 Roland is preoccupied with his knowledge of Zammo s problem. Mr. Griffiths tries to catch people returning library books during the amnesty on fines, so Gonch and the other lads wind him up by carrying books around in his vicinity. The plan backfires slightly, when Mrs. McClusky tells them to write a précis on the top book in their piles. The meeting to discuss the make up of the new school newsletter seems unable to agree on the content, until Calley shows some other fanzines around. After that, a set of topics quickly get proposed, including the growing problem of smoking. Fay bumps into Mr. King, and they go for a cup of coffee to discuss the school magazine. While Mr. King is getting more coffee Laura and Julia see Fay with a burning cigarette in front of her, and jump to the wrong conclusion. Julia and Laura visit Louise Webb when she doesn t turn up at school. They find that her parents are absent, and she and her sister are having to hold the fort. Gonch goes to tell Mr. Griffiths that the school is to become a smoke-free zone - and that includes him, as he s just set fire to his cardigan!
