PREPARING, CLEANING, AND DRIVING It was no easy task for the five cooks of BPHS to feed 400 students daily, but these cooks did the job efficiently. They prepared meats, sandwiches, and desserts through- out the school year. How would you feel after sweeping 43 miles of highway? This is just what Dave. Armin, August, and Darin, custodians of Belle Plaine High School, did throughout the school year. They pushed their brooms over 244. 067 square feet of floor every twenty days. Another big task for these men was erasing and oiling the 1.000 square feet of blackboard, which was constantly being marked upon with 576 pieces of chalk per month. Rain, snow, mud, and fog were the main obstacles that confronted the bus drivers of BPHS students. But such weather conditions seldom stopped the buses from traveling their routes each school day. Bus drivers also drove the school buses to local and tournament games, and to music contests. BUS DRIVERS of Belle Plaine students were, FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: I. Plonske, L. Lieske, S. Stier, D. Hennen, B. Stradcutter, E. Stier, O. Stier, L. Farrell, V. Hermann. MISSING was D. Tilquist.
