Driver Education I COULDN ' T RESIST knitting some booties for your new baby says Kathy Bartlett, an appreciative ex-pupil of Mr. Cargill. Aside from his three driving classes, he teaches a fifth grade class at the Daniels School. Started in 1953, the Driver Education Course, under the direction of Mr. Phillip Cargill and Mr. Anthony Guarino, provides the students of M.H.S. with an excel¬ lent opportunity to learn how to drive and to gain some essential knowledge of the mechanics and operations of the various parts of a car. Approximately one hundred seventy-five students enroll in this ten week course an¬ nually. During this time-period, they have thirty hours of observation and six hours of actual driving. Since the school has acquired one of each type of car, the pupils have a choice of either course, hydramatic or standard shift, for which they must pay $25. Custodians The efficient and hard working custodian staff help to make Malden High School clean and smooth running. These people are always ready to help with any problem from finding scenery to listening to the various difficulties of students. There is at least one custodian per floor, plus matrons. Michael Curley is stationed in the base¬ ment, Leslie Regan on the first floor, David Finn and James Locke on the second. William McGhare on the third and Ben Greelay on the fourth. Our two matrons are Mrs. Helen Bogan and Mrs. Mary Spencer. With their ability to keep our school clean, The White Tornadoes serve us well. 24 THE MORNING CREW of the custodial staff consists of Front Row: Dave Finn and Mike Curley. Row 2: Roy Finn, Eddie Fitzgerald, Ben Greenlay and Les Regan.

Jacks of all Trades . . . Our Annual Substitutes Work at Many Jobs The substitute teachers, Mrs. DiPietro and Mrs. Sullivan, are well experienced, both having taught previously. Mrs. Di- Pietro, now working towards her mas¬ ter ' s, taught at Melrose and Woburn, and Mrs. Sullivan, who holds a bachelor ' s degree, taught before her marriage. Both agree that it takes strong nerves and a sense of humor to be a substitute teacher. Another aid to the school is the stu¬ dent secretaries, who work for various faculty members such as the athletic manager, classmasters, and guidance counselors. To qualify for such a position, they must know shorthand and typing. Since they work before, during, and after school, they certainly earn their pay. Helen T. Sullivan Lucille R. DiPietro
