The shrill shriek of a siren, the clanging of a mad scramble through the halls, a tu- of commotion--a three-alarm fire? No, more commonplace than the hullaballoo results from noon dismissal and the rush for place far up in the cafeteria chow line. Any early arrival who is quite a distance in the line naturally obtains many friends is obliged to give them a place in front of These friends recognize other friends and nw., the heretofore fortunate one finds himself oving in the opposite direction from which he ad originally intended. Once inside the build- g, however, the uproar simmers down to the eflection of incidents of the morning. An attractively planned menu greets the diner t the doorway. From here, he progresses along e line to the cashier, choosing his platter, soup, andwiches, salads, etc., as he goes. A number BAFETERIA TOP: Preparing for the mid-day rush, the cafeteria staff stands ready. Those shown are, FRONT! Kathleen Anstine, Mrs. Lucy Shaub, Yvonne Taylor, Mrs. Rhoda Warfel.

In exchange for their duties these students receive their lunches free of charge. Small wonder that the cafeteria does such a thriving business for as soon as profit is made servings are increased.

Miss Gable, the grade school principal, has been an integral member ot our public school system for many years. Many talents are discovered which lead up to activities, in later years, along the same line. Traces of some of the compositions of our Hill- top and Lion staffs could probably be found in that noted journal, The Spyglass, a prod- uct of this period. Musical talents are discovered and put to use in the grade school choir and in learning to play musical instruments. In senior high we find evidences of these once amateurs in the glee club, band, and other organizations. 15
