Man gets life for area killing
Terry McLain, 25, of Lawrence, was sentenced to life in prison Tuesday for the murder of Gene Scott, an area manager for the 7-11 store chain.
Mclain had been convicted of first-degree murder and also of aggravated robbery. McLain was given a 15-year term for his charge, to run consecutively with the first.
The sentences were imposed by judge Kay McFarland of Shawnee County District Court after she rejected a motion for a new trial. Mclain's lawyer, who had been appointed by the court, said he would appeal the case to the Karsas Supreme Court.
Scott was found shot to death in July, several days after he disappeared with $5,000 in receipts from area stores that were to be deposited in a Topek bank.
Commission considers city garage
Sidewalks, traffic signals and the proposed city maintenance garage were again considered by the city commission at its meeting Tuesday.
A motion to remove mid-block pedestrian crossing signals on Massachusetts was
Mark Shelton, commission candidate and downtown merchant, said he liked the crosswalk signals. Commissioner John Ernick, who also has a business downtown, told the reporters the signals, but he worried about elderly pedestrians and in people wheels.
The commission agreed to refer the suggestion to remove the signals to the Downtown Merchants Association, which would make a recommendation at its next meeting.
The commission deferred for another week an ordinance that called for the condensation of properties for a city maintenance garage while the commission awaited a court ruling on a lawsuit to stop the garage of the garage at Second and Indiana.

The Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 has definitely streamlined the grant system to local government, Kyle H. Young, executive director for the community development director, said Monday.
Heardings had begun in November to determine how the funds would be spent.
New act simplifies city funding
The Community Development Act consolidated all of the Department of Housing and Consumer Affairs programs that relate to community development. These programs include urban renewal, model cities, neighborhood zoning, land and basic water and sewer facilities.
Andregg said that such consolidation had made applying to HUD for funds much easier.
Two kinds of funds are available under the program, and amounts are given to cities received.
Andrew said most of the discretionary

Lawrence was granted $329,000 in endowment funds for the first year. $179,000 of that amount is already committed to trust funds and phase out the existing programs.
The remaining $350,000 will be used for acquisition and relocation of property for the Haskell Loop, emergency rehabilitation and remediation training program, beautification of North
Andregg said the city commission and the neighborhood development staff batted around suggestions made at the hearings. Andregg said the city commission approved the budget.
Andregg said he expected to get the money from HUD about July 1.
The programs will be almost completely locally run under the new consolidation, he said.
Erazmus resigns from IEC post after directing center since 1964
Edward Erazmus has resigned as director of the Intensive English Center (IEC), saying Tuesday that he was "tired of directing."
In a letter submitted two weeks ago to the administration and released Tuesday, Erazmus said his resignation would be effective June 30.
"I would like to step down from that position and assume different duties at the University," he said. "It's in the interest of the FC to have a change in direction."
since it was founded in 1964. During his term, most of the facilities for the students have been improved, including classrooms, cafeteria and dormitories. Foster Hall to Wescock Hall last summer.
We have a change in our school.
Erzamus has been director of the center.
Hills can keep penitentiary job
Last spring several students demanded the change of buildings because they thought Foster Hall was dangerous. They wanted to have books and教科书books and better qualified teaching staff.
James Hills, director of education at the Lansing State Pentitentiary and candidate for the Lawrence Board of Education, can keep his tob at the pentitentiary.
Tuesday, Kansas Atty. Gen. Curt Schneider ruled that two of the four provisions in the law were discriminatory in the law used for firing someone from a state job.
Hills was apparently in violation of a Kansas law prohibiting a state employee from selling firearms.
Hills was notified Tuesday that his job at Larsing had been terminated.
The IEC advisory committee won't decide on a successor until its meeting next week. "I hope I can continue my association with the center." Frazzum said.
The provisions called discriminatory by Schneider gave the law different effects on persons living in Class I cities and counties populations of over 300,000.
Another factor is that the school board seat that Hills is seeking no salary.
Three correctional officers at the prison lost their jobs when they became candidates for the Leavenworth City Commission. The city commission jobs pay $10 a year.
There is no way for the candidates to withdraw from the race, although two of the correctional officers are working for their own defeat.
The IBCH has served the foreign student by helping him through the process of language training, he said, and also it has helped him to adjust gradually to our culture.
"We have an established and effective center which has made a big contribution to KU in serving the foreign students," he said.
The main job to be done, Erazmus said, is to seek an extension of the center's services now that it is in a favorable enrollment position.
Possibilities for development are to expand the internal structure of the center, rearrange the administrative process and develop facilities for the foreign student, he said.
