CALIFORNIA SCHOLARSHIP FEDERATION Back row: R. Bierce, D. Ashbaugh, A. Digitale, C. Hayes, M. Smith. Front row: C. Lago- marsino, M. L. Ross, P. Huberty, C. Gesdahl, J. Dalo, J. Lagomarsino, C. I. Winter, M. Gardner, A. Raggio, I. Voss, S. Kosich. Not pictured: Sheila Sullivan. Miss Harshman is the active sponsor of this group. Richard Bierce is the president and seal bearer. Dorothy Lenhardt was secretary - treasurer during the first semester, but an extended illness caused her grades to be incomplete at the time the picture was taken. Beverly Wettstein was a first semester member, also. Two initiations were held, one each semester. Privilege Day is the glorious occasion when these scholars spend a Friday and Saturday in San Francisco with their advisor and Mr. Danilovich, taking in the sights and attending the theatre. As the annual goes to press. the salutatorian race is still on, but Richard Bierce is valedic- torian by virtue of his straight A record in all academic subjects. BUTTE THE BUTTE, is a project of the joumalism class. It is, however, open at all times to student contributions. This year THE BUTTE was a monthly magazine, instead of a tri-weekly as in the past. The typing classes have helped with publication. In the spring a campaign was organized to tap student interest. Just what kind of a BUTTE do students enjoy? Just what kind of a BUTTE should a high school journalism class put out? These questions have occupied the staff during the semester. Members of the journalism class were: Catherine Dotta, Gail Gardner, Marlene Gardner, Ronald Scott, Nolan Heffington, Roy Simes, Chad Roots, Shella Sullivan, Richard Bailey, Mike Chulick, Charles Schafer, Joan Scatena and Jack Williams. Mrs. Van Thiel, is the sponsor for THE BUTTE. Miss Harshman gave much time to training stencil cutters and vari-type operators. To regular lists of Mother Lode exchanges, several college papers were added this year. The most faithful exchanger has been Carl Ladeck, who is majoring in journalism at Placer College. Carl is a veteran of many BUTTE staffs.

BAND We musicians are happy. Our room is being lined with sound conditioning material by our custodians, Messrs. Podesta and Cook. Several new members have joined us. Lloyd Stahl, who once before had played trombone for us, fs back. Donald Scapuzzi and Dan Hennigan's little brother are also members now. Maybe Dan's set of drums could be called new members of -the Music Department. He keeps them at school and plays them in orchestra. Our new uniforms will cause us great joy. We feel that we have eamed them because we have worked hard under the coaching of our fine teacher, Van. . We have played for assembly and for the Big Game rally. We could not perform for that game because too many of our members play football. Durinsz basketball, however, we can work it out in shifts, so we do play for that sport. Allene Raggio isa great help to us with her sax. Many have asked whether band was a 'solid' this year as it was last. It asked Van who said, 'Yes, band is a solidl' Caraleta Gesdahl, '53' ORCHESTRA This year Van, undaunted by time and tide, once again faced an inexperienced group of would-be musicians and turned them into a smooth orchestra. Under his guidance we have learned time and expression. Some of our members played for the Lion's Club and for the senior play. The saxophone section is composed of Allene Raggio, firstg Dorothy Lenhardt, second: and Georgiana Lenhardt, third. The trumpets are James Stanfield, firstg Allan Oates, seconds and Wayne Weber, third. Trombone is Lloyd Stahl. The string section is held by Janet Voss, violin. Sheila Kosich plays piano, and percussion artist is Dan Hennigan. Allene Ra ggio, '51' SONIA A very light operetta, in contrast to last year's opera, The Chimes of Normandy. was chosen for the 1951 offering of the Music Department. Sonia is a humorous college fantasy. As the yearbook goes to press, the chorus is concentrating on learning its songs. Principals are Donna Daleuski, Nils Greenlees, Allene Raggio, Dan Hannigan, Richard Bierce, Dorothy Len- hardt, with several minor roles to be assigned. April sixth has been set as the date. A full report and picture will appear in the 1952 annual.
