 CAR BREAK-INS AT FIRESIDE
     Brian Peterson at Fireside Bowl has asked me to post the following:
 
     Someone has been breaking into cars outside of Fireside.  He's broken
     into about 70 cars so far.  Anybody with any information about this,
     please mail that information to the address below.
 
     This information could include:
         *   Copies of police reports from your car having been broken into
 
         *   Lists of stuff that was stolen, even if you didn't report it to
             the police
 
         *   Any information on the person who has been doing it
 
     Also, be extra careful to not leave anything of value in your car when
     going to Fireside.  Keep it in your trunk, etc.
 
     Please send any information to:
         Brian Peterson / PO Box 470650 / Chicago, IL  60647
