Nebraska BY THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Nebraska has the nations 17th highest rate of deaths in traffic accidents where at least one of the vehicles ran a red light, according to a report released by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety. The study found that between 1992 and 1998, 37 people died in Nebraska in HEAT John C. CONTINUED FROM PAGE A1 as they visit other JCF events. Re vis also urged the many expected visitors to be careful and reasonable in dealing with the heat and humidity, and to consider heading inside to the new-fashioned air conditioned environment of a Fremont business or restaurant if the need to temporarily escape the heat arises.

Barb Anderson, education Keeping cool STAFF REPORTS As the heat and humidity of a Nebraska July continue to affect Fremont, there are some ways homeowners can help keep down costs as well as keep their homes cool. Scott Getzschman at Get-zschman Heating and Sheet Metal in Fremont offers several tips to help with air conditioning maintenance and efficiency. One important suggestion Getzschman makes is to keep the temperature of the air conditioning system set at a comfortable level while letting the windows stay closed. Although some may believe that running the air conditioner during the day and then opening up the windows at night will conserve energy and lower utility bills, this is not the case. Instead, the air conditioner will just have to work harder each day to remove the humidity which has re-entered the home through the open windows.

Getzschman also advises multi-story homeowners to turn their fan switches from auto to on in order to help mix the air and counter the manager at Fremont Area Medical Center, says the hospital will not be making extra preparations for any cases of heat exhaustion or dehydration, but that emergency staff are always ready to deal with any such cases. People can take specific steps to avoid problems with the heathumidity one-two punch, according to Anderson. at low costs natural rising of warmer air to the upper floors. Regular maintenance is also an important way to prevent air conditioner failure at the most inopportune times. Cleaning of the air conditioners indoor cooling coil, which can often get clogged with debris which restricts air flow, along with other routine maintenance, can prevent up to 60 percent of repairs regularly made to AC systems.

Finally, if all else fails, and the air coming from the vents is warm instead of cool, the best thing to do is to turn the thermostat from cool to off and the fan switch from auto to on. Many air conditioning companies may be booked several days in advance, so its best to do whatever can help until a technician can come to the rescue. Getzschman said its never too late to begin taking the steps which can help avoid an air conditioner meltdown at the very time when it is most needed, and Fremonters trying to keep cool might want to remember that a little prevention can go a long way in helping to avoid a big problem. pi a Jon Carl Ludvigsen use of such cameras for issuing violations. The proposal never made it out of the Legislatures Judiciary Committee, largely due to the influential Sen.

Ernie Chambers of Omaha, who has blocked the city of Omahas attempts to install red-light cameras. Chambers has said the use of those earners violates the due process rights of violators and car owners because the tickets would assume guilt of the vehicles owner.

She advises festival-goers to dress appropriately for hot weather and to drink plenty of fluids, especially those which are slightly salty to the taste.

She indicated many sports drinks will help provide the salt which needs to be replenished along with fluid. She suggested that caf-feinated drinks and those containing alcohol are not helpful. Both caffeine and alcohol can exacerbate problems with the heat, she said.
