Rulers Do the rules and rulers of Klein measure up? Some people sa y they do, but others . . . rom the twelve inch measuring sticks to the six foot lawmakers, rulers have come to be known around Klein. They are used in a variety of subjects from math to drafting. I think some of the rules could be changed because they are too strict, but if they do what they're supposed to do, I guess that's what counts, said Kevin Collins, senior. The rules that affect the students the most are those passed down through House Bill 72. One of the new rules affecting students this year is that the exemption policy is no longer in effect. Another rule is students are not allowed to be ab- sent for more than five days each semester to participate in extra cur- ricular activities. The most prevalent change is the new grading scale that now readsg 93-100 is an A 70-76 is a D 85-92 is a B 69 and below is an F. 77-84 is a C Christi Bond crops a photo for the Bear- chat.

38 Pencils Pencils I 'm sure glad pencils grow on trees because I use a lot of them, said Steven Zeiller, freshman. re you tired of pens that won't work and ink blotches on papers? Many people were, so they switched to a more practical writing tool - the pencil. For classes like World Geography and Art, the pencil was helpful because students could create with one end and correct with the other. We've all used pencils since grammar school days, whether they were fat or thin, red or yellow or even some with designs such as alligators and bears. Without a pencil l'd have to start a lot of things over because I make many mistakes, said Anna Medford, sophomore. My hat is off to the person who invented the pencil!
