Cooks Survive Stampede No clocks were needed this year. Time could be told from the stampede to the lunch line. The THS food force served an average of 230 students and faculty each day. Lunches cost $.65 per meal, which consisted of a choice between a salad, or main dish, a vegetable, roll, and dessert. Each lunch period lasted a half hour which gave everyone time to relax before tackling the remaining portion of the day. Top Right: Gail Clary punches tickets of those students eagerly awaiting lunch. Middle Right: Head cook Ella Koehler prepares the lunch counter.
