From the Lawrence Daily Journal-World for Oct. 19, 1974:

Kansas University was planning a conference designed to interest women in law careers and to inform them of their present legal rights. The conference, “Women and the Law,” was to feature sessions on the Equal Rights Amendment, abortion, and retail or credit sales discrimination. Conference speakers included Johnson County district attorney Margaret Jordon, discussing “The History and Reality of Legal Sex Discrimination,” and Barbara Schopper, an attorney with the Equal Employment Opportunity Office, discussing prevention and remedies for employment discrimination. The topic of abortion was to be covered in a debate which, according to a conference coordinator, was “designed to show women how to present their ideas in a public form and to develop logical expression and research, not to settle the abortion issue.”
