You might call him unfair, a player of favorites, over-demanding, a sexual pervert, anything awful your overworked brain can produce, but you don't ap- preciate him. Teachers spend as much time as we do at school, sponsoring camping trips, help paint signs, advise us when we're angry or down or in trouble, build sets, direct plays, give concerts, spend free mods tutor- ing, coach sports, and most im- pressive of all-put up with fre- quent spurts of apathy, bad jokes, anger, silliness, and dullness, to name a few. fHave you ever been about to drive a relevant, deep point home when you notice fifteen pairs of glassy, semi-conscious eyes fixed on yours?l The Holland Hall faculty is not, for the most part, just a set of teachers trained to preside over us and mold us into a pre- designed shape. They could be, but they're not. They have great individuality, and allow us to have ours . . . that's very rare. Mr. Bird bounces while Messrs.

Yandell Head Of The Upper School Among the unquestionable highlights of the '74-'75 school year were the stirring sermonettes delivered by our very own Carlos B. Tuttle, a man known for his dry ioften parchedi humor. When that infamous week in February rolled around, Tuttle was there with his carefully prepared, infor- mative talks, explaining just what had happened and what the discipline committee was planning to do about it. And when a wayward volleyball felt compelled to turn in a false alarm ithe ball is still in custodyi, Tuttle was there with a calm, cool, concise fit of hysteria. As an advisor, Tuttle showed an amazing patience in the face of seniors determined to spend their last year at HH comatose or out to lunch. We'll never forget Tuttle's Fire Speech, or Tuttle's Hazing Speech, or Tuttle's l'M-NOT-MAD-AT-YOU! speech, or Tuttle's Neglected Puppies Speech, or Tuttle's There Won't Be Any More Speeches Speech. And, even if we wanted to try, we'll never forget Mr. Tuttle himself. Thomas N. Elmer Roger W. Noldt Donald L. Paige - Doyle C.

Teaching Goes Erotic juniors and seniors plowed through English literature, often wondering if they were really studying English. The classes, if taught in a public school, would probably bring in a hoard of bookburning and bawling jackasses with their torches. Nowhere but at Holland Hall could we read Lady Chatterley'5 Lover or Catcher in the Rye without shouts of eroticism from the peanut gallery. Where else could we learn about Oscar wilde-a man who strolled the streets of London tossing flowers hither and thither, dressed in ruffles and orange and pink brocade? Mr. Krieckhaus's classes are even more titillating. You learn about the original feely movies lunlike Earthquakel via Brave New World. Then they gave us a psychology test which was obviously a Sex Inhibition Test. . . Do you like your body? To top it all off, juniors and seniors were re- quired to watch a new revised form of The V.D. Film. Maybe they're trying to tell us something?? Eleanor D. Carrnack Nancy A, Caruthefg Clifford W.
