A PUBLICATION OF THE SENIOR CLASS BUTLER HIGH SCHOOL BUTLER NEW JERSEY PREFACE As we looked, last spring, at our school, we couldn't help being impressed by the growth of Butler High School, especially during the last few years. We felt we could best show this growth by using the tree analogy. So strongly did we feel, that we even changed the order of our book, putting the faculty first since they provided the necessary strength and encouragement. Next we placed the underclassmen, the newly-planted seeds, who needed—in order to develop completely—the varied experiences of the following three sections: activities, sports, school life. As a tree needs strong roots, good soil, abundant rain and sunlight, so a student requires a trained faculty, participation in sports, a well-rounded social life, and numerous activities. At the end of the book, the senior section shows the class of 1953 as the outgrowth of these different experiences. We have tried to express the growth a student attains at B.H.S. and the manner in which he attains this growth through our symbol of the growing tree. 1950 BOARD OF EDUCATION First row, left to right: Mr. tiruyn Giann, Mr. Fred Traflet, Mr. Charles Hempsted, Mr. Max Hussel-rath.

Changing . . . Expanding . . . Growing! These three words describe the Butler High School of 1952-53. The size of the school made possible numerous social activities, varied curricular offerings, and an enriched extra-curricular program. Since the enrollment of the school had increased to 1050, we needed two additional teachers and an assistant librarian. Two rooms which originally belonged to the grammar school became homerooms and high school classrooms. During the summer, most of the rooms received new paint jobs; new furniture modernized several rooms. Rooms 105, 312, and 314 added drapes which quickly and easily supplied the correct lighting for visual aids purposes. The business education department acquired two electric typewriters which enabled the students to further their commercial skill. The entire school benefited from the SRA Reading Accelerator, an electrical device to help students increase their reading speed and comprehension rate. This year Butler High School has truly changed, expanded and grown. Above: Francii Racke, at map, thou) Miss Struyk’s U. S. History II class uhere the threat of communism lies.

Encouraging democratic ideals of self-government and seeking new ways to achieve these goals were the aims of Student Council, the governmental organization of our school. The job of paying bills, writing business letters, and aiding the treasurer were the duties of a new council officer—the corresponding secretary and assistant treasurer. Since council is the only student organization permitted to raise money, they produced profits by selling refreshments at football games. Citizenship Service, instituted through the work of Miss Struyk, council adviser, and a student committee, stimulated much student interest before council placed hall guides in various sections of the school, to make the school a safer and better place for students to live and work . In December, the organization sponsored a tremendously successful Christmas Ball Drive. Classes participated by donating ornaments for the huge tree in the auditorium. Students welcomed the opportunity to attend dances after school, making the Shiny Penny and Buffalo Nickel” dances two worthwhile events.

HONOR SOCIETY INSPIRES GOOD-WILL One of the most commendable campaigns ever to be sponsored at Butler High School was the Children's Christmas Drive, under the auspices of the Honor Society, a group of seniors who qualify in traits of scholarship, leadership, character, and service. Seniors furthered the Christmas spirit by contributing clothes, toys, and other articles in good condition that would cheer less fortunate children, ages 6 months to 15 years. For practically a month. Miss Hawkins, adviser, and members of the organization remained after school many hours to sort and wrap the clothing. Representatives of the Honor Society delivered numerous articles to many unfortunate families in this region in time for Christmas.

[49 STUDENT PUBLICATIONS: A bigger and better Maple Leaf'—this was the promise of the editors of our school newspaper. Two additional pages included feature stories, novelty articles, and other detailed items of particular interest for the student body. The Maple Leaf staff realized the necessity for additional photographs due to the page increase and offered one dollar to each student who submitted a picture showing some interesting phase of life in Butler High School. All members of the junior and senior staffs labored actively to have their articles readied for press deadlines, so the Maple Leaf came out approximately every four weeks. In their big February issue. Maple Leaf editors surprised students with their superior two-page spread devoted to Senior Superlatives. Maple Leaf Apprentice Writers, composed of sophomores, worked earnestly throughout the year to learn fundamental techniaues of newspaper work. Those who showed promising ability looked forward to being the future editors and reporters of the paper.

