In a day, in an age, in a world where unity means strength and power, we cannot afford to rely on myopic vision—that process of drawing a circle about ourselves. For we may be the center of the circle, but NEVER the circumference. Berkeley High—the students and faculty—have shown few symptoms of this myopic vision, this narrowness. Rather we have set an example for the world to follow. A large, mixed group, we live together peaceably without having to be forced into it. In our unity, we lead . . . others and ourselves. But we are not as far advanced as some might have us think. We believe that we have come a long way in our progress. We have. But the end is not yet in sight. We must continue to make bigger circles and to enlarge the ones we have already made. We have only begun. The Pod Staff has tried to capture and record our progress for you to see. We are proud of it and we hope that you will share our pride. Now may I offer to you and to the world, the product of the unity of the Pod Staff and the leadership of Mrs. Sidney Wales, the Fall 1957 Olla Podrida ... a symbol of unity and leadership.

. .. Clasp the hands and know the thoughts of men in other lands. MR. WENDELL WOODSIDE From Summit, Now Jortoy The American Field Service was organized to bring the countries of the world closer together by the exchange of high school students. A program of this type was long in becoming a success, but this last summer 724 American Students were sent abroad, and an equal number came to this country this fall. Berkeley High School participated in the A.F.S. program this year, bringing two students from abroad and sending three students to Europe. Martha Ellis lived in Finland. Walter Moore lived in Germany, and Peter Green lived in Spain. Our foreign students are Helen Colvin from New Zealand and Luigi Ostellino from Italy. Berkeley High School is only one of many schools participating in the American Field Service program bringing students from twenty countries together to exchange ideas—fulfilling the A.F.S. motto. “Walk together, talk together O' ye people of the earth, for then, and only then shall ye have peace.” BHS EXCHANGE STUDENTS. I9S7-S8. loft to right: Poto Groan. Holon Colvin. Woltor Moor . Marty Ellis. Luigi Oitollino.
