Also, although the materials located in Booth West are inconvenient to get to, students can request these materials via e-mail or telephone and the materials will be delivered to the students.

Just log on to the Internet or make a phone call to request materials. This may require some advance planning, but in the long run, it will be easier on the students and homework may even get done a little quicker.

Bill Ruthhart Staff writer email: [email protected] Hamburgler gets sentence from Mayor McCheese here is now a whole new definition of taking one for Tthe team. Brandon Beck, a 15-year-old junior varsity football player at Collinsville High School, took several hits for his team at a practice on Sept. 2. In fact, Beck assumed the role of a human tackling dummy to spare his teammates extra punishment. He said he was tackled at least 25 times in what varsity head coach Tim Kane called a “hamburger drill.” The hamburger assault took place after Beck told Kane he kicked a set of shoulder pads. But Beck told the Associated Press that he did not actually kick the pads. So why did he volunteer to take a pounding of over 25 patty melts from his teammates? “I didn’t want the fat kids to run,” he told AP. “I figured he’d just order me to run up the hill or carry the tackling dummy up the hill, and that would be it.” Although the words “Thank you sir, may I have another,” were never uttered from his mouth, Beck ended up taking more burgers than the Hamburgler at a buffet line, and even the Hamburgler never received such a beating, even when he was stuck in McJail with Grimace, Chad Merda / Staff photographer McDonald’s large purple monster.
