President Reagan says he favors keeping Jerusalem under Israeli rule but supports a Vatican-like solution to ensure free access to holy sites. White House stressed his view is not official policy and negotiations should decide Jerusalem's future. He also pledged to combat anti Semitism. A severe Midwestern blizzard killed at least five, and heavy snow contributed to the collapse of a large fabric dome in Minneapolis.

Kremlin softens attack on Reagan missile cuts plan

Brunswick rezoning approved while larger plan denied as premature
At the Frederick County rezoning hearing, Thomas E. Sigler won approval to rezone 38.71 acres on Point of Rocks Road from agriculture to residential, with testimony highlighting compliance with the comprehensive plan and potential school impact. The staff recommended denial due to rural reserve status and Brunswick High School capacity concerns, yet the plan was approved unanimously. Howard F. Payne’s 97.54 acre mixed use request near Md 60 and Md 75 was denied as premature despite plans for a professional office and 40 residential lots, with staff arguing it conflicts with the comprehensive plan and would add traffic hazards on Md 60. eight area accidents and school crowding concerns were cited. Commissioner Adrian Md. Remsberg moved to deny the application.
