House rejects Reagan's bid for contra aid
United Press International
WASHINGTON — The House of Representatives yesterday rejected President Reagan's appeal for $100 million for the Nicaraguan bombing the Sandinista government, slapping aside his offer to hold back some military aid during a new bid for peace talks.
In a statement read by presidential spokesman Larry Speakes, Reagan said the 222-210 defeat must be reversed.

He vowed to shift his campaign today to the Senate in a bid to salvage the request, which called for $70 million in military assistance and $30 million in non-lethal aid.

Cover Story

Kansan Magazine writer
The house at 935 Tennessee St. has no porch, little paint on its weather-worn boards and a lot of broken planks, pieces of cement and bricks in the yard.
On the inside, the house has ladders in the walkways and boxes and supplies fill various rooms. Pigeon droppings are scattered on an upper floor.
But when Sherrill and Don Bushell look at the house they see an elegant 19th-century home, situated in a pastoral part of old Lawrence.
The house, they said, was built by a local carpenter, Charles S. Duncan, and was named after him.
The house, which the Bushells bought Oct. 15, was built around 1870 and was one of the first in the area. The couple enthusiastically talk about the history of the temporarily torn apart house and their plans for returning it to its original condition.
But a lot of work is what the Bushells and their carpenter, Jay Patterson, are doing. Sherri Bushell spends most of her day picking up supplies and overseeing a lot of the details with utility companies, electricians and carpenters.
That's because when Bushell, professor of human development, and his wife picture the house, they see something much different than an average passerby.
Sherrill Bushell said she had been fascinated by the house for years. When the previous owner put it up for sale, Bushell said, they jumped at the opportunity to renovate it.
The house, according to the Bushels, was used for storage and had only one resident for the past few years. They knew that the house would require a lot of work.
The house has become such a time-consuming project, she said, that she plans to resign from her job as the managing editor of the Journal of Applied
"When she was ready to sell, I was there." she said.
Among the items the Bushells have found in the walls they have pulled down in the house are an 1870 yearbook from Vassar College and a prescription bottle from 1855.

She said she had successfully made the transition from editor to her self-proclaimed title of "general contractor."

"I've rearranged my whole life to do this," she said. Don Bushell works at the house only when he gets time between teaching classes and other duties.
On the days he does work on the house, he seems to fit the role of remodeler well. He works with tool belt strapped to his soiled blue jeans and a baseball cap covering his hair.
Part of the Bushells' sacrifice for the house means having to use a bathroom that has a toilet with no seat cover and only a candle to light the room.
The Bushells plan to divide the house into two separate living units. The back, which will have the address of 933 Tennessee St., already has a new staircase. Ceiling fans and new windows are on the way.
Although the house will look old-fashioned on the outside, they have provided for all the conveniences of modern living, including an area for a washer and dryer and cable television hook-ups.
They have replaced some of the original wooden floor with wood they salvaged from another old house that was being torn down.
Sherrill Bushell said they spent a lot of time showing the house to people who were curious about the construction and wanted to look around.
In the entryway of the house,
But the Bushells have more to worry about than most when it comes to remodeling the house. They are trying to get the house added to the National Register of Historical Places. To do that, they must try to preserve as much of the original structure as possible, replacing only the boards and framework that can't be repaired.
She walks through the home where only white walls and uncarpeted floors are now and talks about the kinds of carpet and colors of paint that will cover the house by the end of spring.
To be accepted to the National Register, the only structural changes the Bushells can make are those that can be reversed in the future.
Sherrill Bushell proudly shows off the small spiral staircase which leads to the top of a pagoda-like tower.
Caviness made a drawing of how he thought the outside of the house looked in the late 1800s and also made a floor plan for the inside of the house.
Many of the plans the Bushels have for renovating the house came from drawings made by Paul Caviness, who received a master's degree in architecture from the University of Kansas in December.
She said the two units probably would be available for occupancy sometime in May and would be in a price range students could afford.
Caviness said he was pleased that the Bushells were restoring the house to its original condition.
"I think it's wonderful," she said of the Bushells' work.
A former occupant of the house shares Caviness' opinion.
Margaret Tucker, who lived with her parents and eight brothers and sisters in the house from 1908 to 1931, said she had visited the house a few times since the Bushells bought it.
Don Bushell said he didn't know exactly what he had learned from working on the house.
When the house is finished in May, the Bushells said, they'll be ready for a long summer vacation in the Pacific Northwest.
"I'm not sure we'll know that until we're done with it," he said.

Sherilill Bushnell says that although she enjoys the work involved in renovating a house, she is looking forward to seeing the project winding down in May.
