In 1914 hungry Marple-Newtown students went home for lunch or munched a sandwich brought from home. Today Marple-Newtown cafeteria offers daily lunches which include a platter and an a la carte line. The cafeterias in the Marple-Newtown Joint Schools are under the direction of Mr. Roland Grimsley. The Senior High staff, under the management of Mrs. Robert Tross, consists of seven workers. There is a wide assortment of foods including: sandwiches, salads, hot meals, desserts, and beverages. For special school events the staff is always on hand to assist the faculty and student body. Holidays are greeted with special meals cleverly designed to suit the occasion. Satisfying hundreds of huge appetites are, from L. to R.; Mrs. E. Turkington, Mrs. E. Rudella, Mrs. M. Caracino, Mrs. J. Thompson, Mrs. D. Larsh, Mrs. H. Orr, Mrs. M. Cini, Mrs. C. Wilson. Mr. Grimsley and Mrs. Tross main- tain an efficient kitchen. The maintenance of Marple-Newtown since 1914 has been largely the responsibility of our school custodians. From early in the morning until late at night, the custodians are busy at work. Their jobs range from cutting grass to wash- ing blackboards. They maintain cleanliness throughout the school and attend to school repairs. Among their rarely noticed services, is their attendance of the heating plant. One of their most unusual services is the cleaning of our constantly painted Tiger. Overconscious of school cleanliness and its occupants comfort, the custodians strive to do their duties. L. to R. are: Mr. J. Mercer, Mr. J. Garaghty, Mr. T. Gustafson, Mr. G. Earle Mr. E. Binder, Marple-Newtown’s hard-working custodians. Meeting the mechanical needs of M-N are Mr. Binder and Mr. Earle. Maintenance 20
