Wiley, £up.eAieitendent I welcome tliis opportunity of extending my very best wishes to the students who are graduating this year. You face opportunities and problems that will challenge the best that is in you. Your chance to serve your God and your country is without parallel. It is my hope that you will find that your high school training has prepared you for a good start and that your determination and character will lead you to accomplish great deeds of service. It is my desire that you will continue your education on the job, with the armed forces, or in college, so that your service will be the best you are capable of giving. It is my belief that you will always be proud that you are a graduate of Butler High School. May you live your life in keeping with the high ideals and sterling character of your school. ROY W. WILEY To the Graduates of 1943: You are leaving high school to face no easy task, for the demands of the days to come are exacting indeed. Many of your number are already in military service. Each contingent of inductees departing for the training centers will include others of your classmates. The girls and boys, unable to join the armed forces, will receive an urgent call to fill up the ranks of the toiling millions on the production lines. America is depending upon each one of you to do his or her part as a loyal and devoted citizen. We of the faculty are confident that you will prove worthy. We believe that you will stand the test of the severe experiences to which youth is being subjected. In many respects we envy you the opportunities to be of service; to achieve; and to bring honor to your home, to your school, to your community, and to yourselves. We see in you our second chance in life. We congratulate you upon the completion of your secondary school training. Our best wishes go with you into the uncertainties and the difficulties of the days that lie ahead. JOHN D. ANDERSON fj. J. cMauffi, AiAMta+it P Unclf2cd To the Graduates of 1943: We are proud of you, we envy you, and we congratulate you in your vigorous young manhood and womanhood, full of energy, ambition, and vision. We know that you are in a strategic position to be strafed” with the you-are-out-in-the-worid-now” advice, leaving you with the impression that you arc to be transported to some new and strange universe. The sun will rise and set on June 11, 1943, as it did on the day you were born. You will meet new problems tomorrow as you have been doing in all your tomorrows. We hope you will not need to fear your tomorrows so much as you do your yesterdays. The biggest world you have to continue in and control is the world within yourself. Whether, in the future, you are commissioned officer or private, you are the supreme commander of your own trend of thought and the protector of the good name your father and mother have given you. George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Benedict Arnold were once merely names. These three men lived on the same earth and under somewhat similar conditions; but the first two names are now synonyms of all things that are great and noble, and the last a symbol of disgrace. What price tags are you attaching to the finest name you have ever seen—your own name? J. T. HOGG Twenty-four A PeeJz into the OjJjiced.

WILLIAM CROSS RUTH HELM RUTH OTTERSON MARTHA POWELL WILLIAM CROSS In CE wc find energetic and friendly William Cross, faculty manager of athletics and super history teacher. Any student in his class knows . history, not as a subject just for credit” but as a living breathing account of people and events. Mr. Cross works continuously to improve his classes and to make the sports program of Butler High bigger and better. He has done a fine job since October, 1942, in arranging athletic schedules and keeping to them in spite of tire and gasoline rationing. In his spare” time he does research in history and reads voraciously. As a student in Butler High, he was president of his class, editor-in-chief of the Magnet, and active in athletics and music. MISS OTTERSON Small, dainty, charming, and bubbling over with personality is Miss Otterson, hcmeroom teacher of CE. She is a graduate of Butler High and of Muskingum College where she majcred in English, speech, and social studies. Being an active member of the National Collegiate Players and directing plays took up a great deal of her time. In 1942, Miss Otterson was awarded her key for outstanding work in dramatics. Her mam hobby is housekeeping, which is followed closely by ice-skating, swimming, and horseback riding. Miss Otterson comes by her love for outdoor life naturally as she is of Norwegian descent and lived in Norway for a year. She would like to teach a class in Norwegian. MISS HELM When passing 202, perhaps you’ve heard some strange sounds. No, it isn't sabotage; it’s Miss Helm teaching her French classes. English is a forbidden language there. Even the scoldings are in French; but after the first week, you have no trouble understanding what she means! Nickie, her cocker spaniel, has captured Miss Helm’s affection; he even follows her to the bus station, a costly habit, for someone must be paid to take him home. As chairman of the faculty advisers for the January class, Miss Helm did splendid work. Her posters for the Hop were so artistic that a near riot occurred at intermission when everyone grabbed one. Subtle sense of humor, winning personality, chic, soignee—Miss Helm. MISS POWELL Miss Powell, the charming southern mentor of January A Seniors, is a tiny brunette who comes from Paducah, Kentucky. She has attended State Teachers College in Bowling Green and is taking work at Pitt. After Mr. Martin left for the Army, Miss Powell moved to 214; she finds sophomores very different from A seniors. She likes good musical comedies, plays, movies, dances, good books, and is interested in people. She is fond of traveling and likes to spend her vacations at popular resorts. Many of her summers are spent with her sister in St. Louis. She claims no special dislikes, but ’tis said that gum in the mouths of babes is quite annoying to her.