After careful consideration, we decided on a growing theme—striving to compare those factors that a tree needs for proper growth to those required by a student in high school to develop maturity. Supported by the abundant finances of the business staff and abetted by an extensive pictorial coverage, the editorial staff worked adroitly to achieve a yearbook that reflected all the significant happenings at B.H.S. throughout the year. Feverish last minute organization of materials, before meeting deadlines, will be remembered as a time of anxiety, but of determined efforts for all. After our last section went to press in March, we impatiently awaited our staff dinner, when we would receive our Nuggets — filled with self-satisfaction that we had created a lasting record of an eventful year.

The Debating Club and International Relations Forum were two clubs devoted to encouraging ease and skill in speaking. Debating, advised by Miss Banta, Miss Chadwick, and Mr. DeLuke, assembled the first Thursday of each month to practice parliamentary procedure and engage in entertaining arguments and debates. Two interclass debates resulted in victories for the sophomore and juniors, and the outcome of the final debate— Resolved: That Chewing Gum be Forbidden in School —established the juniors as school champions. Forum, guided by Miss Belding, met weekly to hold stimulating discussions concerning current events, including national and international affairs. Thus, aside from fostering speech development, these two clubs helped members to understand the problems confronting them.

To foster good-will and friendliness among today's youth were the mutual desires of Girls' Service and Hi-Y. Girls' Service, a new club, sponsored a candy drive to befriend less fortunate children across the seas. Children at Camp of the Birches, in Oakland, extended their appreciation to this worthy group for presenting them with Christmas gifts. Hi-Y endeavored to encourage high ideals among young men and sent two delegates—Phil Pulis, elected to the governor's cabinet, and Sidney Waldron, boy senator from Morris County — to Princeton to prepare for the youth government program at Trenton. Associated with the National Hi-Y, the Butler Alpha Chapter had other representatives at the Atlantic City Arena Conference to participate in discussions concerning present day topics.

We'd like to express our appreciation to the Costume Club, Make-up Squad, Art Service Group, Stage Crew, and Construction Crew for their services in this play.” This was one of the familiar quotes directed to these groups before any production at Butler High School. The girls in the Costume Club gathered the necessary clothing needed to characterize the performers. The Make-up Squad worked on the casts and tried to achieve theatrical appearances for their subjects. Art Service members designed the programs for the performances and helped Miss Boehm create the proper settings by painting the scenery in the auditorium. Stage Crew boys ''painted the set with light and provided the needed sound effects. A new and helpful group this year, the Construction Crew, constructed the props for the plays and dances. The services extended by these groups helped to produce many successful presentations. STAGE CREW First row, left to right: Bud Freeman, Bob Tintle. Alfred Ebersbach, Jim Tintle, Neal Harris.

Whether its in the musical, dramatic, educational, or entertainment field in our school, we find that the service groups performed many of the tasks necessary to carry on the work. When you wanted to find that baseball, teen-ager, or space travel book, undoubtedly the Library Service Group helped you. This group checked books in and out, mended old ones, and helped Miss Curtis run the library efficiently. To meet the ever-increasing demands for magazine reading, last year we organized the Auditorium Library Service under the direction of Mrs. Bailey. These girls made it possible for everyone in study hall to read his favorite periodical without having to use the already overcrowded library. Aiding in the preparation of the Christmas program. Spring Concert, and the many other activities of the music department, Music Service members filed music and records and operated and cared for the equipment used in the department. For your entertainment. Radio Service, under the supervision of Miss Hayward, utilized the P. A. system to present plays and skits commemorating special holidays and school events. These service groups helped activities function during school; but other service clubs also aided after-school functions. Print Service, supervised by Mr. Rickman, made tickets for school dances, the senior play, Spring Concert, and also printed programs for the Christmas Festival, senior play, and concert. These clubs were only a few of the several needed to aid and inspire our school life. AUDITORIUM LIBRARY SERVICE Left to right: Arlene McKinnon, Pat Beam. Theresa Winkler.

