AOMfllNlflSTIRATIOINI Along with discussions of future voca- tions and education, our administration, all counselors, talked to pupils about family problems and co-operated with city officials for the betterment of Pacific ' s teen-agers. It offered students who had had difficulty at Pacific a new chance by letting them at- tend Redlonds or San Bernardino High Schools. Our administration often came in contact with parents through organizations such as Kiwanis and the Y.M.C.A. Besides representing Pacific and other California high schools on the 10-man cur- riculum board, Dr. Bailey kept up Pacific ' s public relations by teaching at several of Carifornia ' s outstanding colleges. Over one-half of his time was expended on fac- ulty observation and appraisal. Dr. Bailey and our vice-principals were all members of the California Association of Secondary Sc hool Administrators and the State Board of Education. 22 Besides outlining the clay ' s work for office assis- tant Carolyn demons, Mrs. Boettcfier talked to fier about future plans, additional education, possible careers, and the way to achieve her goals in life. Consulting often in Dr. Bailey ' s office, Mr. Brickley and Dr. Bailey discussed possible solutions to campus problems. The beautiful rug, given to Dr. Bailey by Student Council, enhanced the decor of this office. I

RELAXING. . . with a cup of coffee or preparing assign- ments, members of the faculty frequented the woorkroom. Air conditioning, which they purchased themselves, increased the pleas- ure of composing tests on summer days. CONDUCTING. . . class discussions, instructors attempted to have each pupil participate. They encour- aged individual effort and interest in the courses and urged students to come to them with any questions or problems. PARTICIPATING. . . in Pacific activities, most teacherssponsored one or more clubs and joined students in the turmoil and gaiety of designing and building Football Homecoming floats. ENJOYING. . . games, dances and other student pastimes, the teaching staff reflected school spirit and enthusiasm. They spent a great deal of their own time to train and improve groups in sports, music, speech and drama. Our teachers signed in as members of the P.T.A. at a September luncheon. Attend- ing a Faculty Wives luncheon that same week, they met new faculty members. Last fall, they dined and danced attheHesperia Country Club. San Bernardino ' s Faculty Wives, at their Cotton Ball, raised scholar- ship money for three children of teachers. On the last day of school, Pacific ' s faculty lunched out together, enacted skits, and presented silly gifts to teachers who were planning to leave the school system.
