Associated Press writer John Armstrong reports State Game Commission Director Mel Steen outlining a statewide plan to boost Nebraska tourism and outdoor recreation income from about 125 million to 500 million within ten years. The strategy centers on a metal loop of attractions along I-80 Platte Valley U.S. 20 and Fort Robinson, with 10 million state funds and 50 million federal matching funds over 25 years.

Caution on Tanning From Sun Exposure

Prolonged exposure causes vascular changes, wrinkles, texture coarsening, freckle spots, and possible skin cancer. Hair may tan and become brittle but will grow out.