This was especially true on January 22, for some of the boys were already in the armed forces, and a great many more knew that they would soon be on their way. The program began with an organ prelude played by Janice Campbell, devotions conducted by Twyla Maharg, and the presentation of the colors. Mr. Cross read the names of the members of the class already in the service and those who planned to leave in a short time. After students who had received class honors were named by Jean Walters and Joan Vance, a girls’ trio made up of Jeanne Forrester, Janet Pomeroy, and Dorothy Robb sang Mood Indigo. As has been a custom for a number of years, members representing some of the local service clubs presented awards to outstanding students. Mary Jane Zitalone was given the DAR award for superior work in civics by Miss Bertha Miller. Athletic honors for the boy and the girl who were chosen for physical excellence were given to Robert Domke by Mr. Earl Kaufman of the VFW, and to Dorothy Robb by Mrs. C. A. Kelly of the VFW Auxiliary. The Tuesday Musical Club award was presented by Miss Margarette Moore to Janice Campbell. After an organ solo, Norwegian Dance, played by Janice Campbell, Marilyn Schenck read the names of various members of the class who had earned distinction in music and dramatics. Charles Moore and Jean Walters then named their classmates who belonged to community organizations such as Kiwnnis and Rotary Clubs, Boy and Girl Scouts, Hi-Y, and Girl Reserves. The announcement of Janet Pcmeroy’s federal scholarship was made by Dr. Anderson. The class memorial, an addition to the growing organ fund, was presented to the school by William Rodgers and accepted in behalf of rhe student body by Richard Shanor and by Miss Georgia Mechling for the faculty. Greetings to the Class of January 1943 were made by Mr. Frank McCIung for the School Board, Miss Virginia Varnum for the alumni, and Dr. Wiley. When Mr. Dryden then led the assembly in singing the Alma Mater, many of the group knew that it might be the last time that thev would sing it with all their classmates.

