IN THE NEWS FIRST OF THREE DAYS OF LECTURES Beatrice Daily Sun, Beatrice, 22, 1977 with students Ford shares insi ght a. V. 'f, I legislative branches of government is inevitable. The former president said Congress can seriously harm an administration's foreign policy by injecting itself at critical points. As an example, Ford said the U.S.

was "very close to reaching an agreement on Cyprus with Greece and Turkey," but when Congress passed a bill limiting the sale of arms to Turkey, "it practically precluded any action by the executive branch" to end the dispute. During the seminar, Ford "sort of debated" his pardon of Richard Nixon with a student who challenged the morality of the decision, according to a student who attended the seminar. Ford said that if the circumstances warrant it, and if the potential benefit to the country were great enough, a pardon was morally right. The seminar also discussed the War Powers Act through which a president faces limitations on committing troops to combat The former president, according to a student said he never will concede the act is applicable to a president and hopes it will never stand up in court should it be invoked. Ford said questions posed by UNO students were "very-tough" but said he enjoyed his day as a professor of political science, very much.

He also visited a practice session of the UNO Maverick football team and was given a letter jacket. He then spent a few minutes centering a football to UNO center Mark Bappe "just to show you how." The City of Omaha put on quite a show at the dedication of the Ford's birthplace. The UNO band pepped up the crowd with a medley of patriotic marches prior to the former president's arrival. The man who put up more than $250,000 to build the park, Omaha businessman James Paxson, remained in the background, as he always has. But he did say a couple of years ago in a rare interview By ELLEN IIADDOW Associated Press Writer OMAHA, Neb.

(AP) The current state of the nation's belief in itself and his part in recreating it were themes former President Gerald Ford touched on frequently Wednesday during his first of three days of teaching at the University of Nebraska. Ford shared his insights of foreign policy, the election process and his post-Watergate administration with students at the University of Nebraska-Omaha. Speaking casually without notes, Ford gave brief lectures and fielded questions from nearly .500 students during four appearances. He was scheduled to move his lecture tour to NU's main campus at Lincoln At times Wednesday, Ford, who has said he isn't counting himself out of anything in the next presidential election, sounded like a man with that on his mind. He said his administration "healed the wounds of Watergate." Ford also criticized President Carter's decision to scrap the Bl bomber and called for the United States to keep its position of leadership and strength in the world.

An Omaha native, Ford also dedicated the Ford Birthplace and Gardens, a park built on the site where he was born. Nearly all the events of the former president's visit waie barred to the news media and public, so Omaha police said they were not surprised when more than 1,000 people braved high, gusty winds to attend the dedication. The best of the classes, according to several students who attended two or more of them, was an informal seminar held in late afternoon. Ford discussed, and even debated at times, a wide range of issues with 40 graduate and undergraduate honors students in political science. In a morning lecture the only one open to the news media Ford said conflict between the executive and Accident fatal to one, injures two PAWNEE CITY An accident about 11 p.m.

Work for ERA YORK (AP) Judy Carter, the President's daughter-; in-law, says "nice" women ought to get out and work for the Equal Rights Amendment Writing in Redbook magazine, for which she is a new con-, tributing editor, the wife of President Carter's son Jack, says her talks with women both for and against ERA revealed that the effort to get the constitutional amendment through state legislatures is suffering from an image problem. "Most of the" attention," she said, "has been focused on a very small number of ERA's millions of supporters: those who have been demanding and strident in their support, the pro-ERA groups that also support some unrelated and far more controversial issues Mrs. Carter urged women who live in states whose legislatures have not yet ratified ERA to "get ready to be a lobbyist a nice, calm, intelligent, feminine, determined lobbyist" to tell lawmakers how they feel and to work to defeat anti-ERA legislators.

(AP) -Legal jousting over who will preside at the divorce proceedings of Gov. George Wallace and his wife, Cornelia, is moving intc the state Court of Civil Appeals. Attorneys for Mrs. Wallace said Wednesday they would appeal the decision of Family Courl Judge John W. Davis III that he can give an unbiased hearing tc the case.

The attorneys had asked Davis to give up jurisdiction in the case because he was appointed to his post by Wallace and because his father was one of the governor's physicians. Davis said Wednesday the fact that he was appointed to the court by the governor "does not constitute cause for refusal," because he was "subsequently elected in a contested election" and has said under oath that he is unbiased.
