Chicago Prepares For Visit
(N.Z. Press Association—Copyright) CHICAGO, July 1. Chicago proved today there is little this friendly city will not do to give the Queen a good time during her 13-hour visit here next Monday. The Mayor announced a campaign against litterbugs, so there Will not be a cigarette butt or sweet wrapper on the streets during the tour. Sherry was added to a menu and cantaloupe subtracted when the Queen’s preferences were made known, United Press International reported.
No ashtrays will be placed on the dining tables until after dessert is served, in the hope that guests will take the hint and not smoke.
The Queen and the Duke of, Edinburgh will be guests of honour at two meals in Chicago —a lunch and a dinner.
