Mr. Joe Dickman and Mr. Otto Hufziger were the counsellors for this year. December found the class of '52 proudly displaying their shiny new class rings. To honor the seniors, the members of the class of '52 picked up corn, worked in concession stands, and collected class dues in order to finance the prom, Stardust Ball, which was held in the field house. This year was climaxed by the May Day cele- bration with two honorable fellow juniors, Queen Sue Fogarty and King Art Bryant, reigning over the festivities. September, 1951, found the class of '52 on the last lap of their journey through high school.

CI1iO1' SIIHPS C1358 Prop 1CCY At the class of '52 reunion held at the palatial mansion of that celebrated playboy, POWELL TOTH, a survey was conducted to determine the occupational trend of high school seniors twenty years ago. Conducting this poll were the noted news commentator, R. LEE WINKLER. and his secretary, CAROL WESTRAY. Many interesting and varied occupations were found. In the field of agriculture it was found that RALPH HERTLEIN has become a successful truck gardener in Graham Land, Antarctica. The active, ambitious GEORGE CLARK is a mush' room grower. Both George and his SQCFCUIFY. LALA HARLOW, face ruin, however, at the hands of BILL VJORKMAN who grows toad' stools in the next acre. They have called on the services of NORBERT MONNIN, the Wall Street financier, to aid them in this dilemma. In the field of entertainment we find SCOTT BIRCHFIELD, recent winner of the academy award for his part in the revised production of Dumbo , ED COTTERMAN is now a highly esteemed master of the ballet.

Although Butler's girls' basketball was organf ized last year under the direction of Miss Rozann Ruby, this is the Hrst year the sport has really gotten under way. From a group of seventy girls, the squad of twentyfsix was chosen for the varsity and reserve teams. The Hrst game was played with Fairborn on their home court. It was one of the best games the girls playedg however the victory went to Fairborn by the margin of 36-30. Fairborn was again scheduled for March 6. The girls started the game with high hopes and kept the score fairly even during the first half, but in the third and fourth quarters Fairborn pulled ahead and the Aviators just couldn't keep pace. The final score was 3149 in favor of Fairborn. Un March 21, the girls met the West Milton six in Butler's field house. As this was the last game of the season, and also the last game of the year for the live senior girls, everyone had her heart set on winning. Hopes were high, and as the half ended, the score was an even 10f10. In the third quarter Milton started to pull away and continued to lead throughout the remainder of the game. The iinal score was 2845. Heading the list of scorers was Sue Krohn with 40 points, followed by Helene Theodoras with S, Ellen Koch with 7, and Margie Bivins with 6, Outstanding defensive work was done by guards Janet Ruehling, Wanda Myers, Kathy Lang, and Mary Gail Borehers. Ellen Koch, forward, headed the team as captain. The reserve team, headed by Captain Roberta Orput, guard, promises to be a fine team next year. Although they lost all three of their games by close margins, the girls displayed ine sportsf manship and character in all of the contests. Outstanding forwards for the reserve team were Beverly Utz, Elizabeth Mills, and Judy Bowf man. Roberta Orput, Alice Peterson. and Delores Spitzer did a fine job of keeping the ball out of the hands of the opposing forwards. arsity Clmeerleaclers T TU RICSHT Rtgum 1..lI1lPIII.ll1, Suv I3-g.uty.

A nonfprolit paper, it is iinanced pri' marily by advertisements. Some financial aid is also gained by the collection of sales tax stamps and by the profits from the concession stand at various basketball games. The journalism class, under the leadership of Mrs. Ruth Stump. compiles news and articles for thc paper which is printed each week by the Herald Publishing Company in Tipp City. Members of the journalism class automatically become members of the Press Club of the high school. Barbara Snyder served as president of the Press Club this year while -lulia Hudson was sccretaryftreasurer. Ruth .laekson headed thc Aviator staff as edif torfinfehief. Doris Francis and Ann Notfsinger were the cofassistant editors. Shirley Day Hlled the allfimportant position of business manager, and .loc Hart was assistant business manager. Sports editor this year was Bill Wtirknian. The Aviator stall is quite proud of their staff photographer, Fred Booher. Fred, who is only in the eighth grade. is not a regular journalism stu' dent, but he has done a ine job. The Aviator is very wellfknown and anxiously awaited by all of the students each week. Every' one certainly enjoys this weekly schoolfcommunity newspaper. i rary Staff During a typical day in the busy library, the librarian and her assistants, Marilyn Csterday, Doris Billings, Carol Hockenberry, Shirley Gates, Arlene Fabian, and Shirley Spradling, answer the following questions and many others: Do you have a book about Lincoln? Where will I lind a good horse story? Where's a map of the U. S? Are any of the new books in? The new magazine raek is wellfhlled with the best magazines which have a wide circulation. They indicate that some pupils take liteially Bacon's Some books are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested. The librarian, Miss Funderburg, has had ap' propriate decorations for several special days' f Christmas, Valentines Day, St. Patrieles Day, and Easter. The bright colors and seasonal trim' mings make the library an inviting place where everyone is always welcome. . W Y ll W ii n 1 . i D LEFT TO RIGHTQA. Fabian, C. Spradling, M.

