131 Let It All Hang Out The southern belle of our school IS Mrs. OIlie Walker, social studies teacher. Her slow drawl and southern charm make her a well- known and liked character atOHS. One of Mrs. Walker ' s famous embarrassing pun- ishments is making the offender stand up in front of the class for a long period of time with his or her mouth wide open and tongue hanging out. This is what she refers to as let- ting it all hang out. Gener- ally, it is punishment for students whose mouth won ' t stay shut anyway. Mrs. Walker has unusual ways of dealing with other trouble-makers, too. For instance, gum chewers end up with gum behind their ears or over the bridges of their noses, and loud mouths have to duck-walk down the hall or write long sentences about how good they ' ll be tomorrow. Look out, she ' s got eyes in the back of her head, as she always says. If you want to find her, she ' s probably sporting a new car, like her Grand Prix, or just listen for some- one who calls everyone Honey. 131
