s Work Preparing and serving breakfast and lunch are the main responsibilities of the cafeteria staff. Starting at 7:30 in the morning, five days a week, the staff begins its food preparations for the entire day. Complaints about the long lines are numerous but this does not stop the many stu- dents who stand in one of the four lines every day. The constant reminder from Jack Allison, principal, about putting up lunch trays was later enforced by a bul- . letin sent out to all teach- ers. The punishment was re- it striction from the cafeteria. The custodians keep them- selves busy by keeping the school clean and in perfect shape. Their duties ranged from replacing broken windows to cleaning the l cafeteria after lunch. The custodians' day is a long one. They are here early in the morning to heat or cool the school and leave late in i the afternoon after cleaning halls and rooms. To keep floors clean Cayetano Glori sweeps up off and on throughout th day. Big sellers in the cafeteria are th cinnamon rolls with white icing.
