Unfortunately, the City Attorney was unavailable, and a majority was unwilling to proceed without legal advice. The item is expected to be brought back on May 17. The council did go ahead with a discussion of how to deal with dogs, smokers, barbecues and high-backed chairs at the Sundays in the Park concerts which normally draw as many as 5,000 people on a given concert date. file photos Citing public safety and liability issues, the council The City Council this week decided to decided that all dogs will be banned from the park during ban dogs - like these two getting to know concerts and that barbecues will be allowed only at picnic each other at last year’s concert in July - tables or designated areas.

THE LEARNING CHALLENGER by Robert Barnett

DIRECTIONS: A. Using each "Chaos Grid" number with its letter one time, arrange the numbers with their letters for the "Order Grid" so each vertical column, horizontal row, and two diagonals each ADD to numbers inside thick lined cells. B. Some correct numbers with their letters have been put into the "Order Grid" to get you started. Also, above the "Order Grid" is a "Decoded Message" clue. C. After you have solved the "Order Grid" doing as direction "A" says, put the let- ters from horizontal rows, from left to right, under "Decoded Message" and make words to form the answer.
