x ACTIVITIES Snack Shack and House and Grounds SERVICE WITH A SMILE Snack-Shackers appear quite happy to see paying customers, judging by the friendly reception given Beth Carl s money by John F ouracre. WHERE SHOULD IT GO? The House 8: Grounds Committee is having an arduous time deciding where-in the patio the Christmas tree will be put. To add to the oomplex dilemma, their Co-Chairmen K. Meyer and R. Brazzale also seem to disagree as to its location. 4-0' The Snack Shack, newly adorned with a shining coat of paint has become a priceless friend for shivering and fam- ished football fans. Half-time at Tena- flyis pigskin games finds Snack Shack members selling hotdogs with relish and mustard, trying to get orders straight, relaying urgent messages to hurry up with the coffee, and juggling change. The Snack Shack offers tasty tidbits for any fanis palate. Snack Shack members, headed by Chairmen Nelly F arnum and John F ouracre, have to arrive at an early hour to prepare for the coming stam- pede of cold and hungry spectators. Keeping the school in order both in obedience and appearance, the House and Grounds has no limits for its area of service. Headed by Co-Chairman Richard Brazzale and Key Meyer and Secretary Susan Marshall, this group has greatly increased its activities and effectiveness over past years. Their main task, developing a beautiful patio and improving the surrounding regions of our new school, has kept the members of this group working beyond school hours. 'QS' Y
