I O I Behind the scenes, Cafeteria Manag- er, Mrs. Vivian Leithead and her group composed of five adult helpers and twen- ty-two students worked ceaselessly to pro- vide tasty, attractive, well-balanced meals for over 1,500 students. All is hard work and hardly any play. Menus are planned for a month in advance, with color com- binations as well as nourishing meals in mind. Books must be kept up to date and a constant check made to insure that each student has a 314 cup serving of fruit, two different vegetables, and two ounces of meat. Huge amounts of food such as 104 loaves of bread, 32 pounds of butter and l5O-275 pounds of rice are used daily. Our custodians spent endless hours maintaining equipment and keeping the campus spotless. When they could call their time their own, these energetic men made full use of their leisure hours. The caring of a small anthurium patch began in 'l939, but since, turned into a profitable part-time iob for Masato Oda. Never able to refuse the temptation of hunting, John Medeiros spends the ma- iority of his spare time at either Poha- kuloa or Pokayau Ranch hunting. ln ten years, Junichi Shimizu, has skill- fully developed and raised over a hun- dred varieties of vanda hybrids and cata- leyas. With a true green thumb, he also raises and prepares anthuriums commer- cially. if . K sg I jifm
