CAFETERIA To most students, lunch is the most important period of the day. This was made apparent this year by the mix up of A and B lunch. Some students had two lunch periods in one day. Everyone who likes to eat is indebted to the able staff found in the cafeteria. They prepare the food tastily, with an eye to our health. Mr. Grimsley; school dietician, keeps a constant vigil to insure the high quality of our school lunches. NURSES It is almost desirable to get sick if you can visit a nurse like Mrs. Mannino or Mrs. Weidinman. The nursing staff is always ready to help anyone with his headache or broken bone. They are kind and con- siderate even though they always see the worst side of us. Their many tasks are often overlooked by the healthy population of Marple-Newton. J 1 . Mannino, A. Weidinman

GUIDANCE The (niidancc Department of Marplc-Newtown Senior High is organized in such a way as to give the student the benefits of a good student-teacher rela- tionship. I'he student body is broken down into small groups, and each grou]) is assigned to a particular teacher. That teacher, known as an acK isor, acts as a liason between the student and the counsellor and between the stall' and the student. 'I'he student, in this uay, gets the benefit of being known as an indi- vidual through his close relationship with his advisor. The advisor helps the student with small, routine problems, and if he neeeds additional aid, he is re- ferred to his counsellor. Mrs. Martha G. Scutt, Mr. Edward F. Grubbs, Mr. Bruce B. Dimmick, Mrs. Anne Gallen, and Miss Anne Speer. Our Guidance Department has set forth an excellent program for this year which includes: (1) educa- tional and vocational planning, (2) academic or grade achievement in subject matter areas, and (3) social and personal adjustment, growth, and develop- ment. This program will be successfully carried forth with the help of our understanding advisors and counsellors. The Senior Class counsellors for this year are Miss Speer for the girls and Mr. Dimmick for the boys. The Junior Class counsellors are Mr. Grubbs for the boys and Mrs. Scutt for the girls. 19

The shining floors, clean blackboards, and tidy rooms are all products of their toil. The custo- dians work long hours keeping our building as beau- tiful as it was when it was new. All summer they clean and prepare for the following year. We at Marple-Newton are proud of our school. The custo- dians help make us prouder. BUS DRIVERS Ever)' morning at seven the faithful bus drivers be- gin their rounds. They know and greet each student on their route. Their cheery smile will often brighten up an otherwise gloomy day. Under the coordination of Mr. Brown, who arranges schedules and routes, they perform their daily duties. The school would be much smaller if the bus drivers did not make it possible for students who live miles from school to attend. Our students are grateful to the bus drivers and their difficult task.
