This scandal was so deeply embedded that not even those involved knew of it! I decided to get in touch with the president of the Student Council. Susan Stover, Sto-ver, and get the facts straight I might say that this interview revealed a few things! For one. we have a very insolent president who can't even recall where most of her ancestors came from! Or perhaps she is hiding something. some-thing. Could she be Iranian? She denies it. but can we trust someone who claims she is a Democrat, but endorses Ronald Ron-ald Reagan for president? She even admits that she took no action to free the American hostages! If we had a competent president, the ' hostages might be free. When asked about the allegations that rich Arabs were bribing the Student Council just to get their way in the school, she replied "no comment". Need I say more? Look for me. in the future when I shall clean up yet more middle school garbage! NOTE: This was all meant in fun. and I think Susan's- :.'.. r ' 1 . mmi.. doing a great job.

This stuffed animal at it's original size will be hung inside the building at the . en trance. ' . ?
