Chicago Bears
Exchanging their football helmets and spiked shoes for gym snorts, the Chicago Bears have left their Soldier Field den and are stepping out on the hardwood of the Huntley High School Gymnasium.
These gridders turned cagers are happy to bring their basketball act to Huntley.
Pressure and competition is replaced by easy going fun and games, and the fan is rewarded with the opportunity to meet and talk with Ditka's prize pupils by taking ad¬ vantage of the photo and autograph booths.
Players who will be showcasing their tal¬ ents on the court in¬ clude hard-hitting Otis Wilson and Dave Duerson, who serve to remind you that basket¬ ball is not exactly a non-contact sport.
The Bears offense is engineered by Emery Morehead, who is out to prove that he can score from anywhere on the floor.
The Bears fast break starts with the Offensive Linemen underneath, and with Mark Bortz  Kurt Becker, and Jay Hilgenberg crashing the boards, Calvin Thomas is well on his way to an easy lay up at the other end of the court.
You can't afford to pass up the Chicago Bears Basketball, great family entertainment.
Advance ticket sales are available at the High School until Sunday, Dec. 14, 11:00 a.m. ONLY.

Burglaries
The Village of Huntley has had three residential burglaries in the last four weeks, the first in three years. The offenders responsible for these burglaries were arrest¬ ed on Saturday, Dec. 6, 1986 by a special burglary task force which included per¬ sonnel from the Huntley Police Dept. The of¬ fenders who were arrested are not from this area and have been responsible for over 1,500 burglaries in the surrounding area in the last few years.
As a reminder to the residents of this Village, we are not immune to something like this happening again. The Police Dept. can not do the job alone without your co-operation. When you leave your house, leave some lights on, make sure you lock your doors and try to make the house look as if someone might be home. Keep an eye on what's going on in the area, where you live,and if you see something that doesn't look right, give the Police Dept. a call, even if you don't want to leave your name. Some of the information that helped get the people respon¬ sible for these bur¬ glaries arrested came From people just like you who called to help. If you see anything suspicious just call 669-2131 and we'll check it out. That's what we are here for. Richard A. Rossi Chief of Police
