nonconforming man.
Dean Burkhead, Ray's attorney, said Ray's agreement with the city had provided for screening, an asphalt driveway and a sanded parking lot. He said if the property wasn't rezoned, none of these improvements would be made.
"If I were living in that area, I'd much rather live there after the rezoning and with it."
MIKE DAVIS, CHARIMAN of the planning commission, read a letter from representatives of the old West Lawrence Association. The letter opposed the rezoning on the grounds it wasn't consistent with plans for Haskell Loop. Haskell Loop is a proposed road that will connect four residential zones in a way that it would act as a buffer between industrial and residential zones. The letter said that because Ray's property was situated with residential property, the buffer effect would be misplaced if Ray's property were in
Hull said the neighborhood residents thought that using designation was unacceptable to both themselves and others.
"We're not here to try to do anybody out of business." he said.
Hull said the residents would try to have
the property screened through channels
other than the main road.
McClanathan said regulating the salvage yard wouldn't be possible through any channels other than zoning. He said state law controlled air pollution, and a local ordinance controlled weeds. Local ordinances controlling other factors, however, are probably too ambiguous to be enforced in this case, he said.
Holmes told a jury of eight women and four men yesterday that he had pressed charges against Dillard because Dillard interrupted his class and he thought someone had to act to stop the pie-throwing incidents.
"Someone had to set a limit," Holm testified. "I was worried that someone would try to distract commencement. There had been talk of hitting the chancellor or
HOLMES ALSO SAID he thought this kind of image had the bad for image of the university of Kansas.
restifying in his own defense, Dillard said he hit Holmes with the "pie in good fun."
Dillard said he had been contacted by members of Holmes' class who offered $20 for throwing a pie at Holmes. Dillard said, "I will accept any money for throwing the pie."
Holmes said he put Dillard in an arm-cool so he wouldn't try to struggle, but that he would.
Holmes testified that he chased Dillard after the pie was thrown and caught him on the south side of Fraser as he was diving into a bush.
That testimony was disputed by Sharon Lee, a building and grounds employee, who said she saw Holmes place Dillard in an 'arm hold and a choke hold'.
KEVIN DENNIS, also a building and ground employee, mistified that he heard
Dillard said Holmes choked him, and removed his glasses and wallet.
"I did manage to persuade him to let me breathe." Dillard said.
Holmes said he didn't know beforehand that someone was going to try to throw a pie at him.
However, Dillard, who said he was standing outside the door of Holmes' class, said he had heard Holmes' teaching and was intrigued by how everyone holding a gate outside the classroom.
James Blosser, Canton, ill., senior, testified that he also had heard the teaching assistant tell Holmes that someone had a pie outside the classroom. Blossor had dropped the class earlier in the semester but attended the day of the incident.

"I went because I wanted to learn how to swear," Blaser said. He said he didn't go to school. "I went to see."
Attorney, asked Blosser if he had attended the class just to see the pie thrown.
Blossor said he had been called by another member of the class asking him to donate money to have someone throw a pie at him. The class had participated in the incident.
Holmes had always put people down,
Blossom said, and thrown chalk and erasers
"The students though they could be turn down a notch (by hiring someone to answer) or ask for permission."
Holmes testified that the p肚 had stained his pants "from the belt to the knee."
Another student in the class, Greg Vogt, Wichita state, testified that the Vogt had a mark on Holmes pants only 4 inches left and two inches wide.
If the jury doesn't reach a verdict this morning, there is a chance that there will be guilty pleas.
