Page 25 text:

jim frm. A yearbook is, in all reality, a memory book. Sometime in the future as you take your '49 Elm from the shelf, blow the dust from its cover, and turn the pages, your thoughts will return to the time when you were a student at San Mateo High School. As you open the book, you will see pictures of the school building, so strange to a freshman and so familiar to the upperclassman. The pictures of the faculty will remind you of the many times those same teachers gave you extra advice and guidance. The familiar faces of the student body officers will call to mind election campaigns, assem- blies, and meetings of Ex-board, A.G.S. and A.B.S. representatives. The sports section will bring back the many times you either participated in a sport on a Bearcat team, or cheered for that team from the stands. lt will also recall rallies, the cheer- leaders, and the school song, Orange and Black. The social candids will bring nostalgic mem-- ories of the many times you planned, decorated, and then attended school dances and other events with your best date, The pictures of the oranizationse.-Band, Glee. C.S.F., lunior Statesmen, Footlighters, Hi-Staffe will remind you of the fun you had planning activities with these various groups. Then . . . the senior section. As you look at the faces of your friends, you remember them, their mannerisms, their nicknames, and most of all, the good times you had with them, both in and out of school. All this and much more is brought to you by your yearbook, the Elm. lt is a key to your memories and is a treasured possession of all alumni. ,.--.:':-,.......- BETTY HOWAT Editor ,,.-vr '- MM STAFF FIRST right: Wallace.

Mr. Brose CProfJ and Mr. Campagna CDukeD have done marvelous jobs with the Senior and Iunior bands. The bands participated in two Portola Festival Paradesy gave superior performances in the annual contest held at San Iosey marched at all school football games: did a wonderful job of representing the Montana band at the Stanford-Montana football game, and gave their annual concerts. Mr. Dunn also has had a big job directing a 29 piece orchestra, a lOO voice choir, plus an A Cappella. An operetta is one of the annual events of the chorus. At Christmas time, the chorus caroled at the different hospitals, and during the Portola Festival Week, they gave a top-notch performance before a capacity audience.
