Pared-down abortion bill awaits vote
Kansan staff writer
By Rod Griffin
TOPEKA — Debate on a transportation-ball-turned-abortion legislation raged into the night yesterday in the House before Gov. Rick Santorum watered-down version of the bill. A final vote is scheduled for today.
Med Center bill
Cries of legislative rules violations erupted in the House yesterday when the bill came to the floor.
The House Transportation Committee substituted a parental notification bill for a Senate bill that would have dealt with the use of vehicle registration fees by county treasurers. The abortion bill, introduced by State Rep. Artie Lucas, R-Highland, had been killed by the Federal and State Affairs Committee last week
Lucas, vice chairman of the Transportation Committee, and committee chairman State Rep Rex Crowell, R-Longton, used the committee to get the abortion bill to the floor. Twelve co-sponsors of the abortion legislation hold seats on the committee.
Lucas said the committee process was flawed because there was

KU's spring break will be Irish green
People can celebrate Saint Patrick's Day at bars, parades in Westport, Lawrence
The Kansas City St. Patrick's Day Parade will be Saturday.

Green beer. Parades with bagpipes.
More beer.
It must be St. Patrick's Day.
The March 17 holiday falls on the last Saturday of spring break this year, and bar owners and parade organizers alike are expecting big crowds than usual.
Mark Webber, manager of Kelly's Westport Inn, 500 Westport Rd., in Kansas City, Mo. said Patrick's Day was the bar's busiest day of the year. The streets of Westport are blocked off to automobile traffic on the holiday.
"It's like a Friday night, all day long."
Webber said. "We don't have any special promotions or advertising because it's always packed anyway."
Webber said Kelly's would charge a $1 cover that would be donated to Welcome House in Kansas City, Mo., a half-way house for alcoholics.
Chris Cosgrove, Shawnee Mission sophomore, said he would head straight for Wesport on St. Patrick's Dav.
"It's always a ring-dingin' time down in old Westport," said Cosgrove, who drank green beer last year at the Lone Star, 4117 Mill St., in Kansas City, Mo.

President, Senate OK air bill
Leaders hope move will quell opponents
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Senate leaders and President Bush compromised yesterday on future air pollution controls for automobiles, factories and electric power plants, enhancing chances that a clean air bill will pass this year.
The agreement, after more than three weeks of closed-door negotiations, was viewed as a middle ground likely to attract enough support to thwart continuing regional opposition in the looming Senate debate.
Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell, D-Maine, called the compromise a comprehensive agreement that would substantially improve air quality during the next decade. He planned to bring the legislation to the Senate floor on Monday.
