Inscriptions recto (printed): (CX3) CHICAGO, August 13--POLE SITTERS--Man and woman sit on crossbar / atop utility poles today in Chicago--part of a protest against con- / struction of mobile classrooms which school board says are needed and / which demonstrators say are not. This is part of systematic hampering / of workmen on job, but since Chicago weather turned chilly and blustery, / it could be the pole sitters wish they'd brought sweaters.