Sixty-one fWe Ate P iauA of OuA fju+te. GlaAA. AJLUdeAA. ELIZABETH R. DOROTHY A. CAMPBELL DOERR HARRY F. GARNER E. LUCILLE HEROLD MISS CAMPBELL Sparkling personality, a winning smile, cheerful disposition, sweet, charming; unbelievube as it may seem, all these qualities belong to one person —Miss Campbell. The students of Room 205, Miss Campbell’s home room, are especially aware of these facts. Her good nature and prevailing humor have greatly helped and encouraged her students over the many rough spots of their high school careers. Miss Campbell’s interests are many and varied. Her favorite pastime is playing bridge. She is one of Culbertson’s devotees and often cops the prize. Her most cutstanding hobby is buying suits and coats for each and every occasion, thus accounting for her unusually attractive appearance. Cooking and housekeeping are her pet peeves. MISS DOERR Although most people consider Latin very boring, we in Butler High are blessed with a teacher who can really make it interesting, a teacher who, somehow, manages to put common sense and humor even into Caesar, a teacher with a smile that is more than pleasant. In short, a very likeable person. Miss Doerr’s interests and hobbies vary; but since her main interest is child psychology, her Latin students find they are studying not one, but two subjects. Her favorite hobby is raising exotic flowers. Some day she hopes to have her own conservatory and raise orchids. As an adviser of the senior class, she rakes an active interest in all their affairs. Because of her fine work and wonderful personality, Miss Doerr rates high with faculty and student body alike. MR. GARNER Mr. Garner of 201 hails from New Jersey. He likes to swim and boasts that he can play a good game of bridge. Mr. Garner was the time-keeper at all of the home basketball games and was in charge of the intra-mural basketball tourney. Mr. Garner is versatile; he has classes in typing, commercial geography, and world history. None of us will ever forget him as Charlie’s Aunt in the faculty play. His sense of humor and fondness of jckes are known alike to student and faculty members. On April first, Mr. Garner took up his duties as instructor in the Naval Training School for Yeomen and Storekeepers at the University of Indiana at Bloomington. MISS HEROLD Miss Herold is one of the teachers in room 317. She labors from day to day with the future Einsteins and masters of the keyboard. One of her desires is to have a recording made of herself giving typing drills. If you have ever heard any music coming from the typing room, it was just Miss Herold keeping her students awake by playing records for them.. She is especially fond of concert music and enjoys operas. While teaching typing at Lake Chautauqua, her interest in music was greatly increased. One of her many hobbies is reading. During her spare time and summer vacations, she does office work. Her ambition was to become an engineer; but since the school she had planned to enter accepted only boys, her ambition was shattered. Sixty-three ELLIS W. LOVE CHARLES J. MOORE LOVE—thy magic sound is everywhere One of the home room teachers of 317 is amiable Mr. Ellis Love. Mr. Love graduated from Mercer High School and received his A.B. degree from Westminster College and his M.A. degree from Columbia University. At present, he is teaching two biology classes and four algebra classes. Mr. Love is a civic leader also. He is supervisor of the public playgrounds and chairman of the Butler Civil Service. Mr. Love has been in Boy Scouting for nine years and is now the scoutmaster of troop two of the Second United Presbyterian Church. He is secretary of the Kiwanis Club .and an Air Raid Warden. MR. MOORE For three years Mr. Moore has been teaching at Butler Senior High. His days have been spent teaching history, coaching the basketball team, and keeping his home room in order. His class rooms never have a dull moment because of his unusual sense of humor. His teaching makes events of the past, which sometimes seem uninteresting and useless to study, interesting and essential. This last season Mr. Moore did an excellent piece of work coaching the basketball team. He would rather attend a basketball or football game than eat. Needless to say, we of his home room think our handsome teacher is tops”. Despite the fact that we sometimes were noisy, that wc drew pictures of him all over the boards, that we often left our extra sandwiches and gym” suits on the cloakroom shelf from one semester to the next, he is as ready to flash that smile of his ars he was the first day he met us. All of us appreciate the patience, the help, and the good times Mr. Moore has given us. MISS McKEE One of our most ardent athletic fans is Miss McKee. At all our football and basketball games you will find her cheering and helping to speed our team on to victory. She is very proud of her 39 budding geniuses, otherwise known as home room students. Like the fairy princess of old, she has blonde hair and blue eyes. Poised, perfectly groomed, and dignified, she presides over her domain in 313. Walking has become her hobby since she patriotically decided that it is better to wear out rubber heels than precious rubber tires. (Perhaps her real reason for the sacrifice is she rates only an A card.) Sixty-four MARY UBER LEON RADAKER CARL YINGLING MR. RADAKER The call, dark, and humorous teacher in room 309 is Mr. Radaker. He came to us from West Winfield High School one beautiful day last September, after curbing the urge to commune with his beloved fish, frogs, and other fauna. Although he facetiously compares his homeroom students to morons and animals, they think that he rates among the best as a homeroom teacher. Mr. Radaker worked his way through college, taught chemistry fcr eight years, and played basketball against Whitie Siljander. He has written on sports for the Sports Afield and Outdoor Life magazines and is very much interested in the Boy Scout movement. One of his students has described him as a genius with a sense of humor. MISS UBER Miss Uber, tall, dark, dignified, is a co-adviser with Mr. Garner in 201. She attended Grove City College and is a member of the Beaver County Alumni Ass ciation of that college. She is always smiling, probably because she’s always full of fun.

