Despite Reptl Although it is usually quiet in the Guidance Center, Biology teacher Al- len Volkmann finds ways to liven up the counselors' day. One of his favor- ite tricks ls to brlng snakes and hide them in Tommie Williams' desk draw- ers. Commentlng on Mr. Volkmann's actions, Mr.WiIIIams said, l dislike reptiles very much. It must be very humorous to him - that'l'm afraid of them. He went on to say, Did you know he lost one of his snakes this year? Continuing to talk, he nervous- ly eyed the floors, lt could be any- where ln this bulIding.
