Authorities Place 10 Per Cent Sales Tax On Activity Card An order was issued by the United Unit-ed States government to public school officials placing a 10 per cent sales tax on all activity cards purchased since October 1, announced an-nounced DeVoe Woolf, principal. As no further charge is to be made to students having purchased activity cards since October 1, the new ruling necessitates deducting the 10 per cent from South high school's general fund. The regular activity fee of $3.50 may be raised to $3.85 next year or the Board of Education may rule to keep that fee at its present standard rate. If the latter step is taken, according to Mr. Woolf it would mean approximately a $700 cut in school activities as far as South is concerned.
