Sources

  1. Fifth- and sixth-grade students ask Islanders to save Campbell, Franco American, Pepperidge Farm, Swanson, Vlasic, and Mrs. Pauls product labels for school supplies; labels could be sent to the school. The holding institution's portal restricts automated access; the archive holds a copy of this issue and can provide it on request.
