Should Beaver have been sent to Miss Thompson (Anne Loos), the school nurse? He wasn't sick; it wasn't a medical emergency. Shouldn't Miss Landers have told Beaver to quit fooling with the ring, pay attention to the lesson, and try to get the ring off at home? Miss Landers' students missed valuable learning time while she fussed over Beaver and that ring. Tsk.

BTW, what do school nurses do all day anyway?
