(AP) More than 1.000 persons met in the Grandview High School Auditorium Sunday to protest plans to build a medium-security prison in the area State Commissioner of Administration Neil Nielsen was interrupted a dozen times by boos and catcalls during his 20-minute speech. The state recently announced that it picked a 261-acre site for the $17.5 million prison in an area adjoining Grandview, Victor F. Swyden, a Kansas City councilman, called for the formation of a coalition to oppose construction of the prison. But Nielsen said the coalition efforts might be in vain because the real estate transaction is so close to completion. He said he would consult with an attorney about the matter, but the decision appears to be up to the owners of the land and the state.

Should the cosigners of the contract agree to back off on the deal, he said, then perhaps the state can reconsider. THE SEDALIA DEMOCRAT 700 Massachusetts Sedalia.
