State's juvenile legislation to be topic of conference
By HAROLD CAMPBELL
State legislation concerning such issues as child abuse, juvenile justice and teenage pregnancy will be discussed at a Kansas conference Saturday at the Kansas Union.
The conference is sponsored by the institute and the University of Kansas School of Nursing. The conference will begin at 8:30 a.m. day conference will begin to begin at 9:15 the conference scheduled to begin at 9:15
Forrest Swail, executive director of the institute, said the conference also would bring together state lawmakers in legislation dealing with child health, child research, permanent housing for children
"I hope this conference will encourage more active participation by people in the legislative process on behalf of children," she added. "We should provide information about significant issues affecting children in Kansas and to bring out legislation favorable to children's health."
He said that last year's conference, the first of its kind in Kansas, was instrumental in the passage of a Senate bill requiring teachers to checkebooks before they can enter kindergarten.
SEVERAL STATE officials will be at the conference to discuss each of the seven
areas, including Gov. John Carlin, who will deliver the keynote address to the conference.
Brian Baurle, executive director for the Bureau of Assurance committee for the Prevention of Crimes (BAC), and John Johnson, D-Parsons, will discuss proposed legislation establishing a state commission on homicide.
Other speakers at the conference will include Richard Guthire, chairman of the Kansas Children's Service Medical Center; Ross Copeland of the KU Bureau for Child Research; Jackie Hampton of the Kansas Children's Service Department of the state Department of Education.
Other state legislators at the conference will be Rep. Mike Glover, D-Lawrence, and Rep. Sandy Duncan, R-Wichita.
Swail said interested people should choose one aspect of the conference to attend since different areas of the conference will be presented simultaneously.
He also said people could register early for the conference by calling James Nabors at the KU division of continuing education at 842-384 before tomorrow mornig.
The registration fee for the conference is $20 for non-students, $15 for members of Kansas Action for Children and $10 for students.
Fees may be paid when entering the conference Saturday morning.
University would take any action against Forer for leaving during the term.
"I wouldn't think that we would take any action," he said. "He is acting on his own and he has a right to do so. We want to keep it that way, and not make any premature statements."
Shankel said Forer's classes would be taught by other social welfare instructors.
Reaction
"But this is something we will be checking on," he said.
From nae
Patricia Ewita, associate dean of the School of Social Welfare, said officials from the school would meet with Shankel today to discuss Forer's classes.
Forer teaches four courses, including Community Crisis: Intervention and Change.
Foster's family said Forer and Dillingham expected to meet with unnamed "individuals in Iran national life" to discuss the situation and to work for the release of the hostages.
"I really do believe he's in Iran," Mrs. Forer said, "Otherwise, he would have called to tell us not to issue the information on the trip."
However, she said she had not spoken with Forster since Monday night, when he contacted her from Washington, D.C. She said she hoped to hear from him soon, but she said it probably would be difficult to make a connection from Iran to the United States.
Mrs. Forer said the trip was funded through contributions and loans secured by concerned citizens.

"Iranian students brought it to me last week," Miller said. "I signed it because I was in substantial agreement with the letter. I agreed with the intent of it."
Gary Howe, assistant professor of sociology, said he received Forest's letter, but he would not comment on whether he signed it.
"We really hope that we can pay them back," she said.
Tim Miller, lecturer in religious studies,
said he signed the letter.

The letter criticized Shah Mohammad Mishna, not taking refuge in the United States, and called to the U.S. government support of his regime. The letter also voiced support of a trial for the suspect.
Ferent sent copies of his letter to Khomeini to about 400 educators and community leaders in Kansas on Nov. 25. Several KU faculty members received the letter.
