Show PTA Campaign to Combat Litter Problem in P.G. Litter is a serious national problem. $100,000,000 is spent annually cleaning highways. Millions more are spent for removal re-moval of litter from public buildings buil-dings and city streets. Because public littering is a growing concern in today's vorld, the PTA locally is promoting pro-moting a working plan that they hope will make adults and youth alike conscious of the problem of litter in our country. Both secondary and elementary elemen-tary schools are involved in the litter campaign. They are encouraging en-couraging every school to have a successful litter program. Contests are being held in all the schools with prizes being awarded by the PTA Council for the best theme and poster. Nobody loves a "litterbug" so the PTA urges all to do their part to keep America, and particularly our own city, a clean and beautiful place to live. |
