“ Have you ever wondered how­
to spell the word banana” The
Journalism class got into an
uproar Tuesday afternoon with
hall of the class on one side and
half on the other side Even the
second-vear Journalism student
a “Senior” was on the wrong
side “Can you imagine” ’
After much debate. Mrs
Hearing got down a dictionary
looked up the word and showed it
to the 'Senijp.’J who replied
“ I t ’s wrong' ” The dictionary
didn’t give a second spelling
either so the student didn’t even
have a chance since the be­
ginning»
Next, as if that wasn't enough,
the “Senior” started a discus­
sion on another word and by the
same procedure he lost again
Mrs Hearing and this particular
student spent approximately fif­
teen minutes on two words'
At the end of the day. at least
the students learned how to spell
“ banana' and that there is only
one approved way to spell “all
right "Now all Mrs Hearing has
to do is convince the student,
which is. by the sound of things,
going to be a little more than a
teaching job'.

“ What does Halloween mean
to you’’ “ When questioned, se­
veral high school students said it
means “time to break out your
rotten eggs, tomatoes, and fire­
crackers to throw on Halloween
night.” The grade school stu­
dents said it was “ time to trick-
or-treat “ The adults said “it is a
time when you are interrupted
every five minutes by a kid who
wants candy, or going with the
kids so that the big ones don’t
scare them to death.”
It used to be when a kid did
something on Halloween nothing
happened But with the way
repair prices are today the kid
might not only pay for it but may
end up in jail too A lot of the
blame should go to those parents
who brag about what they did as
kids They are actually influenc­
ing their kids to do the same or
similar things
The police try to keep order
but there just aren't enough of
them to do it.
