HONK!! lt's Harry Elliot driv- ing his yellow cart through the halls. For three years Harry has been in charge of maintenance at Aldine, taking care of repairs and minor renovations - what- ever they might be. We could not run the school with- out Harry. He gets a little bailing wire and scotch tape and holds us together, said principal Vernon Lewis. Harry usually enjoys the students, some of which help him with mainte- nance projects. Most have been real nice. Some of them are real hardheads, but most are real nice, he said. However, on days when his ladder mysteriously disappeared from his cart or when the air was let out of his tires, Mr. Elliot got annoyed. Sometimes I'd like to get an ax and split their heads, he said with a smile. The interview ended when Harry was called to take care of an emergency in one ofthe restrooms. BUS DRIVERS As if seven hours a day wasn't enough! Mr. P. E. Marion, science teacher, Mr. W. G. Wilson, artteacher, and Mr. james Nolder, auto mechanics teacher, started their days with sleepy eyed students on their buses and ended their days with yelling students going home from school. Combined, these three teachers have driven school buses in the Aldine dis- trict for more than 45 years. While Mr. Wilson and Mr. Nolder said that after a hard day at school, they tried to ignore the noise to keep their sanity, Mr. Marion said that he was not quite sure that he did keep his sanity. Right: Besides teaching eight hours a day, lames Nolder, W. G. Wilson and P. E. Marion drive stu- dents to and from school.