The answer is simple enough: everyone is flying around in an effort to get another prize-winning Magnet to press. We feel a glow of pride when we hear that term, prize-winning,” for it reminds us of the hard work behind each issue of the monthly Magnet which won second honors in the state contest and the yearbook which took third honors. We are proud of the favorable comments which our unusual covers have evoked and of the fact that our faculty adviser, Miss Reed, is a member of the executive council of the Pennsylvania School Press Association. The staff members will long remember the valuable training and fun that they had and will always feel a thrill of pride as they look at each copy of the 1943 Magnet, knowing that they had a share in its production.

IdJe. A tie Pnxutd 6u i Se+uosi cM-ujlt School fia+td This year the band has worked hard under their enthusiastic instructor. Miss Lola Beving-ton. It glories in displaying a number of new instruments. These include four trombones, two mellophones, an alto saxophone, a French horn, and a sousaphonc; however, the prized possessions of the band are two new flutes, an oboe, and a bassoon. Incidentally, the bassoon, one of the largest of woodwinds, is played by one of the smallest members of the band. The activities of this year’s band have been many. In the fall, nearly all the members were new, and few of them had ever marched before. Before many days, however, the band was marching in preparation for the football games. The band furnished peppy” music at the basketball games and, above all, contributed greatly to the success of the two public musical concerts. They are now displaying a beautiful banner which was purchased by the members of the band who enthusiastically held a gym dance and sold booster pennants to raise the money.

IdJe Pnxutdl of Ou i OnjcJi Ltsia i Webster defines an orchestra impersonally as A body of musicians”. It is more than that, however. It can be a living, breathing thing with the power to move human beings as nothing else can. Everyone has heard, at one time or another, the musical strains issuing from the auditorium during first period. That is the Senior High Orchestra at work. The students work hard, too, for each section has a certain job to do and a certain time to do it. Even if the members of an orchestra are brilliant individual performers, the orchestra is not successful if there is no co-ordination. Miss Lola Bevington, the conductor, has the difficult task of co-ordinating the different sections. The orchestra is constantly expanding. During the year a number of new instruments were added: the oboe, the bassoon, and the baby grand piano. The orchestra has appeared a number of times during the year with credit to themselves and the school, namely, in the autumn and spring concerts and in several broadcasts over the local radio station. Only a limited number of the players can be accommodated in the orchestra pit, but this small orchestra has performed for the plays and at graduation exercises.

Both a cause and a result of this interest is the Concert Choir, also known as the A-Mixed Chorus. Under the able direction of Mr. Dryden, this choir, numbering about fifty voices, has grown into one of the best high school choirs in the state. The group is well-known locally. Last fall they had the honor of appearing on the program at the convention of Music Teachers of Western Pennsylvania at the Stephen Collins Foster Memorial Hall in Pittsburgh. During the year, they have sung at meetings of the Lions Club, Kiwanis Club, Women’s Club, and other local organizations. They have also sung over the local radio station as well as at the school concerts. One of the high spots of these semiannual events comes when graduate members of the chorus return to the platform to sing Beautiful Savior” with the Concert Choir. One hundred twenty-six A CAPELLA CHOIR The A Capella Choir derives its name from the fact that it sings entirely without accompaniment. Behind this accomplishment are long hours of drill, exercise, vowel pronunciation, and detailed practice of every phrase of every song. After all this, the group must learn to follow every movement of the baton. The A Capella Choir always sings in the school’s semi-annual concerts and has also had the honor of appearing on programs before the Kiwanis Club and other social organizations Among the numerous songs which the group has memorized are Sacred Head, Dedica-tion,” and Bach’s Sixteen Chorals.

