Face it. Curiosity will not cause him to dieonly lack of it will. Never to want to see the other side of the hill, or that improbable country where living is an idyll (although a probable hell) would kill us all.
Only the curious have, if they live, a tale worth telling at all.

So many different people
In the same device

How do you like to go up in a swing, Up in the air so blue?
Oh, I do think it the pleasantest thing Ever a child can do!
Up in the air and over the wall, Till I can see so wide, Rivers and trees and cattle and all Over the countryside-
Till I look down on the garden green, Down on the roof so brownUp in the air I go flying again, Up in the air and down!

Undershaft-You don't say so! What! No capacity for business, no knowledge of law, no sympathy with art, no pretension to philosophy; only a simple knowledge of the secret that has puzzled all the philosophers, baffled all the lawyers, muddled all of the men of business, and ruined most of the artists; the secret of right and wrong. Why, man you're a genius, a master of masters, a god! At twenty-four, too!

Semester break offered sixty students the opportunity to go skiing to Mammoth for four days. The group was composed of students from all four classes and chaperones. Luckily, there were no skiing injuries, although there was one hundred and forty dollars worth of damage made in their hotel by the four days, not all of which were caused by Poly The management loosened up and didn ' t charge the group for everything. Otherwise, the trip was a success. The skiing conditions were perfect: plenty of snow and shining sun. Everybody had a great time!

This year, the students have been fortunate enough to have good assemblies and a wide variety of extra-curricular activities to keep their interests alive, and cultivate inherent creativity. These scintillating experiences range from exploring the depths of typing, to developing insights into the psyches of Jefferson and Hamilton.

The Basketball teams this year proved to be very talented and enthusiastic. As a result, the J.V.s ended their season as league co-champions with Rio Hondo, while the Varsity remained undefeated to clinch their league title and reserve a berth for them in the C.I.F. playoffs. Something the team worked very hard to achieve.
EASTERN BASKETBALL TRIP
This year's J.V. and Varsity Basketball teams travelled on the first Poly Eastern Basketball Trip. The fifty players, coaches, cheerleaders and spectators stayed with families of the schools that hosted the trip: Rye Country Day, Pingry and Hackley Schools. In addition to the Basketball games, the trip was highlighted by a day in New York City and a tour of Princeton University.

By ending the season this year in second place in the Prep league, Poly advanced into the C.I.F. Soccer playoffs for the second year in a row. Their opponents, however, was Alta Lorna, a school ten times the size of Poly. While it began as a close game with Poly scoring first, our 3A opponent soon pulled away with some lucky shots on goal.
