CafartsiAicL Serving delicious and economical lunches to the students every day is the contribution of the cafe- teria staff to MCHS. The lunch program receives both federal and state aid. A special milk program subsidized by fed- eral aid, permits all students to buy milk at a low ccst. Two cafterias operate during the year, one at each school. The program has grown until an average of 800 students are served each day. The day before Thanksgiving when the traditional turkey dinner was served, a rec- ord breaking 1046 students were served in the cafeteria. Mrs. Gladys Van Vorous heads the lunch- room staff at the Higgins Avenue plant. The cafeteria at the South Avenue building is under the direction of Mrs. Lillian Johnson.

To them we extend our deepest appreciation. Skip Fox and Marshall Maintenance staff, in front: William Heberle.
