A
lot goes into planning a Fourth of July celebration
in Lincoln, including dollars.
Once again this year, the Lincoln Park District
will host the ultimate fast-food drive-thru to
raise funds for the annual fireworks display at
the park district on the Fourth. The
drive-thru fried chicken dinner will be hosted
at the American Legion, 1740 Fifth St., on
Friday from 4:30 to 7 p.m. The menu will include
potato salad, baked beans and roll, along with some
excellent fried chicken.

Canine star Uggie attends the
paw print ceremony for him at Grauman's Chinese Theatre in Los
Angeles
on Monday. Uggie, star of the
Oscar-winning film "The Artist," became the first dog to cement
his paws outside of Grauman's. Uggie was
celebrated during a ceremony with a golden bow-tie collar and a cake in the shape of
a fire hydrant. He arrived in a fire
truck. The event also marked Uggie's retirement from show
business.
