The date was May 24. 1943, and something happened that changed the lives of hundreds of students. William Bouch came into this world and the world would never be the same. Mr. Bouch has been teaching Drama, English, reading, and directing the school plays here at Mt. Pleasant for the past 19 years. No student that has been taught by him will ever forget his teaching style. Mr. Douch can best be described as a cross be- tween C ytano de Bergerac and Gen. George 5. Patton. both republicansf Young Billy Bouch and his family moved to San Jose and livedjust down the street from Mt. Pleasant an Markingdon Ave. He was taught by the nuns at St. John Vionney gram- mar school and was in the Hrst graduating class f6o Vikingsj. Then he studied at Bellar- mine and afterwards spent 2 years in the seminary at St. Joseph's College. Mr. Douch graduated from Santa Clara University with his teaching credential, a major in English, and a Masters in Reading. What does Mr, Douch do outside ofschool? He enjoys the outdoors and loves to fish and camp. He also acts in community theater and works out at the Nautilus Spa. Mr. Bouch has also raised a family of two children. Jean, 16 years old who attends U.C. Berkeley, and Will, 17 years old who attends Aptos High School. His future plans are to retire to his San Luis Obispo ranch with his wife, Becky. All of us on the yearbook staff are honored to dedi- care the 1965 Yearbook to William Bouch. If Cyrano had known you, he would have said. Bring him giants! f' 1 Dedication 15
