Who Was Your Favorite Teacher?

Most inspirational, George Fowler for his boxing prowess, helping students in physical fitness and staying in touch during my decades as a Fullerton Police Officer. Also Coach Jim Bush, although he turned against me in 1952 when I assaulted Coach Joe Merlow in front on 250 students in the bleachers on Pow Wow day with a water balloon and a squirt gun. I apologized to Coach Merlow 57 years later by telephone shortly before he passed on. He was about to turn 90 and i was 70.
