Residence hall investigation leads to drug-related arrest
By Manny Lopez
Kansan staff writer
After a two-week investigation of illegal drug sales in McColm and Ellsworth Hills, the Tri-County Drug Enforcement Unit arrested a 19-year-old man about 7:30 p.m. Tuesday in McColm.
The man, whose name was not available, was being held in the Douglas County Jail for the possession and sale of marijuana and the use of a telephone to sell drugs.
Tony Augusto, a member of the drug enforcement unit and KU police officer, said the man who was arrested was not a KU student but had friends at KU.
On Tuesday, KU police, Lawrence police and officers from the drug enforcement unit went to a second floor room in McCollium Hall after they had received a dip that a drug deal was in progress.
According to an information report filed at the KU police department, the officers went to the room, knocked on the door and were told to come in by four
men who were in the room. After they entered the room, they asked the men if they could look around, Augusto said. From their initial search, the officers found marijuana and made the arrest, he said. Augusto said two of the others in the room were taken to the Douglas County Law Enforcement Center for questioning. He said the investigation was ongoing.
In an unrelated incident, KU police, Lawrence police and officers from the Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms unit arrested Robert Martin, 19, about 11:20 a.m. Tuesday at the intersection of Irving Hill and Engel Roads, Officials from the U.S. Attorney's office in Wichita could not be reached yesterday, but according to a report filed at the KU police department, Martin was arrested on a federal arrest warrant. He was taken to Topeka where he will face charges in federal court.
Martin, who is not a KU student, had been banned earlier this semester from Hashinger Hall where he periodically stayed.
Douglas County voter turnout not very impressive
Voter turnout in Douglas County was not exactly overwhelming.
Kansan staff report
The final unofficial voting numbers, according to the Douglas County clerk's office, showed 28,782 county residents voted, only 59 percent of the registered voters.
About 150 ballots from the Deerfield Elementary School polling place, 101 Lawrence Ave., had to be counted by hand because of technical errors and were not counted in last night's tally. The Holcom Park polling site didn't close until late because of long lines and was not counted last night. Officials and the county clerk's office declined to comment about election troubles, but said no race would have to be redone or recounted.
The final unofficial tallies for local races: State Rep.: Barbara Ballard, 7,472, unopposed; State Rep.: Tom Sloan, 4,306, Forrest Swall, 3,275; State Rep: Troy Findley, 3,065, Erschmidt, 2,547, Ena Wheeler 609; County Commissioner: Mark Buhler 4,971, Lisa Blair 4,283.

Jeremy Kilburn Manager, Amigos Manhattan, KS
for Amigos his freshman year while attending the University of Nebraska at Lincoln. When he graduated in December of 1992 he was receiving the maximum tuition reimbursement. "I really wanted to go to college, but my parents wanted me to pay my own way. I started working at Amigos and within six months was promoted to a shift supervisor which got me a raise PLUS I was still getting the S.T.E.P. money. I worked late night since because it met the demands of my class schedule. When I graduated I was offered the opportunity to transfer to Manhattan as a Manager of my own store. Thanks to the S.T.E.P. program I am a new college graduate with NO STUDENT LOANS to pay back."

Catherine Haley S.T.E.P. Student Kansas City, MO
I have a husband, a baby daughter, and am a full time Law Student at UMKC. I am also a co-worker at the mall in Kansas City. I wanted to pursue my education and also have the flexible hours that an 8 to 5 job doesn't permit. I receive 50% of my tuition paid."
Ron Tramp Father of 3 Students on S.T.E.P. Crofton, NE
"I have three daughters attending the University of Nebraska in Lincoln. When Stacle started working at 14th & Q Amigos and got on the S.T.E.P. program she told her younger sisters, Kristi and Kari about it. All three sisters are currently employed at Amigos.
Stacie graduated last December and was offered a full time management position while she looked for a teaching job. It is a financial boost for our family as well as an excellent place for young people to learn about the work place."
