take you a month to find your way around here so I'll guide you is this Aid in Comfort to beginning teachers you know you don't have the feeling in oh don't I I'm a hardened veteran of the classroom myself hi Mrs M when I transferred out here last year Mr donin was looking for a secretary who could fill in occasionally so I jumped at the chance to uh get out of the classroom let's say I prefer the students at a distance by by the way what did detain you Mr donin didn't say chicken FKS chicken teachers get younger every year 107 these are your enrollment cards we'll send the reading list down later thank you [Music] well well I better get back before the first day's disasters come crashing down on us I only hope I'm not one of them so do I at least I could fall back on my short hand you want a car you work for it you're going high school so you can say you're finished not to play around with those rich kids at Harrison who's rich their folks just don't what's the use boy can you ever imagine us being freshman see you P Poncho what do you think a girl has to do to lat on to something like that don't ask me if I knew do you think I'd tell you kids Brothers mine greeted the gang

crackville now look I told you when I got back we're not starting up again catching up angel better on a diet too long you better get used to it I'm going to be very busy from now on with what four guys look you're not at Conway now let's not get physical let's not stop last year you didn't mind last year I was stupid maybe I I was sorry for you when you transferred over that was charity work I know you Annie oh and I know you oh that jacket fits you perfectly a refugee from the switchblade set [Music] I haven't had a second to call you but did you hear from the dramatic schools yeah well come on give some of them have scholarships Mr huker is sure to give me a recommendation and I know that Mr Pollock at the Civic Playhouse and you don't seem very excited talk talk talk talk talk good morning I see a couple of us are missing while we're waiting oh uh excuse me sir uh this is my first day uh I I don't know the building yet neither do I I was lucky I had a guide Mr um mollis sir Rhymer Griff Rymer thank you gentleman if you'll find seats please buddy got a pencil Buck sorry Rhymer buddy mcalla he just moved down from Mil Haven this is an Gregor hi and you me Ricky I saw you at football practice last week Jim says you're terrific yeah I heard coach barar was buying some outside beef for his team I think the butcher put his thumb on the scales seat over here seems to be empty Mr Rhymer pretty close to the teacher I don't like the view well suppose you try to live with it however if you prefer to stand do it by the wall or maybe a fire drill That's My Name the course is American history 10 that's your textbook and your first week's reading assignment thank you Mr rer I'll try not to do any flag waving I think the subject speaks for itself s this is my first teaching job as you probably know that gives me an advantage over you I'll have a pretty good idea what you're up to I haven't had time to forget about when I was doing it myself or at least thinking about it since we're not going to learn any history today uh suppose we learn a little bit about each other there's nothing i' like better by the way this is my method for calling spot questions in class cut please that way no one can accuse me of neglecting him unfairly Michael Kramer yes sir Michael what's your favorite subject chemistry I guess good for you I got through it I'll never know how put down please Michelle Summers Ricky Please Mr hry all right Ricky what's yours I don't know I guess I'm pretty dumb in everything and we have a b average and almost a straight A in man well I can't help but I'm certainly not a brain I'm sorry if I gave away any of your secrets it's not rff Rymer Mr Rymer you said you were going by the cards what's it say Griff Rymer would you stand up please I know you hate to be conspicuous you know if you weren't a teacher I'd swear you stacked the deck I did so you learned something already sit down please history lesson number One never be sure of anything there's always a Joker in the deck well Mr Henry your first day go smoothly yes no difficulties on the horizon no I don't think so sir no students out of line we're not really how about this boy rhymer a high school has a buil-in grap fine I make a point of listening to it I was so trivial I thought i' handle it all right trivial I agree nevertheless I insist on being informed you have a tendency to handle things yourself it seems would you get me that letter Miss dri at our first interview I was so impressed with you I decided to give you a trial your academic record was excellent your attitude seemed to be sound however I afterward wrote the principal of the school where you did your student teaching I see would you care to see his reply in some ways it's most complimentary I don't suppose you'd like to hear my side of that it's obvious your classroom duties didn't satisfy you look I went to bat for a couple of kids because I thought I could straighten them out I still do and other words you became sentimental about individual problem cases individual kids I managed to get very close to them that make you more objective it's not easy for a teacher to be objective if he thinks kids at all somebody has to be I'm not going back on my decision to take you on Henry I just want to make it clear how we operate Harrison is a superior school it always has it I know it's ratings sir and I'm fighting to keep it that way and it isn't easy some of our transferred