Tliespian Troupe Numher 1044 is the goal of all dramatics students at Butler high school. It is strictly an honor organization. Memhership is earned hy a point'system-points heing gained by participation or helping in any dramatics def partment presentation. Ten points is the initiation fee. Every ten additional points gives one a start. Four stars denote an honor Thespian, the highest standing recognized hy the National Thespian Society. Butler now has four honor Thespians. They are joe Cranor. -lohn Harley, 'lack Linker. and Alice Peterson. john Harley served as president of the troupe this year, assisted hy Aloe Cranor as viecfpresident. The oflices of secretary, treasurer, and scribe were filled hy Ellen Koch. Sue Fogarty and Nancy Smith. respectively. Mr. Ralph Miller was the adviser of the group. Every fall the dramatic arts department pref sents a three-act play. Their choice this year was the comedy. ftniiitzry Tlitiiu. Leads were played hy -lack Linker, Alice Peterson, joe Cranor and Sue Fogarty. Ellen Koch. john Har' ley, Cynthia Lovell. Bill McPherson. George Clark. Carol Shanahan. Regina Lampman. Tom Sheahan. Doug lviook. and Curt Bryant made up the supporting cast. ln addition to giving plays. Thespians and dramatics students enjoy seeing them. Their interests seem broad in this field. This year they traveled to Dayton to view the tragic Death of a Salesman, and to Springlield's Play Box to see The Czmozis Savage, a comedy. Butler's play cast for The Dear Departed won the district one act play contest last year. The group then offered to he host to the contest this year. which was held on April 5 at the school. Butler is noted for heing a strong conf tender for the winner's trophy. Their entry this year was The Valiant. utler instrels of Butler's spectacular production of the year was the third annual Butler minstrels which gave a unique display of the outstanding talent to be found in the Butler schools. A new theme was inaugurated in the show this year. It was that of the United Nations trip, complete with the securif ty council and Miss Tricky Leaf, who was played by Janette Ruehling, a senior. Members of the allfimportant council were Gustav Rattleofski or Russia, played by Bill Mc' Phersong Miss Last Hope Kittcnish of Great Britian, played by Arlene Fabian and U. S. A. Twirp, representing the United States and played by Curt Bryant. As personal valets for the group, four senior boys very efficiently filled the posif tions. They were John Harley, known as Noah Count, Art Haywood, known as Slowfootg Dale Price, known as Uncle Tom: and Jack Linker, known as Shine. These boys served as Endxnen for the last part of the minstrel. which was a review of the countries visited during the hrst part. The minstrel this year featured the songs and some of the customs of many different countries throughout the world. Some of these included a visit to Paris with Betsy Vance singing April in Parisgi' a trip to Hawaii with Art Haywood adding a festive note to this scene with his original hula dance, the IHCHQS version: and an oldffashioned negro camp meeting scene in the South. This year's minstrel proved to he the best ever. and it was a complete success. Great acclaim goes to the directors. Mrs. jean Miller, Mr. Ralph Miller and Mr, james W.

