Rolena Hyde, the 5-month-old daughter of a local Indian couple charged in October with child abuse, may be coming home this month, according to her father and court
Indian child expected home soon
Her parents, Tony and Tweedy Hyde,
were charged with child abuse in October,
and since have seen their daughter only on a
limited visitation basis.
Mike Elwell, the juvenile court judge who originally ordered that the child be taken from her parents, said yesterday that he expected Roleta to be returned to the Hydes by mid-February.She is now in a foster home.
Hye said he thought a demonstration and meeting led by Russell Means, American Indian Movement leader, in December had helped speed plans for the return of Rolena.
"We read in the papers before the demonstration that Judge Elwill said the demonstration would prove nothing," Hyde said. "But I think it swamped him over to our men when people took calling him and asking him to let us have her home for Christmas."
A court date will be set next Monday to appeal Judge Elwell's decision but Elwell said that wouldn't affect plans for returning the baby to the Hydes.
The Hydes were allowed to keep the baby for a two-day Christmas visit.
Elwell said his decision would stand until it was overturned by a higher court. He also said the Hydes would be supervised by a lawyer, and the SIRS (SIG) of Bolinda was returned to them.
Hyde said SRS representatives brought Rolpa home twice a week for visits.
Booklet twists housing facts
An error in a housing booklet almost delta in the next semester's residence but contract.
fred McEhlenie, acting dean of men, said yesterday that the prices of single and double rooms were transposed in one section of the booklet, which describes the University of Kansas hall system. And some booklets also were missing pages.
The dean of men's and dean of women's offices, with the housing office, worked Friday and Saturday hand-correcting his bulletins to meet a Jan. 31 mulling deadline.
McEhlenie said the cause of the errors hadn't been determined.
The deadline for the return of residence ball contracts is "as soon as possible," be flexible, and keep your team ready to want a specific coormate or room should return their contracts before Fri. 14. Those returning contracts between Feb. 15 and March 14 will be handled on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Single rooms will be offered until May 31, or until the 30 per cent limit of single rooms in residence halls has been reached, McElhennie said.

Loveland reported the injury to SRS, which took Rolena out of Lawrence Memorial Hospital Oct. 6 and placed her in a foster home.
X rays showed that Roberta had a apoplasty fracture of the log and facial bruises. There were no signs of fractures in her pelvis.
The episode began when the Hydees took Roleta to Charles Loveland, a Lawrence pediatrician. According to Hyde, she fell off a bad and caught her leg in the bed frame.
Elwell ruled that the baby couldn't be returned to her parents until the Hydes received counseling and attended parental instruction classes. At that time he also said
he might wait as long as six months to rule
himself, and he would be permanently
returned to her parental
Means, after hearing the Hydes' story, organized a protest at the county courthouse in which he accused "white-dominated" courts of engaging in a conspiracy to remove Indian babies from their homes.
Before the demonstration, Means, Elwalt and representatives of the Hydes had a 80-player game.
It was after that meeting that Elliwell reconsidered a Christmas visit and an annual trip to London.
