Daley Made 'Patriot'

THE REAL WORLD

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

CHICAGO--The Order of Paul Revere Patriots has welcomed its newest member--Chicago Mayor Richard J. Daley--who can now enjoy privileges denied to lesser citizens of the Commonwealth.

Daley, who this week received a membership scroll signed by Gov. John A. Volpe and Secretary of State John F. X. Davoren, is thus entitled to:

*Dump tea in Boston Harbor

*Graze his cows on the Common

*Coast down Bunker Hill (weather and traffic permitting)

*Exceed the speed limit (on horse-back) through every village and farm in Middlesex Country--which includes Cambridge--on April 19, Patriots' Day.

Being tapped for the semi-state-sponsored organization is deemed an honor comparable to receiving a commission in the Nebraska Navy or a nomination as a Cook Country poll-watcher.
