COMMERCE THEX PilKMl Amidst the charred ruins of a once regal and imperial city arose the first structure of the High School of Commerce. From the earth- quake and fire of 1906 came a building, symbolic in its goal, trium- phant in its achievement. A new form of education was presented to the citizens of San Francisco. Sons and daughters of rich men, poor men, the middle class were sent to this new institution which taught the basic funda- mentals of business and commerce. Experimental in its day, it has proven that a knowledge of business combined with a background of science, English, foreign languages and customs results in intelli- gent young men and women. In the early days of Commerce only one building housed the many students who arrived each day from all sections of the city. But from that building emerged such personalities as Phyllis New- mann, Henry Pfister and Margaret Osborn. The early days of Com- merce are never to be forgotten.

What is Commerce now? Two large buildings, library, auditorium and gymnasium cover one square block. An athletic field covers another. Located in the heart of downtown San Francisco, Commercites have been able, with- out so much as moving from their classrooms, to watch the city by the Golden Gate progress and develop. The United Nations Conference was their neighbor for two months, the Shriners paraded before their front windows. Students of the High School of Commerce received a panoramic view of the expansion of the most extraordinary city on the West Coast. Every race, color and creed is represented at Commerce and all work towards one objective: closer and more harmonious amity. The High School of Commerce, based on the essential doctrine Love thy neighbor as thyself , stands unique among Bay Area high schools, a tribute to the ideals of benevolence, friendship and under- standing. .1 ' A r V ?
