Judge doubles Bell's penalty
By CAROL LICHTI Staff Reporter
A Douglas County District Court judge yesterday ordered KU running back Kerwin Bail to complete 40 hours of community service work before Dec. 17 or be sentenced for drinking alcohol as a minor.
Bell, Huntington Beach, Calif.
junior, pleaded guilty yesterday to drinking under age at a private club.
702 New Hampshire St, on March 11.
The maximum sentence for consuming alcohol as a minor, a misdemeanor or a felon is three years.
Judge Mike Elwell said he would delay sentencing, but if the 40 hours of community service work were not completed by Dec. 17, Bell would have to accept the consequences of his actions.
BELL, 20, SIGNED a diversion agreement April 13 to do 20 hours of community service work in exchange for dropping the drinking as a minor
charge. The court granted Bell six months to complete the work at the Lawrence Arts Center.
Division agreements allow offenders to do community service work as payment for offenses. The charges against defendants who sign division agreement contracts are completed. The offense then does not appear on the person's record.
According to court records, Bell did not complete any hours of work during the six-month period. Ann Evans of the Lawrence Arts Center wrote on the form submitted to Bell's file, "I have never seen him."
tell was scheduled to enter his plea at 11 a.m. yesterday, but arrived at the courtroom before left the bench. Elkow was called back into the courtroom to hear the plea.
"YOU HAVE WASTED the court's time and everybody else's time by signing the diversion agreement and not following with it." Elwell
He asked Bell why he signed a
diversion agreement for the offense when he never intended to complete the work. When no explanation was given, he was instructed not to understand the agreement when he signed it.
Bell said that he understood the agreement, but that he was unable to receive it.
Bell's lawyer, Halley Kampschroeder, told Elwell it was the first time Bell had had a problem with the court. He said that Bell should have to take care of that problem but Bell did not aggravate the circumstances.
NO TIME EXTENSIONS would be granted to complete the work, Elwell told Bell.
The type of work Bell might have done at the arts center would have involved a variety of things such as office work, running errands, moving furniture and maintenance work, Ann Evans said.
Bell was scheduled for trial yesterday afternoon, but because he entered a guilty plea the trial was not necessary.
RAs won't have access to grades of residents
Resident assistants will not be able to see the grades of students on their floors next semester, but they will know which students are on academic probation, the head of the residential programs said yesterday.
"The focus of our endeavor is to assist students to reach their academic and personal goals, which I think is consistent with the rest of our efforts," said Fred McEhlenie, the director of ORP.
AT THE BEGINNING of the spring semester, the resident assistants and residence hall directors will meet to discuss the confidentiality of the information and applicable hall and campus resources for students with faltering grade point averages, McElhene said.
Then, within two weeks after
spring classes start, the RHDs will tell RAS which students are on academic probation. The RAS should approach those students to offer information about available resources. McElhene said.
"We want to make sure we haven't missed any opportunity to give out information students might need," McEhlene said. "Our motive is not to use probation as some kind of club, but rather as a help."
CARYL SMITH, dean of student life, said the emphasis of the program would be on freshmen and sophomores, because they often lacked adequate academic support and academic success records.
McEhlenie said that although some students might be offended by the RA's offers of assistance, it was a risk that had to be taken any time one person reached out to help another.
Crew suggests how to make shuttle more like home
By United Press International
HOUSTON—Crewmen from the space shuttle Columbia yesterday prepared reports on their flight, wrote in the shuttle a better home for a crew of four.
Meanwhile, experts from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration began testing two faulty spacecraft in the midst of the construction of the shuttle's planned spacewalk.
The space agency yesterday also unveiled a large communications satellite that will be launched in January or then in February. Russia officials said the satellite would revolutionize the way mission control kept tabs on spaceships.
The newspaper Soviet Russia, however, again charged yesterday that the United States planned to use the space of a nuclearization of space in preparation for war.
DESPITE U.S. attempts to emphasize the commercial aspects of the shuttle, the newspaper said, "It is no secret that the entire shuttle space program has, above all, military importance."
Astronauts Vance Brand, Robert Overmeyer, Joseph Allen and William Lenoir were back in Houston yesterday for observations of the five-day mission.
Among the things Overmier not were a need for better food trays. He also suggested that NASA include curtains in the shuttle to add a little
INVESTIGATORS SAID the shuttle, still at Edwards Air Force Base, Calif., where it landed Tuesday was in good condition. The number of more than 10 million miles in orbit,
Jim Harrington, ground operations chief, said the only obvious damage was a flat tire and the loss of four of the tanks. The insulating tiles covering Columbia's body
He said the inbound wheel on the left-hand landing gear apparently locked when the astronauts put on the brakes, shredding one side of the tire and causing it to go flat. One goal of Columbia's flight was to brake as hard as possible after landing.
Harley Stutesman, a member of the team investigating the space suits, said the $2 million suits would be flown from California to Houston tomorrow.
EACH SUIT WILL travel in its own plane, he said, because they are so precious that no chance can be taken where might be lost in a single plane crash.
On the mission, a vital fan motor in Allen's backpack did not run, and a regulator valve in Lenoir's backpack let oxygen pressure drop below NASA's standards. Neither problem had appeared during extensive ground tests, and Stutesman said it would be difficult to tell whether mechanical failure or some fluke of operating in zero-gravity was at fault.
and gold communications satellite received finishing touches. It will serve as both an orbiting tracking station and its mini-purpose radio switchboard in space.

"IT IS THE most powerful, most sophisticated and largest communications satellite built to date," said Neville Barter of TRW Inc., the company that built the satellite in Redondo Beach, Calif.
The satellite, along with a twin to be launched in July, will replace most of the ground tracking stations now used to communicate with space shuttles and unmanned satellites. Once both of the new satellites are working, astronauts will be in contact with mission control for 85 percent of each mission.

The university would be able to buy annual subscriptions to 1,000 periodicals and 2,000 books with the additional $100,000. Howard said.
"That would be a major improvement." he said.
If the library fund for acquisitions is not increased and the additional money is not granted, the library may request that these subscriptions and book buys, he said.

KU library needs funds, dean says
In 1880 the library had to drop 800
periodical subscriptions, he said, and
they were lost.
Clinton Howard, assistant dean for the libraries, said the libraries needed the money to keep pace with the rising costs of books and periodicals.
The Kansas Board of Regents had requested the money in its 1984 budget
A KU official says the KU library system surely needs $100,000 for additional periodicals and books. That $100,000 was not included in the 1984 fiscal budget recommendation of the Kansas Division of Budget.
HE SAID THE library's acquisition budget had not expanded enough in recent years to match the inflation rate of acquisition items.
