Stinky!” After that he begins a teasing campaign which becomes more and more unpleasant, until his other classmates also become impatient with him. Meanwhile, Judy becomes so upset emotionally that her school work suffers considerably. She refuses to tell her teacher what is wrong because she does not want to be a tattle-tale.; The climax of the situation comes when Judy says “I stink” instead of “I think” while reciting. She breaks down completely when the rest of the class laughs. Rather than offering a solution to the problem, the film raises a number of discussion questions and presents alternative courses of action. [Educational Screen, Sept 1951];
