KPL stalks electricity thieves
By ROSE SIMMONS Staff Reporter
Every little bit counts
And that is the Kansas Power and Light Co. takes a dim view of customers who steal energy by energy meters cut off because of nonpayment.
KPI1 is a large company, said Stephen Kline of Sunion division management, but she still fails.
"Every kilowatt-hour produced by KPL has a cost," he said in a recent statement. "When we can't recover the money, we force us to raise the price to others."
WAITE SAID FRIDAY that diversion or use of electric service without paying for it contributes minutely to rate increases.
The increased cost of producing electric energy led KPL to seek an increase in rates, said Fred Bryan, Lawrence division manager. An interim increase of 15.75 percent went into effect June 1, 1980.
This means that a Lawrence residence that uses 1,000 kcalwathtours this month will be billed $77.56 plus tax, an increase of $7.26.
The residence using the same kilowatt hours next month will be billed at the lower winter rate, which is a half cent less per kilowatt-hour. The summer rate from July to September is higher so that customers will be encouraged to conserve energy, Bryan said.
Stealing electric service may be a way to get around the rate increase and a past due bill, but is also can be dangerous.
Tampering with meter boxes without proper property can expose a person to electrical hazards. 240 VAC 16 AMP.
*KPL employees wear protective
work with high voltages*. Waite said.
THE PROBLEM OF electric energy theft is growing, according to Waite.
KPL has started measures to stop
theft or diversion of electric power, he said, to protect customers who do pay for their energy use.
Measures include training meter readers and workers who connect and disconnect service to look for meters in a building and provide an indication of a diversion in progress.
This training has led to the investigation of 19 people suspected of using electric energy without paying for it in Hutchinson this year.
A Hutchinson man was recently sentenced to 30 days in county jail for reconnecting his meter after it was shitty. He was also ordered to order KPJ $181.93.
In Lawrence, a man recently pleaded guilty at a preliminary hearing involving diversion of electric energy from KPL totaling less than $25, according to Bryan. The man faces a possible jail term and fine.
Two other cases of diversion in the Lawrence area are pending investment.

question was how much of the black population would vote.
BOND, 40, was a reporter, feature writer and managing editor for the Atlanta inquirer in the early 1880s. He graduate of Morehouse College in Atlanta.
He was elected in 1965 to the Georgia House of Representatives but was barred from taking his sent by the military, who objected to his statements against the Vietnam war.
Two Lawrence men were injured yesterday when their car went out of control at the 1100 block of Kasold Drive and struck an utility pole.
The victims, Steve Taylor, 2811 Arkansas St., driver of the car, and Kevin Malott, Route 4, were both in stable condition at Lawrence Memorial Hospital where undergoing surgery last night according to a hospital spokesman.
Allen Winter, 1111 Kasold Drive, who witnessed the accident, said the car, which was traveling south on Kasold
Drive, spun around before it jumped the curb and skidded across Winter's back.
Winter, who had been playing football with his son in his backyard, said he heard tires squealing, looked toward the car and saw the car slide backwards into the pole.
"It's the third accident on that curve since we moved here a year and a half ago," he said.
Lawrence police had not yet compelled the report last night and would be able to review it.

Students will have an extra week next semester to decide if the pressures of classes are too much and withdraw it is recorded on their transcripts.
Acting Chancellor Del Shankel said yesterday that the withdrawal policy recommended by the University Council in April would be approved and put into effect during the spring 1881 semester.
The new policy, which was accidentally published in the addendum to this semester's Timetable, divides the additional period into 5-week sections
The policy is now divided into 4-week phases, the first phase ending Friday.
The schedule now allows four weeks to withdraw without any record, three
ACCORDING TO THE new schedule, a student will have five weeks to withdraw from a class and delete it from his record. During the following five weeks, the student will receive a "f" for withdrawing from a class and then send an emailation to withdraw and receive an "F" or "W" for a final grade.
weeks to receive a “W” and after the
week a student must petition to
drop a class.
Confusion resulted last week about the withdrawal policy when University governance realized that the proposal was delayed and the amendment last April had not been approved.
Printing of the new schedule in the addendum was approved by Robert G. Berry, director of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences, who did not realize it was incorrect.
WHEN THE discrepancy between the Timetable and the addendum schedules was discovered, Hoffmann said, the University Council asked Shankel to confirm the University's use of the new schedule.
However, Shankel said that because the schedule had not been approved, the old withdrawal schedule would be effective this semester.
Although it would be possible to start the new policy, this semester, Shankei will continue.
"We don't want it to get any more confused than it already is," he said.
George Worth, University Senate executive committee chairman, said the policy officer was changed so the university would have a uniform withdrawal policy.