The Food Service, under the su-ervision of Miss Kitchell, aided the school y serving at the annual faculty dinner and other school socials. If you were over seas and lying in a foxhole, you certainly would have appreciated the work of the Armed Forces Contact Group. Supervised by Mr. Cleary, the members kept in touch with the men in the Armed Forces, both here and abroad. They used a bulletin board for publicizing addresses, activities, and promotions of alumni. Another group deserving much credit was the Secretarial Service. Under the direction of Miss Benoy, the girls mimeographed six-weeks tests, wrote letters and typed for the teachers and school. They also listed, alphabetized, and filed records. The Test Service helped us check our knowledge of world affairs and spelling. This group, assisting Miss Belding and Mr. Mitchell, benefited us by working out and recording the marks of these weekly tests. Twenty girls in Club Service, under the direction of Miss Jaeckle, Mrs. Bailey, and Mr. Cleary, performed a vital service by taking care of attendance in clubs. Each club period the girls collected attendance slips and then checked on all absentees. At the close of a most successful year, students who had participated in these growing service groups felt a keen sense of accomplishment, and also realized they were better equipped for future responsi- AHMED FORCES CONTACT GROUP Left to right: Marian Drake, Ruth Abbott, Lillian Rundeck-er, Patricia Leech.

The fifteen students who represented the dance band or Kiel House Katz”, as they were commonly known, comprised one of the outstanding organizations in our high school. With their competent director, Mr. Harris, and student leader Bob Huxster, the band engaged in outside activities in addition to their school participation. After weeks of tryouts and practice, Mr. Harris finally chose sophomore Joan Urh-las and senior Lehman Mann as the dance band vocalists. Together with the dance band, they presented their annual assembly in February. The highlight in this year's program was the Wolverine Blues , performed by Bob Huxster, Les Prichard, John Mackey, Roger Gray, John Fredericks, Larry Edsall, and Mr. Harris, members of the Kiel House Kittens”. The band performed for school dances and supplied music for the senior play intermission. They also accepted invitations to play at outside dances. The dance band offered members opportunities to read different types of music and to gain more experience in group performances. Jean McEwan, Bob Huxster and Jim Tintle achieved the unusual distinction of four-year membership in the Katz. MUSICIANSHIP Sealed, left to right: Jerry Gormlcy, Keith Elvin, John Pa-n i, Julius Maros, Ruth Ter-hunc Standing: Bill Allen, Mr. Harris. In Butler High School, music has become an important factor in our lives. Because of this growing interest in vocal and instrumental groups, last year we organized two new clubs—-Boys’ Harmony and Musicianship. Boys' Harmony, directed by Mr. Ellard, consisted of thirteen boys interested in barber shop quartet singing. They practiced different kinds of harmonies along with their director, a fine bass. Some of the boys played instruments including the harmonica, accordion and ukulele for their own enjoyment and accompaniment. The Musicianship Club dealt, primarily, with advanced training in theory. Directed by Mr. Harris, the club acted as a supplement to the regular musical training which students received. This club was practical and worthwhile to any student wanting instruction in the fundamentals of theory and conducting. Students interested in music thus were able to obtain a more thorough knowledge in their special fields.

ACTIVE VOCAL GROUPS PERFORM The combined vocal groups, consisting of the glee club, boys' chorus and choir, made up the largest organization in our school. The total membership, of over two hundred and fifty, performed for programs, both inside and outside of school. The choir, the most active vocal group, started their presentations with an invitation to give their Christmas program at the Pompton Plains Women s Club. Jane Dilzer, Katherine Mann, and Lehman Mann were soloists at this performance. Lehman Mann, one of the outstanding baritones Butler has known, served as our representative to the New Jersey All-State Chorus last year. Lehman performed at the teachers' convention in Atlantic City and the concert given in Newark. In February eleven students, selected from our choir, sang in the Operatic Festival at Westfield. Jane Dilzer and Box Fox received the honor of singing a duet from Aida . Jane Dixon, Lois Mezey, Ann Lofsgaard, June Due, Lois Tintle, Bob Beyer, Lehman Mann, Bob Rath and accompanist John Fredericks also participated. John Fredericks, Ed Fredericks, and Gerard Pisani have done an outstanding job in assisting the choir and Miss Lafferty with their organ and piano accompaniments.

Outdoor life, fostered by the Junior Sportsmen clubs, became a year-round interest. In the fall, the 150 members, divided into five groups—two under Mr. Conklin and three under Mr. Hawkins— studied the state laws concerning conservation, wild game, and safety. Through two conservation assemblies, they also conveyed this knowledge to the rest of the school. As hunting season approached, the boys learned the proper methods of handling firearms. The first snow found them helping to feed the wild animals; in the spring they assisted game wardens in stocking the streams. At club meetings the boys prepared exhibits which they set up annually at the Butler Science Fair, the Butler Garden Club, and the Morris County Fair. As summer neared, the members of the club polished up their fishing skills for the annual J. S. A. field day contests. Below left: Bob and Lance Mills exhibit a day'l catch.

