House passes sweeping tax overhaul bill
The House approved a sweeping tax overhaul by voice vote with 256 to 171. Democrats backed keeping the bill alive against a GOP bid to send it to committee, while President Reagan and leaders touted a historic step toward a new tax code and tax fairness. The Senate’s eventual fate remains uncertain with expectations ahead of Congress’s August recess.

Nosy Urbana Pike resident helps free abducted officer
Dewayne Phillips, who describes himself as just nosy, heard cries for help near his Urbana Pike home and confronted a man handcuffed to a tree. The victim, off-duty Baltimore City police sergeant Robert T. Matuszak, had been robbed and abducted from Eldersburg and driven about 40 miles to the woods. Phillips and neighbor Ruby Hardy alerted 911 as authorities pursued the disturbance, and Phillips tried to unlock the cuffs with a key that proved ineffective.
