Nares Found Lawrence Easy To Infiltrate
A young narcotics agent and a companion used in Kansas to infiltrate the University of Kansas drug scene describe how they gained trust in dorms and bought drugs. The raids led to 30 charges with twelve students among them, drawing university officials and candidates to criticize or defend the operations. The agents asked to remain anonymous, calling their roles spark plugs in Attorney General Vern Miller’s antidrug drive.

Miller plots statewide raids to stop drug peddlers in Kansas
Topeka attorney general Vern Miller told reporters that no drug pusher in Kansas is safe from his campaign against drugs. He displayed seized LSD, marijuana, amphetamines, hashish pipes, and processing equipment from raids in which 30 people were arrested in Lawrence. Miller said further raids are planned statewide and praised officers, noting many volunteered. He defended the operation as a law and order duty and disputed claims the raids were a publicity stunt. University reaction questioned, with Miller criticizing student drug users and stating most students are pursuing education. Kansas City authorities reported KU security was informed an hour before the raids.

Bingo's Fall Highlights Blizzard Plagued Week
TOPEKA AP In a week marked by a blizzard Kansas lawmakers killed a vote on gambling expansion for April. The constitutional amendment to remove the ban on lottery gambling failed to reach a two thirds Senate threshold by three votes. Advocates hoped to place bingo and a voting age amendment on a April 6 ballot but the effort stalled. With midweek passed and six weeks left, officials consider other issues such as pay raises for top state officials. The storm kept 23 senators and 62 representatives away, leaving the Senate without a quorum. The House Roads and Highways Committee shows divisions on highway financing options.
