'ry'-IT ofilferary 670mp05c'Zl'0l79 FRIENDLESS Students,as youknow, today was to have beenourmost important exe amination of the year, but someone has taken my answers. Unless the guilty person is foundnaoher eyes traveled overthe groupaJ'the class may forget about the trip to Washa ington, D. C. this spring.n With these fateful words the irate young history teacher left the room closing the door none too gently behind her. As the impact of the words was grasped, theroom became alive with excited and confused conversation. We wondered who had doneit. Everya onein the room except Dave Roberts could have usedtiueanswers because all made average or below average grades, but Ridgeway High was run on the honor system and things like this just didn't happen here. Paper collections, bake sales, candyandnnagazine salesaahours and hours ofliard work and planning and now, no trip! The person who took the answers would never confess! Miss Cooper reentered the room and a hush fell over the class. Is the guilty person ready to confess his guilt?W Each pupil looked expectantly around and then glanced at the teacher. There was a stir in the back1ofthe room and all eyes turno ed hurriedly to wherea tall, slena der, dark haired boy was rising slowly from the old wooden desk wherelu sat. He walked hestiu ntly to the front of the room with his head bent and his eyes on the floor. uDave Roberts, did you take the test answers from my brief case?n Dave nodded ever so slightly and Miss Cooper motioned for hin1to folf low her from the room. The next day we noticed Dave was missing butwe had expected that bee cause cheating at Ridgeway was a serious thing and the penalty was expulsion. He was a birdH for ever admittingthetheft, but thank goods ness he had because that saved our trip for us. In history class Miss Cooper bee gan the period asusual by returning our homework for correction. As she pulled the exercises from the case, a heavy folded paper fell to the floor. She picked it up hurriedly, turning pale asshe scannedit. Visia bly shaken she faced us. As you probably know, Dave Robe ertswas expelled from Ridgeway High yesterday. If he had not admitted taking the answers, you would not have been able to go on that trip, but he would still be in school. He must really have liked all of you because here is the test I thought had been stolenln QaFay Thrasher Class of 52