CLUBS A1U LANGUAGE STUDY Watching foreign movies, reading a menu written in a different language, and eating European styled food in New York were some of the ways the German and French clubs became acquainted with the language, customs, and people of their respective languages. Mainly for students of German I, the German Club, under the guidance of Mr. Kerr, participated in such games as Bingo in which the numbers were called in German and carried on a lively correspondence with students at the University of Heidelberg. Opened to all French students, Le Cercle Francais vitalized their meetings with illustrated slides, French stories, short plays and games. These activities under Miss Carlin's direction aided in the production of a French newspaper.

Boys who enjoyed athletics, but didn't have time for them after school, found the time in Recreation Club. It allowed the boys to compete in sports during school time. Under the direction of Mr. Ingold, they played baseball, soccer, basketball and horseshoes. Boys interested in learning the fundamental holds in wrestling acquired this knowledge from Mr. Caruso in Wrestling Club. The second semester the boys in the club divided themselves according to weight into different groups. The various groups were matched against one another. While wrestling in the matches, they applied the holds that they learned. Interested in obtaining poise, grace, self-confidence, muscular coordination, and at the same time enjoying yourself? Fencing Club offered these features to all girls either in regular club or after school practices. Mr. Carpenter instructed the groups. At the end of the season the girls fenced against other schools. The Officials' Club trained girls to be officials for girls’ gym classes and intramural athletics. Supervised by Mrs. Pier, the girls played and learned the rules of basketball, volleyball, softball and archery. Twirling Club, directed by Miss Bock, gave freshman and sophomore girls who wished to learn or improve their skill in twirling an opportunity to do so. Girls learned and practiced routines which they presented at an assembly program in May. Twirlers for the high school band were chosen from the club. With this varied program of activities each boy and girl had a chance to learn and also enjoy some sport. WRESTLING CLUR On mat, left to right: Roger Gray, Bob Mills, Gordon Banta, Joe SHenise.

The girls worked with materials of all kinds and constructed different articles. school nurse, and Mrs. Possien, a kindergarten teacher, the girls in the Baby Sitting club received a varied and complete course. They learned the care of the baby and young child, stories, games, basic essentials, safety regulations, and even used a real baby to demonstrate some of the techniques. At the end of the year, after passing a test, the girls received certificates showing they had completed the course successfully and were eligible for jobs in the future. They made pendants out of plastic, which contained within them small floral designs. Another group, directed by Miss Dennis, created useful articles from leather and yarn. The girls also enjoyed making different types of jewelry from shells and sequins. Both clubs showed girls how to be constructive and make use of various goods.

If you wanted to know how to become a charming and well-groomed hostess, you could find out by joining the Junior Miss and Foods clubs. Interested in the preparation of food or table setting? The Foods Club, advised by Miss Kitchell, devoted itself to girls who wished to invest mealtime with attractiveness, simplicity and orderliness. They learned color harmony, appropriateness, distinction, balance and proportion in table setting. The next step in becoming a charming hostess was to be well-groomed. The Junior Miss Club gave each member a personal analysis to aid her in selecting colors and clothes suitable for her. The club held a fashion show to show the girls how to dress properly for various occasions. The adviser, Mrs. Pomeroy, taught and demonstrated to the girls the proper method of applying cosmetics and other beauty hints. These clubs helped to make the girls better prepared to keep up their appearance and to entertain friends. JUNIOR MISS Seated, left to right: Joyce Morey.

For those students who are mathematically or scientifically inclined, the Math and Science clubs afforded the opportunity of investigating phases of these fields which could not be presented in the regular classroom. There were two Math clubs this year, both under the direction of Mr. McCarthy, one for underclassmen and one for the more advanced upperclassmen. In addition to games and puzzles, the members worked with practical instruments useful in the field of surveying. The Science Club, directed by Mr. Carpenter, posted information of new developments on the Hall of Science bulletin board and contributed largely to the Science Fair. Included in their activities was a trip to New York where they viewed Cinerama, the new three-dimensional movie.

