THE MAILROOM To cadets attending F.M.A. the mailroom repre- sents a link of communication with their family and special friends. This mode of communication is always a welcoming sight around 3:00, when mail is extracted hy hall officers and distributed to cadets. Sorting of this mail is done solely by cadets Vose and Williams. 21 Capt. Reynolds, you did it again.

CHOW HALL STAFF Mrs. Conway, our school dietician, instructs the cooks and their helpers on how to prepare food. Cadet chow hall workers help with the serving of foods and drinks, as well as cleaning and maintaining a healthy climate. At least two hot plates are available everyday to all cadets. Breakfast is served at 6:30, lunch between 11:20 and 1:00, and supper at 5:45. The tremendous job of feeding the cadets is a task that many would shudder to undertake. The continual supplying of food and spices is a constant reminder of the regular burdens encountered by Mrs. Conway. SUPPLY HALL Mr. F. 0. Wright, the outspoken supervisor of the cadet supply hall, distinguishes himself with his efficiency by meeting most of the cadets needs — sewing, washing, drying, and restocking school gar- ments. Cadets under the direction of Mr. Wright perform such duties as sweeping floors, arranging laundry and giving out laundry. The most often heard dittie by the cadet staff is Mr. Wright’s continual shout, “All right ladies, cut the rockin’ and reelin’ and make with the wheelin’ and dealin’.” 22 Front to Back: Burrows, W.; Burton, H.; McCurry, P.; Hughes, J.; Lively, C.; Wills, G.; Creech, D.; Frick, C.; F. 0.
