House reconsiders liquor law changes
By United Press International
TOPEKA — The House yesterday reconsidered its rejection of a bill containing an assortment of liquor law changes but the prospects for Sunday beer sales in the state still look slim.
The House voted to reconsider its action after first rejecting the measure, 25-97. The bill is scheduled for more debate today. Lawmakers had hoped to wrap up the 1965 session today.
In making the motion that revived the measure, Rep. Robert H. Miller, R-Wellington, promised to offer an amendment that would strip the bill of all but one of its provisions. That remaining provision would change Kansas law to allow beer distributors to distribute wine to retail liquor stores. Miller said.
A Senate committee voted to clean up the bill by removing the Sunday beer sales portion just before the election, but it ultimately rejected the measure.
Among the provisions falling by the wayside under Miller's promised amendment would be permission for grocery stores and other retail outlets to sell 3.2 percent beer for carryout between the hours of 1 p.m. and 8 p.m. Sundays.
influence.
Sen Edward Reilly Jr, R.L.膝worth, one of the Legislature's chief supporters of legislature to relax liquor laws, said he thought removal of the Sunday sales provision would give the bill a better chance of receiving House approval.

Firm's cultures not unique,prof says
TOPEKA — the chairman of the University of Kansas department of microbiology yesterday testified that the milk-based cultures used by Culture Farms Inc. appear no different from those that could be developed in a laboratory from dairy products, and could be of lower quality.
contacts with officials of Culture Farms.
By United Press International
The Kansas securities commissioner's office is accusing Culture Farms of running a pyramid sales scheme involving at least 200 Kansans among an estimated 12,000 investors across the nation.
Culture Farms is one of several interrelated companies involved in producing Cleopatra's Secret cosmetics, which are made from milk-based cultures grown at home by private individuals. Securities Commissioner John Wurth is attempting to stop the company from doing business, contending they have an illegal pyramid sales scheme that makes its money from the sale of culture-growing kits, rather than the sale of cosmetics.
James Akagi, who has a contract to provide quality control services to Culture Farms, testified during a
hearing on an order by the Kansas securities commissioner to halt operations of the Lawrence firm.
A cease-and-desist order issued by the securities commissioner last month was overturned by Shawnee County District Judge James Buchele, who said the commissioner's office should have conducted an evidentiary hearing first. That hearing began Wednesday.
Akagi's testimony indicated there is nothing unique about the bacterial culture grown in homes. Under questioning from a securities commissioner attorney, Craig Stancliffe, Akagi said the cultures should be grown under sterile conditions and should be better protected from the open air than the present procedure of covering the growing cultures with cheesecloth.
John Myers, director of economic development for the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce, testified earlier yesterday about his initial

Former officials seek Stephan's removal
Petitions being circulated across northwest Kansas demand the resignation of Attorney General Robert Stephan for withholding details of a settlement involving a sexual harassment lawsuit that named him as the prime defendant.
the prime organizers of the petition drive are former Thomas County officials who were prosecuted by Stephan in 1981 for violating the state's open meetings law.
Stephan reached an out-of-court settlement in March with Marcia Tomson, a former secretary in his office who filed a $750,000 sexual harassment suit against him and two members of his staff in 1982. Neither side has disclosed the nature of the settlement.
In announcing that an out-of-court settlement had been reached, Stephan steadfastly maintained his innocence.
Harold Upchurch of Colby, a former member of the Thomas County Hospital Board of Trustees, called for Stephan's resignation yesterday and declared that a moral issue was involved.
Uphchurch and six others were convicted in 1981 for violating Kansas' open meetings law because they held a secret meeting to discuss Thomas County. They should renovate its present hospital or build a new one.
The Kansas Supreme Court upheld the convictions in 1982 and the defendants each were fined $130.
The instigators of the petition drive say Stephan's reluctance to release the contents of the settlement is a
