Former Rep. John W. Jenrette was served with preliminary divorce papers Tuesday on behalf of his wife Rita as he stood outside a federal courtroom where he is appealing his Abscam bribery conspiracy conviction. "I don't really want this," Jenrette said as a federal marshal handed him the papers seeking a legal separation. Jenrette's attorney, Kenneth M. Robinson, accused Mrs. Jenrette, who was not present, of "a cheap publicity trick." But Jenrette declined to comment when asked if he agreed with his lawyer. "I just got it (the papers). I'm shocked," he said. Robinson told reporters, "You ought not to write the story. It's kind of like a kid who wants attention. You should ignore the kid." Jenrette, a South Carolina Democrat who was defeated for re-election last year, was convicted on Oct. 7, 1980, along with Richmond, Va. businessman John Stowe of accepting a $50,000 bribe paid by an FBI undercover agent posing as an aide to two Arab sheiks. S.C.S for 3: (AP) ? Officials at South Carolina State College are quietly pushing a potentially controversial proposal to merge the predominantly black school with two others, according to a published report. It has been proposed that S.C. State, which is located in urangeourg, S.C., be combined with the University of South Carolina's branch campus at Aiken and OrangeburgCalhoun Technical College to form S.C. State University, The State said in Tuesday morning's edition. But the newspaper said observers think the proposal will draw a lot of fire. nr>l 1 i_ nit; prupusai is a response to a federal Education Department order that a plan be drawn up for desegregating South Carolina's state-supported colleges and universities by March 8.
