CALENDAR WEATHER (TuJrries) Weather From Page A1 upstream, said Roy Osugi, a hydrologist for the National Weather Service. They did experience a record flood. A flood threat remained Friday for low-lying areas between Neligh and Norfolk, Osugi said. The rivers crest at Neligh Thursday was nearly 2 feet above flood stage, Osugi said. He said thats probably the highest since 1960.

You could drive a big boat up it if you were foolish enough to do it, Antelope County Deputy Sheriff Bill Bailey said. Some of the guys Ive talked to thought it was the highest since 1952. Its the highest Ive seen it in 15 years of being around here. Its going to be touch and go for today and tomorrow, he said Friday. Even if there is some flooding, it is very shallow flooding.

Its not (life) threaten- The high water was causing few problems Friday in Madison County, officials said. Madison County Civil Defense Director Helen Bergland said she didnt expect the high water to cause as big a headache in her county as it had in Antelope 1 We sent all our sandbags up to (Antelope County), Mrs. Bergland said. Were getting in more today but, hopefully, we wont need any." High school students at Neligh and Clearwater got out of class Thursday to help sandbag in their town, Bailey said. Russell Park near the river south of Neligh was flooded Thursday, Bailey said.

Crews hauled in concrete to shore up the river banks in Riverside Park to protect a road and the large wooden grandstand, he said. The high water damaged three county road bridges in Antelope County, officials said. The cost of the damage hadnt been determined. More rain could create added headaches for the water-logged area. There was a slight chance afternoon showers Friday and forecasters said there was a 70 percent chance of thunderstorms tonight.

Showers are likely again Saturday. If the forecast holds, it could mean more flooding in Antelope and Madison counties, said Mike Dircksen of the National Weather Service office in Norfolk. Any additional rain could cause flash flooding, he said. (warm MapsAccu-Weather March winds Above, Accu-Weather forecasts breezy weather with a chance of rain for Nebraska.

The House approved the new rural interstate speed limit Wednesday on a 217-206 roll call vote. Dole told his colleagues he had assurances that before Reagan exercises his promised veto, the White House would be willing to reopen negotiations with Congress on the outlines of a new highway bill closer to the Senates original version.

That would require two-thirds majorities of both the House and Senate. The veto will be a key test of the presidents strength, or the president will be back in the soup, Dole said. Dole said Friday that a Senate vote on overriding a Reagan veto of the bill would be much narrower than the 96-2 margin by which the Senate passed the bill on Feb. 4. Asked if he had the votes to override a veto.

Majority Leader. Robert C. Byrd, replied: I dont know. Simmons said. Club members hope Fremont residents come to the ball.

We especially hope the young people will come, Mrs. Haslam said. Tickets can be purchased from club members and later will be sold at Fremont businesses. newspaper La Repubblica that the killing was the work of the Fighting Communist Union, the ANSA news agency reported. It said the group is believed a splinter group of the Red Brigades, which orchestrated a reign of terror in the late 1970s and early 1980s.

This evening we took care of Licio Giorgieri, the top man in charge of constructing arms and air force and space armaments. A communique will follow. Fighting Communist Union, news media quoted the caller as saying. Giorgieri, shot several times in the chest, was dead on arrival at a hospital, police said. The Red Brigades continue to operate, news agencies quoted Defense Minister Giovanni Spadolini as saying as he left the premiers office Where a Cabinet meeting was about to begin to go to the scene.

The attack constitutes a new blow in the plan launched to destabilize the country a plan which will find, on the part of the state, a firm and decisive reply, Spadolini said. Legislatures Judiciary Committee for further consideration. No witnesses opposed the bill. Russell Raybould, president of the five Russs IGA groceries in Lincoln and Hastings, supported the bill. His stores have employed armed guards and undercover security personnel to stop shoplifters, he said.

All this, of course, eats into your profit," he said. Shoplifters are both rich or poor, he said, and dont conform to stereotypes of theives. Theyre not stealing because theyre hungry, Raybould said. And they dont steal hamburger they steal T-bones and lobster tails. Richard Laucks, representing ShopKo Stores said his chain of stores probably is lucky if it catches one-tenth of its.

ROME (AP) Two young men shot to death an air force general Friday in the capital. The government blamed the Red Brigades, and a caller claimed responsibility for a group thought to be an offshoot of the leftist terrorist organization. Cmdr. Francesco Di Mento, a Defense Ministry spokesman, said the victim was Gen. Licio Giorgieri, 61, 'an engineer in charge of buying and maintaining arms and aircraft.

Police said the 6:45 p.m. shooting occurred in the Aurelia neighborhood, a verdant section near the sprawing Villa Doria Pamphili park and about three miles from the historic heart of the capital. The general was in a chauffer-driven air force car when two youths on a motorcycle, their faces covered by the shields of the white helmets, pulled aloside and shot him with pistols, the news agency AGI reported.

(AP) Sen. Dale Bumpers, said Friday he wont be a candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination next year. I have decided that I will not be a candidate in 88, Bumpers was quoted as saying in a statement telephoned by an aide. Matt James.

Bumpers, who won election last year to his third six-year Senate term, also flirted in 1983 with running for the nomination the next year. He cited a lack of money and organization when he said he would not run then. Bumpers, 61, said that he felt that I had a good chance in a wide-open field and was bolstered by support of colleagues in the Senate and by other political and financial pledges. However, he said, a U.S. senator can work toward many of the same goals that the president works toward.

So Ill turn instead to other challenges. I look forward to being a senior member of the United States Senate and working with a new Democratic president," he said in his statement. Bumpers underwent- knee surgery io mid-February to cor--rect an old tennis injury. He had said that recuperation from the surgery would be a factor in his decision about running. Lately, he has been walking with a cane.

Bumpers and his wife, Betty, have three children, the youngest of whom is in her mid-20s.

Carol Pirsch of Omaha told a legislative committee Friday that LB536 would make shoplifters shoulder more of the burden for their crimes. The bill would make shoplifters or their parents or guardians pay their victims up to $150 as a reasonable cost for secui-ity measures, she said. This figure would be added onto actual damages amounts, court costs and attorneys fees, she said.

Shoplifting continues to grow, Mrs. Pirsch said, and its costs are split between retailers and. customers. Making shoplifters pay for security guards and equipment would lessen burdens on retailers and customers, she said. Sens.

Pirsch and Brad Ashford 1 of Omaha co-sponsored the measure, which was held by the r-.
