"YFAH!" SAM said. "I even
tard some people are having a
problem with tinted hair too."
"WOOmever it is, if I was that
person," Wichita said. "I would
not change anything because
dress codes and hair tint doesn't
have anything to do with ability.
And the budget is something they
should be thinld� about, if they
haven't already been told to work
onlt,"
"All right Wrotc,"Sam said.
"What about that honeymoon
thing?"
"I. don't understand your
question Sam," I said. "What do
you mean when you y 'what
about this ooneymoon thing?"
"I mean." Sam said. "SOOuld
we wait before we start talldng
checks and balances?"
"Heck 00. Sam." I said. "We
need to remember we are the eyes
and the C8IS of the people; not ju§t
thlse who voted for or against
whichcvercaOOidate. AOO I hare
Sister Pearl's concerns. Seven
thousand and one hundred dollam
is too much money to be spent
frlvou§ly because $7,100 worth
of tramition morey makes me
hiver when I think what the tax
payer inaugw-ation cost might be.
And that is the bottom �."
"WE WERE nderi "
Sam . "If you tOOught Unsey
Porer and Enum Hull, Highland
P r' nd Benton Harbor'
mayo elect, respectively, will
have lengthy ooneymoo .
"We! woo?" Wichi ked. "I
am rot interested inboreymoons,

''Yeah!'' Sam id. "And just
what do you mean by that?"
"1 hear there is talk about the
city laying off personnel and
king the mayor elect to relinquish
power so the finaOOal solvency
of Highlml Park can be res­
tored," Wichita 'd.
"Well, it's evident that he, Mr
Porter, didn't tar or could care

unanimouslv. I mtzht add.
'$7 ,150' worth of tax payer' tran-
ition funds, tI, Sam said.
"Lands sake," Sister Pearl
said. "What will he use the money
for'l"
"All that dumb tuff like rent­
ing an office, hiring an 'executive
secretary,' attorney fees, light,
, tclepho�, rent and an ac­
countant to keep track of where
every di� goes," Wichita said.
"But But But I tOOught the
city was in a finaIyja} biI¥l?"
Sister Pearl ked.
"WE DID TOO," Sam said
"But that w before the cleo­
tiom."
"What do you mean by that?"
Sister Pearl asked.
"He meam that after the bal­
lots were counted things
changed," Wichita said. "I've
heard that Etnma Hull is even
refusing to meet with the grass
roots people who helped her get
elected."
"Hey Wrote! Have you been
listening td all of this?" Sam
yelled. "We are still waiting for
your arswer to that boreymoon

"But wait, Mister Wrote,"
Sister Pearl said. "Over at the
church the other day, some of the
sisters were saying they heard the
older of the cowx:il members are
giving council elect members
