our M ' Way back in the Middle Ages — 1925 to be exact — the Point Loma High School came into being. Much smaller than it is today, it was described as up-to-date in every detail. Four hundred forty-one pupils ranging from the seventh to the twelfth grades comprised the first student body. Every girl who has chafed under the yoke of dress regulations can sym- pathize with her early predecessors who were com- pelled to wear uniforms — white middy blouses and blue skirts. Impressive ceremonies were the order of the day when in June, 1926, eight seniors received diplomas. Progressive students and teachers founded the POINTER, which has grown into a first-class publi- l cation. The annual bore the same name as the paper until 1938 when the title EL PORTAL was adopted. Not to be left behind in the rapid advances of history, Lomans soon established a student government. Fashioned after the federal system, a president, vice- president, scretary, and treasurer were elected. Mem- bers selected from the junior high classes formed the House of Representatives while the senior high voiced its opinions in the Senate. In 1937 a new constitution was introduced, which established our present commis- sion system. w [•fFiniw w MuuiefflBanniECKni TrMHVWii la iMKDiumitlNiVftKtnnRSn

Ever since the first team of Loman Warriors made its appearance, s ports have played an important part in Point Loma ' s activities. Many championships have been seized by maroon and gold clad teams. Among the many gridiron victors were the teams of 1936 through 1940, in 1946, and of course, the never-to-be- forgotten team of 1949. Pointers competing in other sports have fared almost as well. The enrollment increased so much that even the addition of more classrooms, shops, and the girls ' gym did not take care of the overflow. Dana Junior High School was built and by 1945 Point Loma was reduced to a three-year high school. The construction of the two new gynis, finished this year, completed and modernized this twenty-five-year-old school. Let ' s all hope for many more quarter centuries as eventful as its first for our grand Alma Mater, Point Loma High, as we celebrate its Silver Anniversary.
