Seurer is convicted of battery, fined; Bell fined after failure to go to court
Court cases involving two KU football
were concluded during semester
late.
Frank Seurer, KU quarterback, was fined $10 Dec. 10 in Lawrence Municipal Court, following his conviction on a charge of misdemeanor battery.
SEURER, Huntington Beach, Calif., junior, was convicted of battery for an incident that occurred at Off-the-Wall Hall 737 New Hampshire St., in which he hit Steve Robinson, Wichita senior; the bite and the lip on the side of the head.

During the trial Seurer said he had
But Paul Wilson, a former KU law professor who presided at the trial because Judge George Catt had disqualified himself, ruled that Seurer's use of force had gone too far and was unreasonable.
Another KU football player, running back Kenwin Bell, was ordered Dec. 20 to pay $84, the regular fee for prosecution of a misdemeanor, by Mike Elwell, Douglas County District Court judge.
which Bell, 20, had plumed guilty in November to a charge of consumption in a robbery.
THE ORDER concluded a case in
On Dec. 17, Elwell had issued a bench warrant for Bell's arrest because Bell, for the second time, failed to appear for sentencing.
Bell said he thought that, because he had completed his sentence of 40 hours of community service work, he was not obliged to appear for sentencing.
Elwell said that Bell did his community service work with an excellent rating and he passed no further sentence.

Soviets and Americans lose
Neither Soviets nor Americans stand to gain from the Reagan administration's cutbacks in scientific exchange programs between the two nations, a KU professor said yesterday in the first University Forum of the semester.
Prof dislikes science program cuts
Robert Hoffmann, KU professor of systematics and ecology and curator of mammals at the Museum of Natural History, said in his talk, "Science in the Soviet Union," that both countries lost when such exchanges were restricted.
Hoffmann said the issue was not that one nation had more scientific knowledge than the other; rather, the idea of ideas was what concerned scientists.
All but two scientific exchange agreements have been cut by the Reagan administration, ostensibly to curtail the drain of American tech-savvy employers from high-money, Hoffmann said. Exchange programs between U.S. and Soviet
academies of scientists remain intact.
The greatest difference between Soviet and American approaches to scientific research rests in the highly centralized Soviet system, he said.
In theory, such centralization is more efficient, but in practice, Hoffmann said, the Soviet system's vastness renders it inefficient.
Hoffmann said he had spent more than 18 months since 1963 working with him on the project.
