Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and everyone that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him .
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation of our sins .

Director of Upper School
Dawn Cobb: I think the students and I relate well because we don't have any courses to hassle over and they don't have to hand in any hornework. Are the students sheltered? I don ' t think so, but the school shouldn ' t stamp you outdo your free things in your own way. What I like best about this school is the responsibility it puts on youngsters to develop to the best of their ability. I think if I weren't a teacher I would like to work for a book publisher. Administrative Asst.
Alexander Babcock: The boys? a very mixed bag. Are the students sheltered? Some certainly are. That ' s one of the big problems this school has to work on to prevent this school from becoming an island. The best thing about school? I think I like the friendliness. Teaching here . is a lot of fun from a teacher ' s point of view. We get all the rewarding parts of teaching without all the messy parts-like having a lot of kids who aren't suited for the courses. math, ecology club
Willis Stork: Trend in teachers' marriages? I think it ' s very wholesome. What is your opinion of Poly girls? The best; the greatest. The boys? I'd put them right behind the girls. Do you think Poly students are too sheltered? Somewhat, but I think it's improving through community involvement. What do you like most about this school? I think the wonderful people both students and facutly. What would you be if you weren't a headmaster? I think I'd prefer just being a teacher.

Anne Moses: like best at school the inform ali ty-gener al ideas fly around, people come and go. Teaching here It's fun, but hard work. It exhausts me and gives me energy -it's demanding. If I weren't a teacher I've been a housewife for as long as I can · stand. I've always wanted to act, but I don't know if I'd make it. Favorite recreation reading yearbook proofs. English, Oakleaves advisor
a.forty-eight
Charles Peterson: Trend of' the teacher's marriages . . . definitely detrimental to the education-teachers formerly bothered by tensions of no date now don't have those tensions. The girls I didn't know there were any plans of going co-ed. Relating with students .. . we talk seriously. I'm not related to any of my students. English, soccer, Nonesuch and junior class advisor.
John M ariey: Trend of teachers' marriages (giggle, giggle) It tas really stepped up, it's natural. Like best at school my fan on a hot day. Teaching here: unpredictable. f I weren ' t a teacher, I'd be a money-maker. English deJt. head, golf club
Joy Partidge: Are the students sheltered? They are not too heltered now, but I'd hate to see them go to a small cdlege. Teaching here is demanding, exciting, tme-consuming, a pleasant experience. If I weren't :1 teacher, I ' d be a doctor. English, cooking club
Johannes Hageman: The students here are very nice; they their own personalities, and are not just followers. How do I relate with them? Ask the students. I enjoy teaching here-l've always enjoyed teaching. Here you have freedom to enjoy yourself and apply yourself. If I weren't a teacher, I would probably be an engineer. Music is one of my hobbies-l'm directing a choir. I like to go out hiking or bicycling or swimming. math dept. head, computer programming club
Candis Ipswitch: What do you think of the girls very seldom. What do you think of the boys here? Are there any? The students aren't sheltered by Poly, but are by other elements . . . Best part of teaching here recess. How about the social life? Social life? What would you be if you weren ' t a teacher? Happy! math, creative stitchery club
Philemon Theodorou: Trend of teachers' marriages . .. It was inevitable! Boys what boys? I thought this was a girls ' school. Students too sheltered? I don't know; in a quick census I'd say 70% of Poly students come from houses with 3600 square feet or more. Like best at school . friendliness and cooperative students. Teaching here .. . Shangri-La. Social life of students ... easy come, easy go. Favorite recreation indirect proofs How do you and students relate I don't know who's boss, but they know who ' s boss. math, chess club, sophomore class advisor forty-nine
Daniel Tonn: The Poly student isn't at all sheltered-burning lockers and causing trouble is not a way to get involved How do the students relate? Different-ha, ha. The boys and girls relate like brothers and sisters-you don't date your sister. I would like to be a cabinet-maker or a track bum if I weren't a teacher. physics, physical science
Michael Klayman : I like the freedom best at this school. Teaching here it ' s a challenge because the students are so bright, and if I blow it they'll tell their parents, who are professors at Cal tech, and I'll hear about it the next day . If I weren ' t a teacher , I ' d be a chef. chemistry , cooking club
James Macnab: Boys (silence) They ' re nice and wholesome. How do you and students relate? We relate by talking. Teaching here it ' s a challenge. Public schools are no challenge. I have to study at nights to keep ahead of the students. If I weren ' t a teacher I'd work at national parks and travel. science dept. head, biology, ornithology club, bowling club
George Moses : Current teachers' marriages It's pretty interesting-something else to talk about. What I like best here is that the teacher has complete academic freedom. The students .. . do they have a social life? If the students have to ask me, it must be pretty bad. history dept. head, typing, senior class and Imagery advisor
Roger Ipswitch: Current trend of teachers ' marriages I think it indicates that either teaching at Poly is a poor means of sublimating one's sex drives or else Poly teachers have extraordinarily intense sex drives that transcend both teaching and marriage. I leave you to decide which applies to each faculty member. Like best at Poly .. the chance to teach religion to a bunch of agnostics . What's it like to teach here? Biblically speaking, like tossing pearls before swine . history, Orange Bull and freshman class advisor.
