For thirty-one years these many thou- sands of students have read. criti- cized. and enjoyed the bi-molithly publication of the Hi. their own school paper. The paper has gradually become an inseparable part of the school life of every student from the frosh to the high-and-niighty senior. To- dayis students take as matter of course the every-other Friday appearance of the Hi, as we glance at the feature column. read the head on the front page, and look for a confirmation of the latest football or basketball score. Then the school paper is thrust at the bottom of a pile of books or in an available trash can. To most of you it is just one more advantage that San Mateo High has to offer. Yet. in 1906 students clamored for a paper of their own. At that time it was a lack of funds that pre- vented the high school from having a paper. since to publish both a year book and a school paper was an unheard of extraiagance. Event- ually. in the spring of 1913. the first Ili was printed and students welcomed it with eagerness. At least they had a school-written and shop- printed paperf- one that was to continue to be published in the sehool print shop up to the present day. 'l'hrough the years this paper. relatively small in size, has become a tradition of San Mateo High School. It has reflected the views and opinions of a great number of students. 'llhis is why on the mast- head of the San glfateu Hi can be found the boldly printed words.
