The end of World War II had an extreme impact on KU enrollment. There were just under 4,000 students enrolled in 1945. The numbers ballooned to just over 9,000 in 1946. Can you imagine KU doubling its enrollment next year?

Lyndon county affirms Republican's House win
LYNDON, Kan.— Officials in one northeast Kansas county certified its results Monday in a close state House race, expanding the Republican challenger's lead over a Democratic incumbent amid a legal battle over another county's vote counting.
The Osage County Commission reviewed dozens of provisional ballots and counted 53 with votes for either candidate in the 54th House District, which includes parts of three counties.
Afterward, Democratic Rep. Ann Mah of Topeka trailed Republican challenger Ken Corbet, also of Topeka, by 44 votes out of nearly 10,700 cast. The margin previously had been 27 votes, so that Corbat saw a net gain of 17 votes.
Mah filed a successful lawsuit Friday in neighboring Shawnee County to force it to release the names of voters who cast provisional ballots.
She and other Democrats are trying to contact them and help them correct potential problems so that their ballots will be counted. She was hoping to pick up enough votes to defeat Corbet, having carried the Shawnee County portion of the district in unofficial results.
"We were hoping for a better out- come," Mah said as she left Osage
He contends that voters' privacy is at stake, but Mah and other Democrats argue that he's trying to block her last, slim chance for overcoming Corbet's lead because she's a vocal opponent of a law Kobach championed to require voters to show photo identification at the polls. Kobach also backed Corbet.
Secretary of State Kris Kobach objected to releasing the names and filed his own lawsuit in federal court to block the candidates from using them.
County Courthouse in Lyndon,
about 30 miles south of Topeka.
Coyot carried the smaller portions of the district in neighboring Douglas and Osage counties and hoped to contact voters casting provisional ballots to add to his totals, including in Osage County. More than 200 provisional ballots were cast in the district among the three counties, with more than 100 in Shawnee County and almost 90 in Osage County.
The new tally in the race gives Corbet 5,365 votes after he picked up 35 in Osage County. Mah has 5,321 votes, having gained 18.

are eligible to vote at particular polling places, for reasons including the lack of a proper photo ID, a recent move or, for some women, a name change upon getting married. Each ballot is placed in an envelope and set aside for further review. Counties have until Thursday to certify their results, and Douglas and Shawnee county officials plan to wait until then.
CALEB CROOK
Attorney
Attorneys representing Corbet and the Republican Party argued that it wouldn't be fair for voters in Osage County to be denied extra time to correct potential problems with their ballots.

"They're not going to have the impetus of candidates contacting them to encourage them," said Caleb Crook, an attorney representing the Republicans.