No football game would be complete without the halfftime show presented by the Butler High School senior band. The band very seldom misses a game, and its members are always on hand with fighting music to help the Aviators to victory. The band also appears at some of the basketball games of the season. Outstanding on the agenda of the senior band this year was the fact that the group gave three concerts. The lirst concert was given following the football season, giving a resume of the foot' ball music, plus several other novelty numbers. Sigmund Romberg was commemorated at the second concert held in February. The mixed chorus and the girls' chorus joined the band in special music for Romberg. The third concert was the annual formal concert held on April 25 in the field house. Robert Hance, was the special guest soloist this year. The band, under the direction of Mr. james W. Hopkins, consisted of eightyfthree members, sixty of whom were marching members. janet Odle was president of the organization this year, and Paul Vance was vieefpresident. Serving on the executive committee were Dale Anderson and Susan Hoover. Some of the Butler band members entered solo contests this spring. The drum majorettes also entered several contests this year. Head majorette was Jeanne Martin. The other majorettes were Nora Workmsiii, Wandzi Hept, Sue Smith, and Carolyn Knotts. An important project of the band this year was to raise S3000 for the band uniform fund. It is hoped that new uniforms can be obtained and put into use during football season next year. The Butler Band Association was the helpf ful backing organization of this project. The junior band meets three days each week to practice under the direction of james W. Hopf kins. Although this band is not too active when it comes to concerts, it is a very important or' ganization. junior band is a preparatory band to prepare its members for service in the senior band. junior band includes sixthfgrade students and junior high school students. Gail Witham is the president of the junior band. ixecl CIIOILIS 1 FD 9 ft' 1365000599 :.'5f1 ' h Q! Qy-..QQ . Q, ,g LEFT TO RIGHT ROXX' 1 Vw' Spitzcr. E. Vfliittridgc. B. -loncs. K. Martin. .I Pmgh.

It was organized in 1949 hy the present faculty adviser, Mr, Francis Puthoff, science teacher and coach at Butler. The purpose of HifY is To create, maintain and extend throughout the home, school, and community, high standards of Christian eharac' ter, with special emphasis this year on gaining a hroader perspective of everyday prohlems. This year the HifY in cooperation with the Y-Teens sponsored the Honor Banquet for out' standing students at Butler for attendance, scholarship, and other special awards, and par' ticipated in the Easter service assembly. They also sent Charles Lewis and joe Cranor to Camp Nelson Dodd, a Hi-Y oihcer's training camp: and secured bulletins from colleges and univer- sities in the state of Ohio in order that seniors might have access to full information regarding a college. Oiheers for the club this year included Charles Lewis, presidentg Bob Musick, vice'president1 Joe Cranor, secretaryg Jim Lang, treasurerg Richard Koch, chaplain, and Larry Furrow, historian. At the March meeting officers for next year were elected. Joe Cranor was elected president: Ronnie DeHays, vieefpresidentg Richard Koch, secretaryg and Jack French, treasurer. The ofhces of chaplain and historian were left vacant until the fall of the new school year. Y-T To build a fellowship of women and girls devoted to the task of realizing in our common life those ideals of personal and social living to which we are committed by our faith as Chris' tians, In this endeavor we seek to understand Jesus, to share his love for all people, and to grow in the knowledge and love of Cod. This is the purpose of the YfTeens' organizaf tion. The YfTeens are the teenfage members of the Young Wonien's Christian Association. Mrs. Jean Robinson is the adviser of this group of 140 girls.

Under the able super' vision of Mr. joseph Kaenzig. the club completed its third year of existence. Membership in the club has increased with each year. There were twentyffive members in the club this year. The club and its members have four particular aims. These are to stimulate an interest in science, to understand the importance of science in every day life, to give service to the community, and to get more enjoyment out of science. The group meets once each month to conduct a business meeting and have a program of scienf tilic interest to the members. The programs are greatly varied. They may include a student' prepared program. an outside speaker. a movie, or a held trip. Each member of the club is required to submit one project a year to the club. The project is to be research or experiment in a field of par' ticular interest to the member. Projects this year included many research themes of a great variety of subjects. There was also a demonstration on the human sense of taste. The projects are pref sented at the Ixlarch meeting and are on display in the science laboratory for one week following. Richard Koch served as president this year. Other officers included Sue Fogarty. vicefpresif dentg ,lim Lang. treasurer: and Susan Hoover. secretary.

For fifty years her history has been one of steady progress. She had her beginning in 1902 when the old Butler High School was opened at the corner of Route 4-O and Peters Pike. Soon this building was too small, and another school was erected in Vandalia in the year 1921. This is the present school building. ln 1944 another new elementary was opened south of Vandalia to relieve the present building of its crowded conditions. Une of the finest fieldhouses in this 'Te f'1 A- locality was erected in 1950 to provide for a better physical education program. In 1951 the schools again became crowded. To remedy this condition, an addition to the high school building and another elementary at Murlin Heights were begun, and will be opened in September, 1952. At present the school is undergoing a change in the curriculum through the aid of Ohio State University and the Kellogg Foundation. These and many other improvements have come dur' ing the last fifty years to make Butler High a credit to her graduates and to her community. SKYWAYS INC.
