Jhe of 1948 et From the raw material of our individual threads of life, the massive Butler High loom has fashioned in its corridors, classrooms, and clubs the finished product of a finely woven fabric. Into this fabric the able hands of the artisans of the loom, our teachers, have developed on the cross strings of our friendships, our studies, and our activities, a sturdy design for living. Here, then, is the story of the loom and its weaving— Published by the Senior Class Butler High School, Butler, New Jersey DLe 1948 oom ome o Activity at Butler High School is chiefly concentrated in one large building of irregular outline, clearly shown in the picture above. The narrow portable building to the left houses an industrial arts unit. The Kiel House, left foreground, supplies additional space for clubs and other activities during the school day. Beyond the old athletic field stands the Goodwill Home, a familiar landmark for generations of Butler students. Maintained by the Goodwill Industries chiefly as a summer camp for city children, it is borrowed by the school only on rare occasions. To the right of the Goodwill Home lies Memorial Field, dedicated last year. 4 KIEL HOUSE DRESSERS OF THE LOOM o x ADMINISTRATION AND Board of Education Seated, left to right: Carrie L.

OFFICERS OF THE STUDENT COUNCIL: Right Lorraine Crum, treasurer; Robert White, president, Isabelle Guenter. vice-president, Ann Strachan. secretary STRENGTHENING THE FABRIC Butler High School is club-minded. More than fifty organizations add color and enjoyment to the pattern of school life. Most clubs meet once a week during the school day; a few meet after school. Most of us join clubs to make new friends, to form hobbies or learn skills, and to have fun working and playing together. Club membership is completely voluntary. Every student has two activity periods each week. He may join not more than two clubs, he may choose only one; or he need not belong to any. Few clubs need financial assistance. Those that do, apply for such aid to the Student Council, the only organization aside from the Senior Class which is empowered to raise money. The Student Council itself has been enlarged this year from ten members to thirty-two, elected by popular ballot. Through its committees, the Council plans regular and special assemblies, sponsors dances and pep rallies, sells tickets for games, conducts charity drives, and publishes the Informer —a handbook for incoming freshmen.

Miss Hawkins' room hummed with suppressed excitement for many hours after school. With each one editing a specific job, we worked as a well-organized team until Miss Hawkins chose the top editors at make-up time. This year, since we now own a Speed-graphic camera, most of the photography is ours. Page by page the book went to the printer, after many hours of grueling labor. Here then is the product of that work.

In their monthly meetings they hold forums or discussions on current topics and two speaking contests each year. Their program is divided into two parts: the interclass debates, which the sophomores won this year, and the annual Roxbury debate which is decided by an audience vote. Two teams are formed, one to de- bate here and one to debate in Roxbury. Besides these many activities, the club annually holds a party at Christmas and one just before summer vacation.

Seated, left to right: Catherine Alle, Donald McEwan, Robert Hesse Both French and German clubs meet to study the customs and traditions of their respective countries. Before Christmas, the German Club sent a package to a needy family in Germany. Their correspondence with Ger- man students has greatly improved their language techniques. The French Club makes posters for use in decorating classrooms. Often they learn folk songs which help them understand the people who composed them. 70 Twenty-five freshman and sophmores with a nose for news meet in 211 every Wednesday. These cub reporters, under Miss Dennis' direction, learn the techniques of reporting and news gathering.

Checking attendance for clubs and for club studies requires patience and time, above all. Club Service has four separate groups, two of which work with Miss Nielsen and the other two with Miss Hayward. Sealed left to right: Mary Jacquel, Joyce Osterhoudt, Olive Parlten, Mae De Grow, Agnes Stoken, Clarice Vreeland. Standing left to right: Wilma Cooper, Mary Mount. Lois Fredericks. Keeping the library in tip-top working order is the task of twenty girls in Library Service. With the help of Miss Curtis, during free periods they check books, deliver library slips, and file book cards. At the end of the school year, they help pack all textbooks in the proverbial moth balls. Seated left to right: W. Lautz, B. Taffe, D. Bentley, A Kelly, C. Alle. D. Schuppe, M. Dapping, J.

