Brickbat: I See You Won First Prize

|

The Granite City, Missouri, School Board has barred William Carruba from attending his senior prom wearing a kilt. Carruba says he bought a kilt made out of the family's tartan to honor his mother's Scottish heritage. But when he asked school officials about wearing it to the prom, Carruba says his principal said he should dress like a man. Superintendent Harry Briggs denied that anyone questioned the manliness of kilt wearers.
