The cooks served more than 700 students daily and overflow crowds loved their tacos, tostadas, fried chicken, and chocolate cake. The cafeteria workers dreamed of non- stick pans to make the dishwashing easier. Nightmares they had were about the three days when the dishwasher broke down and they had to do all the dishes by hand. Another group of helpers included Mrs. Mary Jane Arrington, Floyd (Topper) John- son, and Mrs. Marie Norte. Most of the summer before, Mary Jane and Topper, with boys to help, had planted flowers and shrubbery and started a rock terrace below the vocational arts building. Money for the shrubbery was a gift from the Class of 1967. Seeing the students early and late on school days were the 10 bus drivers, who tolerated the noisy gab but enforced strict safety rules. New on the crew, was Donald Merrell, fifth grade teacher. 28
