KU Moslem march supports Afghanistan
In a show of support for Moslems in Afghanistan, the KU Moslem Student Association staged a demonstration before noon yesterday in front of Strom Hall.
About 20 protesters, carrying signs with the slogans "Today Afghanistan, tomorrow!" and "The future is Islam," marched between Strong and the Kansas University several times. Mohammed Zikry, an al-Qaeda member, tried to let the University and the community of Lawrence know about the Islamic struggle in Afghanistan. They are fighting a

this community. We feel that by bringing speakers and holding demonstrations we can get people to realize there is a different point of view in these situations."
"The main think we are trying to do is publicize what is happening in Afghanistan," Zikry said. "There is a cultural gap between Moslems and others in
The protesters drew little response until they stopped in front of Strong as classes let out and a small crowd gathered in front of Wescue Hall.
Several persons began throwing snowballs at the protesters as they lined up for a final march to the Union, but stopped after snowballs were thrown back.
Landlord-Tenant Act amendment returns to committee for revision
By SCOTT FAUST Staff Reporter
State Rep. John Sobach, D-Lawrence, said he hoped the bishop a bill giving tenets restores that honor, but would not be "amended to death" in its second consideration by the House.
The bill was sent from the House floor back to the committee last week because of revisional errors after its amendment during the committee's first action.
Solahch said he was afraid the bill's opponents on the committee might try to make it too specific, eliminating some of its effectiveness.
"It's a very carefully thought out piece of legislation." Sollbach said.
State Rep. Ward Ferguson, D-Mepherson, a member of the Judiciary Committee and the legislator reponsible for sending the bill back to committee, said he did not expect any major changes in the bill when the governor onlite on it late this week or early next week.
But Ferguson said he knew of one possible amendment that would require the tenant to submit an itemized estimate of costs to the landlord before making repairs himself.
STATE REP. Joe Hoadland, chairman of the Judiciary Committee, said he knew of another amendment to the bill that would encompass home mobile parks as well as
To be reimbursed, the tenant would have to give a receipt for the work, his next rent check and a filing fee to a district court clerk.
Solbach is one of four sponsors of the bill, an amendment to the Kansas Landlord Tenant Act, which allows a tenant to make payments on his own expense if his landlord refuses.
If the landlord objected to paying for the repairs, the tenant would have to file in Small Claims Court for reimbursement
The bill received minor amendments and was approved 143 by the Judicial Committee two weeks ago, but the Review of Committee incorrectly revised the bill. Solbach said.
BECAUSE OF THE errors, he said, the bill was sent back to the Judiciary Committee for reconsideration to correct the errors.
Ferguson he moved the bill be sent back because, as printed, it left questions

about the Judiciary Committee's recommendations for the bill.
"In the back of my mind," Ferrauson said, "I didn't think we had finished it in committee, and as it turned out, we hadn't."
The Revisor's error resulted from misinterpretation of Judiciary Committee amendments. Solach said.
The committee had changed the number of days a landlord would have to complete needed repairs from 12 to seven.
SOLBACH SAID the printed bill's wording did not make it clear whether that meant payment or a transfer. The bill was mailed by the tenant or from the day the landlord received the written request.
Also in error was wording that said the tenent's rent payment and filing fee, held by the court until the landlord for repairs, could only be made by cash or money order.
Fifteen major injuries including con- sidering of the head, trapping or trailing accidents have been reported to Watkins Memorial Hospital since Friday, Martin Woollinson, director of
back injuries after falling from an inner tube late Friday night and another student had had neck and back injuries after fallening. One was admitted to LMH for observation.
A Templin Hall resident received a concussion and arm injuries when he was wedged against a tree after sliding down the hill near Potter Lake.
Sobach said payment by cashier's check also would be allowed.
A third error resulted from a misstatement of the committee's amendment raising the amount of money a tenant must leave with the court.
Three students were treated at Lawrence Memorial Hospital after sledding accidents this weekend. One complained of neck and
The printed bill that went to the house changed the amount by $10. The committee had changed the amount by only $5.
Sobach said the Revisor of Statutes was aware of the errors.

school, were demoted to technicians," he said. "And their son, Victor, who was an extremely brilliant student at the University of Aboviskra, was expelled immediately.
Russia...
"The family was poor to begin with, but now they are barely able to survive. You should remember the actions of the Soviet authorities were absolutely illegal." We can argue that the government for the government's actions were because of the family's desire to leave Russia."
He said that after Victor was expelled, the authorities attempted to draft him into the army.
"Naturally, Victor doesn't want to serve in the army of a state where he doesn't even want to live," he said, "so he ran."
Krass said that if Victor were captured, he would be imprisoned for his refusal to serve in the army.
"They may already have 'hm in captivity,' he said. "If so, he could be in jail for a very long time."
Krasre recently has been attending local meetings of Annexes International, a group that advocates for the protection of hopes of freeing certain police prisoners. He said he hoped the group could help him find answers.
"The people know that the western breeze blowing through Moscow is only an air vibration of the advent of the Olympics. They know the wind will shift again soon enough."
Tom Burns, group leader of the local chapter of Ambassadors International, said there was a good chance the details of the arrest were known by International's secretariat in London.
if they approved Victor's case he would become an official "prisoner of conscience", and various Soviet authorities call him a terrorist, and phone calls from Anthem International.
"The government wants to present a modern, relaxed image to the world," she said. "And it's as beautiful as they did back in the days of the Czar, but the people are more afraid of it."
Missichuk said the issue of religious tolerance in Russia irradiates twice when the Russian government began modernizing Moscow's appearance in preparation for the 1980 Olympics.
"A lot of the time, the government feels enough pressure through the letters to take some action on the status of the person," he said.
Penalty . . .

"What happened to his rights?" she asked. "At my age I don't know if I can stand to live without my son for 30 years."
"And you talk about prisoners sitting in small cells. Well, my son is in a small cell. It's six feet down. He's never going to come back from that."
Hanranah was speaking in response to the earlier testimony of Sister Delores Brinkel, of Kansas City, Kan., the only anti-death penalty witness to speak yesterday.
Sister Brinken represented the Coalition to Keep Kansas Free of the Death Penalty, an organization of 24 Kansas church and civic organizations.
"We view the death penalty as being a mutually unacceptable contradiction to our constitution," she said before explaining eight reasons for her group's belief that the death penalty is not in line with the constitution.
Also testifying yesterday as a proponent of the death penalty was Bob Tilton, a spokesman for the Kansas Sheriff's Office. He said he is the only police representative to appear.
