Judge commits woman to hospital in fire case
A Douglas County District Court judge today committed a Lawrence woman to Larned State Hospital after she entered a plea of not guilty by reason of insanity to a charge of aggravated arson.
Court records show that Judge Ralph King ruled that Judy Stutz did commit the crime but said that a jury would
acquit her for reasons of insanity.
STULTZ WAS accused of setting fire Feb. 7 to the basement of a house at night.
Stults will now be institutionalized for mental care and her safety. King said
Before being released from Larned, the defendant would have to prove she was not a danger to herself or the community, King said.

Expense increase met with hope, dismay
A legislative conference committee's approval Wednesday of a 6.5 percent increase in Regents schools operating expenses in 2014 will be billed by KU officials yesterday.
Chancellor Gene A. Budig said he was pleased with the committee's approval of the increase.
Marlin Harmony, chairman of the chemistry department, said the increase would not help alleviate his department's shortage of supplies.
However, several KU professors said that the committee's recommendation would do little to ease the equipment costs and summer's 4 percent budget reduction.
BUDIG SAID, "It appears that we have a good chance to have our best OOE budget in three years," Budig said in a statement. "This is encouraging."
"Given the state of the economy, one has to be encouraged on this front which is basic to our educational computers and scientific equipment."
Carlin's 4 percent budget reduction
last summer cut $80,000 from chemistry's operating expense budget. Many other Liberal Arts and Sciences departees cut by 30 percent to 50 percent he said.
“If we’re talking about restoring it to its original level, that’s reasonable,” he said. “If the 6.5 percent is after the drought, then it’s awful. It’s a terrible budget.”
LAST SUMMER'S reduction has left the chemistry and other science departments with deteriorating equipment and a shortage of chemicals and supplies, he said. If the University again does not receive enough state support, he said, its science departments would be severely hurt.
Gerhard Zuther, chairman of the department of English, said that the 6.5 percent increase would not bring his department's operating expense budget up to the level before last summer's cut.
The reduction forced the English department to cut out many services, such as department telephones and class syllabuses. The department's operating expense budget was cut by 16,000 from $34,000 to about $16,000. Zouther said.
"I don't know whether the difference
between 6.5 and 7 percent will make a hell of a lot of difference to us. It will not enable us to put the phones back in."
HARMONY SAID. "The recission this year has been very disastrous. One can live through one year, but two years in it — I don't know how we can make it."
Budig expressed disappointment in the committee's rejection of Gov. John Carlin's proposed $700,000 plan for a state work-study program, which would provide more jobs for KU students.
He said the University would try to gain private support and increased federal support for scholarships and student financial aid.
"I was disappointed with the elimination of the governor's work-study program," he said. "I fear that we are facing an increase in pricing out many able young students."
The legislative conference committee did agree to bring up the work-study proposal in the session's final appropriations measure, the omnibus bill.
BUDIG SAID HE was pleased that
the committee agreed to a $1 million high-technology package to be divided among KU, Kansas State University, Wichita State University and Pittsburgh State University. He said, however, that the university's Carlin originally allocated $1.5 million for high-tech industry, to be matched by money from private industry.
Jan Roskam, professor of aerospace engineering, said, "I'm disappointed by the amount, but I'm encouraged that they approved it at all. It does show vision and courage on their part, and I pleased to see that."
Rokam has asked the Legislature to help finance a flow phenomena laboratory at KU in which information is dragged of airplanes could be studied.
Harmony said he thought $1 million was not enough money to attract high-tech industry to the state.
"Well, it could not be accomplished for $1 million for the whole state." Harmony said. "That's nonsense. They're dividing it among four universities. High-tech development requires major commitment to funds."

Board members yesterday defended their performance in the regulation of south central Kansas' coal mining
IN A RECENT letter to Gov. John Carlin, the director of the U.S. Interior Department's Office of Surface Mining
PITTSBURG, Kan. — The state's mining board unanimously recommended keeping mining regulation in state hands yesterday, despite federal allegations that the state has failed to adequately perform its job.
