White House security scare follows plane intruder
The article describes a self employed freight driver’s breach of White House airspace near Pennsylvania Avenue. President Clinton worked in the Oval Office as agents investigated motives, with relatives citing substance issues and family tragedy. Investigators note the intrusion did not aim to hurt the president, while questions remain on how such a flight could approach the White House. Treasury official Ron Noble leads the security review and officials emphasize avoiding speculation on future events.

Zoning Talk Targets Nudity Rules for Clubs
In an informal workshop the planning commission unanimously discussed nudity and obscenity rules. Catherine Parks noted restaurants with entertainment already restrict such conduct, but private clubs remain exempt. Executive planning items followed: Frederick County Board of Education plans October funding to move 40 employees from Church Street to Hayward Road, with costs between 300000 and 400000 and necessary renovations of about 150000. After vacating Church Street, the site may be reassigned to county or city use. Michael Williams urged the board to seek maximum effectiveness, saying subsidizing downtown lunches is not the commission's function.
