Rape suspect hearing set for Feb. 22
A Douglas County District Court judge yesterday set a hearing date for a 16-year-old Lawrence yancecured of the Jan. 30 rape of a KU student.
Judge Mike Malone set the adjudicatory hearing, which would be called a trial if the suspect were an adult, for Feb. 22.
Jean Sagan, assistant district attorney, said the district attorney's office was considering asking that the suspect be tried as an adult.
The suspect has been charged with acts that, if committed by an adult, would be classified as rape, armed robbery, led solitary sobbing and aggravated battery.
Kansas law permits anyone 16 years old or older to be tried as an adult.
Malone ordered a psychological evaluation of the suspect.
Sagan said during yesterday's detention hearing that she requested the evaluation because she needed more information to help the district attorney's office decide whether to ask that the suspect be tried as an adult.
MALONE SPECIFIED THAT results from the evaluation would not be allowed as evidence in the suspect's Feb. 22 hearing.
Sagan said the evaluation would give the district attorney's office valuable information about the emotional condition of the suspect.
She said that if the district attorney's office decided to move that the suspect be tried as an adult, the motion would be filed with the district court by Friday.
Malone also appointed a lawyer for the suspect.
Sagan said a new Kansas law now permitted the hearings and records of persons 16 years old or older to be a matter of public record.
Also at the hearing, Malone set bond of $10,000 for the juvenile, who is being detained at the Judicial and Law Enforcement Center.
"My personal opinion is that it makes them more accountable," she said.

President says Senate budget too tight
By SARA KEMPIN Staff Reporter
Ashner vetoes Watergate bill
The student body president yesterday vetoes a bill to bring two Watergate conspirators to speak at the University, saying that Student Senate needs to be fiscally responsible and follow its own rules.
In anticipation of fall 1983 supplemental budget bearings and other fiscal data, the Air Force decided to
Including anticipated revenues, if the Senate did not spend any more money from the unallocated account for the rest of fiscal year 1983, it would have only $33,913.40 for fiscal year 1984, she said.
The bill, which was passed at the last Senate meeting Feb. 10, guaranteed $9,500 from the Senate unallocated account to bring John Ehrlichman and G. Gordon Liddy to speak at the University of Kansas on March 1 and 2.
"With four months left of the current 1983 fiscal year, the Senate has already allocated twice that amount," she said.
Lisa Ashner, the president, said she decided to veto the bill because the Senate did not have enough money in its unallocated account.
MONEY IN THAT account is used in case of emergency and to pay for the cost of equipment.
Ashner said that since the beginning of fiscal year 1983 on July 1, the Senate approved a bill.
fiscally irresponsible to underwrite such a large sum of money, Ashner said.
If the authors of the bill had been able to come up with $2,500 from other sources to help pay for the speakers, she said she might not have vetoed the bill
MOLLIE MITCHELL, one of the authors of the bill, said that because the bill had been passed last Thursday, the state only two work days to find out assistance.
"We just didn't have time to solicit money from other sources before she went back," she said.
The Senate has no right to hoard the unallocated money as it has in the past, she said. The money in the unallocated money is used for students' activities, she said.
"I think it's unfair that she vetoed the bill because we don't have time to try to get it done."
Even if senators vote to override the veto at the next Senate meeting on Feb. 23, there would not be enough time to decide how much time up before the speaking date, she said.
"We could call a special session of the Senate to discuss the issue, but when would we have it?" she said. "Besides that, we would be against the bill at the Senate meeting."
TERRY FREDERICK, Student Senate treasurer, said he had recommended that Ashner veto the bill.
"If the authors of the bill had had more time to plan before they presented the bill, I would have been more likely to go along with it," he said.
She disagreed with Ashner's argument that the unallocated account was too low to use to pay the speakers.
"They never use that money for anything," she said.
Karen Schlueter, law school senator, said she didn't think Ashler was acting in the best interests of the student body by vetoing the bill.
Ehrlichman and Liddy are a part of history and a lot of students were excited about hearing them speak, she said.
"COLLEGE CAMPUSES are known for bringing in controversial speakers," she said. "We seem to have money to bring in the basic, everyday speakers, but not the controversial ones."
Tom Long, Overland Park sophomore, said he was glad Ashner vetowed
KU shouldn't bring Ehrlichman and Liddy to KU at all, he said. Student money should not be used to pay for speeches by convicted criminals, he
"It's even worse that they would have been paid for speaking here," he said.
The Senate's decision to bring the men to the University was too "hush-hush," he said, and there should have been more student input.
