BUTLER HIGH SCHOOL — BUTLER, NEW JERSEY Art Editor Activities Editor Senior Editor Sports Editor Faculty Editor FOREWORD “Our purpose is to cultivate in the largest possible number of our future citizens an appreciation of both the responsibilities and the benefits which come to them because they are Americans and free. 2 James Bryant Conant TABLE OF CONTENTS Faculty and Administration Seniors 14-41 42-71 Underclass 72-95 Athletics 96-115 Activities 116-151 3 Advertising 152-172 RICHARD F. SCHNORRBUSCH 1933-1968 THE PROFILE OF A HUMANITARIAN A dark cloud hung low over Butler High School on Monday, December 2. It was with shock and disbelief that the Administration, Faculty, and Students learned of the death of Mr. Richard Schnorrbusch. Mr. Schnorrbusch was a fine teacher who was deeply dedicated to his profession. His teaching methods were proficient, resourceful, and effective. He insisted upon quality because he felt, “That’s what they’re here for.” Fair in his judgment, Mr. Schnorrbusch had respect for the feelings and the opinions of others. He strongly believed in, and practiced, the theory of democracy. An argument was never settled, or an issue decided upon, until all viewpoints were examined. In settling an issue, the majority always ruled even if their decision was contrary to his own views. Likeable in character, Mr. Schnorrbusch possessed a great love of life. Often, he was seen walking happily down the hall, smiling and sometimes having a friendly word with those passing by. Kindness and consideration for all people, were two of the fine qualities he possessed. Mr. Schnorrbusch readily helped those who sought his aid and advice. Another of his attributes was a sense of responsibility, which he felt vital and important for all to acquire. Mr. Schnorrbusch will be sadly missed, but not forgotten. The shock and disbelief will disappear in time, but not the feeling that someone very dear and important is missing. Now we must start where he left off and follow the fine example he has set for all of us. In doing so, we shall be creating the greatest tribute that could ever be paid to him. Mr. Schnorrbusch greatly admired John F. Kennedy. One of John Kennedy’s favorite verses is contained in a scene from “Camelot.” This verse has been used in describing the late President, however, it could also describe Mr. Schnorrbusch. “Don’t let it be forgot That once there was a spot For one brief shining moment That was known as Camelot.” Mr. Schnorrbusch first came to Butler in 1961 to teach, and made an immediate mark through his vitality, good-nature, and obvious interest in his students and subject. He left in 1962 to further prepare himself by working on his master's degree at Columbia University, but returned the following year to resume his career at Butler. Many of the Seniors can remember their freshman year in Mr. Schnorrbusch’s Social Studies classes and can appreciate the time, effort and stimulating thought he offered. He was never too busy to help a student who wanted aid — or needed it. Over fhe years many Seniors were instructed thoroughly in the fundamentals of government in Mr. “S” ’s U. S. History I and II classes. He had a deep desire that his students be informed and concerned citizens. He also wanted them to be concerned human beings. We could never forget the enthusiasm that swept through his four U. S. History II classes when we learned we were foster parents to two boys and two girls. A Hopi Indian girl from New Mexico, a boy from Tanzania, a Peruvian Indian boy and a Filipino girl will all have a chance to develop physically and mentally in a way they never would have, without this aid. Mr. Schnorrbusch’s interest in young people, and his desire to help them has inspired his classes and left an indelible mark on the school. Many yearbook staffs remember Mr. Schnorrbusch for the driving energy and the stubborn determination he showed as their advisor. We all carry vivid memories of him running through the halls, directing the photographer or lecturing editors on the responsibilities of their positions. All differences were resolved with the climax of the year’s activities — the Publications Dinner — and the mutual pleasure with the result — the NUGGET. 6 In obtaining an education, a student must assume certain responsibilities, such as . . . applying the skills which one is taught, and doing research in the library. In the age in which we live, it becomes more apparent that responsibility plays an important part in our society. Youth, therefore, must accept this responsibility if he is ever to develop his character before entering the adult world. With the guidance of the administration and faculty, the students at Butler High have learned the values of what respoasibility is to the individual. Therefore, the Nugget Staff realizes this importance and has portrayed the student in his academic and social activities which make him become a more responsible person both to himself and to his school. In obtaining an education, a student must assume certain responsibilities. He must come prepared for each day's work. Most important of all he must show an interest in learning. The student who does this will benefit greatly from his educational opportunities. Academics, however, is only one part of school life. The student becomes more involved when he joins clubs or becomes part of a team in sports. In this way he gives service to his school and also makes himself a more responsible person. The Nugget Staff Is also aware that a student is not expected to be serious all the time; youth is also here to enjoy himself. Therefore, we have tried to portray the student in both his academic and social activities which aid him in becoming a better individual. learns to work with others, takes attendance in study hall, Although our academic work plays the major role in school, whether it be in service to the school, youth is also here to enjoy himself, in playing with the band. Academics is fun as well as serious; youth also enjoys himself.__________________ or just by sitting and thinking. w g;A 2'V 'H % A ’ 5J. i m Rjf- tfvfe Am' f; m ■ Vv iW w fj wjf ® ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY ADMINISTRATION ■ jr W ______ml FACULTY ADMINI MR.

