THE WEEK, Page 30NATIONIt's a Blackboard Jungle Out There
After 12-year-old student William Figueroa finished writing
out the word potato during a spelling bee at the Luis Munoz
Rivera School in Trenton, New Jersey, Vice President Dan Quayle,
relying on a flash card, urged the youngster to add an "e".
"I knew he was wrong," said Figueroa later. "He probably
feels embarrassed about that, probably mad a little bit . . .
but I hope he can take it."