Sarah Hall : Students too sheltered? From what? Like best at school Gosh, that ' s a real toughy -the fact that ,I ' m always allowed to be myself . Teaching here Bubble, bubble, toil, trouble , hassle, hassle, hassle. If I weren't a teacher . I can think of many answers, none of which I can say here, so I ' ll say gardening. librarian, history
Robert Catania: Are the students too sheltered? Considering the fact that the biggest emotional crisis in a Poly student ' s life is whether to go skiing or sailing on their vacation, I would say their decadent, bourgeois life style is disgustingly sheltered. Students' social life . . . between listening to the leaves photosynthesize on the lawn and watching parking meters on Colorado Blvd., I'd say the Poly social life is very swinging. If I weren't a teacher, I would be a politician running for Congress; or I'd be a race hor·se. history, informal sports club
Clara Eberhart : Marriage is great; after nineteen years I recommend it. Teaching at Poly is a challenge; it's stimulating as a person. I'm a mother with five children. I don't need anything else to do; if I'm not teaching here, I'm teaching at home. Spanish
Rer:ee Geary: Girls ... I love them. They are wonderful. Boys . . . They are tops. Sheltered life? No, they know when to come out of the rain if they have to. Like best at school . . . the friendliness. Teaching here . . . It's the best place to teach- I don ' t mean to be Pollyanna . If not teacher . . I ' ve never thought of anything but being a teacher. (It ' s a little late now anyway.) French dept. head
Patricia Wick hem: The girls Well , they ' re fine young ladies as far as I can tell. The boys (prompt me-What am I supposed to say?) . . . Well, they ' re fine young men. If I weren't a teacher ... I ' d be an archaeologist. Like best I like the atmosphere-freedom to do what we want; you aren ' t hassled. Latin, Latin club
Mary Langstaff: Relation with students Well, I think we relate quite well -perhaps, I'm not the one to say. If I weren't a teacher, I'd be a secretary. I was an executive secretary to a Congressman during the War. It's really exciting. Recreation dancing and knitting. Like best at school the students. French, G.S.L. advisor
Roland Haugh: The girls ... I like them very much. They ' re a combination of "you're with it" and what older people want to see. What I like best at this school is the challenge. The kids are intelligent and have as many gimmicks as students in other schools. If I weren't a teacher ... I'm a frustrated musician (a cello player). My playing was interrupted by having a school in Cuba. I'd also like executive work. Spanish
Marion Nieuwstadt: What do you like best about Poly? That lovelysmelling lemon tree next to the entrance of the study hall in the main building Students' social life It is not relevant what a teacher thinks about the students' social life. What the student himself thinks about it is far more important! It's his life! My two favorite recreations involve two parts of my body : hands: some sorts of creative activities; feet: hiking and backpacking in California's mountains. French
Francis Wass: The girls they're better than before because they're more relaxed. Like best at this school It's a pleasant place. If I weren't a teacher I'd be a farmer. Favorite recreation I don't have one favorite. I like gardening, classical concerts, and hiking. ; German, Latin

You watch the ball rolling carefully in front of you, A few light taps, and then You slip your foot underneath the ball And with a powerful thrust to the left, You let it go.
