WASHINGTON <AP) ?
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.

accepting a $50,000 bribe

(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.
