Apartheid protester gets postponed trial
By a Kansan reporter
A Douglas County prosecutor was granted a continuance yesterday in the trial of an anti-paraphied protester because of a conflict with trials.
Jerry Wells, an associate district attorney, requested a continuance from Associate District Judge Jean Shepherd at 9 a.m. for the trial of Mark T. Parker, 25, Lawrence. Parker was arrested May 9 for criminal trespassing at Youngberk Hall on West Campus.
The trial was scheduled for 2 p.m. yesterday in Douglas County District Court, but now will be at 3:30 p.m. on Oct. 22.
Jack Klinknett, Parker's attorney, said yesterday that Wells had started a trial Tuesday, which ran over into Wednesday.
Klinknett said continuing the trial would not be a problem.
"I don't think it's a big deal," he said. "We can accomplish the same thing on Oct. 22 as we could have today."
Although Parker asked Klinknett to request that the continuance be denied, he said yesterday that he didn't mind waiting for the trial.
"It's a little irritating," he said, but it's not that important to me. "It seems like the district attorney's office is a little unorganized."
Parker was scheduled to appear in Douglas County District Court instead of Lawrence Municipal Court because he had refused to provide identification when he was arrested at Youngberg.
Flat economy hurts universities
By Gary Duda Of the Kansan staff
The Kansas economy isn't rebounding from the recession of the mid-70s and that's not good for state universities, a member of the Kansas Chamber of Commerce and Industry said yesterday.
"We don't think Kansas is very well positioned economically for the 90s," said Bud Grant, vice president and general manager of KCCl. "Economic development in this state is not going forward. It's flat."
Grant was speaking at a meeting titled "Business Agenda '86," at the Lawrence Holiday Inn Holidome, 200 McDonald Drive, yesterday morning. Grant said his group was getting the Kansas economy moving again. Lawrence was KCCT's ninth stop in the tour.

Legislature. The group, which works out of Topeka, has more than 3,200 members in 121 local chambers of commerce.
State Sen. Wint Winter Jr., R-Lawrence, and State Rep. Jessie Branson, D-Lawrence, attended the meeting, which was co-sponsored by the Lawrence Chamber of Commerce.
Grant said Kansas' stagnant economy presented a special problem to educational institutions because education costs continued to rise.
"Education takes a larger and larger part of the state budget each year," he said.
Ed Bruske, KCCI president, said the suffering economy could be partly traced to the loss of educated workers to other states because not enough jobs were available for graduates of Kansas universities. Therefore, young people were forced to go to other states for work.
"Economic growth is a principle interest to education," he said. "It helps pay for it, and it provides our
students with the opportunity to become taxpayers. We spend all this money on education, and our young people have to go elsewhere for jobs.'
Winter said the sluggish economy could also affect the quality of education. He didn't think the economy needed to grow rapidly but rather to reach a healthy level.
"We don't need to have tremendous growth," he said. "We need to have a good, strong, stable economy. If we allow the economy downtown to result in a downturn in our quality of education, that would be a tragedy."
Winter said even with the slow down in economic growth, it was important to maintain quality in education. If the state maintained that quality, businesses would be more willing to stay in the state and provide jobs.