It’s a tense, wonderful moment, one which can be cherished always. We are proud of the success of The Royal Family,” the fast-moving story of a madcap theatrical family, and of Secret Service,” a Civil War romance, the first dramatic production in which students other than seniors participated. Much of the success of all the plays is due to the ability and excellent direction of Miss Montgomery. • • • One hundred thirty-one RADIO PLAYS The advent of a radio station in Butler has given a number of the students of Butler High School a chance to reach an audience greater than just that in the auditorium.

One hundred thirty-three We A ie Pnaud 644 1 Athleted, fyoatbcUl Athletics in Butler High School this year have had a hard struggle surviving, because of many difficulties arising from the war. I low-ever, every sport has been able to carry out its schedule with the exception of golf, which was discontinued for the duration. The football team, for example, had a difficult time transporting thirty players to the away games in motor cars. At least six or seven cars were always used and sometimes more. The basket ball team also faced the same situation, although not so serious, owing to the smaller number of players needed to be tra nsported. The swimming team, threatened many times with the discontinuing of their schedule, managed to have nine meets. Athletics also owe their existence to many of the teachers who were kind enough to transport the players in their own cars. All in all, the survival of athletics in the past year proves the fact that there is an intense interest in games, and they will not be dropped completely as long as there is a chance to carry out some kind of a schedule. The following material is this year’s summary of war-time sports in Butler High School. Front Row. left to right—Lucas, Diamond, Perry, DcFoggi. Madden.

One hundred thirty-six Who’s Got the Ball? The Butler High School football team completed its 1943 football season with 3 victories and 6 losses. The following is the schedule with the scores: Butler— 0 Cutler—41 Cutler— 0 Butler— 0 Butler— 0 Butler— 6 Butler—20 Butler—33 Butler— 6 106 New Castle—41 - - Mars— 0 Aliquippa—26 Ellwood City—12 - Beaver Falls—19 New Brighton—19 Kittanning— 7 Oil City— 0 Har-Brac— 7 131 One hundred thirty-seven l the 194-3. fyootkcdl Se io+i New Castle—Butler lost its opening game after showing plenty of fight; they were just too inexperienced. Mars—Butler defeated Mars in a sea of mud with Merle Iannotti scoring four touchdowns. Aliquippa—Butler’s line begins to show plenty of strength. Ellwood City—A heartbreaker that the Tornado lost on fumbles. Beaver Falls—Breaks lost this game with the Tornado being dealt a card off the bottom. New Brighton—Ed Perry scored a touchdown on a 72 yard run back of a punt. Kittanning—Termination of the Tornado’s losing streak with Tony DeFoggi going wild, scoring all of Butler’s three touchdowns on brilliant touchdown runs. Oil City—Merle Iannotti scored four touchdowns, playing heads-up football. Ralph Graham also intercepted a pass to score his only tally of the season. Har-Brac—The Tornado lost this one on an extra point. Madden blocked a punt over the goal line for the Tornado’s tally. Front Row, left to right--Domke, MafTei, Hilliard. Kirkpatrick, Madden.

