Sewer drains peril riders

Police stop fight at Yuk
Six Lawrence policemen were called to break up a disturbance at the Yuk Up in Hillcrest Shopping Center at about 11 p.m. Saturday.
According to the police, the patrolmen arrived at the Yuk Up, a pool hall, and found 13 to 18 men outside the hall shouting obscenities and blocking traffic.
The police said the men were harassing another man, Raymond Marshall, 18, 124 New Jersey. Marshall told the police that the men had entered the Yukup and had begun threatening people with clubs and sticks.
Marshall said he disarmed the men and they then became agitated.
The report said that as Marshall was taking to police, several of the men came in and they were killed.
The officers restrained the men and arrested Saad Dayath, 23, 1607 W. 9th. Fayath was charged with simple assault given notice to appear in Municipal Court.
In other police activity, two bicycles were reported stolen from a storage cage at Meadowbrook apartments. Rafael Perez, reported the value of the bikes as about $200.
A man was being held on $2,500 bond in Douglas County Jail on charges of grand theft and theft. David Redding, 18, Omaha, Neb., was arrested Saturday.

Saturday morning, on land near the reservoir owned by the U.S. Army Corps of Eigneers, about 50 members of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and members of Emporia Kansas State College (EKSC) Army ROTC practiced map reading and orientation.
At Clinton, the ROTC upperclassman practiced using maps to travel cross-country, leaving the freshmen on top of a hill to learn the basic of map reading.
About 60 ROTC cadets practiced their future military trade this weekend near Fort Myers.
Cadets drill near Clinton
"See this symbol?" a major asked the freshmen. "What does it look like?"
"Very good," the Major said. "A symbol such as this signifies a barn or similar building not used to house people.
THE JUNIORS, supervised by the seniors, followed their maps through a wooded valley, across a small stream and into a pasture. After walking a total of a mile and a quarter, they missed their target by only five yards.
"Ah, that wasn't too bad," Mark Evans, Bartlesville, Okla., junior, said. "I once lost a whole platoon in the Swamps of North Carolina."
By 11 a.m. the combined EKSC and KU units had left Clinton for the Lawrence Airport. From there three Chinook helicopters, provided the 190th U.S. Army Reserve Aviation Company from Olathe, to Sherman Airfield at FL Leavenworth.
If a bicycle rides over a storm swer drain with grillwork that runs parallel to the street, his tires may catch in the drain. This parallel grillwork is often just wide enough for a narrow bicycle tire to be caught. When this happens, spills are almost unavoidable.
"This is a gun, not a Matiel toy," the sergeant in charge of the Leavenworth range told those who hadn't fired an M16 before. "It is very dangerous."
THE SERGEANT demonstrated the relatively soft lack of the M16 by firing one forward.
The cadets, two KU students, four other students interested in ROTC and three photographers fired 5,000 rounds of M16 bullets at Leavenworth small arms target range.
Torrent storm drains on south Iowa, near Gibson Discount Center, have grill work that runs parallel to the street. Bicycle accidents on the busy federal highway.
Each shooter fired one clip (25 rounds) of ammunition with the M16s on semi-automatic, one shot at a time, as well as a 30-round automatic, up to 25 shots in an burst of fire.
The accuracy of the gunners varied with their experience, but the sergeant seemed impressed with the automatic fire of some of the new marksmen.
After firing the M165, the cadets practiced cleaning them. They disassembled each gum and cleaned and lubricated each part. The cadets then returned it for the 28-minute return flight to Lawrence.
Many other storm sewer drains in the city are either covered by grillwork that runs perpendicular to the street or they are narrow and uncovered.
Leonard, Hoover, city engineer, said
Frankay that the city didn't install parallel
pathways.
that modern drain construction design called for narrow uncovered drains.
Hoover said that metal straps covering the storm sewer drains have been installed from 15th and Iowa to 19th and Iowa. He said that these straps made the parallel grillwork on the storm sewer drains on that part of Iowa much safer for cyclists.
But Hoover said that the State Highway Department still used parallel grillwork on the front and rear.
Evelyn Lenzen, vice chairman of the Lawrence Traffic Safety Commission, said the commission had been working on improving bicycle lanes for more than four years.
"This isn't a new problem," Lennen said. "But I'm afraid cyclists will just have to be cautious."
Economic concerns are most frequently mentioned by area legislators Saturday at a breakfast sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce.
Attending and answering questions were State Sen. Arden Booth, R-Lawrence and State Rep. Mike Glover, D-Lawrence, John Hale, R-Lawrence, and Lloyd Buzzi, R-Lawrence.
Booth said that a bill concerning rape trials had an excellent chance of being passed. The bill would prohibit questioning of the victim's sexual history in the courtroom unless the judge would consider it. The judge would then decide the relevance, and if so, a private conference. The bill was passed in the Senate and is now in the House.
Vogel said the legislature was indirectly working for tax reductions through legislative action. The program that would provide $32 million more in state aid for public schools. He said the bill would ease local laws, which were the main reason for tax increases.

difficult to know where to make spending cuts in those areas.
"We see companies get out of health insurance or we'll see rates skyrocket."
Burzi said a bill that would allow legislators to make appointments to the University of Kansas Medical Center was killed in committee.
Booth said he supported a land assessment bill that would allow farmland to be taxed on the basis of its potential to produce revenue rather than on its market value. The bill is in the Senate Assessment and Taxation Committee.
Both Booth and Buzzi said that a minimum wage law passed by the Senate would have trouble in the House. The bill requires workers ages 18 and over $1.60 an hour.
The small businesses, "Ma and Pa type of
Glover said, reorganization of the Kansas judicial system was needed. He said a bill to create a Kansas Court of Appeals would cut the time it takes to appeal. Under the present system, it takes some cases up to 19 months to be appealed, he said.

In other action Friday, the Board:
—Asked the Kansas Legislature to approve funding of about $3.8 million for the visual arts building for fiscal years 1976 and 1977.
—Approved sick leave pay for four KU faculty members. Shankel said the approval was necessary since the Kansas attorney general ruled the University didn't

and was thus unauthorized to grant paid
leave.
Shankel said a policy developed by Mike Davis, University general counsel, was being studied by the Faculty Rights, Privileges and Responsibilities Committee should receive it. If adopted, Shankel said, the policy should move next week for his approval.

expenditure limitations on the emergency employment act from $5,000 to $10,000.
- Authorized the Med Center to conduct a noncredit course at Wichita State University in its division of continuing education.
- Authorized the University to use $6,000 of restricted fees money to renovate the north wing of the first floor in Carruth罗'Leary Hall. The wing will be used by the office of facilities planning and operation and the purchasing office.

Berkowitz said it would be nearly impossible to get a conviction if the husband and wife were living together, especially if they were living together after the offense occurred.

"As long as they are living together, there seems to be some implied consent," he said. Haggard said she would favor a bill like the one proposed because it would be easier to pass into law.

Another development in the area of rage occurred two weeks ago when the U.S. Supreme Court ruled to overturn a Georgia statute that forbade the publication of a rape victim's name. Kansas does not have a statute forbidding the publication.

"One of the first questions victims ask is if their names will be released," she said. Berkowitz said, "I think it is very poor journalism to print the name of the victim."
"WEDNESDAY CHILD"
He said that the public was entitled to know that the crime was committed, the person that was arrested, if there was a police officer in town where the crime was committed.
Spokesmen for the Lawrence Daily Journal-World and the University Daily Kansan said Sunday that the policy of their papers was that names of rape victims were excluded and that they forewarn no changes in the policy because of the Supreme Court decision.
