Ladies mix, mash, bake, ’n’ serve in cafeteria. COOKS—Mrs. Rachel Sanders, Mrs. Ruth Sexton, Mrs. Maude Hartley, manager, Mrs. Helen Boyd, Mrs. Thaddie Bourgeous. STUDENT HELPERS--Butch Hicks, John Bruce Lunt, Don Richins, Bob Richins, Harold Lunt, Robert Wright, John Acres, Ronnie Daniel, Larry Lunt. Keeping almost 800 kids healthy and satis- fied is no easy task, as the five cafeteria cooks will testify. To them falls the duty of preparing well -balanced, appetizing meals that appeal to children with all kinds of likes and dislikes. All five of this year’s cooks returned from other years of service. With Mrs. Hartley as manager, all pitch in and do a fine job of cooking. Among the favorites for lunch this year were tender tortillas and tacos. Huge pots, kettles, and pans are needed for beans, puddings, salads, and other good food. Here, Mrs. Bourgeous stirs up a batch of chocolate pudding while Mrs. Sanders observes. 25

projects, demonstrations add interest to work. Delicately sketching in water colors is Carlos Renteria, art student. He was artist for Junior Prom. Mike Haws is at right. Studying in the classroom is not all there is to learning at DHS. The library gives extra information for research papers, and study hall offers tables for comfort and convenience in using reference books and in writing. Art work gives needed experience and is used for special project assignments in almost all subjects. Students who signed up this year for speech instruction found themselves talking for the first time before a group, and overcame their fear of such an experience. Demonstrations were popular features and assignments this year in speech class. TOP PICTURE shows the “three stooges”--Richard Chavez, Luis Montoya, Maggie Bejarano--barbering each other. BELOW: Darlene Mor- gan prepares bored poodle for bath, and Luis Contreras demonstrates correct techniques in playing ping pong. Having found a quiet corner of the study hall, Tommy Adams prepares report from reference books. Whether for English IV or for American government, these and other seniors spent much time in study hall. 27
