Hyde Park faces crowded 55th Street buses and no new Express
The CTA has 200 new buses funded by a state grant but none will serve Hyde Park as Express lines. Officials say these are replacement buses and no Garfield Express expansion is planned, despite ridership concerns and a survey noting underutilized 55 Garfield service during peak hours.

Shakeup Predicted in 5th Ward Democratic Club Leadership
Sources close to the 5th Ward Democratic club say President Robert Landrum will depart around year end and James A. Williams is the likely successor. Williams, a former rival of Robert Newhouse, is allied with county commissioner and 8th Ward official John Stroger. The move, directed by Mayor Daley’s office, follows persistent opposition to Landrum over alleged weakening of Democratic influence and neglect of traditional voters.
