James Cagney To nuvz::dfic Make Appearance Due Long In Libertyville Labor Day Weekâ€"End of the Mexican government to coopâ€" erate with the continental policy of rubber saving. The Liberty i club, with m:d'ud i of other Lions of Lake/county agreed to sponâ€" sor the appearance of Cagney in Lake county and immediately set up an organization for greeting Cagney on his arrival in the county and an exâ€" tensive program for the evening which will contain a myriad of innoâ€" vations all free to the public to atâ€" tend. A feature of the program will be an old fashioned auction at which gifts will be sold and be paid for by bonds which will be on sale at the grounds that night. § James Cagney will come to Lake county direct from Hollywood for a personal appearance in Libertyville at a bond selling festival tonight (Thursday), Robert Collier, manager of the Liberty theatre, has announced. The appearance of Cagney in Lake county is in connection with a nationâ€" wide effort in September by . the movie industry to sell bonds. The Liberty theatre will not be commercialized in any sense of the word in Cagney‘s appearance at Libâ€" ertyville, as he will appear in Cook Memorial park in the center of the village during the weekly Thursday uight band concert by the Libertyâ€" ville Municipal band where all who care to may see) him. L The evening will conclude= under present plans with the tentative enâ€" tertainment of the famous star at a country estate somewhere in the cenâ€" tral Lake ¢ounty area at which more bonds will be offered for sale. The Mexican government has susâ€" pended the issuance of exportation permits for tires to visiting motorâ€" ists in Mexico, according to informaâ€" tion relayed to the Chicago Motor club. _ This new restriction, the announceâ€" ment stated, is the result of the desire Mexico Suspends Issuance of Permits For Tire Exportation Robt.

Studies show that pedestrians wearing or carrying something white at night are seen more easily by motorists. Green Bay Pitcher At Fort Sheridan Gov. Dwiffiit H. Green says : "Speed in war ind@itry will save our freeâ€" dont, our 1i and our nation, while speed on thd highway, at this time, will accomplish nothing. Operating a car at h speeds wastes material that is greded for war machines and money . bonds and manpower. Conserve your speed on the highway, but use it where needed for a quick victory." } Bob Essex, who won 11 games and lost but two this season for the Green Bay Blucjays of the Wisconsin State league, is now pitching for the Fort Sheridan baseball team. In the past two seasons, the bespectacled hurler has won 19 games and lost but five for Green Bay. i Previous to joining the Bluejays he hurled for the Milwaukee Brewers of the American association and for Madison, Wis., of the Threeâ€"Eye league. Each oneâ€"thirtyâ€"second â€"ofâ€"anâ€"inch or rubber in the nonskid portion of a tire represents 2,500 miles of wear, the Iilinois Automobile club reports. Studies further show that the basic treadless rubber covering of a tire will allow at least an additional 15,000 miles, but these remaining miles may be more hazardous as the tige is smooth and there will be more danâ€" ger o‘ syidding. Bicycles are increasing in use as a wartime mode of transportation and they frequently complicate traffic; both motorists and cyclists must be prepared to meet this problem, reâ€" minds the club. Moderate driving speeds are vital to longer tire and car life. Don‘t drive over 40 miles an hour. It is ¢sâ€" timated that 20 per cent greater imileâ€" age may be obtained at 35 than at 40 and that used tires capable of 10,000 more miles will go at least 12000 if driving is not over 40, and another 2000 will be added if speeds do not exceed 35. "Although long automobile trips are not . forbidden, shorter excursions should be emphasized," says Carl A. Barrett, president of the club. "Iiâ€" nois has fine nearby recreation spots that motorists can easily reach: for their Labor day outing. White Pines forest near Oregon is well worth seeâ€" ing. and Giant City park near Carâ€" bondale is another scenic center. New Salem park, north of Sprin(fiel‘. is a significant historical shrine. Pere Marquette park, above Alton, and Starved Rock. long a favorite, are within easy driving distances, Black Hawk park, close to Rock Island, and spectacular Mississippi Palisades park are other outstanding IHlinois holiday attractions." The long Labor day weekâ€"end, marking the close of the vacation seaâ€" son, will see extra heavy traffic on i ragnk i maten in ing in multiplied & torists use the greatest care, may be many serious accidents. With the nation at war, every driver should exercise the utmost caution, warns the IHlinois Automobile club. CHANTICLEER INN, Suite 350â€"355, 407 $.
