Best Food in the World Served Here . Barbecue, chop suey, and chicken pie are among the many delicious foods which tempt the appetites of most of the several hundred students and teachers who eat in the cafeteria every day. Salads and vegetables are also very popular. The food usually disappears in less than half an hour! Mrs. Tritten starts preparing the food at ap- proximately 7:OO every morning, and with the help of the student assistants, keeps the food moving quickly and efficiently when it is served. These assistants are selected by Miss Anderson, who has acted as supervisor in the cafeteria since it was started. Mr. Dike, business manager, takes charge of all income and expenditures. Gross receipts average about fifty dollars per day during the winter months. Our school serves these meals at cost. When the new gymnasium and cafeterial have been completed, we will go on the Federal Lunch Program and then be able to serve more stu- dents in less time and at an additional re- duction in cost. : .af

Without a staff of efficient responsible custodians, any large school system such as ours would be unable to function. Clean halls, shining desks, sparkling windows, and repaired lockers are not the result of pure chance. They are the result of hard, long hours of work put in to keep the building clean and in good repair. The neatness and cleanliness of the building lies in their hands. Five men and five women have been charged with the responsibility of keeping our school plant in top condition. Their tasks are many and varied. They keep our school sparkling, dispose of waste paper, cut the grass and keep the walks free from snow. Headed by Harvey Ramthun, this group creates a pleasant, comfortable Wausau Senior High - one of which we are iustly proud. AI Henke Edna Roeder Elizabeth Poi Joe Sneeden Ruth Borchardt

My ain't that something how our kids get a ride to school everyday? Does this conversation sound fa- miliar? lf it does, then you, along with your parents, will be interested to learn the following facts about the bus transportation to Senior High. The school buses cover the towns of Berlin, Maine, Stettin, Rib Mountain, Wausau, Texas, Easton, and Hewitt. These buses are driven by very competent driv- ers who are genuinely interested in their work of trans- porting students. There is a total of fourteen drivers, plus one or two substitutes for each operator. Eight of these drivers have had the vocational driver training course. The drivers who have had this training are the following: Ervin Hieronimus, Al Mielke, John Anklam, R. H. Gohdes, lyle Weeden, Ben Moser, Dennis Bliese, and Marcus Lemke. ln addition to this Marcus Lemke, who owns five of the fourteen buses, holds a tive-year no accident Driver Award from the state motor vehicle department and a four-year card from the National Safety Council. The main requirement for a school bus driver is that he must be a competent driver and be twenty-one years of age. At the present time 626 stu- dents are transported daily with the buses covering a total of 886 miles per day within a 25 mile radius. So in the future, when Ma or Pa makes some com- ment about How lucky you kids are to get a ride to school everyday, you will be able to reply, We know, and we are thankful to all of the people con- cerned.
