Comics Now Darker in Daily Strips Reviewer Says

He recalls classic strips like Katzenjammer Kids and Beetle Bailey, notes a tragic bike death, and urges safety lessons for children and better manners on the road. He also critiques barber shop talk and offers a cautious call for civic responsibility.

Sauers Opposes U of I Plan To Use Forest Lands
Forest Preserve superintendent Charles G. Sauers urged civic groups to oppose the University of Illinois plan to use forest preserve land for a Chicago area campus. He warned the proposal could threaten the integrity of Cook County forest preserves and set a dangerous precedent for public properties statewide. The university trustees may pursue land via condemnation, while Sauers asks groups to pass resolutions and inform Governor Stratton.
