LEAVENWORTH — (UPI)— A habeas corpus hearing to decide life or death for convicted killer Lowell Andrews resumes today in district court here. The hearing opened last month but was recessed until today to give defense attorneys time to obtain depositions from psychiatrists on Andrews' mental condition.
Andrews, a former student at the University of Kansas, is under the death sentence for the murder of his parents and his sister in 1585 at the family home near Wolcott.
The U.S. Supreme Court has denied an appeal filed by Andrews' attorneys.
Two-Bit Buffalo Tags Won't Sell
TOPEKA, Kan. — (UPI) — Kansas is stuck with 502,707 unsold centennial auto tags.
State Highway Director Addison Meshke said yesterday he may seek legal help on what can be done with the tags, which are stored all over the state in county treasurers' offices and at a former technical institute here.
The tags, featuring a brown buffalo on white background with the words "Kansas Centennial 1961" have been on sale for the past two years, but only 128,952 of the tags were sold at 25 cents each.
Meschke doesn't know if the highway department will be allowed to dump or discard the tags.