students are coming from schools that are practically vestibules of the juvenile detention home it seems to me those are the very ones you could help the most 99% of our student body are decent and hardworking it's my job to protect them what about the other 1% they're troublemakers I don't waste much time getting rid of them you're just bouncing back to the vestibules that's why we have a rule at Harrison and case of discipline or maladjustment is immediately referred to me it doesn't leave much up to the individual teacher judgment does it I can't afford to we're a long way from the Little Red Schoolhouse a teacher here is paid to teach not to be a psychiatrist a social worker or a pal Mr donlin if you want us to stay in watertight compartments why don't we just beam in our classes by remote control Mr Henry I don't understand uh you wanted to be at the board meeting by 4:30 and uh seeing as how Mr Henry just arrived today I'm sure he has a lot of unpacking to do oh yes of course I won't need anything more today MRI thank you Henry I hope you'll be able to fit into the pattern so do I it was nice blocking don't expect me to do it again I make a point of not sticking my neck out I got to take some lessons they going to give you a lift anywhere you sure I'm the one who needs the lift I promise not to cry on your shoulder well think of the bus Fair I'll say give me a few minutes to repair the damages hi John oh coach this is Mr Henry history in Civics alar

with an aunt and uncle of mine you went through that when you took the place I tried to visit him every chance I could but isn't Eric is it I didn't get off to a very good start he'll get over it if you do right now he doesn't like his Uncle Neil very much but he's crazy about the one in here [Music] Eric do you know what a man does when he's made a jerk of himself he faces up to it he admits he was wrong and he tries to start all over again [Applause] [Applause] we hey why don't you two have dinner over at Mrs wellenberg with me because we weren't asked that's why you're the popularity kid around here okay boy PPS you had a lot of books no taking Eric to the game meant a lot to him getting you to go meant a lot to me football isn't much fun for you is it Neil Mr barer told me what feeling sorry for myself no I was going pretty strong my second year at state things were different after the automobile accident left me with a bad knee golden boys get tarnished pretty quickly once they're dented I can see why you hate to remember it do you my brother and his wife were killed in the accident I'm sorry I was driving they'd come up especially to see me play it was a hard game maybe my reflexes weren't right you can't blame yourself for something like that why it isn't as though you I still owe Erica a father my aunt and uncle took good care of him it isn't the same not that I could ever hope to replace a man like my brother he was a teacher wasn't he yeah he's a principal of the high school in our hometown he only had about 400 students but he knew every one of them and he did something for each of them one way or another Neil you can't be your brother and Harrison has over a thousand students and over a thousand rules do everybody hate them as much as I do rules are made to protect the teachers too I only wish I'd had them in the if you want to stay at Harrison want to not more than that right now I only have temporary custody of Eric after my little misund understanding with student teaching the court didn't think my future in the school system look very stable maybe they're right The Boy Deserves some kind of security see you didn't believe me I don't know what's the matter with you Mulla we squeezed by last week but no thanks to you I'll try the bootleg play wellow finally got you down here yeah I was blackm I still don't believe you Uncle Neil tell him what Mulla did wrong in a bootleg play oh thinking of taking up coaching Mr Henry don't pay any attention to my nephew strictly hands off good we have a pretty fair sta we'll manage all right now let's get it again this time and let's do Mr Henry buddy I'm sorry to keep you from football practice but if you don't get some of that reading oh it's not that look I heard your nephew the other day and I thought well it it is the bootle play I'm goofing on all right I I just thought if you could tell me something that would help I'd appreciate buddy I'm a history teacher as Mr donin would say that's not my province you'll hit your stride football isn't that important well how can you say that I mean he you used to play you know how much help it can be I want to do things someday prove I'm something I've got to I guess that sounds pretty silly no not at all what would you really like to be buddy I don't know yet I couldn't even swing College if I don't get a really good athletic scholarship living expenses in and all mom sure I can't do anything more that just the two of you yeah my father died before I can remember I wish I could beat my mother though she's great never complains Never by the places she's had to work must have been awful for a woman like her that wasn't true what I said about my father we don't know whether he's dead or not he just walked out I just thought someday I could make it up to buddy get up you know something we got a lot in common size weight let me show you something you're tipping your m to the opposing team you're swinging out too soon you've got to hold your fi to the Half Back by staying on this lead foot two counts longer Fu not look when you're set that's like I'm not giving you much help oh no you have M Andrew you have now