The task of recording hundreds of individual scores and computing comparative ratings for homeroom, class, and school is a tremendous one. Foreground: Anita Gorm-ley. Background: Ruth Am-born; Miss Belding, adviser; Doris Schmidt; Antoinette Lipari. All those novel posters seen in the halls advertising athletic events, the Christmas dance, the Senior play, and the Prom are made by the Art Service Club. Two groups, of about fifty members all told, on alternate club days work on school beautification projects like the cleverly designed aquarium murals.

SOCIAL DEVELOPMENTS ART SERVICE 73 PHOTOGRAPHY CLUB From the snapping of the shutter to the final development of a finished print, the twenty-five members of these two clubs prove that amateurs with a little instruction can produce polished, well-balanced pictures. Experiments with still life photography grew from club discussions on lighting, camera angles, and accurate measurement of distance. Left to right Ruth Boulden, Robert Dilzer, Horace Chamberlain, Madeline Mi-kowski, Paul Foley. Lowell Po t, Irene Marion. These boys, advised by Mr. Conklin, learn how to handle and care for all Visual Aids equipment.

VISUAL AIDS CLUB 74 PRINTING CLUB THE STAGE CREW About ten boys, specially picked from Mr. Rickman's printing classes, compose the Printing Club. Library slips, programs for many occasions, and the gay tags in football season are three important mass production items. In addition, the Butler Print-ery turns out a variety of small odd-jobs, sometimes upon unbelievably short notice. Foreground left to right: Peter Franco. Robert Monroe, William Close. Background: Angelo Monti. Light controls, scenery, and curtains are safe in the hands of our well-trained stage crew. On call for any occasion, these eleven lads can run out flats stored under the stage and assemble them into a set almost as fast as they can produce tables and chairs for a debate.

BOYS' COOKING Two clubs, a dozen boys in each, invade the Foods Room on Tuesdays and Wednesdays to prove that they can don an apron and make mouthwatering dishes. Under the supervision of Chef Van Driel, they have made apple pie, cupcakes, cookies, and salads which please the eye as well as the palate. BOYS' DANCING Two groups of boys interested in learning to dance meet sixth period Tuesday: one in the Kiel House with Mr. Mitchell, the other in the gym with Miss Wehrly. Several girls give their time to help the boys gain self assurance. Soon these lads will be dancing with ease and poise. GAME AND SONG The Game and Song Club is a boon to party-givers. Under the supervision of Miss Jaeckle, twenty-six girls study the art of conducting parties so their guests will want to come again. Aside from learning games and songs, they also gain the poise and grace so necessary for perfect hostesses. test the pattern FOREIGN CORRESPONDENCE Nineteen underclassmen meet every week with Miss Palmer to create international goodwill by corresponding with young people of their own age in foreign countries. They find enjoyment in assembling and sending packages to war orphans. These members have acquired many friends in Spain, France. Poland, Scotland. Finland, and Hungary. THE SCRIBBLERS These underclassmen, directed by Miss Palmer. share the feeling that writing can be fun. Weekly meetings in the attendance office give them an opportunity to create in-t e r e s t i n g stories, poems, puzzles, and articles. The club is too small to publish a literary magazine as larger groups have sometimes done in the past. RECREATIONAL ACTIVITIES Every week Mr. Ellard coaches this group of forty fellows who enjoy playing seasonal games in the gym or on the athletic field. From fall to spring, the club members follow the sports calendar and organize impromptu teams for such games as touch football, horseshoes, basketball, volleyball, and baseball. CRAFT CLUB Serving trays, metal bookends, lamps, and aluminum dishes have been created by this club, interested in crafts of many descriptions. Its eleven members have acquired skill in combining wood with metal. Meeting each week as they do in the woodworking shop, theyWind necessary tools and equipment within easy reach. LEATHERCRAFT The nineteen freshmen and sophomore members of the Leather-craft Club meet once a week with Miss Per-retti to learn the fascinating art of Leather-craft. They purchase materials already cut into specific sizes and shapes. From these pieces they make such articles as luggage tags, belts, and coin purses. KNITTING CLUB Every Tuesday, underclass knitters have an opportunity to relax and enjoy themselves. From bright-colored wool, twenty-eight pairs of nimble hands and clicking needles fashion mittens, socks, or hats. Miss Athay is always on hand to help pick up dropped stiches and to explain the fine art of knitting and purling. ENGINEERING The Engineering Club, composed of five boys, is designed to give instruction in mechanical drawing to those who cannot fit the regular course into their schedules. In condensed form, Mr. Johnstone teaches the basic principles of draftsmanship to these boys who share a common interest in the field of engineering. ROD AND GUN A shared enthusiasm for the great outdoors in general, and for fishing and hunting in particular has drawn about eighty boys all told into two sections of the Rod and Gun Club. Practical demonstrations. helpful films, discussions on conservation and on the ethics of sportsmanship serve to highlight weekly meetings. HOME NURSING Nine enthusiastic girls meet in the nurse's office to discuss the techniques of home nursing. They learn to care for the sick and to cope with minor accidents which occur in the home. Proper techniques in bathing and feeding babies come up for consideration as well as temporary First Aid measures. First row: S. Shepherd, K Treiber, K Muise, F. Lombardi. Second row N Doland, D.