Interest in the Chess Club, which last year admitted only freshmen, became so avid that the club expanded into the up-perclass level. After a semester’s coaching from Mr. Perfetti and Mr. Franzetti, the boys played elimination rounds in a chess tournament. The winners secured an award and were proclaimed chess champions. In addition to learning the fox trot, jitterbug, waltz and polka, the beginning students of the dancing clubs gained confidence for participating in social functions. The popularity of this club necessitated the expansion into five divisions under the direction of Miss Fox, Miss Chadwick, Miss Habbart, Mr. Ellard, Miss Brahs, and Mrs. Jackson. DANCING CLUB Left to right: Ken Rhinesmith, Judy Lohrey, Carolyn Bock, Robert Babcock, Carol Sherman, Richard Diorio. [73] I Strike up the music! The band has begun!

Majorette Marilyn Vreeland led this imposing group; 16 twirlers, 89 musicians, and two flag bearers covered more than half of the field in various formations. Three afternoons a week band members practiced their routines and favorite college songs along with our own ' Down the Field”. In December the band came inside and harmoniously rocked the seventh period study hall with rehearsals for assembly programs and the spectacular Spring Concert. Last June the band’s laborious efforts were rewarded by an invitation to play at Princeton’s Reunion. Representing the Class of 1922, Butler’s band joined with more than sixty high school and college bands from all over the state.

ED SMITH SETS The 1953 basketball team produced Butler’s greatest individual scorer in Ed Smith. Although he played in two games less than the former record holder, Ed amassed a total of 245 points to overshadow Tom Edge’s 1952 record of 235. Ed was the whole show for the Bulldogs; he shone especially bright in the last six games of the season when Butler broke even against very stern opposition. Other outstanding performers for Butler included four-year men Ray Basley and Noel Conklin and junior Greg Mazza. This year Mr. De Paso coached both the varsity and J. V. fives. The 1953 season brought to the fore a well-balanced and promising J. V. squad. The team was fast and had plenty of height. Prospects for next year should be bright as these boys continue the skills gained this year. Conklin goes high on center tap. Seated, left to right: Ray Basley.

This veteran outfit faced the toughest schedule in years, including county, Lakeland Conference, and state meets. Manager Bob Linares was the man behind the scenes, checking equipment and keeping score at the fencing matches.

[85] JENNINGS PITCHES BUTLER With a 10-2 record, Butler continued its winning ways in the 1952 season by copping the Lakeland Conference title for the second straight year. Seven experienced varsity men helped produce another championship combination with Dick Jennings and Jerry Lacey taking care of the pitching duties. Hits bounded from the bats of three stars. Joe Wyble hit .453, Tom Edge finished with .440, and Dick Jennings had a .432 average. For the fourth straight year, Joe Wyble, at second, and Tom Edge, at short, covered the keystone position. Joe Wyble, Tom Edge, Dick Jennings and Ronnie Miller received All-Conference recognition. With five lettermen returning, Coach Ingold is looking forward to another eventful season.

Students finish palm trees and orchids in a successful attempt to convert our gym into Blue Hawaii . Floaters, dressed tn traditional Hawaiian costume, check wraps of arriving guests. Escorts check in as dates, drawn by the music of Jimmie Grim me s’ Orchestra, hurry ahead. Hungry coupler wait impatiently before attacking Mr. Vuh Driel’s beautifully prepared smorgasbord. Topping off a delicious dinner, juniors and their gucn indulge in a Hula Delight (chocolate nut undue) or a Waikiki Bombshell (pineapple nut sundae). One of the many ways in which our school provided students with the opportunity to grow was through our Junior Prom. The anticipation of a big evening, the grown-up feeling of formal attire, and dancing to a name band offered many students their first experience in a formal social atmosphere. Last year the juniors' planning, scheduling, and decorating under the supervision of Miss Boehm, Miss Carlin, and Prom Chairman Ann Jeanette Ranney brought Blue Hawaii” to Butler. Our gym, complete with the hula” music of Jimmie Grimmes' Orchestra, resembled a Hawaiian Island; the physics lab became a soda fountain; our cafeteria served as the dining hall for a delicious smorgasbord; 105 was converted into a hotel lobby where guests could retire to watch TV or have their pictures taken. The development of social grace and poise that students acquired from attending the Prom rewarded the committees and advisers for the many hours of work required to insure such a memorable evening. Dancing climaxes a wonderful evening. [91] Above: With choral background, baritone Lehman Mann presents his rendition of You’ll Netcr Walk Alone”.

