. >> tom: an american indian tribe is taking on some of the world's largest beer makers. the oglala sioux tribe claims the brewers knowingly contribute to alcoholism on south dakota's pine ridge indian reservation. the tribe wants a half billion dollars from anheuser-busch inbev, miller, molson coors, and pabst brewing. it's also suing four beer stores in a nearby town. that town has about a dozen residents, but sells an estimated five million cans of beer a year, most to residents of the dry reservation. no comment yet from the brewers. >> susie: teaching kids about money is more than just counting pennies. tonight's "kids & cash" explores what it means to teach financial values. here's james wood, author of "from ramen to riches." >> when teaching your kids about money, it's helpful to get them thinking about the role they want money to play in their lives. after all, money is embedded into every nook and cranny of our lives-- not just physically, but philosophically. why do some who are rich flaunt it, and others live such a low- key life that their neighbors have no idea of their weal

indian nicknames. well, the university of south dakota fighting sioux fought back a group of alumni and lawmakers actuallyand passed a law mandating that the school keep the fighting sioux nickname, so the ncaa slapped the school with a bunch of sanctions -- no hosting playoffs, no championships, no wearing the fighting sioux uniforms during the playoffs. so the state finally gave in and repealed the law, but the critics did not give up. they fought back again, they got a petition and got enough signatures to actually force this thing on the ballot for a statewide vote later this year. but that automatically makes the law go back into effect. so if they don't use the name, they violate state law, and if they use the fighting sioux name, they violate ncaa regulations. here's what some of the locals are saying. >> i think it's awesome that north dakota's keeping their logo. of it's a staple, and it's something that needs to stick around. >> they would have to change the whole stadium and change everything around in north dakota to have, to be the new name if they were to change it. >> i don't think they sho
