Senator delays water bill hopes farmers will testify
TOPEKA - A State Senator said yesterday that he would postpone voting on a bill to make surface water allocations conditional on minimum streamflow standards until next week, hoping that more people would testify on the bill.
Sen. Charlie Angell, R-Plains, chairman of the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, said testimony during yesterday's committee meeting should prompt some farmers, business owners and city officials to testify on how the bill could affect them.
The water appropriations bill is the first part of a statewide water plan emphasizing conservation and planning.
KU Quiz Bowl to test trivia experts
Trivia experts should start brushing up on their knowledge of politics, sports, literature and everything else because the time is approaching. You will need to have some background.
Doug Hensley, co-chairman of the KU Quiz Bowl Committee described the event as "the olympics of the mind." He said he expected more than 30 teams to enter.
Hensley said teams could apply at the Student Union Activities office in the Union. The deadline for registration is Jan. 26, and there is a $12 entry fee.
Lawmakers to study rest-area plan
TOPEKA — A plan to dismantle 20 rest areas and roadside parks across the state has been put on ice so that the Legislature can consider ways to keep them open, the head of the Kansas Department of Transportation said yesterday.
John Kemp, secretary of transportation, said his decision was the result of a meeting with the House Transportation Committee during the State Republican convention.
"The agreement with the committee was not to remove physical facilities on any of the 20 until the end of the session." Kemp said.
The department already has dismantled six of 26 rest areas scheduled for closing, leaving 20 still closed but not yet dismantled. Kemp said he had expected lawmakers to challenge his administrative decision to restore rest areas, but did not expect the backlash he received Monday.

Ronald Willis, chairman of the department of theatre, said he didn't think that the University Theatre had policy promoted discrimination.
The investigation began last semester after a complaint of discrimination in the casting of "Hair" was made to Chancellor Gene A. Budg. He relayed the complaint to the Human Relations Committee. Gordon said.

For at least two KU students, the problems ranged loud with the $175 and $85 the students paid to have their phones reconnected.

"I think the policy, as I perceive it, is fine," he said.
'It may be a report that will say "Let's modify the policy of the theater, let's earmark certain positions for minorities.' Or it may say "Well, everything is fine." Jake Gordon. University
The sub-committee is comprised of Vernell Spearman, acting director of the Office of Minority Affairs, and Roy Goldberg. Prairie Village, senior.
Some KU students came back from winter break to a dead phone. But that was not the worst of their problems.
Gordon said that because the two students had filed the discrimination charges with the Office of Affirmative Action, the issue was a legal one.
Phone reconnection fees anger two KU students
THE OTHER STUDENT, Christine Cressie, auditioned for the open call for the musical and was cast with Washington as part of the chorus.
UNDER THOSE CRCUMSTANCES, he said, the Human Relations Committee can do no more than appoint a committee to review University Theater policy and make recommendations to the Senate Executive Committee.
Goldberg said Willis had told the sub-committee that some productions might call for a particular gender or race, but that the Theatre would try to produce enough plays or musicals to represent minorities.
One of the students, Josie Washington, Lawrence senior, said that she was cast in the musical as part of the crowd designated as black, without being tested for voice range or doing a reading audition.
Both students had their service suspended while they were gone during the holiday break, a problem other teachers had to face after a month's vacation.
Harry Crockett, Lincoln, Neb., triet, tried to use his telephone after he returned from vacation. But it was out of order, or so he thought.
To report the problem he went to a friend's house to use the phone, but it
would be permanently disconnected in 10 days.
When contacted, Southwestern Bell said that service would be established if their overdue bills were paid. But he was told that an additional $175 deposit would be needed to keep his service online and unconnected permanently. Crockett said.
"Students aren't going to get much slack." he said. "They are particularly hard on students. They have that option."
"I ASKED IF I could pay the deposit in installments and they said absolutely not," Nolte said.
The $175 was an average of the previous two months of service, a phone company service representative said.
"At that point my jaw dropped," he
said, the first time we were
ever late with the bill.
The phone bill was due Dec. 17 and the phone was disconnected Jan. 4. Crockett said he received no notice before the disconnection.
In the rush to get home for Christmas, Crockett said, he and his four roommates had forgotten about their telephone bill.
Clyde Chapman, director of Lawrence Consumer affairs Association said he thought that the phone company was harder on students than on other
mail and by telephone but received no response, he said.
Pauli Knight, Southwestern Bell residential service center manager in the Lawrence office, said that it is necessary for staff to be on deposits, it was usually allowed
CROCKETT SAID HE tried to explain that he and his roommates were out of town, but the service repressed it unsympathetic to explanation he said.
Another KU student had a similar problem when he returned from winter
Jeff Nolte, Fulton Mo., senior, also has his phone disconnected while he was
"Apparently they received the money but it wasn't enough to cover the whole bill. Note: When I call them Jan. 3, the phone was disconnected."
"Our representatives should know that, but we have 29 and it is possible that one didn't," she said.
In Nolte's case, he said that he sent $20 to the phone company before he got his bill and another $20 sometime in December.
deposit and the remainder of the unpaid bill.
When Nolte called the phone company, an employee said Nolte's phone number was 1-800-456-7890.
However, Knight said that the phone company was not harder at adhidates.
