I went from there to the Friends School, which was a Quaker School and a very good school. I was in the seventh grade there when the family moved out here [in 1919] and I went right from here to first year in Tamalpais High School, which was a very poor high school at that time.... I guess it was probably symptomatic of public education throughout California at that time. The standards were very, very low."