All was quiet— then soft strains of music commenced and filled the auditorium. The floral decorated stage became a radiant mass of pastels as the choir and glee clubs presented their part of the program. The band opened the second half with a rousing march. Under the direction of Miss Lafferty and Mr. Harris, the students started to learn the selected compositions in January. As spring approached, the tasks of designing programs, printing tickets and combining the groups for the finale, completed the preparations for the big event.

SCIENCE FAIR Loud bangs, the buzzing of motors, and an air of excitement were common happenings at the second annual Science Fair. The first fair, held only in the chemistry lab, proved to be such a success that the second fair was given additional space in the physics lab and the gymnasium. The fair developed under the watchful eyes of Mr. Carpenter, the science faculty, and a student committee. It enabled budding scientists to demonstrate different phases of their chemistry, biology, and physics studies. Judges Robert Dawson of Bell Testing Laboratory; Dr. Charles Honig, member of the American College of Physicians and Surgeons; and Dr. Thomas Tully, associate professor of chemistry at Newark College of Engineering selected three trophy victors. Honorable mention winners included Peggi King and Ellen Taylor for their futuramic city Bill Miller for his demonstration of color blindness, Ed Fredricks for his erupting volcano, Harvey Davenport and Barbara Eric-son for their display of fruit flies, and Bob Elliot for his Tecla coil. Herb Gliick displays his model of the human digestive system. Ellen Taylor assembles her futuramic city for student spectators. HONOR PUPILS ENJOY TRIP; The Honor Trip, which was started in 1947, rewards students for high scholastic achievements. That the trip acts as an incentive for pupils to improve their marks has been proved by the increasing number of students able to go each year. In 1952 one hundred and twelve students were eligible for the trip which had to be taken in two sections. The first part, including a guided educational tour of the Port of Newark and Newark Airport, a show at Radio City and dinner at the Down-Under Cafe in Rockefeller Center, took place on June 10, 1952. After dinner the group toured the Herald-Tribune Building and saw the Early-Bird” edition printed. At the end of the tour, they received a copy of the paper before it came out on the streets. On September 13, 1952 the honor group experienced a thrilling airplane ride, courtesy of Eastern Airlines. Excited students toured the area between La Guardia Airport and Butler by plane. Each honored Butlerite appreciated and enjoyed the educational values of these unusual trips. Above: Students, on inspection trip, enter Administration Building at Newark Airport. EVERYBODY ENJOYS DANCES Student Council sponsored several dances for the enjoyment of Butler students. Council members, directed by Annabelle Keckeissen, dance chairman, and Nancy Van Luvender, social chairman, worked hard on plans; they covered lights, decorated railings, hung streamers, set up chairs, and even painted the piano. Council members also played records and served refreshments at the dances. Council made special efforts to produce an outstanding Christmas Dance. A real sleigh, filled with gifts, occupied the middle of the floor to carry out the theme of sleighbells and help create a Winter Wonderland . Pine boughs glistened with artificial snow and taffeta dresses rustled as couples danced to the music of the Vibro Quartet. For the Sadie Hawkins Dance, Council turned the gym into a Dogpatch scene. The girls invited the boys; they made corsages of vegetables and candies for their dates and enjoyed square dancing. To give students a varied program of social activity, Council reintroduced afternoon dances this year.

Tall cardboard cacti, a huge steer’s head, loud plaid shirts, dungarees, and cotton dresses all helped to create the atmosphere for Desert Round-Up . Under the hundreds of shiny stars, everyone square danced to old favorites like Duck for the Oyster and learned many new calls. As a special attraction, Mr. Harris Mr Johnstone, Mr. Ellard, and Mr. Nees formed a quartet and harmonized on many popular songs; Lehman Mann sang Love and De-votion” The refreshments, cider and cupcakes baked by the teachers, ended an enjoyable evening. [98] Freshmen adorn walls of gym with ghosts and pumpkins. Dressed in a gay array of costumes, the freshmen stepped into the gymnasium which was festooned with huge paper ghosts and eery crepe paper spider webs for their annual Hallowe’en Party. An unusual number of pairs attended, judges awarded special prizes for the most original costume to James Worden and Tommy Gaylord who posed as Mr. and Mrs. on wobbly stilts and for the funniest costume to Judy Lohrey and Carol Sherman who dressed as a huge pumpkin. Enthusiastically the party-goers entered the relay race in which participants had to run with one foot on a large piece of newspaper. Exhausted from the games, the freshmen reviewed their evening of fun and entertainment over doughnuts and cider.

