Linda
(Anne Alexander)
?Linda?Linda Chapan was tall, lanky and beautiful. Her father nicknamed her princess, and she had a reputation to keep even when the new guy showed up on the scene. Linda was anxious, nervous in fact when it came to the Fall Frolic- a girl?s choice dance and she wanted to be the one who asked Doug Johnson to accompany her. Dressed in Blue, and looking like a princess to boot her brother?s teased her about going to church on a school day. Would her mother please intervene? This pretty princess was part of a team, a group of girls popular by all means and she never thought once about alcohol entering the scene. One night after an intense football game she was walking down the street only to hear tires screeching, metal crunching, and if it wasn?t chilly enough already glass chattering and then the sound of angry male voices pricked her ears. ?Watch where you?re going!? Linda was still in the shadows, but she, nevertheless was seen. Brian, Steve Atkin?s best friend was leaning over the back seat of Doug?s car. The zipper on the jacket pricked her ears, and then she heard the thunk, clatter, chunk, chink, chink.? Could this be? Why would Clairamont High school football players be so mean? How could they do this to Doug? He was new and this was not a proper greeting. Even Linda?s family turns against her as her father makes a business deal with Steve Atkin?s father, the Main string football player for Clairamont. As the story unfolds Linda?s twin brothers get roughed up, her best friends stop inviting her over, and the payoff to date Steve?s friend was realized almost too late. Linda takes a joy ride in her father?s car on a school day, and is she ever in trouble! Steve?s dad wants to boss his job and everyone else, but when the secret is finally out, and Beth; Linda?s best friend gets seriously injured by Steve?s irresponsible drinking and driving habits her family takes charge, and the school does too.The question is, will you step up and do the right thing if you are ever faced with an ethical dilemma.
