Student blames text for strange behavior
A KU Public Safety Officer found more than he expected while investigating reports of a naked man wandering around the campus Friday night.
The subject, a KU freshman, was found just north of Lot 19 on Irving Hill Road and was unresponsive to questions. The Public Safety Office said that the subject was walking around slowly and would not respond to the officer or to being handcuffed.
Suspecting a drug reaction, the officer had medical help called in and the subject was taken to Lawrence Memorial Hospital about midnight Saturday.
About two hours later, the student woke up and told officers how he might have ended up naked in the parking lot.
The Public Safety Office said that the student told police he had been in his apartment reading a religion textbook when he started staring at his big toe.
He said he then realized that all people have animals inside and are all worms. The Public Safety Office said that he thought he was a worm.
The student's roommate reported to police that the student had started acting strange Friday night. The roommate said the student had told him that he had found seven identical moles on his body that represented the seven deadly sins.
According to the Public Safety Office, the student became combative and had to be sedated and involuntarily admitted to a mental hospital.
A drug test was administered to the student at the hospital, but the results of the tests are not known.

Lawrence police car vandalized by student
A Haskell Indian Nations University student was arrested early yesterday
morning in connection with the vandalism of a Lawrence police squad car a day earlier.
the incident began at 12:44 a.m. Sunday in the street in front of Los Amigos Salon, 508 Locust St., when an officer left his car there while making a routine bar check, Lawrence police said.
When the officer returned to his car about 10 minutes later, he discovered that his radio antenna had been damaged and that the hood, passenger side and trunk had been scratched, police said.
Police said the student, 19, was suspected of vandalizing the car after interviewing the bar's employees, who said the student had become angry after having been refused service because he was a minor.
The employees also said that the student was seen walking in the direction of the car after he was refused service.
The student was contacted the next day and interviewed at a Haskell residence hall, where police arrested him shortly after midnight for criminal damage to property.
The damage to the car was $1,000.
Criminal damage more than $500 is a felony.
Threatening call leads to confrontation, arrest
A 22-year-old Haskell Indian Nations University student was arrested Sunday evening for threatening two Lawrence men outside of his house, Lawrence police said.
Police said the two victims, 27 year-old twins, had received a threatening call from the student shortly before 5 p.m.
"They got a call from the suspect," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler. "He said, 'I have a bullet for you.'"
Wheeler said that upon hearing this, the victims left their home in the 400 block of Ohio and went to the student's home in the 400 block of West 18th Street.
The victims told police that the student then came out of the house armed and aimed a pistol at them.
"He had a pistol in one hand a knife in the other," Wheeler said.
The student was then arrested for aggravated assault and criminal threat, police said.
KU student arrested for window peeping
Police said the confrontation stemmed from prior arguments between the twins and the student.
A 27-year-old male KU student was arrested after police caught him looking through the window of a 22-year-old woman's home early yesterday morning.
The incident began when Lawrence
When police arrived at the woman's house, in the 1000 block of Kentucky Street, they saw the man standing by the front door looking in.
police received a call from the woman's neighbor.
"So, we watched him watch her for awhile," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Police then arrested the man, whose pants were unzipped, for window peeping at 12:03 yesterday morning. He was released at 2:45 a.m.
Police said the woman, who is also a KU student, hadn't known that she was being watched.
Lawrence Bus Company reported to police last weekend the theft of $8,000 during a five-month period.
Lawrence Bus Company reports $8,000 stolen
The company reported that on Nov. 2, 1998, someone had stolen a master key that opens the fare boxes in each of the 37 buses.
"By the end of January, they had discovered money missing from each of the 37 buses," said Lawrence Police Sgt. George Wheeler.
Police said the company had been waiting to report the thefts until after it had changed the locks.

Satirical handout targets dress in greek community
A handout, created to examine issues in a satirical manner, targeted the greek community in a publication first distributed March 30.
The handout, which depicted the dress of a fraternity and sorority member, was created by Steve Prince, Highland Park, Ill., senior, and University Daily Kansan advertising staff member.
Prince said that this issue of his publication was done in good humor. He said that in previous issues, he had applied satire to other topics such as alcoholism and anti-drug campaigns.
"This publication is in no way affiliated with the Kansan," Prince said. "It was done on my own time, and it was printed at Kinko's. The views presented are my own, not of anyone at the Kansan or on staff."
"The advertising staff of the Kansan has no control over the editorial content in the paper, and, therefore, those staff members are not governed by the editorial rules of the Kansan."
Ann Premer, McPherson senior and editor of the Kansan said Prince's views did not reflect those of the Kansan.
Prince's handout has been published about every two weeks since August.

City Commission to lose 18 years of experience
Continued from page 1A
"Like anything you do for eight years, there are going to be good times and bad times," Nalbandian said. "One difficult thing is the certainty that people have that they always think they are right, and if the commission does not go along with it, then they think there is a hidden agenda. It is hard after eight years...it sort of wears you down."
City Manager Mike Wilden said that Nalbandian was dedicated to his job as a city commissioner. Wilden has been the city manager for nine years, after working as the assistant city manager for 15 years.
working as a teacher.
"He was a delight to work with." Wildgen said. "He always looked at broad policy issues and was great at broadening the scope of looking at a project."
brominating Along with Nalbandian, commissioners Bonnie Augustine and Bob Moody have not sought re-election.
Mayor Marty Kennedy said he would remember Nalbandian as someone with a lot of professionalism.
"We are losing a combined 18 years on the commission," Wildgen said. "John had a lot of knowledge and feeling for the issues. He leaves behind a legacy that will be here for years."
"I will miss his desire to have the city commission function to meet the city's needs," Kennedy said. "He always encourages us all to get involved and work with not just the city government but the community as a whole."
Nalbandian, who lives on Riviera Court with his wife, Carol, said that he did not expect to seek positions in city government in the future because his strongest ability was as a teacher.
"This is not a career for me." Nalbandian said. "I am a full-time faculty member. That is what I do best."
