fmci foomff' It is eleven twenty o'clock, one minute to zero hour, the bell rings and' the next thing that is- heard is the stampeding of studentsg running to the lunchroom to fill their empty stomachs. The line forms by those stu- day. Probably nobody can appreciate this Mrs. Kelly, superintendent of the cafeteria, along with cashiers and lunchroom assistants deserve much credit for the efficiency and the fine service which has been given. dents who anxiously wait their turn to pur- chase some of the school's succulent dishes of the highest quality. - This scene is,portrayed over and over again each lunch period through the ten months of thee school year. The foods served are of a variable sort, ranging all the Way from meat pie on Monday to fish on Friday. This year the lunchroom was under the able direction of Mr. DeCristoforo in whose hands the run- ning of the lunchroom reached a new high in efficiency. Pupils at R.M.H.S. found their meals to be always on time and ever satis- fying during the course of the busy school

- v --nl'- W' GEQKEEIII T? .....-1... fu-.-n. w-s-b.,.- It was with pleasure and anticipation that james Diamond and Stanley Finer entered the meeting room of the Junior Red Cross Council of high school students in Boston. During our Christmas vacation many needy families and orphaned children were helped through our efliorts. All of this was done in cooperation with the Senior Red Cross, of which we are a part. Again this year we held our annual member- ship drive, which was very successful. The purpose of the drive was not only to gather members but also to collect money to aid in the activities of the Senior Red Cross, on whose shoulders the real burden of the or- ganization rests. We acknowledge with appreciation the ad- vice and assistance of our teacher sponsor, Mr. Peter F. Kean, without Whose aid many of our eH:orts would not have been success- ful. We sincerely hope that next year's representatives will ind as much enjoyment in participating in this organization as we did during the past year. amine fed gmac: James Diamond, Mr. Kean, Stanley Finer 'AQ 'C .K , vr -f 1 I

Signs were made for all the football, hockey, track, basketball, and baseball games with the help of several members of the Art Staff. Everyone will always remember the fas- tidious and comical posters drawn by Gerald Pessin and Richard Goddard to advertise the senior class election and the Senior Prom. Yearbook cartoons drawn by the Art Staff will always be enjoyed for a long time to come. In his junior year, Stanley Flfbaum won the class of 1956 Shield Design Contest, and which is now being used.