look around that's it exactly wiening your horizons Mr Henry he he didn't want to show me sir I I just asked him that's all right buddy wasn't anything sir it seemed to be affecting his school work I hope coach Kerrick appreciates it perhaps he'll reciprocate by teaching history [Applause] [Music] [Applause] come [Applause] [Music] [Applause] [Music] on hey buy I'm here [Music] [Applause] hey Penny just wait till I tell my folks that I've been invited to the Honor Society dance they'll flip oh big deal every senior's invited I hear Mr Henry talk them into it after they had elected him chaperon he can chaperone me anytime hey Jim as president of the Honor Society how about a statement for the Hornet sure is it true Mr Henry made you change the rules he didn't make us he suggested it now get that straight our officers had another meeting and we decided he was right what about the oddball Mr Henry feels some of them might straighten out if we meet them halfway besides he said we weren't being very Democratic oh did he oh hi statement to the Press can I quote you like that Jim sure are you going to the dance with Mr Henry I haven't been invited oh he'll ask you all right you do her a thing you'll say yes won't you well now I wouldn't be very Democratic if I refused would I see Mr Henry I'll round up our boys we'll take care of these Conway punks Kramer we're not going to let them stamped us that's probably all they want anyway put a couple of men on this door one on the other one tell them not to sound off about how Brave they are know that spoiling the dance for everybody else right one more thing let me know the minute it looks like they're ready to make a move and then and and then we'll see what happens yes sir you know in the South Seas Hunters shrink heads and we them well yours is already shrunk so I guess this will have to do [Music] [Applause] [Music] hey Griff gotten kind of fancy since you left Conway huh I got good connections I mean if

rules remember so i b a few of them but I didn't break any not yet that's only part of it first it was Buddy and then the others and now Griff Neil you can't give so much of yourself to these kids why you think I'm taking anything away from Eric he loves the guys buddy Mcall is teaching him how to play football I knew you wouldn't listen look I've heard of doctor's wives hating the patient I am not jealous of your friendship with the students I'm afraid of it for you and for me you're going to get hurt and I can't stop you but if I let myself love you let yourself you can't play that by the rules oh can't I I've had stars in my eyes too I lost them the hard way I don't intend to go through that again again do you know why I left teaching oh I wish I did I knew a teacher very much like you once Jerry loved his students fought for them and refused to believe that there was anyone who couldn't be helped if you tried hard enough he was always so happy when one of them seemed to be responding one day a 14-year-old girl was attacked in the school Carter by one of his successes the next morning they found Jerry in the courtyard he' Fallen it was a four-story building is so you came out of here have shell will travel but you can't live inside of it forever if you do you wind up shutting everybody out I have to it's safer isn't it and lonelier look Neil we've been friends and I like to keep it that way I know that isn't very much to offer and I greedy I'll take it because I don't think you could change any more than I could I'll be waiting for you to find it [Music] out

[Music] budny budy some teacher found him after the fight was all over I guess Griff's too banged up to talk much he's uh supposed to be up and around today though that Griff's a great kid would think he had an enemy in the world fine my boy gets beat half to death and you let the guy that did it get away SC free I bet the police can find him soon enough that's exactly why I didn't report him until I heard his side his side Griff can tell you what happened go on I've already heard your son Mr rmer no I didn't do a thing to him not a thing just bumped him on the stairs accidentally he was like a crazy man just like that you didn't say anything you see I told you he'd stick up for aulla none of them ever wanted me here they don't think I'm good enough for them what kind of school you running here anyhow a good one I hope it's been a long time since the Harrison student was involved with the police Mr ryers agreed not to press charges on condition I take immediate action when the mull boy is located there'll be a formal hearing to expel him until that time you can consider yourself under sus ension does that satisfy you Mr R well I guess so nothing like this better happen again come on gri does that satisfy you Griff I regret this Henry but you took a great deal upon yourself look I took a chance because there's a great deal at stake mall has had a severe emotional shock if this thing isn't handled right the school board maintains a psychiatrist for those cases Rhymer isn't telling the whole truth whatever Malla did it must have been after provocation very great provocation what makes you so sure my knowledge of the two boys and I'm not being one bit objective you're risking a great deal on your judgment more than you know suppose it proves to be right I still wouldn't approve your actions I still wouldn't approve your rules well it looks like you're going to teach history until they find a replacement any of the boys call in Jim Trent no sign a budy yet Neil Mr Donan still might reconsider if you'd promised this wouldn't happen again and apologize to Mr