Kansas House Acts on Bills Concerning Alcoholic Drinks
TOPEKA — (UPI) The Kansas House of Representatives took action yesterday on three measures concerning alcoholic beverages.
The House Committee on Municipalities killed a bill which would have permitted local option on the sale of 3.2 beer.
The House Committee of the Whole voted 49-20 to pass a watered-down version of Gov. John Anderson's mandatory jail sentence bill for first offenses of drunken driving.
The House Judiciary Committee opened hearings today on a bill already approved by the Senate, to legalize abortions in the state.
THE STATE AFFAIRS Committee voted to report adversely a bill which would have allowed Kansans to vote again on state-wide prohibition.
THE BILL would allow legal abortions if the pregnancy endangered the physical or mental health of the mother, or if there was evidence the child would be deformed. Abortions also would be allowed for pregnancy by rape or incest.
Proponents of the legislation, including the state board of health and members of the medical profession were heard today.
Opposition, based on moral and religious grounds, will be heard tomorrow.
Action will probably start tomorrow on the Wichita University bill. The bill, as amended by the House Ways and Means Committee would provide that WU come into the state system as an associate of the University of Kansas, but would retain the status of university.
HELP Campaign Begins with Dinner
The Higher Education Loan Program (HELP) campaign will officially begin this year at a HELP dinner at 6:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Ballroom of the Kansas Union.
HELP-KU was established in 1961 by business leaders in Lawrence to supply student loans for Douglas County and Kansas residents wishing to attend KU. Skipper Williams, 641 Louisiana, is this year's drive chairman.
Students have borrowed over $50,000 in loans ranging from $40 to $400 since the start of the program.
Working in conjunction with the KU endowment association, HELP has made possible for over 2,500 students to attend KU.
More than $33,000 has already been collected in the present drive.
