WASTEFUL SPENDING PATROL -- In their most recent Tiger Rag (the newsletter of PUSH, sent to all South High students), PUSH, which is South High's PTA, outlined their large expenditures for the year and urged anyone with extra cash to send it to them because they know how to spend money better than you do...or something to that effect. Anyhow, here is the list of major PUSH expenditures. See how many you think we could get rid of without suffering any hardship!

• Tiger Rag Publication

• Insurance

• National PTA Dues

• Freshman Orientation

• Fall Open House

• All School Fair

• 8^th Grade Open House

• Staff Appreciation Events

• Metro Transit Bus Passes for Students

• Copy Machine for Students and Staff

• Post-Secondary Education Fair

• Guthrie Presentation

• Teacher Wish List Postage

• Senior Party

You know, after looking at this list, I can honestly say that I'm GLAD I never wasted any money on this organization. What do you think? Are there better things a PTA could do with their money? To share your thoughts on our message boards, click the link below.--Mr. T Bagger, Editor at Large
