Cheers and Jeers for Vietnam Aid Return
Cheers to Save the Children for returning to Vietnam to aid Thanh Hoa Province with food, education, and malnutrition relief after the war.

Jeers to Vincent Tese for endorsing a Yankees buyout and Yankees Stadium digs over broader state goals. Jeers to the New York official for a proposal unlikely to win support. Cheers to North Syracuse School Board for learning from voters and expanding meetings to four monthly sessions to improve governance.
