TOPEKA—William R. Roy, former congressional representative from the 2nd District, announced yesterday he won't oppose incumbent Rep. Martha Keys for the 2nd District seat in the next election.

He said his decision not to be a candidate this year in no way precludes races in 1778 and 1880, and said he would lean toward U.S. Senate races in these years if he
U. S. Sen. James B. Pearson's term is up in 1978, and U.S. Sen. Bob Dole, who actually defeated Box in 1978, will be up for re-election again in 1980.
"I very definitely still have an interest in politics," Roy said. "I don't intend to slow down too much."
Concorde flights okayed
WASHINGTON—Two U.S. airports were opened by Transportation Secretary Michael R. Porter Jr. and are the Concordance
numeric airport set for a 16-month trial period beginning March 31.
Coleman's decision would permit scheduled Concorde flights by British Airways and Air France from London and Paris into Duluth International Airport near Los Angeles.
As Coleman announced his decision, the Environmental Defense Fund, Inc. petitioned the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals to review the order. John F. Hellegers, a lawyer for the fund, said he filed the petition with the court by telephone shortly after the announcement.
Coleman's decision with respect to Dulles is final, unless overturned by Congress or by a federal court, since that airport is owned by the U.S. government. The Port Authority of New York-New Jersey must approve the decision with respect to Kennedy, because that airport is operated by the Port Authority.
Liauor bill to be submitted
TOPEKA-An unexpected issue was thrown into the 1976 legislative arena yesterday when Sen. Bob W. Storey, R-Topka, announced he would introduce a resolution to submit a liquor-by-the-drink constitutional amendment to Kansas voters next fall.
The resolution may be ready for introduction Thursday, Storev said.
The Kansans for Modern Alcoholic Beverage Control, a Wichita-based group that published the last liquor-by-the-draft constitutional amendment in 1970, is the largest consumer advocacy group in the United States.
The liquor question was narrowly defeated in 1970, losing by only 11,000 statewide.
Book says Demos ignored break-in tips
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Republican counsel of the Senate Watergate committee says he thinks that several people, including Gov. Rick Snyder, have warned about the Watergate break-in.
Fred D. Thompson, the counsel, wrote in a book that the committee investigated illegal practices.
Thompson's book, "At That Point in Time," is the first one on Wategate written by an official investigator. It recounts his 18 years with the company and unanswered questions about Wategate.
Thompson said the minority staff spent months checking a private investigator's report that he overheard conversations in the spring of 1972 indicating that the Democratic headquarters in Washington, D.C., was to be bugged.
THE INVESTIGATOR, Arthur Woolstom-Smith, passed the information to William Haddad, editor of a neighborhood newspaper, Lawrence O'Brien, chairman of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) in a March 23, 1972, letter, which spoke of the sophisticated surveillance techniques now being used for campaign purposes."
Thompson says that O'Brien assigned
John Stewart, director of communications for the DNC, to follow up on the report and that Stewart, in 1973 a civil sultation, "recalled he received a telephone call from Woolster-Smith, preset to June 17, 1972, campaign would attempt to bus the DNC."
Stewart said he considered the in-
formation insufficient to act upon it,

THE BOOK also reveals that columnist Jack Anderson figured in the Thompson staff investigation through his long-standing friendship with one of the burglar, Frank Sturgis, and through information he got from Haddad.
Thompson said that more investigation of the matter couldn't be justified and that "the effort to find it might add to a finding of historical in-formation only" — we had played out the string.
The information was deemed too speculative by Sen. Sam Ervin Jr., chairman of the Senate Select Committee on the Debt and was not included in the panel's report.
"Did we have proof--proof beyond a reasonable doubt?" write Thompson. "The reason is that I am not a scientist."

DOYEN, a non-smoker, said Tuesday, "Each penny of cigarette tax raises about $2.2 million in revenue and that would be enough to attract some genuinely powerful teachers to KU that we would need for a first-rate research program."
Chancellor Archie R. Dykes told SenXe that Gov. Robert F. Bennett and he had conferred with the Ross Doyen, R. Doyen, in preparation for the preparation of a bill Dyoenas plans to introduce.
Dykes said strong support had been expressed for the bill.
Doyen's bill asks for a one-cent increase in state cigarette taxes to help create a larger cancer research program at the University of Kansas.
Dykes also commented on Speaker of the House Duane S. McGill's move to cut faculty merit salary increases from 10 per cent to 5 per cent.
However, legislators usually are reluctant to increase taxes in an election year. THE CIGARETTE excise tax is now at 11

"I'm interested in it (the bill) because I've been active in the cancer fight for a long time, and sponsored a longtime banning bill last year, so could give this bill 100-per cent endorsement."
SenEx discusses cancer funds
Doyen said he wasn't concerned about additional across state lines because of the additional.
One legislator opposed to the cancer research bill was Fred Harris, R-Chanute.
"A lot of cancer problems are related to cigarette smoking," he said. "It would seem logical to support the research from that sort of revenue."
"I don't know that we need the money from taxing cigarettes," he said. "Doyen favors a tax rebate, too. So what he's doing takes some (money) and gives some money."

Reilly said he was generally opposed to the bill.
There were 50 more students than were needed to help with the dinner, she said, which resulted in some of the legislators having two student sponsors.
"It was a little larger this year," she said, and everything went as planned without a problem.
"There are enough taxes as it is without increasing them," he said. "I'm in favor of cancer research, but I'm reluctant to support it." He said you have a big surplus (of state revenue)."

"The reason it went so well is a testification of the fact that the administration had nothing to do with it." He pulled in a round of laughter from the audience.
