School board now partisan
TOPEKA — (UPI) — Two Republican Senator changed their votes in a dramatic 21-16 roll-call Thursday night in which the Kansas Senate bowed to the House of Representatives and voted to make election of the new school board partisan.
The vote was 18-18 when Sens, Marvin Cox, R-Kingman, and Tony Casado, R-Wichita, changed their minds, ending a 40-day standoff between the two houses on the partisanship issue.
The vote was on a move to accept the third and last conference committee decision on a bill implementing the 1866 constitutional amendment replacing the elected state school superintendent with an elected 10-member
board. The first two committees failed to agree, but the final committee took the house position.
Tempers flared on the Senate floor and debate was bitter, with Republicans divided on whether to accept the report*. But they were reminded by President pro tem Glee Smith, R-Larned, that the vote was critical because if they refused the report, there would be no school board elections in November.
Sen. Joseph Harder, R-Moundridge, chairman of the Senate Education Committee, said, "We broke the faith with the people of Kansas because they were guaranteed that the Department of Public Instruction would be removed from politics."
Sen. Keith Sebelius, R-Norton, in a rare flash of temper on the floor, shouted at Sen. Richard Liebert, R-Coffeyville, over a side issue. Liebert asked the chairman to admonish Sebelius to watch his temper, and the chairman refused to recognize the Republican Senator for more comments.
His voice raising, Sebelius accused Gov. Robert*. Docking of saying he was for a partisan school board and implying he would veto a non-partisan bill.
Liebert said this was not true and the governor would "sign whatever bill is placed on his desk on this matter."
Shouting on the floor, Sebelius said, "I've lived under the threat
Reagan says he won't run; wants to stay in California
SACRAMENTO, Calif. — (UPI)—Gov. Ronald Reagan expressed doubt today any prospective outpouring of public sentiment could place him on the Republican presidential ticket in November.
He said in a private interview that he found it difficult to believe "there are people in the number" needed to convince him to make a bid for the presidency.
"I recognize the great honor paid me when people say I am a possible candidate for president of the United States," he said. "But I have to say go away."
"I have one career, one job.
and that is to now carry out the things I talked about for the better part of a year before I was elected—the problems of California and how to set about and try to solve them," he said.
Reagan is running as a favorite son in California's June 4 presidential preference primary.
As a result, he won't pull his name off open primaries in Wisconsin, where it will be second on the ballot, Nebraska or Oregon. He says, he can't be a candidate in California and not in primaries where he has to file a disclaimer to take his name off the ballot.
Reagan, who has said he would turn down the GOP vice presidential nomination, was asked why he feels the governorship of California is more important to him than the vice presidency.
He answered that he had talked for a long time about political ideas—"more participation by people, more autonomy, less all-powerful government and instituting modern business practices, economies and efficiencies in government."
He said, "There's nothing of that kind of policy-making in the vice president's job. . ."
Then, heading home in the evenings, he would mount his brakeless bike and shoot down the 350-yard hill with his coattails flapping behind him.
But it was Snow's colorful cycling that made him a personality on campus. Living below the steep 14th St. hill, he gained student admiration by puffing his way to the top of Mount Oread in the mornings.

He said of Liebert, "I don't think he knows what the governor wants. He only knows what Paul Pendergast wants!"
Francis Huntington Snow, was his name. As a member of the first faculty, and later as Chancellor from 1890 to 1501, he was one of the commanding figures of KU's first 35 years. Today the hall named in his honor and his collection of 40,000 insects are part of KU's heritage.
