McAllister Managing Editors: Tony Munoa, Deanne Kendall The Science Building is the main attraction for many of the students. DELAWARE CAMPUS The Delaware Campus, including about 30 acres of land, houses science, math, engi- neering, architectural drawing, photography, and shops classes. Busses take the students to and from the other campus, and the hurry and scurry to “make the bus”’ will be some- thing that alumni will long remember. Both buildings are used extensively by day and evening classes. The Shops Building offers facilities for training in specialized fields of work. Se ee ek Be einer, One ik id The Coyote Point Campus, on the shore of San Francisco Bay, is beautifully located in a grove of trees, and is a mile from the Delaware Campus. Here the students at- tend classes in buildings put up for a Mer- chant Marine school. Here are located numerous classrooms, the library, the main offices, the cafeteria, the Student Union, the gyms, pool, and athletic field. Here, too, memory will long linger on the walks to and from the parking lot by the beach, the beautiful gates, and the views of yacht harbor and the golf course and mountains. This 30-acre campus is the heart of the College. 1M i Mi i et | th The Library where we study... COYOTE POINT CAMPUS ti 3h . a view through the grove of trees. RITES � eo This We Remember .. .

BOARD OF TRUSTEES Year in and year out public spirited citizens have served the College on the Board of Trustees, and the Trustees pictured above are carrying on the work that the first Board started back in 1922. Since then, many men and women have carried on the College work, giving freely of their time and efforts to help build a College that has grown in importance here on the Peninsula and in the entire two-year college field. Businessmen, doctors, lawyers, and housewives have served, some for one term, some for several terms, and some for a number of years. Many names well known here in the Bay area appear on the minute books of the Board meetings. The progress of the College requires willing workers on the College Board, for each generation of students sees the College faced with problems that must be solved and routine work that must be done. And on through the years there will be men and women willing to work for the College, the community, and the larger surrounding area that, more and more, is served by the College of San Mateo.

Bortolazzo, District Superintendent and President, came to College of San Mateo in the fall of 1956. Previously, he had taken his advanced work at Harvard, he had taught school, served in the Navy, been principal and superintendent of grammar and high schools, and then president of Stockton Col- lege. At once he tackled the problem of the divided campus here, and, as THE CaMPUs goes to press, he looks ahead with optimism to the overcoming of the campus problem in this ‘““Year of Decision.” Sheesh doen = 9% Or et a DR. JULIO L. BORTOLAZZO District Superintendent and President PRESIDENT BORTOLAZZO Dr. Bortolazzo has become well acquainted with the faculty and students. In his attendance at student social affairs and games, he has become noted for being an outstanding Bulldog rooter. Here he greets two students at the start of the fall term.

With shining armor and a new hope, the College of San Mateo Bulldogs looked toward a new season of pigskin thrills. Coaches Jesse Freitas and Joe Ferem, a newcomer from Carlmont High, were optimistic as they viewed the training session at Coyote Point but were uncertain of what this untested, green eleven would do come game time against LA Valley. Showing very well against a superior southland club, the Bulldogs managed to contain the Valley machine for a major part of the game before falling before an alert passing attack and a 32-7 defeat. SM’s lone score came on a pass from Don Coyarelli to end Granny Wright. Covarelli kicked the conversion. Then the peninsula club made the annual plane trip to Southern California and challenged another defending champion, the Fullerton Hornets of the Eastern Conference. The Bulldogs were stung, 26-7, with Covarelli hitting Ron O’Rourke for the single td for SM. Bill Barraclough’s golden toe added the extra point. The highlight of the season took place the following Saturday when the CSM crew trounced Sacramento’s Panthers, 15-6, in the Big Eight Conference opener. It was the first time since 1946 that a San Mateo gridiron club had beaten the capital city footballers. Bill Barraclough, the poor man’s Lou Groza, did the winning damage with a 30-yard field goal after the Bulldogs had tied the score at 6-6 with an 85- yard td run by 205-pound fullback Gerry Meyer. Covarelli added the insur- ance tally in the last three seconds. From there on, the CSMites were destined to lose six straight hard-fought battles. WCC, with two lucky scoring thrusts, shut out the Freitasmen, 12-0. Santa Rosa’s Bearcubs turned a deaf ear, 19-0, after the Bulldogs had driven to the 9-yard line on the opening kickoff. Stockton ruined this year’s home- coming festivities, 14-6, and won the league title three weeks later. Oakland revenged last season’s 20-13 loss by slipping past on two last period td’s along with a blocked punt for an automatic safety. The Tom-Tom remained in possession of City College of SF as the Rams issued the third scoreless effort against the Mateans, 34-0. A belated bid to get a win resulted in yardage galore from the single-wing but nary a td. And Modesto nearly got the axe before squeezing out a 20-12 decision in Piratetown to hold on to “Jumbo,” sym- bolic elephant of the Modesto-San Mateo series. With more veterans expected come next September, the coaches are looking ahead to a better and more profitable season.

