Legislators have scheduled a three-day wrapping session to begin April 23. Kansas House leaders said Friday that they planned to vote on a death penalty bill drawn up by a House-Senate conference committee. The Kansas Senate passed the bill Thursday, breaking a six-month capital punishment votes in the upper chamber. Legislature House Majority Leader Robert Frey, R-N.J., said the probability would pass the bill, although some representatives were disappointed that the conference committee bill was broader than the one passed last year. THE HOUSE legislation called for death by injection only for first-degree murder. penalty for both first-degree murder and for felony murder. If the bill passes the House as expected, it faces an uncertain fate in the hands of Gov. John Carlin, who has said he would not be a roadblock to a constitutional death penalty bill, even though he personally opposes capital punishment. Carlin objected to the inclusion of the felony murder clause in the present bill at his news conference Friday. The governor's press secretary, Bill Hoc, has said Carlin would wait until the House acts before deciding whether to veto the bill. As for the KU budget, there is a chance that the Senate Ways and Means Committee will approve the budget. sity's allocation to more than what the House has already allocated. THE SENATE committee already has increased the Board of Regents schools' faculty pay raise from 6 to 7 percent, and the University of Kansas Medical Center's budget. In other matters: - A House-Senate conference committee will work out the differences between the bills passed by both houses that would allow private clubs to sell liquor by the drink to members.

University Endowment Association. Mike Thomas, director of KU police, said, "Some of the protests asked that we erase the tape. Since there were no problems at the rally, we didn't object." Ron Kuby, Lawrence senior and coordinator of the rally, said, "I was told by Chief Hill that the tapes were taken in the rain. But there was no violence at the rally." Mike Hile, KU chief of police, said Kuby and several other students had requested the erasure of the tape, which occurred from the second floor of Strong Hall. Thomas said the police had videdetact some campus events not only to use as evidence, but also to use in training KU police. JM DENNEY, director of police at the University of Kansas Medical Center, said, "There was nothing of value as evidence on this tape. It would have been erased anyway. And not just because someone wanted it erased." Thomas said his department would not erase videotapes in the future just because students wanted the tapes erased. "We would definitely keep the tape if there were any problems or any laws broken," he said. Kuby asked Hill why student groups had not been warned that police videotaped events. Hill said, "We've taped so little in the past that we have never informed groups in advance." He said Wednesday's protest against the Egyptian-Iraeli peace treaty was the first protest videotaped by KU police. HILL SAID athletic events at the University had been routinely filmed since last fall. However, police did not videotape Wednesday's arrest of Steven Schwartz, Barrington, R.I., freshman. The district attorney's office has received allegations that police used excessive force in Schwartz's arrest. Video view Hill said, "No shots if Schwartz' arrest were taped. The photographer wasn't in position to get shots of his arrest." From a second floor window in Strong Hall, KU police videotaped Friday's rally protesting South African investments by the Kansas University Endowment Association. According to police, the tape was made to use as evidence in case of violence at the rally. Photo by BRUCE BENEDICT Thomas said the Kansas Bureau of Investigation would review the arrest.
