Stephan says he backs state lottery proposal
United Press International
TOPEKA — Disagreeing with moral arguments against state- sanctioned gambling, Attorney General Robert Stephan yesterday threw his support behind a proposed national amendment for a state lottery.
Stephan told a news conference that the record of 22 states showed a growing trend.
"I believe my support for a state lottery is important because as attorney general, I can honestly say I know of no evidence to substantiate the charge that a state-run lottery will bring unsavory criminal elements into Kansas or will result in fraud and corruption," he said.
He added that statistics — particularly research from Washington state — indicated that the poor were
not likely to be heavy buyers of lottery tickets, a criticism raised by opponents.
The attorney general said that the $30 million to $40 million the state would be expected to net annually from the legalized gambling would be a help in a time of tight revenues. He proposed that the revenues be used for education and economic development.
Stephan added that legalized horse-race gambling and state lotteries now were available in the states surrounding Kansas and that those lotteries would drain off Kansas dollars.
Stephan, who is considering running for governor, also told reporters that he was opposed to a tax increase to finance state government, saying that spending should be cut instead.
Gov. John Carlin has said that he is
not opposed to a lottery, but has pointed out that it is no solution to the state's current money woes, because it could not go into effect before 1987 and then would raise a relatively small amount of money. Last year Carlin proposed a half-cent sales tax
increase, but was rebuffed by the Legislature.
Stephan acknowledged that the lottery proposal would not have an immediate revenue benefit, but said that state spending could be held down in the meantime if necessary.
Police funds to be divested

SENIORS Announcing Hilltoppers
The Jayhawker Yearbook is happy to announce the Hilltoppers. The Hilltopper Awards were established in the 1930's as the Jayhawker's way of recognizing those seniors who have made high calibre contributions to the University and/or the Lawrence community and have consistently displayed unselfish, responsible leadership in non-academic areas of campus life. The award was reestablished in 1984 in order that outstanding seniors may once again be recognized.
Criteria for selection includes:
involvement and leadership in campus and community activities.
—unselfish service to the campus and community
—respect of the nominee's peers as-well-as his or her professors
—references that can address the quality of the nominee's service
—a GPA of around 3.0, however grades will not play an extremely important part in the selection
The nominations will be screened by a committee that includes KU faculty, student representatives, and the Jayhawker staff. Anyone can nominate a senior for this award and seniors can nominate themselves by picking up an application. Nomination forms and applications will be available at the Organizations and Activities Center, 403 Kansas Union, and the Yearbook Office, 121 B Kansas Union. Deadline for acceptance of nominations is Fri., Oct. 11, and the deadline for applications is Fri., Nov. 1, 1985.
