CAFETERIA STAFF Despite the obstacles caused by the building of an addition to cafeteria, the efficient staff, headed by Mrs. Doggett, has continued to prepare meals which are well-planned, nourishing, and appetizing. At 11:45 A.M. every day there is a minor stampede to the cafeteria, caused by students who want to be first in the lunch line. Although there are some grumbles about the food, the lines are as long as ever. Taking the grumbles in their stride, the staff has the interest of all the students at heart. Left: Collecting lunch money is only one of Mrs. Doggett’s many duties as cafeteria manager. Below: Stacking dishes, Mrs. Ruth Shelton watches a student stack his dishes properly.
