They are a closely knit body, held together by traditions W3 ., ol yt urs stinuing. 'l hese tr ltltl0l1S pl-ly in important p trt m the life ot' the high school, and they probably result from the fact that there is a nucleus ot' teachers at San Mateo who have been here for some time. These teachers are taniiliar with every phase ot' the work and traditions of the school. They know every important event that has occurred. They carry on and spread the traditions among newcomers. San Mateo's faculty works with the San Mateo County Teachers' Asso- ciation. Twice a semester delegates are sent to the conventions, and salaries, tenures, and insurance are some of tl1e subjects that are discussed at these meetings. Delegates are also sent to the California Teachers' Association, Bay Section. Miss Clara E. Norton represents the teachers ot' San Mateo County at these meetings. There is an annual i'2lCllltlV picnic and also a play. ln tl1e past the fac- ulty has presented Dear Brutus, by Sir .Iames Barrie, and Belinda, by A. A. Milne. This term Lewis Beach's comedy, The Goose Hangs High, was presented at the Junior College audito1'iun1 on April 22. The cast was successfully directed by Miss Lucy Collopy. Miss Hazel 'Wolhaupter and Mr. Hubert Dunn headed the group in the parts of Eunice and Bernard lngals. The oldest son, Hugh lngals, was played by Mr. John Parlett. The spoiled collegiate twins, Bradley and Lois, were por- trayed by Miss Dorothea Eldred and Mr. Bert Griilin. The grandmother's T part was taken by Miss Helen Cummings.

'.i Able Leaders Maintain lmportant Student Body Offices By Mxnoxnier CA MPmiI,L . ,A H15 executive machinery of the school was interrupted this year ii' by the graduation of the student body president and winner of fxw ,K the Citizenship Cup, Herbert Goldman. Herbie, as he was known around school,.proved himself an excellent executive. H-assel Smith, president in the spring term, during his two JN years in San Mateo, has shown his abilities in nearly every field' dramatics, scholarship, debating, the management ol' the business of the an- nual, and the conclusion of a very satisfactory year as president of the stu- dent body. The vice-president ol' the student body, Bill Hoag, Vera Prendergast secretary, and Jesse Feldman, treasurer, helped the president. Tom Scott, as school auditor. showed himself to be a willing worker and his help to the treasurer has been indispensable. As athletic manager, Siki Yama has been a great success, proving him- sell' capable ol' Iilling a responsible position well. Dramatic manager during the past year was Ed Hargrove. He partici- pated in a number ol' plays and was president of the senior class. Alex Brown has proved to be a l'aithl'ul servant of the student body as head yell leader. Editor of the Hi, is a responsible position requiring much experience and ability. John Follett filled this position very well during the fall term. Ed Neal, editor ot' the Hi during the spring semester, won hearty praise from the students for his work. ' Gordon Stollery's past experience as editor of the Hi made him thor- oughly competent as editor ot' the Elm which presents truly a picture of student life. Sara Lyne Posey is one ol' the most ellicient leaders that San Mateo has ever had. She has carried out the responsibilities ot' president of the A. G. S. As chairman of the Dance Committee, she has made the school dances un- paralleled successes. Castleman La Rue proved himself to possess excellent qualities of lead- AGL 5 QNX ership in his assumption of responsibilities for president of the A. B. S. dur- , 0 ing the fall term. Victor Delbourgo carried on the work of his predecessor QT I 1 fff in an inimitable way during the spring months. af' elim Qi li 7 uf W , f K r 17- e - i iff? i 7 ., Q all 1932 ELM lla .
