Appellate court rules on security deposits
The Associated Press
TOPEKA — If landlords want to keep any portion of a renter's security deposit, they should spell out the reasons for doing so in writing within 30 days after a tenant moves, the Kansas Court of Appeals ruled yesterday.
In an eight-page ruling, the appeals court said the Kansas Landlord and Tenant Act clearly requires landlords to provide written notification to renters of reasons for withholding security deposits.
The notification requirement was the key issue in a case that pitted William G. Haynes, a Topea attorney and landlord, against Rhoda Vogel a retired teacher who rented an apartment from Haynes on Jan. 6, 1983.
The appeals court upheld a Shawnee County District Court ruling that Vogel was entil-
ed to a complete refund of the $110 security deposit.
According to the appeals court ruling, a lease Vogel signed with Haynes was month-to-month, but included a provision that said she would rent the apartment for one year
On June 26, 1983, Vogel notified Haynes that she would move out of the apartment by the end of July, and she asked for $110 security deposit, the ruling said.
"Haynes refused the request without any written notice of damages he sustained by reason of Vogel's failure to comply with the one-year provision in the rental agreement," the ruling said.
However, Vogel took the matter to small claims court and when Haynes failed to appear, she won a judgment against him.
TOPEKA — Beginning what promises to be a series of attacks on GOP governor candidate Mike Hayden, the co-chairman of Democrat Tom Docking's gubernatorial campaign yesterday attempted to link Hayden to investments in South Africa.
Norbert Dreiling, a Hays lawyer and a former campaign manager for Docking's father, former Gov. Robert Docking, contends that Hayden, who is an insurance agent with E.C. Mellick Agency of Atwood, is affiliated with four insurance companies. Dreiling said state insurance commissioner's records indicated that the four companies own $2.6 million in stock in companies that do business in South Africa.
In a news conference, Dreiling demanded that Hayden, Kansas Speaker of the

House, admit he had collected from Kansans insurance premium dollars that were used to invest in those stocks. In addition, he called on Hayden to demand that the insurance companies divest and that Hayden resign his insurance license in protest.
Kelley Hayden, Hayden's brother and press secretary, criticized Dreiling for attempting to drag the issue on for another round when state issues were more important.
Kelley Hayden said his brother had not worked as an insurance agent for nearly a year. He said Hayden was an employee of E.C. Mellick and did not set the policies. He added that Hayden's only insurance company affiliation was with Farmers Alliance Mutual. Dreiling's list indicates that Farmers Alliance Mutual owns 2,000 shares of Xerox stock valued at $108,500.
Drelling said he mentioned the insurance company investments because Hayden called on Docking to divest himself of International Business Machines stock and banking investments with South African links. Drelling said Docking is not going to be cailed by Hayden into doing anything with the stock.
The Docking spokesman said he personally did not think the South Africa matter was important to the Kansas campaign. He said he thought Hayden had been kind of silly to oppose grain sales to that country in the first place. Hayden's initial remark opposing grain sales in protest of apartheid sparked the South Africa debate.
Dreiling also challenged Hayden to produce a list of the 60 bills Hayden claims to have sponsored that have become law.
Jucos report deficit in state aid
The Associated Press
TOPEKA - A state Department of Education official told a legislative panel yesterday that enrollment increases at Kansas' 19 community colleges has resulted in a $2.1 million shortfall in state aid money for the schools, which the Legislature will be asked to make up in January.
Dale Dennis, assistant commissioner of education for finance, told the Legislative Budget Committee the shortfall stemmed from a decision during the 1986 session to compute community college aid based on last year's enrollment figures.
Dennis said lawmakers decided to
review increases or decreases in community college enrollments during the 1987 session.
Based on a telephone survey of all the community colleges, Dennis said the statewide community college enrollment has increased by approximately 7.59 percent.
As a result of the enrollment increases, Dennis said the Legislature probably would be asked to grant a $1.7 million supplemental appropriation to cover increased state aid.
