New Year's Day of reckoning

 To the Editor:

[Tom Cardella’s] article regarding the loss of the New Year’s Parade in South Philadelphia was well-written. It spoke for the many of us who, like you, have enjoyed many decades of tradition. It wasn’t New Year’s Day this year. It was an economic tourist day. Perhaps it should be renamed as such. And maybe we can establish another tradition. Bring the clowns, string bands and fancies down to Broad Street and Snyder Avenue after their performance at City Hall and before the Second Street celebration. Let’s talk.
