- While Miss Landers is away sick, Mr. Willet, the assistant principal, is teaching her class. During his regular afternoon discussion period, he has been telling stories of World War II. Kids like Judy and Gilbert tell of family members who had important ranks and/or responsibilities in the war. Not wanting to be left out, Beaver, not knowing his father's rank or what he actually did in the war, pipes up that his father was a war hero, Beaver knowing because of all the war memorabilia he has in a trunk in the garage. Mr. Willet suggests to Beaver that he bring in some of his father's less dangerous war items for show-and-tell. When Beaver and Wally look through their dad's trunk, all they find are surveying and drafting tools, with nothing exciting like guns or grenades. Although they try, Beaver and Wally know that they will not be able to fabricate anything convincingly. Ward may actually become Beaver's real life hero in getting Beaver out of this predicament.—Huggo