BASKETBALL “Boys, this is a basketball.’’ That’s what Coach Balsley seems to be telling his top five as they open the practice campaign. Hoping to better their 10-15 mark of 1955-56, the cagers of Coach Ray Balsley set out on a rugged trail through another 25- game slate and, after completing the exhibi- tion rounds with a 5-6 count, had high hopes of reaching a rung in the upper division. But fate was to have otherwise, and after a dismal first round of 2 wins and 5 defeats, the Bulldogs came back strong to win 3 and drop 4 to wind up in fifth place, tied with Stockton. City College of SF represented the Big Eight at the State Tourney at San Jose JC and grabbed third-place honors by bowling over San Diego, 76-63. In collecting an identical 10-15 record, the CSM five tallied 1656 points while the opponents hit for 1750.

BASEBALL When you see little spheroids of white horsehide flying through the air with the greatest of ease, you know it’s time for baseball, and the outlook for Coach Jesse Freitas’ 1957 championship hopes were good, considering the potentiality of four vets back in uniform. The men were a game bunch of lads, and after dropping the opener to the Stanford Braves, 2-0, in a season delayed by two weeks of solid rain, they came back to set up a five-game winning streak and held a 7-6 mark by the first week of April. East Contra Costa defeated the Bulldogs in the next game, 7-5, before the peninsula nine picked up the first victory with a 6-5 decision over the UC Cinnamon Bears. The next Saturday gave the SM club a split in the BEC opening day twin bill, Modesto taking the first, 6-2, the Bulldogs winning the nightcap, 6-4. Then came wins over Alameda Naval Air Station, 13-1, Moffett Field NAS, 9-7, Parks Air Force Base, 7-2, and the first game of a league doubleheader with Oakland’s Thunderbirds, 6-1. The East Bay school won the second, 10-9. As the yearbook prepared to close up shop, the CSM nine had posted a victory over Treasure Island’s Marines, 7-5, and dropped a return match to Stanford’s Braves, 10-4, with a trip to Sacra- mento forthcoming and eight other BEC games remaining.

Before March 22 was a quiet but busy day as the students started eating their lunches early in the Cafeteria, talking over class problems, club doings, and the recent games. After Then the sharpest earthquake to be felt in this area since 1906 hit. While classes re- mained in their rooms until bells ordered them outside, the crowd in the Caf. moved right outdoors, surprised and somewhat amused, Results A roving. cameraman snapped these shots of CSM’s reactions. There was no damage done, and the lunchers quickly went back indoors to eat, to talk about campus doings and the coming games. College work carried on into the evening hours with many people studying for graduation or for advancement in some particular type of work. Many of the plumbing apprentices worked for their AA degree, and some of their class work is pictured here: 1—Blueprint reading and drafting; 2—Related training class work; 3—Lead wiping; 4—Welding; 5—Studying a plumbing system in miniature.

Kottinger, machine shop instructor, and to Richard L. Averill of the Psychology Department. Mr. Kottinger joined the faculty in 1941. Mr. Averill came in 1946. In the mem- ories of their many students, their worth and influence will long remain.