Rymer what ADM he's right let him [ __ ] Buddy's whole life what about you and your life what about Eric Eric who else do you think I'm doing this for if I back down now I could probably keep him with me but he' lose all respect for everything I ever taught him either I lose him or he loses faith in me which is more important he going to spend a few days at my aunts I saw him and Mrs wellenberg off at the station this morning I like you Mr Henry you know something that could make up for a [Music] lot oh Evelyn hold a good thought is Griff still here miss Dietrick I found this book on the floor after they took him away Saturday gory isn't [Music] it my book um maybe i' better run along don't go the librarian said you check this out Saturday morning you must have dropped it on your way up to the rehearsal I never got to the school till afterwards I had an errand yes you told Mr Henry what errand a girl screamed she'd run away before Mr Henry could see her it might have been a girl in the orchestra it wasn't I checked if there's anything to be said on Buddy's side that girl is the only one who can help him now I don't know what you're talking about leave me out of it I wanted to stay out of things too I can't well I'm sorry but why tell me when the chips are down you learn things about yourself I love Neil Henry the chips are down now an for you too an are you still trying on your costume for that silly play is that all you've got to think about when I'm lying here in a minute mother well don't be too long I want my yes mother oh now do you see why I've got to get out of here it wasn't my fault she wouldn't believe me nobody'd believe me do you think that I'd get a recommendation From Any teacher if they knew that if they know what all right if you're sure that's what you want now for five minutes of the local news the two men who attempted a warehouse hold upville are still at large good where the injured Watchman was able to describe you get the police are the wounded man and His companion have not been able to leave the general area The Watchman was also sure a third man was involved as the driver of the getaway car this led police to believe that an abandoned stolen truck found near the warehouse was used in the attempted holdup and that the Escape driver as yet what's going on in here what do you think you're doing those it look like I'm doing I'm walking yeah what I said I'm walking you can't stop me doing some kind of a jam yeah there's some creeps around here who feel like killing me is that jam enough for you oh stop clowning you scared of those Harrison guys my son the S cuz you put the finger in their pet huh stuck up high and mighty snobs well you don't have to be afraid of them nobody's going to Rouse my son for telling the truth oh shut up what do you know if I told the truth I'd be the one getting chucked out of school not them what after I went over there this afternoon you let me why not what do I owe you go slug me you've hit me before you and your big hands and your tight fists you don't care what happens to me you never did care you had yourself a great big ball this afternoon huh you were a big man well you're [Music] nothing those guys were the only ones that ever tried to be nice to me my whole life and when was I ever your son till I gave you a chance to to sound off today [Music] [Music] [Music] hello buddy Jim told me about Mr Don look don't worry about it you didn't ask me to stick my neck out did you hear Griff's side yeah if that's what they want to believe fine let him look so it wasn't right all right all it takes is a telephone call Mr Don will meet us at the school there's nothing I can say I did it I don't care I saw you you were sick to your stomach the minute you came to your senses it was like it wasn't me like somebody else inside my buddy not me yes it was Buddy look it's always a shock to find out that there's another side to the people we know or we love the closer we are the greater the shock what you did was wrong nothing's going to change that but there reasons there are always reasons it doesn't change the part of you I have known buddy look we don't love people because they're perfect if we did he'd soon find out there'd be nobody to love at all try to remember that the next couple of minutes buddy please I'm not going to ask you for anything not to forgive me or I heard Mr Henry I don't have any reasons not good ones oh sometimes you get scared you get lonely you want to forget what that's no excuse if I'd been a decent mother it doesn't matter about me you're the one you you had such plans but don't stop caring what happens to you because I A is Buddy here yet Jim said that you found him he and his mother are inside they had a lot to talk about so have I to Mr donin this dri was right when the chips are down you find out a lot of things about yourself come on poor an keep keeps thinkinking so do I if it were you in guess I know what my father was trying to tell me now we've been lucky haven't we [Music] Jim parents are

much to learn I learned something tonight now I'm sure it's real I love you Ricky and look we can still have fun don't have to be serious all the time this is certainly a different story than I heard this afternoon well if my old man doesn't like it it's his tough luck I uh it was all my fault and most guys would have killed me Henry Rhymer just made a very remarkable statement and you don't have to say anything now you mean call her going away present oh so maybe some of the ACT did rub off I got a bust to catch so long Henry it it seems I almost made a very grave mistake excuse me sir R good
