The “Mass in G Major” is a series of six complete settings of the “Mass Ordinary,” by Schubert and was written in 1815 when the composer was only 18 years of age. Seven employees of AHA Services were honored on Tuesday for more than a hun dred years of combined service given Atlantic Christian College. It is ARA Services’ policy to give each of their employees a gold timepiece after ten year's continuous service. Honored were: Dock Ham, W. M. Franklin, Irene T. Gray, Peter J. Taylor. Dixie D, Gill, Bertha M. Parker, and Agnes E. Langston. Also in attendance were Ralph Grumpier, host of the event; Milton Adams, president of Atlantic Christian College; Hoyt Taylor, district manager of ARA Services; Ken Dale, regional vice president of ARA Services; Jones Fuquay, president of SGA; Jane Roebuck, photographer; and Keith Bracknell, co-editor of The Collegiate, Honored employees were given a steak dinner and af terward were lauded for their excellence by speakers Adams, Dale, and Grumpier who presented the awards. Adams praised the workers for their dedication. “In the summer of ’67, while changing from the old cafeteria to the new student center cafeteria, we decid(>d to go with a professional f(H)d service. We coasidered many companies and decided on ARA Services. Now, 10 years later, we are well satisfied with the excellence they have maintained. Of the original 18 members employed by ARA, seven have remained.” Adams emphasized. "Nothing is talked about more than foixi." With all the complications arising from f(K)d preparation said Adams, “Our problems have been minimal” Ken Dale, invitc“d the honored workers to take pride in playing a part in the success of ARA Services. ‘‘I extend heartfelt thanks for the excellence displayed by these workers.” Grumpier pointed out that all but W. M. Franklin were working before ARA Services came to Atlantic Christian College and also that one other worker had put in all but a few months of the ten years' service but was unable to continue because of sickness. Grumpier expressed hope that “you all will be able to be here for future awards. Thank you for your dedication.”
