Butterfield became Dean of Bay City Junior College; this year he is retiring. During these twenty- three years of faithful and intelligent service, Juntor College has been transformed from a small institution to a well known and respected college. Proof of his service 1s ap- parent. In 1926, the first year of Dean Butterfield’s admints- tration, 96 students were enrolled in Junior College; the present enrollment is 504, and in 1947, a peak enrollment of 750 was reached. The faculty has increased from 21 to the present number of 41. But perhaps more significant is the expansion of the currt- cula. In 1926, the Social Science Department, for example, offered only 8 subjects, at present 21 social science courses ave taught. In addition to this, pre-professional and other transfer courses have been added; the whole County Normal Program has been built up and a two-year terminal program has been developed. Although the requirements for the various subjects have changed throughout the years, Dean Butterfield has always met them. Not only have the curricula of the college grown, but the facilities have been expanded. New laboratories have been added, and two wings were built onto the third floor when the need arose. The Dean has also been mindful of the social side of the college. He has always encouraged new extra-curricular organizations and social events for the benefit of the students. All this growth has not come about by accident; it has been the result of the scientific approach the Dean has made to the Junior College. He has made a study of the junior college movement in the United States until now he is an authority on the subject. He has always been active in the various Junior College organizations of both t he state and the nation. He has attended many conven- tions and meetings of junior college administrators im all parts of the country. In the state Dean Butterfield has risen to a place of prominence among educators. At present he represents the Michigan Commission on College Accredita- tion, and in the past he has been Secretary and President of the Michigan Association of Juntor Colleges. When the Dean retires this year, he will not pass from public life — far from it. He has always been an wmportant figure in the community, and now he will have more tome to devote to community projects. He will continue to work in his quiet and effective manner for the good of all. The students, teachers, and graduates of Junior College give their sincere thanks to Dean Butterfield for his personal interest in thei success and that of the college. To Dean Butterfield the members of the staff dedicate the 1949 Crucible Annual. a 7 Helen L. Defoe Rolf E. Westgard John A.

To this end we have devoted consider- able time and effort. We should like to mention especially — Jack Dzyrla, whose skillful artwork made this annual possthle; Helen Defoe and Rolf Westgard, wiose patient direction brought order and harmony to our efforts; Vogue Studio, which handled most of the photography; and Miss McGregor and Dr, Ueberhorst who chreefully provided necessary expert- ence and counsel. Now: — the 1949 Crucible Annual .... First Row: Mrs. Watson, Miss Kessler, Dean Butterfield, Miss Fettig. Mr. Schultz. Standing: Mrs. Presley, Miss Zielinski. ADMINISTRATION Into the hands of the administration goes the responsibility of keeping Junior College func- tioning properly. The endless task of keeping the records for the hundreds of students is ably handled by Mrs. Watson and her capable staff. Handling the enrollment and watching the prog- ress of each student is Miss Grace Fettig, Regisirar. Veteran’s Counselor, Clarence Schultz also has charge of the bookstore and the Junior Col- lege business office. Miss Zielinski has charge of placement guidance, and Miss Presley and Miss Kessler head the library staff. : Lastly, Dean Butterfield coordinates these varied departments and sees that the best inter- ests of the students are served. ay he oOo = = —— ee ee ee ee ee ee a | aul or Top Row: James Slezak, Rudean Roth, Eugene Mossner, and Raymond Kostrzewa.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council, consisting of four freshmen and four sophomores, is the student gov- ernment body of Junior College. Since they are responsible for the planning and financing of student activities, they are the most potent organization on the campus. The council is chosen by the students in two elections; one in September and one in May. Through the council the students may voice their desires and complaints. George Reif was the President, and Dean Butterfield was advisor. FACULTY Here at Junior College we have a faculty of wide and varied background. Their vast ex- perience and technical knowledge is of great benefit to every student who attends a junior col- lege class. As we continue on to other institutions of higher learning we shall come to realize more the value of their efforts. It is to our faculty, adequately prepared to give us suitable train- ing for the future, that we dedicate this portion of the Crucible Annual. ner “= ' 1 . ‘ ‘ | . 4 ae paaHy Oe AS: EOL BRB Zee PS. ou xe SS OU ok % KE ‘ Ss oe aes S Re — : OSs | | Lola L.

BASKETBALL The 1948-49 basketball season was on old story to local cage fans; win at home, lose on the road. Although they lost only one game at home they won but two games on the road and Gnished with a 9 - 7 record, good enough for fourth place in the conference. High scorer for Coach Palmer Kern’s cagers was Bill Webb with 192 points, which helped him land a second team berth on the all-conference team. George Oliver and Don Kerr were awarded honorable mention in the conference selections. The Badgers finished strong by handing champion Bentor Harbor a 70-64 defeat, their first loss in conference competition. They also defeated second place Jackson a week later. Prospects for next year look only fair at this time since the Badgers will lose heavily through graduations.

Before a home crowd of two hundred fans the Badgers sank second place Dearborn by taking five first places in the eight EV oRIS: Dave Johnson led the way with wins in the 200-yard free-sityle and the 100- yard backstroke. Jack Scherpferman was way out in front in the 200-yard breaststroke, and he led the way for the winning 300-yard medley relay team. Other members of the winning relay squad were Johnson, and Jack Dirla. Jerry Hager made the day complete for the locals by turning in a scintillating performance to take first in diving. Others getting points for Bay City were Laur, 3rd in the 200-yard breaststroke; Dick Stewart, 3rd in the 200-yard free style; and George Reif, Ath in the same event. The 400-yard free style relay team of Sheffield, Bossman, Stewart, and Dirla, took second. Intra-mural golf champion Rolf Westgard is on the right. At left is Ken Palmer, runner-up. At Right: Jim Boyle, intra-mural tennis champion. The runner-up is Allen Lee. INTRA-MURAL The extensive Junior College intra-mural sports program was high-lighted by the fine play of the JC All-Star touch football team. The Badgers travelled to Flint and emerged with a 12-0 victory over their downstate riv- als. The gridders from Alma also came to Bay City and managed to eke out a 26-26 tie. The Wildcats, captained by Bill Webb, captured the touch football championship this fall. The JC bowling league had sixteen fighting teams bowling every Monday at the Alert Alleys. As we went to press sev- eral teams were battling it out for the championship. Plans for the spring softball league were already underway in March, and at this writing eight teams had signed up for olay. = = = ' ‘ wd ‘nanvenal ry | —y } | == = — zz. a _— - é SPRING SPORTS The spring sports outlook for Bay City JC was brightened by several returning veterans from last year’s tennis team. The perennially powerful Badger netters were undefeated in dual com- petition last year and finished second in the state tourney. The top three men of last year’s team, Jim Pollum, Rolf Westgard, and Jim Boyle, have all returned, giving Coach Kern ample reason for optimism. The golf team was not as well situated as all but one of the candidates was new to college competition. Coach Kern has Rolf Westgard returning, and Jim Hines, former Arthur Hill lu- minary. Along with several other mashie-wielders from Bay City and Saginaw they will tace a tough schedule. aa, pStst eres, r= saci | women | c a.) a ’ ete + 7 . : ] . a - ” om t - F - f ’ 5 ; N 4 a H 4 F 4 r— { s) { 3 { ‘ { } { 1 r ‘ ‘ rf f i) ‘ ') sg ] a 5 5 ‘ 5 ae ae — f_) —— p= atin | ——' f | iy been? —— : 2 1 l — fom | , — : ee “ ; a: r if JI . « « « Good Luck and Best Wishes ... .
