.2 percent last month, also down 0.1 percentage point from September. On the eve of today's report, both economic and political analysts saw little chance that the new numbers would affect next week's presidential election.

The October figures showed that the percentage of working age Americans with jobs remained at a record 62.4 percent. The last time the jobless figures had any impact was in the 1982 midterm election at the depth of the worst recession since the 1930s. Republicans lost 26 seats in the House six years ago, a week after the government announced that unemployment had hit 10.4 percent "That was a major indicator then that what President Reagan had led the country to expect did not come to pass," said Richard Brody, a political science professor at Stanford University. This year, Brody said, the economic numbers contribute to a popular feeling that the president is doing a good job. That translates into support for the candidate of the president's party, Bush.

Steve Rosenstone, a political science professor at the University of Michigan, said data closer to the "pocketbook" such as changes in real disposable income or real per capita growth in the gross national product have a bigger effect than employment rates on how people vote.

Asbestos was located in some of the school's floor and ceiling tiles and in some pipe insulation, he said.

The school's gym was inspected and no asbestos was found in it. Some floor tile and some pipe fittings contain asbestos at Adams Public Schools, but the amounts are minimal, Superintendent Ken Nelson said. The, school contracted with ATC for its management planK which cost $2,000. The school plans to continue to keep floors waxed and to sulate and cover the identified: pipes in a school maintenance' room. Nelson said the most! frustrating part of dealing with? the asbestos regulations is the! uncertainty among those who; are enforcing the regulations.

"Our board has taken a the bottom line is they want it out. Period," he said.

Stanley L. Peters and Associates, an architectural firm from Lincoln, has been contracted to develop an asbestos removal plan. That will guide the school on how and when to remove the asbestos. The school's contract with ATC cost $4,500, Humphrey said. But a state grant of $2,400 has been awarded to the school to help pay for that contract.

Filley Superintendent Bill Tempefmeier, said the management plan for Fillev School's asbestos was a welcome plan. "I was very relieved," he said. "There's nothing we have to do immediately except -be sure and keep the floors waxed From page 1 Some of the school's floor tile was also named in the report. The school must keep floors waxed and must inspect its pipe coverings regularly, he said. The school's asbestos problems didn't surprise Holle, who said the school started locating and maintaining asbestos six years ago.

We inspected in 1982 and we have had an asbestos inspection program going on ever since then," he said. The school removed asbestos material from its boiler rooms in the early 1980s. "This is why our inspection came out as well as it did," he said. Odell High School and Elementary School has located asbestos in floor tile and floor tile adhesive. The school's plan recommends keeping floors waxed and not disturbing the tiles.

More concentrated amounts of asbestos were identified in the school's boiler room where WccHthcr- Two residences, each valued at $60,000 or more, were also included in October building permits.

a covering on the water holding tank of the boiler contains asbestos. That room has been posted off limits to students and the covering on the tank will be inspected and repaired as needed. The school also must maintain coverings over acoustical spray above exit doors in the school's gymnasium. The spray contains asbestos and is already covered. The school also plans to place an additional covering on the material.

Superintendent Milford Smith said the school paid about $3,600 for ATC Environmental Inc. of Sioux Falls and Omaha to draft its plan. The contract also includes a re-inspection in three years. Small amounts of asbestos were located in Southern schools, said Superintendent Larry Humphrey. Floor tile adhesive and some pipe insulation made up the majority of the school's asbestos material.
