Stephen subnoenas reporter
TOPEKA—Attorney General Robert Stephan has subpoenaed a United Press International reporter, ordering her to appear Friday for a closed-door inquisition into a UPI report that state senators consumed liquor in the Kansas Statehouse on the last night of the 1979 session.
Elizabeth A. Leech, 24, said in a story for UPI that she had observed State Sen. Neil Arasmith, R-Phillipsburg, making cocktails and serving another senator in the office of Senate President Ross Doyen, apparently without Doven's knowledge.
Stephan's investigator, Bruce Melior, delivered the subpoena to Leech Monday at UPI's Kansas city area bureau in Mission. It ordered her to appear at Stephan's office for questioning by an assistant attorney general in charge of Stehan's criminal division.
State law prohibits consumption of liquor on property owned by the state. Such a violation is a minderemонn, punishable by a fine between $50 and $200.

"Some of the reason for the change is that nozzles were being held on sticks and rocks and you name it," Kansas Fire Marshal Floyd Dibborn said. "Gas was running out from the tanks onto the grounds and was making it more dangerous than if they were held open and would automatically shut off."
Diberm said the original rule banning the trigger locks was a result of concern that motorists would forget the nozzle was stuck in the car and would drive too quickly.
State Amtrak line to continue
WASHINGTON - A House subcommittee recommended yesterday that Amtrak and a Southwest Limited, the only passenger train service through Kansas, be moved to a new location.
The president of Amtrak said it would not be until May 1890 that Amtrak would be able to reroute the train west from Topeka to Denver, cutting out a route between New York and Chicago.
The subcommittee's recommendations came only days after Alan Boyd, president of Amtrak, told the subcommittee that the rerouting plan for the Southwest Limited probably would not achieve the purpose of the overall proposal.
Sen. Nancy Kassabum, R-Kan, said Monday that after she had spoken with Antriktra officials, she was more convinced that the Southwest Limited should
Bush joins presidential hopefuls
Bush said that one way to fight inflation would be to cut government spending and that Americans must realize that inflation could not be stopped unless it was controlled.

MILWAUKEE (AP)—Amid controversy over the government's effort to suppress a magazine article on the hydrogen bomb, the Milwaukee Sentinel has published an article on the bomb based on information available in public libraries.
A spokesman for the Justice Department said he could not comment on the article in yesterday's Sentinel, headlined, "H-Bomb Material Readily Accessible." The story was the second of two articles on the hydrogen bomb.

Because the magazine article had not been printed, it was impossible to tell immediately whether the Sentinel印制 any of the information that the government objected to on grounds of national security.
But a Harvard nuclear engineer who had examined the magazine article and classified bomb documents while acting as consultant on the case to the State Department, said he did not think the Sentinel article made the government's case moot.
