Senate Extends Life of Kansas Special Committee
Washington voted to extend until March 31 the life of its four member special committee investigating a $2,500 campaign contribution during the gas bill debate. The extension aims to allow more time for report drafting and for leaders to resolve inter committee disputes amid an eight member group. In Topeka two Kansas National Guardsmen survived a helicopter crash east of the city after a control mechanism failed at 2000 feet. Pilot Markley and crew chief Hetrick, both from Topeka, escaped with minor bruises after a forced flat spin. The helicopter, a $39,000 craft, was damaged beyond repair and could not be flown again.