Iannotti flashed form in this game. Iannotti led the scoring. Duquesne—After their long trip, Butler just couldn’t get started in time to win this one. Iannotti led the scoring- i Mars—After a poor beginning, the Tornado really showed their strength by smothering Mars. Iannotti led the scoring. New Castle—The Tornado avenged their setback in football by taking the red and black in a thrilling game. Kerr was unable to play this game; Iannotti led scoring. Alumni — Height and experience were just too much for the Tornado. Perry led the scoring. Worthington—The Tornado easily overcame the fighting Worthington High players. Kerr was injured in the game. Arnold—The Tornado started their league games by losing to Arnold. Kerr and Perry were both unable to play this game for the Tornado. Walsh started at forward. Duquesne—Too much power. Kerr returned to the lineup. Har-Brac — Butler defeated Har-Brac in its second league game. Kerr led the Tornado’s scoring. New Kensington—Ken Hi got away to an early lead that the Tornado couldn’t overcome. Its poorest showing of the season. Back Row—Cross (faculty director), Kerr, Kirkpatrick. Adamsky, Anderson. Harrison. Iannotti. Moore (coach). Front Row, left to right—Prokopchak, Martino. Walsh, Perry, Geibel, DeFoggi. Otic hundred forty Lots of Action with New Castle Kittanning—The Tornado chased its league jinx by spanking the Kitties thoroughly for its second league victory. Ford City — Merle Iannotti’s last game. Tornado was too long in getting started. Played Ford City even the second half. Meyer’s Vikings—Tornado’s most sluggish game of season. Ciry league team had too much experience for the varsity. Arnold—The Tornado lost a heart-breaker this game. Started out strong and played on even terms until last quarter. Najeway too much for them. New Castle—The Tornado whipped the red and black for the second straight game of the season. It provided many thrills for spectators containing many flareups by the players. Kerr, Iannotti, and Perry led the scoring. Har-Brac—The Tornado took Har-Brac for their second straight game this season. Kerr and Perry led the scoring. New Kensington—The varsity lost another heartbreaker to Ken High. It was close throughout the game but fate stepped in the last quarter and handed the game to New Kensington. Kittanning—A second half spurt carried the Tornado to its second victory over Kittanning. The Tornado was behind at the half by a 13-4 count. Perry led the scoring. Ford City—Again the Tornado started too late and lost this game in the last half. They finished the season with ten victories and ten defeats.

It was too difficult getting to and from the golf course for practice, and Coach Heinzer found it impossible to organize a schedule. This, however, does not terminate the interest in golf; it will continue as a regular sport after the war. Last spring and fall the boys who were interested spent considerable time at the local golf courses preparing for this season. Although they arc disappointed, they feel the time was well spent and look forward to representing their school later, perhaps when they are dignified members of the Butler business men’s golf team.

I-ast Lr p The Butler High School Track team had a successful season even with the war making it hard to schedule meets. Mr. Mixer had three lettermen returning from last year, Charles Kliskey, George Meyers, and Carl Gibson. The interclass meet was held April 6. Two inter-school meets were scheduled, one at home with New Castle on May 4 and one away. The swimming team has had an active season, participating in a number of meets where they showed well. Several of the boys placed in the WPIAL meet. Lettermen were Blasko, Day, Doerr, Hoch, Holiday, Kearns, Lennon, McIntyre, Sandbach, Zemyan (manager).

Georgia Bauman Drum Major I.etters Early in the school year the girls enthusiastically sign up for the badminton tournament. The contestants play in pairs, the loser being automatically eliminated, until only two players remain. These two meet in the finals; the one who wins the best out of five games is the champion. This year the runner-up in the finals, Jane Midberry, was defeated by Eileen Killmeyer. The girls have but little time to recover from the excitement of badminton before they rush into table tennis. The runner-up was Nina Smith. She played skillfully but was defeated by Lovey Telenson who retained her last year’s title. In both tournaments the winner was awarded a golden trophy. Basketball becomes the center of attraction as table tennis makes its exit. The teams are formed mid great confusion, as the captains choose their team mates. With great anxiety the girls watch for the announcement of the first game on the billboard in the gym. The Ensigns, the winning team and under the leadership of Sally Kradel, was composed of the following girls: Amy Dufford, Joan Duffy, Imogene Gray, Joan Miller, Mary Elenore Fox, Janet Graham, Shirley Herold, Lois Thompson, and Doris Sommer. Each member received a miniature basketball, which she is proud to wear. Since there are no swimming teams, the girls are given the recognition for being either a Junior or Senior Life Saver. Georgia Starr was the only one to complete the Senior Life Saving course. Girls intersted in tennis will complete their tournament at the end of the semester with the best player gaining the award. The girls also compete in volleyball and mushball, but the winning team receives no award. One hundred forty-four Ready! Set! Go!