Above: Mrs. Bramson: That settles it; nou you’ll hate to go! Suspense that made you jump from your seat . . . Horror that gave you goose-bumps . . . Shrewdly lightened by comedy ... A real first-rate triumph!” These were the comments from the newspapers and highly appreciative audiences who crowded Butler's auditorium for the annual senior presentation on November 20 and 21, 1952. The cast, directed by Miss Boehm, presented an unusual crime melodrama, Night Must Fall . Dora, Mrs. Bramson's maid, introduced Dan, a bellboy in a near-by hotel, to her employer. Mrs. Bramson, immediately charmed, added Dan to her household. Olivia, her unhappy niece, traced a murder to Dan and then shielded him. Dan plotted the murder of Mrs. Bramson for her money. The final scene, when the police took him away to be hanged, left Olivia relieved, but desolate. The tremendous build-up of suspense heightened by the electrifying chords of the organ climaxed a most successful production. SENIORS PRESENT Above: Dora: My gentleman friend, mum; he's here!

DECEMBER Through the unceasing and untiring efforts of students and advisers the vocal and instrumental groups presented an impressive December Festival. Lehman Mann set the Christmas mood by singing O Holy Night as the audience entered the auditorium. After the processional Land of Hope and Glory , the instrumental groups began with a series of Nativity selections. As an innovation the vocal groups presented an illustrated Musico-Choral Drama. The program ended with the recessional As With Gladness Men of Old . This year our Christmas windows resembled Currier and Ives prints. Art students demonstrated their artistic ability as they designed the center windows of all the front rooms. These beautiful window scenes and the unusual arrangement of the musical program made Butler's 1952 Christmas an outstanding one.

Senior teachers and council representatives were: 208, Miss Hawkins, Anita Anderson, and Marian Rebele; 209, Miss Shapiro, Gail Baumann, and Jerry Gaylord; 210, Miss Bock, Ann Jeanette Ranney, and Ed Parmee; 212, Mr. De Luke, Frank Rogers; 306, Miss Belding and Mr. Perfetti, Joyce McCoppen and Merna Van Etten; 312, Miss Struyk, Millie Keller, and Jane Meyer. Homerooms 209, 210, 212, and 312 obtained 100% student organization membership. In their magazine campaign the class reached a high of $3,334. The top homerooms were: 212, $1,264.05; 208, $1,108.90 ; 209, $810.10. Homerooms 208, 212, and 312 had 100% participation in the sales. Late in December the seniors chose Ann Jeannette Ranney as their delegate to attend the D. A. R. Pilgrimage in Trenton. In January the junior-senior debate found the seniors upholding the affirmative side of the topic Resolved: That the Atom and Hydrogen Bombs Should Be Outlawed by International Law. Jane Dixon, Joyce Day, and Pat McPhee spoke. Joyce Day gave the rebuttal; Claire Foulkes was the alternate. Right: Jane Dixon, vice-president, discusses senior trip plans with Mr. Van Vliet.

NUGGET STAFFS THANK DUR f D This Tree Tapping starts at dawn when the rubber latex flows best With a special knife about one-tenth of an inch of the outer bark is removed The cut is widened each day so that the milk-like latex can run down into the cup. Natives gather the latex in pails. The most productive trees yield 20 to 25 pounds of rubber a year The liquid latex is carried to collecting stations in pails suspended from shoulder sticks. Notice how the land around the trees is kept clean and free of weeds that might rob the fertility of the soil. AMERICAN HARD Grows In Malaya The latex is dumped into tanks where acid is added and stirred and within a few minutes the latex coagulates (solidifies). Notice that only crude, simple equipment is used After the latex coagulates it is washed and rolled into sheets with mills resembling large clothes wringers. The sheets are washed, hung on rods to dry in the sun and pressed into bales for shipment to factories to be made into many useful things.
