The fearless hero scraped it off the wall as the teacher stepped from be- hind her chair and resumed teach- ing. Pestering creatures were com- monly seen flying around inside the juniors' classrooms during spring and early fall. Mrs. Eudy regularly interrupted her AP English class to hand over the flyswatter so someone could chase down the bee, fly, or wasp. If the insect was of the stinging sort, mass hysteria broke out. For those juniors who were allergic to bees and wasps, these small crea- if 'sal E. 7 ' 1 ' K: .f by nib ' f ' . Q fi' ' 'syn M J.

Sherri McGhee's crusade to kill whatever bug happens to appear is evi- denced in her unrelenting stakeout of her side- walk. Mrs. Eudy, as well as several juniors in her class, are allergic to bee stings. Jarrod Davis, appointed class bee-killer, leaps into the air in his attempt to save the class. ,.-- ' k ,.,...- .F ' . . 'S QQ moking o killing uJhere's the roid? tures were no longer harmless. I haven't been stung since I was young, but I don't want to take the chance of it happening again. I al- ways go out of my way to avoid bees whenever they're in the room, said Becky Norwood. Flies had easy access to the classrooms because of the constant opening and closing of the doors to the buildings. During the hotter months of the year, before the coun- ty office consented to turn on the air conditioner, windows were left open. A popular classroom activity found the entire class trying to coax an in- sect out of the window. Crawling bugs also created a hazard for the junior's studies. Spi- ders left squeamish juniors jumping out of seats and stomping around on the floor until the offending crea- ture was obliterated. Another unpopular, unwanted guest was the common mosquito. Everyone was fearless when it came to the mosquito. Occasional slaps punctuated the otherwise silent classroom. Whether it was a spider, a wasp, or just a simple fly, it was sure to cause an interruption. Ridding the class of bugs gave the average junior a chance to portray his bravery while it provided a break from routine for the rest of the class.