Merle was voted by his team mates as the most outstanding boy in sports in Butler High School. Merle was a three-year lcttcrman in football, four-year letterman in basketball, and a one-year letterman in track. Merle was voted as the Most Athletic in his class, a very just selection.

The boxes were filled with small gifts, such as handkerchiefs, games, gum, and sweets. One letter expresses the gratitude of a mother whose children would have had no footwear had it not been for the girls’ kindness. Beneath her signature she identifies herself as One of the Bombed out.” A little fellow of eleven years begins his letter, Just a line to say thank you for all the guns you have sent to England,” and closes, When I grow up, I am going in the Navy. I am in the Wolf Cubs now.” Most of the other letters are from Southwark Central Girls School, where the small gifts were placed on a table and the girls, top forms” first, passed by and each chose the gift which she most desired. These girls had been evacuated from London on September 2, 1939 and brought to the beautiful Devon country-side. One girl writes, We had our school party and had some chips. M iss Abrams, our mistress, thought of having them as Lord Woolton, our food minister, told us to eat more potatoes . . . My eldest brother and his wife were killed in a raid on London. I will not say any more about it as there are so many brighter things to write about even in war time . . .

I also had all my father’s sweet rations.” From another letter, We are rationed for quite a lot of things now. Sweets are limited to three quarters of a pound a month, and we don’t get much fruit.” One little girl says, I chose a handkerchief, which was a very useful present, especially as they are difficult to obtain here in England.” A little 13-year-old who was delighted with a box of dominoes writes, I saw two very beautiful pictures of schools in America, and do you know my friends and I thought that one of the schools was a palace.” Telling of her family, she says, I have only one brother who is called Reggie, but he is fifteen and goes out to work.” Another little evacuee gleefully states, I am more lucky than most girls at this school, as I live with my mother and father in a house of our own.” Many of the girls have never seen their homes since the day they were evacuated. The last letter gives a touching impression of the evacuation, I was evacuated a day before the war began. Everyone was wondering where we should go. We started at about 10 o’clock in the morning and arrived in Devonshire at 3 o’clock. I was billeted in the largest farmhouse there. It was a very great change to be living in a small village instead of a large town. My mother and father and sister live in London, they have been there all through the London Blitz . . . We are supposed to be in Sunny Devon” but I have never been in a place where it rains so much although it lives up to its name during the summer months . . . My best friend comes from Plymouth which is only about 26 miles away. I have been to Plymouth many times; it has been damaged with bombs very much, but it was very beautiful before they had the blitz . . . Do you have any sirens in America? We have them quite a lot here, so often that nobody takes any notice of them except when planes come over.” Through all these letters is a strain of pathos. One cannot but be deeply moved by the infinite courage of these children upon whom one of the greatest catastrophes of all times has fallen. One hundred seventy Because We Sell... For Cash ...

One hundred seventy-two This Year Your High School Diploma Is A Certificate of Maturity The young men and women who are about to be graduated from high schools and academies all over our country are facing the future sensibly and calmly. If our observation of young people in Butler county is any guide, these young people are displaying more sober-minded intelligence and fewer traditional adolescent attitudes than most of us elders had any right to expect. Young people today show vitality and eagerness to become a part of the adult world, which is reassuring for the future. A few years from now you who graduate from high school this spring will be part of millions of men and women still young in years and spirit but mature in mind and vision—and you will take your place in the leadership of a better America.

Of the girls, many plan to attend a college or university.
