At the north end of the athletic field is the memorial which was dedicated to these gradu- ates on September 7, l945. On this beautiful marble memorial are the following inscriptions: To the youth of this community who so nobly served our nation in World War ll, the people of the Butler Township dedicate this memorial athletic field. Upon the fields of friendly strife are sown the seeds that on other fields, on other days will bear the fruits of victory. We do not know how he was killed, but we shall think of him thrusting forward as on this field. -Russel Davenport IN MEMORIAM: Dean Black, Larry Tootle, Dorothy Van Zant, Ambrose Beeson, Elwood Rogers, Robert Lumm, Kay Shearer. The memorial plays a large part at the be- ginning of all of our home football games. Our school band and the visiting band march up the field and stand at attention. The Star Spangled Banner is sung with the partici- pation of both bands. This ceremony is ac- companied by a display of fireworks. These graduates will never be forgotten.
