University Daily Kansan, January 20, 1982 Page 5 ERA From page 1 their own ideas into the amendment because they didn't understand it. "Everyone became focused on whose definition was in the news," she said. Ballard also said people with more traditional views didn't give the amendment a chance. "Some of the specifics are threatening, or 'some see them as threatening to their participation.'" "They really hold on to what they believe, and I can't blame them for that." AT THE LAST march for the ERA bill, some members of the New Life Christian Fellowship held a rally. The Fellowship, a local church, tends to adhere to principles that make its members see the ERA as inadequate, said Dick Mauk, one of the church's elders. "The Bible teaches that men are equal in the sight of God but have different roles," he said. "We feel the value of these different rules. We learn from experience knowledge the difference between men and women." "We think protection of equal rights is already part of the law." Mauk said the Fellowship thought women had a legitimate complaint, but he said men were basically selfish and no one could legislate a change of heart. he added that the Fellowship thought ERA would tend to destroy the family and would add to the disdain already felt for the woman's traditional role. "A WOMAN WHO doesn't get out and work is made to feel like a second-class citizen," he said. Lisa Stone, a Dodge City junior at KU, joined the Fellowship about the first week of November. *Stone surmised that the church thought a woman's plan to home with the family, but she could work.* “That’s kind of tough,” she said when asked for her opinion on the amendment. “Let's just say I believe women should be given equal pay for equal work and no job should be denied because of sex, but I don't believe a statute like ERA is needed.” "But I've never really heard anyone state it," she said. in Lawrence. There are more KU people, and there are more people at the child-bearing age." From page 1 The "mini baby boom" has also brought about changes in the hospital, Friede said. "I'm not sure about the abortion rate," she said, "but I think it's becoming not so bad to be a single parent any more. Our adoption rate is lower. Less people are willing to give up their families." "When I worked here three or four years ago, our average number of patients on the floor was eight or 12," she said. "Now we consider 12 patients a low." Our staff is better. We've improved with the demand on our time." both Friede and Campbell agree that the trend is actually a reflection of a nationwide growth in births. Babv "It is to some degree," Campbell said. "Some of my colleagues in Kansas City hospitals report not quite the same increase, but they do seem to be going up." "We are filling up units many more times. McNair draws life sentence A 23-year-old Topeka woman was sentenced to imprisonment yearend in connection with an investigation into a homicide. By BECKY ROBERTS Staff Reporter Gwendolyn McNair, who was convicted of murdering Terry L. Brown on Dec. 22, was denied a motion for a new trial and sentenced by District Court Judge James W. Paddock. 1 THINK it also depends upon the population Brown's body was found Aug. 12 by a passing motorist on a county road about six miles northwest of Lawrence. Coroner's reports said Brown died multiple gunshot wounds. Following McNair's conviction of first-degree murder, a new trial was requested as part the normal appeal process, according to David Berkwitz. McNair's court-appointed attorney. The request was filed because of several alleged errors in the original trial. Among the alleged errors were the State's use of evidence and witnesses. According to Berkowitz, some of the defendant's statements were "not freely and voluntarily given" to Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents. Berkowitz also disagreed with the State's endorsement of Luark as a chief witness. Luark, a Topeka resident, was also involved in the murder. On Dec. 4, he was convicted of second-degree murder. Judge Paddock sentenced him to fifteen years to life imprisonment. "She was ultimately worn out by persistence," Berkowitz said. Paddock denied McNair a new trial because the defense's complaints were not substantial, he said. Information taken from McNair had been released to the KBI and volunteered her statements. Paddock said it was acceptable to use Luark as a chief witness because the defense had been notified five to ten days before the trial. Berkowitz had interviewed Luark before the trial. The witnesses, McNair and Luark, agreed that they brought Brown to Lawrence on Aug. 11 to question her about a burglar that had occurred at McNair's apartment in Topeka. They accused him of stealing Brown following an argument when Brown, McNair and Luark had gotten out of the car. After the shooting, McNair and Laurk returned to McNair's apartment in Topeka. They were arrested after a three-day investigation by the KBI. A five-man seven-woman jury found McNair Counsel a murder deric D.22 in Douglas D court District.Court Berkowitz an appeal would be filed in McNair's case it will be at least six months before the court's decision.
