Ann and Merrill laugh it up with Rosie after seeing another meal successfully served. And then there was the apple that went into Rosie ' s cobbler . . . beyond doubt the most popular building on campus was, is. and ever shall be the Campus Inn; for herein the family received its daily bread. It is not often that a college student will tolerate a line, but when it came to the Inn line, he ' d be in line! Directing the 50 regular waiters who served six meals a day, seven days a week was head o ' the stock, O Herron, who not only handled total operations, but who took time out to become a part-time student herself. Hostess Stanton graciously offered grace and her time, and gave us the word on when to partake, while Merrill just-one-more-announcement Jessup, and Ann Reese played the parts of head Waiter and Waitress respectively. It was cash-and-carry Georgie Bissell and Pat Albright whom the non-mealticket holders tried hard to avoid, but never quite succeeded. Famous for its family-style meals, and as many milks as you want, the Campus Inn, its director, its cooks, and its waiters, performs a service unequalled and unexcelled, for the Whittier college family. 17

AN APPLE A DAY kept the doc away pretty well, hut when that apple went to the teacher, it was Whittier s Student Health Service under Dr. Mayo Smith that lurnished the vitamins. Smith, along with his two registered nurses and two hostesses put as many as eight pale Poets to bed in the Infirmary when the flu blew in and swept them off their feet. The stall did not stop there, how- ever, but cjuickly went to work setting its patients upright again. In addition to health counselling, care of illness and injury, and examining for readmission, the Infirmary personnel held conferences with Physical Education chiefs to adjust activity programs for stu- dents needing special consideration. Other meetings were held with students, faculty, and deans on the matter of promoting mental, physical and emotional adjustment. At 317 East f- ' hiladelphia, the Infirmary was open every week-day from nine o clock until four. Where there are ap|)Ies, there are trees: and where there are trees, there are leaves. It was H. Scott Ramsey ' s job to see that those leaves were picked up, the grounds well-groomed, and the buildings kept in top-notch order. Assisted by general maintainance man Henry Hundley, Mrs Ramsey, head housekeeper, and a crew of competent caretakers. H. Scott kept the drought away with his daily sprinkling system! 16 Dr. Mayo Smith sees that someone else has a heart. Mrs. Ramsey Mr. Ramsey Mr. Hundley
