Food is not only an essential need of life, but also a de- lightful repost when prepared by our ef- ficient cooks, some of whom are seen in this picture. As we go into the cafeteria from day to day, many students foil to appreciate t h e complexity of t h e work performed by these diligent ladies under the supervi- sion of Mrs. Olive Bankes. Surely their patience must be sorely tried by the cramped quarters in which they have to work while preparing the attractive and appetizing meals for the hungry students. May we always remember these beloved cooks as we look back on our pleasant meals at Bedford High School. ln the picture to the right, we see two more of our engineers, Mr. Ray- mond Harris, left, and Mr. Norman Miller. Every hour of the day, these men contribute much to making our sojourn in Bedford High a most pleas- ant experience, They seldom get a minute to sit down, but here our cam- era man caught them while they were taking on a little nourishment.. Our Engineering Staff consists of four highly skilled and efficient gentle-- men. The gentleman to the left is Mr. Luther Rose as he outlines the work for the day with one of his as- sistants, Mr. Cliff Weyant. Our high school could not be the clean and comfortable institution that it is with- out the eternal vigilance and arduous efforts of our engineers.
