Housekeeping GERTRUDE BOUVET “Hey, what's the hurry? The cry is heard whether you are in the cafeteria in line for lunch, or in the hallway pushing to class. There's never any answer to that cry. nor is there any complaint from the busy workers who keep our second home neat and clean and warm. First to arrive and last to leave, Mr. Nichols, with the aid of his staff, keeps a watchful eye on the condition of the buildings and grounds. Mrs. Bouvet and her kitchen staff feed the hungry horde? who appear in a constant stream from 12 o'clock to 1:30. Unobtrusively the satisfying atmosphere of B-CC is maintained by these staffs.
