Our Comfort Depends on the Custodians and Cooks From left to right: Lorna Bartelt, Lenore Lafferty, Geraldine Cotter, Rosaleen Cody, Neva Laflcr, Pearl McLeod. Skilled in preparing tasty meals for large numbers of people, the workers in the cafeteria daily provide hot lunches for approximately 700 hungry students and faculty members at Twin Rivers, Emerson, Rather, and Ionia High School. Food is transported to outlying schools in insulated containers. School custodians are men of many skills, with tolerance and patience towards the endless requests, mishaps, even criticisms of both faculty and students. In addition to carpentry, electrical and mechanical repair and year work, custodians take care of keeping the building clean, with regular daily routines and periodic thorough “housecleaning,” usually during vacations. From left to right: Matthew Welton, Domingo Silva, Earl Davis, Lewis Martin, Clarence Spcckin, Arlcy Travis. 21

Activities A kaleidoscope of color whirled to the strains of Jim Minier's band at “Homecoming 1964. “Twilight Fascination” was enhanced by gaily decorated Christmas trees and stars. These were but two of the many school-sponsored activities occurring this year at 11 IS. People often express themselves best in action, and many students accept responsibility in the area of school activities to make best use of their talents, time, and energy. In this respect, our school is very useful because it provides a w'ide area of extra-curricular programs. Included among this year’s activities were the prom, Homecoming, with Queen Sandy Gierman and King Gary Croel, and the plays, “Our Town” and “My Fair Lady,” all of which displayed tremendous outputs of individual and team talents.
