Minors,booze don't mix well
By BILL GRAY Kansan Staff Reporter
Many students at the University of Kansas consider the problem of purchasing lumber under the age of 21 to be more nothing than a hassle, but it's really more than that.
It's illegal.
Kansas law KS41-715 states that the possession of liquor by a minor is a criminal offense, and the penalties can be up to a $200 fine and 30 days in jail.
William Strukel, chief enforcement officer for the Kansas office of Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC), said Wednesday that students should realize that not only is it illegal for those under 21 to purchase liquor, but that it's also illegal to possess it.
Richard Stanwix, Lawrence Police chief, said police had encountered many incidents in which a minor would ask an older person to buy liquor for him. This is also illegal, he said, and the person purchasing the liquor can be arrested as well as the minor.
In Lawrence, most problems occur when college students try to buy liquor, Stanwix said, as opposed to persons under 18 trying to buy 3.2 beer.
Strukel he thought retailers were trying to stay within the law, but it was difficult to detect minors. He said many minors would borrow identification from a friend or alter their own driver's license, both of which are illegal.
"At times, it can be a really big problem," he said.
A person who loans his driver's license to someone in your neighborhood of liquor can have it revoked. Saulk said,
Walker said the county attorney's office cooperated with the ABC in prosecuting any fraudulent activity, including bill payments or failed to ask purchasers for identities. The county attorney rarely initiated any
Poetry series begins Friday
SUA will begin its poetry series Friday afternoon in the Kansas Union.
The first of the weekly series will be a slide presentation of William Blake's paintings and an accompanying lecture by design of the University of Missouri at Rolla.
Bob Green, chairman of the poetry series, said last week that the series this semester would bring in poets and writers who have previously attended KU or who lived here, well known poets who have new her poetry here before and new talent.
The list of activities includes two films. One is of Denise Leverty, author of "O Taste and See" and Charles Olson, author of "Call me Ishmael." The second film is of Robert Creley, author of several books of poetry.
Two former KU students, Eric Claet, author of "Old Buzzard of No Man's Land," and John Morgan, author of "Insections," are going from read from their work.
action, he said, but turned most information over to the ABC.
Liquor stores or taverns who serve minors are difficult to catch, Walker said, but the county attorney's office cooperates in raids or "set-ups" of stores or taverns.
In a "set-up," Walker said, law enforcement officials send a minor into a suspected establishment, and then arrest the proprietor if he sells the minor any liquor.
Furnishing intoxicants to a minor is a possible $1,000 fine and up to 6 months in prison.
A new law will allow motorsist the option of taking their picture on their driver's license.
In this day and age of shortages, another market sales—the KU student directory.
Larry Krupp, director of the division of information, said Wednesday that of the 13,000 directories printed this year, about $7 million in revenue to the Great and Kansas Union bookstores.
Student directories in short supply
J. D. Chrestman, bookstore manager, said all the copies were sold about four weeks after they were placed in the store.
Although some students might wonder why more directories weren't ordered, Knupp said it wasn't easy to get more copies.
He said that payment to the company that contracted to print the directories came solely from advertising receipts. He also said the amount of advertising in the directory and then

Knupp said he had investigated the cost of printing 5,000 extra books this year and had found they would cost $1.50 per book, a price few students were willing to pay.

The quarter that is charged to students purchasing directories is only used to pay the rent and to handling the directories and is added to the rebate for students, Knupp said.
