State Wins Booze Test In Private Club Case
TOPEKA AP The state won a preliminary victory in a case testing the legality of private clubs in Kansas. The Kansas Supreme Court overturned a Shawe nee County District Court ruling that dismissed the suit against Grace's Caravan Club in Topeka, allowing the case to proceed to trial on its merits. The state, led by Attorney General William Ferguson, argues the club operates as a public-access nuisance where alcohol is consumed, violating state law.

Kansas reapportionment suit taken under advisement
Topeka AP A Kansas Supreme Court session heard arguments on a bid to reapportion the 125 house seats by population. Plaintiffs led by Hutchinson publisher John Harris argue a constitutional county representation rule should stand. Defendants, led by Gov. John Anderson, concede the current system conflicts with federal one man one vote rulings. The court kept jurisdiction while the 1965 Legislature may reapportion, with federal cases already challenging Senate lines and district populations ranging roughly 47 000 to 62 000.
