Borders reworks blueprints to preserve building's façades
By Liz Musser
Kansan staff writer
After more than three months of debate, the Borders developers have decided to listen to the people of Lawrence.
"What we're seeing here is the process of swords turning back into plow shares," said Wint Winter, attorney for Wint Inc.
Winter said Friday that Borders had redesigned its plans for a proposed Borders bookstore to preserve the facades of two walls
of a 98 year-old livery stable.
Since August, Winter Inc. has met opposition on the proposed plan because the plan called for the demolition of the stable at 700 New Hampshire St. Local preservationists, the city's Historic Resources Commission and the state's historic preservation office opposed the destruction of the old building because the preservation office said destroying the building would damage the historic environs of the Eldridge Hotel across the street
at 701 Massachusetts St.
Winter said the new design would incorporate the facades of the north and west walls of the stable. The west side of the building is designed to resemble the downtown storefronts.
"To the pedestrian, the view is as if you are on Massachusetts Street." he said.
Marci Francisco, president of the Lawrence Preservation Alliance, said she was glad that Borders had listened to Lawrence residents' concerns
"We're very pleased," she said. "It sounds like a lot of thought has gone into the concerns that were addressed."
and had tried to compromise.
Winter said Borders should be commended on its dedication to the project.
"I have been amazed and delighted with the perseverance of Borders," Winter said. "This is the best shot I can imagine that we can provide."
The Historic Resources Com
mission will consider the new design at 7:30 p.m. tomorrow in the Union Pacific Depot, 402 N. Second St. The drawings will be on display before the meeting.
The commission will decide whether the new plan will damage the environs of the Eldridge Hotel.
Cathy Amber, a member of the commission, said that in her opinion, she could not see why the new plan would not pass an environs review.
Professor calls for gambling helpline
By Dave Breitenstein Kansan staff writer
TOPEKA—A man sold his kidney for $30,000 — then lost the money gambling three weeks later. Several people remained seated in front of slot machines while the MGM Grand in Las Vegas burned down around them.
Henry Lesieur, professor of criminal justice and sciences at
Illinois State University, told these true stories and others Saturday to a crowd of nearly 100 at the Kansas Expocentre, 1 Expcentree Drive, in Topeka.
The speech, which was sponsored by St. Francis Hospital and Medical Center, focused on the history, identification and impacts of gambling. Lesieur said the state should offer help to addicted gamblers.
"The state of Kansas has a responsibility to help people by providing a helpline that is funded by the state and by providing awareness programs," he said.
St. Francis paid Lesieur $2,000 plus expenses for the lecture.
While state financing can combat gambling problems, casinos have a responsibility as well. Lesieur said. He recommended that casinos post signs about
where to go for help, begin employee assistance programs, stop casing checks, remove ATM machines from the casinos and allow gamblers to ban themselves from casinos.
Lesieur said college students were at risk to have gambling problems because of their age, interest in sports and society's acceptance of gambling.
bling go on among college students," he said. "About 5 1/2 percent of college students are pathological gamblers, compared to 2 percent of the general population."
"We know there is serious gam-
KU students may have another predisposition to addiction because of Lawrence's geographical location, which is close to several casinos in Kansas City, Mo., Lesieur said.
Fox broadcast helps in capture of Salina suspect
BOSTON — A Kansas man suspected in July's bludgeoning deaths of three people in his home state was in custody yesterday in Boston, where he was captured shortly after the national broadcast of a television show about the case.
The Associated Press
Alan Eugene White, 26, had been named as a suspect within weeks after the bodies of an 81-year-old woman, her daughter and great-grandson were found in the older woman's Salina home in July.
White, formerly of Salina, was arrested by the FBI on a fugitive warrant Saturday night at the city-run Long Island Shelter Annex. He had been at the shelter at least two months, said Mary King, direct care counselor.
The arrest came less than a half-hour after the case was featured on the Fox program America's Most Wanted: America Fights Back.
"We received several tips four to five minutes after the profile aired from people saying he was at some sort of shelter in Boston," Kathy Swanda, spokeswoman for the show said late Saturday.
Salina police have filed an affidavit in Saline County seeking warrants against White for three charges of first-degree murder, Police Chief Jim Hill said yesterday.
"We have circumstantial and scientific evidence linking him to the crime scene," Hill said.