Finding ways to increase attendance at games and showing sports movies are other activities of the club. WRESTLING CLUB The Wrestling Club is divided into two groups from which the wrestling team is chosen. During club periods the members are given exercises, taught wrestling fundamentals, and engage in actual matches. Every wrestler, whether selected for the team or not, develops muscular coordination and a means of defense. JUNIOR VARSITY CLUB The lunior Varsity Club, open to all underclass boys interested in sports, has had much entertainment learning football tactics and using them to advantage during actual club games. The members discuss all sports as they come in season. SPORTS CLUBS ... tLy TWIRLING CLUB The girls oi this club learn the proper techniques of twirling and strutting. Next fall the best of them will be selected for the coveted positions of band twirlers. The girls practise what they have learned by marching and twirling to band music. The majorettes supervise the club and help the members learn. FENCING CLUB The Fencing Club, made up of ten boys, is organized to teach its members coordination of mind and muscle. Besides competing with other schools in saber and foil matches, the boys put on a much-looked-forward-to play in the auditorium each year. BOXING CLUB Through bouts held at club meetings, the boys in the Boxing Club are taught self-confidence, poise, and mental alertness. Although several of the boys desire to be Diamond Gloves contenders, the major aim of the club is to teach self-defense rather than to develop professional talent. SPORTS...

Although we lost all of our games, the team was always a threat to the best opposition because of its splendid aerial attack. With one of the lightest teams in Butler gridiron history, Captain Franco and the track star Garcia, aided by Davenport and Huber and supported by the linemen, led the team to several near victories. The team, composed mostly of seniors, gave their most outstanding performance against our traditional rival, Pompton Lakes.

As members of the Bergen County Interscholastic Wrestling League, the team has representatives in each weight class from ninty-four pounds to the unlimited division. These Butlerites fell victim to Leonia, Fair-lawn, Union, Lodi and Teaneck, but defeated Ramsey in their last match. T Lr. •Mlf. 4 c c SPRING SPORTS TRACK Butler's first track team proved that it was one to be reckoned with. Our trackmen finished second at the Seton Hall Relays. The next week at the Penn Relays, they captured first place in the one mile relay. After losing three regular meets, the team took three first prizes: the 440, the 880, and the mile relay, at the County Relays held at Dover. This was good enough to tie highly-favored Mountain Lakes for the County Relay Championship.

Water diverted from the Pequanoc River, supplemented by a small steam engine, furnished the primary motive power. Such items as hard rubber jewelry (now museum pieces), combs, pipe bits, syringes, surgical appliances, and hard rubber sheet were among the early products made there. The community around the plant has grown and benefited as the industry has increased in size. In 1880 the first Post Office was established and called Butler after Richard Butler, who was then President of the local company. In 1901 the Borough of Butler became incorporated and in 1903 the first High School was started so that better education might be made conveniently available. A High School education is quite usual today and many young people are taking advanced study along lines of their choice. Today industry has more demand for better educated employees. The American Hard Rubber Company is no exception in this respect, for among the younger employees one half have graduated from High School and one of each twelve has advanced training of some sort.
