MCCONVILLE The Elm STQH Margaret Harrison Al V andenbos Lois Troxel Carl Hansen E ditor Sales M mmgcr Art Editor Associate Editor Foreword The present tendency in yearbooks throughout many high schools is a change from the literary to the picture book type; from the ponderous accumulation of printed material that is seldom read, to a condensed collection of pictures of seniors and organizations about the school that serve as permanent memories of the high- lights of school life. The Elm has fallen in line With this new trend, and With our limited funds have included as many pictures and features as possible. We wish to take this opportunity to give credit and appreciation to Tom Price, Mary Martha Cross, Joan Levin, Peter Monteith, and Philip Schromm for helping the staff in their preparation of the book. -lee Sta1?. -7-'-,- .a - ...- imma ..a TH E ELM .....

Bert's Beorcot Eleven For the past Eve years Coach Bert Griffin has taken care of the Bearcat varsity football squad. There have been many ups and downs during his regime at San Mateo, but Bert and team have always come out on tOp in morale. Coach Grifiin is noted in P. A.L. circles for the fighting spirit and the never-say-die principle that he develops in his squads. This year in football San Mateo had a double season, including a siege of both wins and losses. Riding through six or seven practice games and given an edge in the following P.A.L. race, the Bearcat eleven then dropped four straight league encounters, and ended in the cellar. But even with this misfortune, San Mateo can claim a prosperous season, because of the excellent showing of pre-league games. The shining light during the past season was the trip to Lodi, where the Bear- cats scored a 13-7 victory over Lodi, who later won the valley championship. It was under Bert Grifiin that San Mateo took its only football game from Burlingame. Bert, several years back, had one of the smallest teams in the history ' of San Mateo, and was given only an outside chance of taking Burlingame. Again the old Grifhn spirit came to the front, and the Panthers were held scoreless, while Bill Rapp proceeded to block a kick and give San Mateo a 2-0 win. Coach Griffin is also interested in swimming and tennis, but among the fellows Wat school he is always referred to as the football mentor. So hereis to Coach Griffin. 'Lj:j;1.::j;;i..';.
