A magazine feature with a sensationalist article on teacher Yankumi is out and it does not paint a pretty picture of her. She is depicted as rude, wanton and violent. The superintendent asks for her resignation as an alternative to firing her. She concedes, but her students are unhappy. They first confront the pulp reporters and then the school's administration. Yankumi is urged to be true to her ideals by her grandfather and gang.
