cafeteria. As the minute hand of the clock approach- es 11:13 AM a strange stillness invades half the classrooms of Bourne. Teachers and students alike stare hungerly at the creeping hand. The clock ticks, the bell rings and the rush is on. Waiting to receive the hungry hoard and appease it with hot lunches and ice cream is the patient and courageous cafeteria staff. Saved from starvation and filled with food that even the gourmets of the student body grudgingly admit is O.K. , the first shift returns to class to make way for the next one. Mr AIpv Cnncnli Familiar figures in the halls of Bourne, our custodians can be depended on to fix anything from radiators addicted to extremes of hot or cold to lockers that have had a little too much paper stuffed under the locks. Known to both the faculty and students by their nicknames, Nick, Ben, Red, Peter and Rem deserve a vote of thanks for keeping our school in a condition in which we can all take pride. Cafeteria Staff

No, you don ' t seem to be running a fever. Why don ' t I give you an aspirin and you go on back to class . . . well, an aspirin will take care of a headache, too and a stomachache! Our nurse ' s office is a busy place. For weeks on end Freshmen physicals are given. After this first hectic rush the Health Room settles down to a steadier pace. Mrs. Stowe 1 1 and Dr. Krackower minister to the daily run of minor ail- ments — headaches, flu, and minor sprains. They must also be prepared to help in case of any emergency which may arise at Bourne. Upper Left: Dr. Krackower office workers . . . health The secretaries in both of Bourne ' s main offices have a difficult and often trying job With phones ringing and students running in and out on missions of great importance to someone, the secretaries must still manage to find the time to keep up on their regular work and complete any special work which comes in. Every day notices must be typed up, mimeographed and ready for the office girls to take from class to class fairly early in the school day. The buzzing of the squawk-box creates no end of untimely interruptions. Absences must be checked and mail sorted, answered and filed. With all the work Bourne ' s secretaries must do we all agree they deserve any coffee breaks they can find the time to take. Mrs. Stowell School Nurse . . . janitors . . .
