Eligibility...

Starr said eligibility requirements set a $1,500 maximum level for a single person. This allowance allows for deductions, exclusions or work-related medical or workinng expenses, she said.
Depending on the particular circumstances, the recipient will pay from nothing to $38 for $48 of food stamps, Starr said.
To determine eligibility of students, Starr said, salaries, loans, grants, scholarships and parental aid are considered. Costs of tuition and other school expenses are
"Most students who have this high of a resource level aren't interested in the hassle of applying for food stamps," Starr said.
The applicant must be taking more than
nix credit hours or he must register for work
or have a job with an employer.
Derrick said there was no residency requirement in applications for the stamps.
Jerry Rogers, director of financial aid at the University of Kansas, said the office of Student Financial Aid didn't come into direct contact with the welfare office. The office only for stamps come to the office only for a statement of their financial aid, he said.
Rogers said a student's financial award wasn't readjusted if a student received stamps if the aid from this office was not enough. He said he need more food stamp assistance he said.
Rogers said he didn't object to students receiving stamps if they really needed
"What I don't like to see is people playing a game with the system," he said.
The bill, the Food Stamp Reform Act, would make college students ineligible for food stamps.
Legislation now before Congress would make the stamps harder to obtain. Marsha Alderson, legislative assistant to Larry Winn, R-Kan, said Friday that Winn and 58 other representatives had cosponsored a food stamp bill.
In a press release, Winn said, "The Food Stamp Reform Act would close many of the existing tophoiles since the principle would contribute to those who need assistance most."

Malpractice
From Page One
"My personal opinion is that several of them are unconstitutional." Dunn said.
"They're trying to create class legislation, designating a special class of people who get special treatment under law. You can't be on the plane. You can't say, 'Doctors cannot be sued.'"
Dunn said he was in favor of much tougher policing of insurance companies, although he questioned whether tougher policing was needed in Kansas.
"Kansans as a group are not at litigious,
as apt to sue to as, say, people in the East.
Back there, a leaf falls and everyone runs
out and sues a tree." he said.
. .
However, Dunn said he thought the maplings would grow and manipulate itself Kansas.
Mlapractice suits are extremely expensive, Dunn said, because expert witnesses must testify and lawyers usually face the medical problems being considered.
By the time you try a case it will probably cost each party $20,000," he said. Baseless malpractice suits never go to trial, he said.
"The majority of malfunction suits are won by doctors," he said. "Generally speaking, people believe in doctors and turies believe in doctors."
Dunn said the best way to cut down malpractice suits was to cut down medical injuries, which meant a hospital should cut down frequently injurious practices.
He said an improvement of the relationship between doctor and patient was important. Frequently, patients who sue are ones who are shocked because their doctors haven't given them a clear picture of their conditions, he said.
"The majority of physicians in the United States will not be used," he said, "because they are usually on good terms with their patients. However, people are much more likely than they once were and believe they have more legal power than they once did."
Because the Med Center is the largest research medical center in Kansas and is connected to a state school, it is a good target for malpractice suits, he said.
