Synopsis: When Don sees Bob return to the empty locker room and take
something from another boy’s locker, he assumes that Bob is stealing. In-
stead of talking to Bob or to the principal, he mentions the episode to some
classmates and all but one agrees that Bob was stealing. Although the
classmates promise Don that they will be quiet about the incident, one of
them finally tells the principal. In the discussion that follows, with the
principal and the students, Don finds that he had merely put two incidents
together and decided that Bob had stolen. It was found that Bob actually
had not stolen anything, but had merely returned to the locker room to get
a whistle which one of the other players left in his locker. Analyzes students’ understanding of honesty, showing that they don’t have much trouble with simple honesty, but in some situations, where honesty is a much deeper problem, complications arise.