Sailing, gliding , upwards spinning, an arc
Against the sky, soaring, then falling, falling slowly, Then crashing, a well-placed shot
A thundering whine, and then it is Pushed above the goal
By the wind
Or maybe by the sudden gasp That comes across the air.
" Almost, almost. Maybe next time .. . "
You wait for a second chance
To control the flight of the balL And maybe next time
You'll be able to see it soar
Above the heads of the other players And crash into the goal.
You will wait for the chance To send the ball flying , flying Off into the sky, Where it will fly free, and true.
Freedom.

Eulogy for Phil Guess
"And should a Golden dove pass in front of you in the morning sunlight, reach for it, for it may never pass that way again."
Looking backward, We can say that, Can't we We once knew him, All of us . And We still do.
The shining brown eyes
Looked out at you with an inquisitive glance; Time would pass with these eyes, They would reflect the laughter and the storms of the times With every glance at life around them .
That face, the face that looked at you In the afternoon sun, Ready to tell you something more About what was going to happen In the world around you.
Amid the struggling grunts and heavy breathing Of the football huddle, He waited in the group, listening To the foolish arguments Of the other players. Tired, worn, he persisted In reaching for a Golden dove That hovered above. He used to run
On every play, Run faster and faster
Down the sidelines, Straight arms shooting out the back, Legs struggling pushing The soft turf below them, As though he was going to catch The Golden dove.
And who would throw the ball to him? He struggled, ran, waited patiently, And returned to the huddle emptyhanded.
Each time he returned, he waited In the sweat-ridden mass of breathing pads As voices clamored for the chosen play . And what was his play, The one he never told us?
On the soccer field, The ball would be furiously sliding, Rolling, skidding Toward the opponents' goal. Before it could be stopped, He was there, forcing his legs Into the frenzy, stretching His whole self in an effort To connect with the ball.
More than once did he reach out And score his goal-
As he resumed his place in line again, He kept a small smile on his face Maybe it was a way of telling us how he played.
A passerby on the street,
A standout on the field,
A small sports car,
A motorcycle,
A tennis racquet,
A flip of the hand and His hair was off his forehead . He walked across the courtyardSetting his book on the table, He joined his friends in a lively conversation And added gestures to his word companions.
These and other remnants of a conversation
Ah, what do we know of another's life
In so short a time we have to look at it?
Around us whirl the twirling visions of another day, And we are lucky if we can hear a voice
Of someone softly speaking something in our ear.
In the forest,
A tree was stretching to the sun, Its crusted bark a monument to the ages, The moss clinging to it in a shaded array. The tree reached out above the forest · And captured the gleaming rays Of the beginning sunrise.
Before it fell,
The tree was a living example Of the strength and truth of the forest.
Now,
The tree lies on the soft, fertile turf, Freshly fallen, Its young leaves still sprouting A Golden dove
Sits on one of its branches
And sings a song of lament.
As silver notes float throughout the air, And climb the beams of sunlight
That peer onto the forest floor, The music rests on forest branches And renovates the leaves.
Capturing the tune of the mornful dove, The wind embraces falling leaves. And travels to the sea
Assailing mountain, valley, cloud and stream A solemn song serenades the land.
But, before the song has traveled far, The Golden dove arises from the forest floor And circles below the fiery sun
In such a joyous fashion, Singing,
"Arise, arise, and don't be sad, The forest is rejoicing!
Today a new tree is born, For yesterday held the old tree, And today is for the new tree, And he shall live forever, Because the forest plays his notes, Because the Golden dove sings his song, And the people carry his tune in their hearts! Arise, arise, and don't be sad, The forest is rejoicing!"
The Golden dove Circles higher and higher, Spreading its happy song With its flashing wings Into the radiant sun
And there is a softly spoken voice Coming from somewhere over there, saying, "Phil Guess is really a pretty gooci guy."
