Powell's attorney readies law suit
WASHINGTON — (UPI)—Attorneys for Adam Clayton Powell today put finishing touches on the lawsuit they will bring, probably on Wednesday, in an effort to restore the Harlem Democrat to the House seat denied him last week.
In case that move fails, Powell is prepared to run in a special New York election scheduled April 11 to fill the vacancy.
THE SUIT to be filed in federal court in the District of Columbia will challenge the constitutionality of the House vote March 1 denying Powell his seat.
the action was not legal since the Negro preacher-politician met the three constitutional qualifications of age, residence and citizenship.
Discussing the double-barreled move on Powell's behalf, attorney William Kunstler said in New York today:
"Of course the D.C. action might result in an injection against the New York election, but that remains to be seen."
Kunstler said the legal team was "working steadily on the case," which could result in a direct and unusual confrontation between the legislative and judicial branches of government.

Thievesransack CU locker room
By WILL HARDESTY
CU basketball players lost about $90 worth of merchandise last night when someone broke into the Buff dressing room during the first half of the basketball game.
Although Lawrence police would not make a statement as to the value of the loss, Coach Sox Walseth listed the following missing items: a watch worth $65, a sweater, a shirt, "and some change."
"That's about all we can think of anyway," he said.
LAWRENCE POLICE detectives said the burglar broke a window of the dressing room and then climbed through. "There's no other way he could have gotten in," one detective said
The break-in occurred during the first half.
The break-in occurred during Walseth speculated more could have been taken, but most of the wallets of the CU players were in a bag kept separate from the rest of the team's belongings.
Pat Frink, Wheat Ridge, Colo., junior, lost a wallet, but "didn't have much money or any credit cards in it."
AFTER THE GAME, the CU team was given a police escort to the train station. Six Lawrence detectives were also along.
"We (the CU team) received a threatening telegram after we beat KU at Boulder," Frink said. "It said if we came to Lawrence there would be trouble. It said we wouldn't get out of town alive. So I guess they sent the cops along as a preventative measure."
There was no trouble once the team left the field house.
Agencies grant KU $300,000
Grants of $181,231 from the National Science Foundation (NSF) and $112,567 from the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) have been received by KU for support of graduate traineeships in the social, physical, and life sciences.
Thirteen new fellowships and nine summer traineeships for graduate teaching assistants will be covered by a $77,450 grant from the NSF. The NASA grant will support six individuals through three years of study toward their Ph.D. degree.
Three NSF awards totaling $103,781 will support the continuation of 18 others at the second and third-year levels, and for a fourth year.
There will be four NSF students on fourth or final-year appointments, seven on third-year continuations, and seven on second year continuations.
The NASA grant will support six new trainees for three years.
Unlike the NSF traineeships, which are filled by University appointment, the NASA awards are made to specific students.
Larcenies continue
Campus security officers continued today to warn office personnel to keep money out of their desk drawers as reports continue to come in of additional break-ins.
Reports yesterday said break-ins occurred in Snow Hall and Dyche Museum. Room 318 B & C in Dyche was entered with a key and the desks were forced open. In Snow Hall the Entomology office was entered and $3.00 was taken from a locked drawer.
The recent larcenes brings the total to nearly 18 the number of break-ins in two weeks.
State Young Republicans
Wichita denied seats
By GARY BURGE
The status of Wichita State University's Collegeate Young Republicans (CYR) apparently will not change following a seating controversy Saturday at a state convention.
The Kansas Federation of CYR Clubs, meeting in an annual convention at Hutchinson, passed a proposal made by KU delegate Doug Balcombe that denied seating of the WSU delegation on a constitutional infraction.
The Wichita delegates walked out of the meeting, along with delegations from Ft. Hays State College, Kansas State Teacher's College at Emporia, Kansas State College at Pittsburgh and Independence Junior College, following the vote from the convention floor.
VOTE FROM THE GREAT WICHITA DELEGATES indicated Saturday, however, that they would remain in the state CYR organization and would not receive additional penalties from the convention's actions.
Balcombe's proposal came when the convention learned the Wichita CYR had registered its delegation after the convention deadline. The state CYR constitution requires all delegates to register and pay their fees at least 10 days before a convention opens.
Wichita delegates signed up on two days, Feb. 22 and Feb. 27. The deadline was Feb. 21.
THE CONVENTION'S credential committee had previously approved the WSU delegation's registrations despite the constitutional infraction. The committee's approval, however, was subject to a general vote from the convention floor and Balcombe's proposal came at that time.
The convention's decision caused Wichita to lose its voting privileges. A WSU delegate, Roger Turner, was an intended candidate for presidency of the CYR Federation. The delegations of the other four schools who walked out also lost voting rights.
