University Daily Kansan. October 18. 1984 Page 5 Downtown continued from p.1 commercial development. The area now is zoned for residential use. City-City Planner Dean Palos outlined seven elements the planning staff must consider in each rezoning request, involving location, size and possible effects of rezoning the area. "It adds to the planning commission and the City Commission being reasonable in their consideration of the request," Palos said. "The decision has to be unarbitrary." DIC member Barbara Waggoner said she thought the suburban mall proposal probably confirmed that major department stores were still interested in Lawrence. BUT SHE QUESTIONED the lack of a commitment by a large store to Town Center's downtown project. Since November, Town Center has been unable to secure a commitment from a department store for its downtown development project. "It seems like we are invited to be part of something, something going on that we can't see. Were you?" Booth said the lack of commitment pointed out the speculative nature of recent proposals for significant mall development. Reagan continued from p. 1 pleased by Chernenko's emphasis "on positive possibilities for U.S.-Soviet relations." A senior official said the interview didn't contain much of the usual rhetoric leveled against the administration by Soviet officials. "We consider the tone positive," Speakes said. When asked if the interview marked a change in the Soviet position, he replied: "Not in substance. But we do welcome the constructive tone." Nonetheless, Speakes blamed the Soviets for the end of nuclear arms talks and aborted plans for discussions of weapons in space and asserted that Moscow should bear the burden for reopening the dialogue. "President Chernenko has stated that improvements in the U.S. Soviet relationship depend on deeds, not words," Speakes said. "We agree. When the Soviet Union is prepared to move from public exchanges to private negotiations and concrete agreements, they will find us ready." CHERNENKO, SAID BY THE Post to have appeared fit and in good spirits, contended that Reagan, despite a softening of his anti-Soviet rhetoric and a recent meeting with French President Andrei Gromykov, had provided "no ground" for a "serious shift in relations." "Unsupported by practical deeds, words about readiness to negotiate remain mere words," the Soviet leader said. Of the four areas cited by Chernenko, administration officials hinted only two — negotiations on space weapons and ratification of the nuclear testing pacts — were possible areas for progress. The administration opposes both the freeze and a pledge, already made by the Soviets, to not be the first to use nuclear weapons. A Soviet call for talks in Vienna this fall on weapons in space collapsed when Moscow charged that Reagan had imposed "impossible" conditions — namely his determination to raise other arms control issues. ON THE RECORD A STEREO NOISE reduction unit valued at $350 was stolen between 7:30 and 9 p.m. Monday from a student's apartment in the 11th block of Ohio Street, Lawrence police aid A STUDENT REPORTED that a sofa valued at $379 belonging to his mother was stolen sometime during the summer from a fraternity house in the 1400 block of Tennessee Street, Lawrence police said. A CASSETTE PLAYER, two microphones, three speakers, a digital clock, coffee pot and ceiling light, worth a total of $225, were stolen from an office in Trinity Episcopal Church, 110 Vermont St. by thieves who forced open doors into door with a crowbar, Lawrence police said. A NEON BEER SIGN, valued at $150, and seven quarts of cola, valued at $14.63, were stolen from a convenience store $6½ miles south of Lawrence on U.S. Highway 59, after someone threw a barrel through one of the store's windows at 3 a.m. yesterday, Lawrence police said. The window was valued at $250. A CAMERA VALUED at $135 and a lens valued at $79 were stolen between 10:30 and 10:50 p.m. Tuesday from an apartment in the block of Fireside Drive, Lawrence police said. Africa continued from p. 1 this semester before the committee. The committee killed a two-page version of the bill on Sept. 11 because members said it was not specific enough. The committee passed a five-page version of the bill on Oct. 3. The Senate on Oct. 10 sent the bill back to committee because the bill was not in proper legislative form. "Now we're bogged down in this borsome enforcement procedure." Highberger said. The Senate should give the police a simple argument over the wording of a sentence. In addition to limiting the use of Senate money, the bill also sets up a system of checks and balances. GROUPS THAT VIOLATE the rules three times in three years could lose their Senate financing. The bill also sets up a permanent subcommittee of the Finance Committee to deal with violations and prepare a list of groups that groups are forbidden to buy from. Tim Mitchell, associate professor of art history, agreed that those laws would hinder the bit effectiveness, within the bounds of the Senate club, in receiving $1,000 from the Senate for fiscal year 1985.

To solve the following system of equations, first rearrange each equation to match the form $Ax = b$. $2x + 3y = 8$ $4x - y = 5$ 2. Substitute the second equation into the first one. Solve for $x$. $2x + 3y = 8$ $4x - y = 5$ $7y = 13$ $y = \frac{13}{7}$ $x = -\frac{19}{7}$ 3. Substitute the values of $x$ and $y$ back into either original equation to verify your solution. $2(-\frac{19}{7}) + 3(\frac{13}{7}) = 8$ $-19 + 13 = 8$ True $4(-\frac{19}{7}) - (\frac{13}{7}) = 5$ $-19 - 13 = 5$ False The solution is $(-\frac{19}{7}, \frac{13}{7})$.