PAUL MAGGIO Mathematics Butler High’s Mathematics Department offers as its curriculum Math I through V, which are cumulative courses, designed for the college bound students. High school arithmetic and business mathematics improve the mathematical knowledge of the non-college bound. Boys’ and Girls’ practical math, which are separate courses, are designed as courses of immediate need, but are not meant for specialized math students. Calculus prepares students and is a foundation for all future engineers, scientists and mathematicians. Algebra and intermediate algebra are also offered. MR. RICHARD ROSNER 22 A foreign language is a contact with other people and cultures. It opens minds to the existence of other ways of seeing and doing. Therefore, the Language Department offers for students: Spanish, French, Latin and German. The teachers show that it is important to learn to speak the language, but also to impart the thrilling experience of real communication with other human beings. Foreign Languages 24 MRS. ERMA WHITMORE 25 MRS. HELEN SEDLACK . v • The Music Department offers major courses on 1 j four levels, Music I through IV. Instrumental instruction and choral training for which the student receives academic credits, are also given for those who request this type of music study. The department is set up to provide for the cultural enrichment of all students as well as for vocational training. Opportunity is provided for studying, listening, creating, and performing. The performing groups include Die Meister-singers, Boys’ Chorus, Girls’ Glee Club, Troubadours, Orpheus Singers, Euterpeans, and Dominant Nine, choral and instrumental assemblies, band and dance band, (Kiel House Kats). 26 MR. JOHN MALLINSON MR. JOSEPH KLEINCHESTER, JR. MRS. LOUISE BAUMAN Department Chairman Art Since art is an unavoidable part of our daily lives, an education without the arts is incomplete. For this reason, Butler High’s Art Department offers such courses as basic and advanced art, arts and crafts, and art survey. We can’t get away from the shapes, colors, and styles of our world. Art helps students to enjoy, understand and to evaluate all art forms. Besides learning to work with his hands, the art student must become acquainted with ideas about art, and about its materials and processes. Only then will he be able to become a creative and intelligent artist. MISS PAMELA PETERSON 27 MR. MICHAEL T. DI ANGELIS Department Chairman MR. C. GORDON JOHNSTONE Industrial Arts The courses offered are Industrial Arts I through V, Mechanical drawing I through III, Shop drawing. Electronics I and II, and Graphic Arts. Drafting, electronics and auto mechanics are geared to give students an adequate background to enable them to secure employment in these fields. The department is operating at full capacity with all areas constantly in use. They are evaluating department offerings and have long range plans that would involve additional unit shops in metal and graphic art. They also hope to encourage more girls to take mechanical drawing. 28 MR. GEORGE BOUGHTON MR. GEORGE BIEMER MR. DAVID VANDERBUSH MR. CHARLES ESSIGS MR. STEPHEN HELMSTADTER MR.

A Class For All Seasons Class of 1969 Freshman Season: We entered Butler with the age old fear of being initiated by the upper classmen. Some of us were spared from custom, others were sacrificed for the sake of tradition. The journey through Butler High started out in the auditorium where we received our homeroom locations. From then on, we were on our own, and wandered aimlessly through the hallways in search of our next class. We found new friends, new teachers, different subjects, and new concepts of life. After the first few days we soon realized that, Butler High offered a chance to develop and accept new and challenging responsibilities. The football games, pep rallies, dances, athletic and scholastic activities, enabled us to cast off our insignificance, and become recognized as an essential ingredient in the student body of Butler High. Under the leadership of class president James Florence, the Freshmen had taken the first of four steps in building a strong foundation for their high school careers. Sophomore Season: The proud Sophomores finally conditioned to high school life, enhanced the school year with new and colorful ideas, and desired to carry out the traditions of B.H.S. Engaged in such activities as the Sophomore Hop, J.V. sports, and student council, the Sophomores were able to take an active part in Butler High’s stimulating school life. After meeting with our guidance counselors, we realized the importance of planning for our future vocations. The subjects were rougher; the work load was heavier; and the study halls seemed shorter by the end of the year. The habits we developed in this season of school life would help us to cope with the two remaining years left in Butler High. Junior Season: For some of us who danced through the rhythm of our Freshman and Sophomore years, the Junior season was compounded by exotic homework assignments and heavier work loads. Given the chance to romp on the playgrounds of laboratory sciences, many of us were subjected to chemical warfare in chemistry class. Entering a new stage in physical and mental development, the nervous Juniors prepared to attack the college boards admissions tests with general knowledge and educated guesses. We managed to release our nervous energy by participating in various school activities. Such events as the Junior-Senior Prom, and a chance at varsity sports, created a happy canvas of memories for most of us. The season of the Junior was not the end of our high school adventure, but surely marked the assumption of a greater portion of the responsibilities. Senior Season: Most of us were possessed with the power of Senior status, and quite frequently made the underclassmen do our bidding. Although we were busy listening to symphonies of good advice from guidance counselors, we ourselves discovered that thinking, was the best way to travel through the Senior season. The time was coming when we had to make a decision on planning for a future. There were many events to divert our minds from this pressing decision; the sounds of coming dances, football games, prom, and Senior magazine drive. The Senior class would like to thank the scores of unknown parents who helped reach the desired financial goal. The spirit of Butler High past would vanish for some of us, and yet others would be unhappy to leave. We tend to be embarrassed by this sentimentality, but some of us are caught by the emotion. We’ve sailed through the blue and gold in four colorful seasons; and are we, prepared to accept the sighting of new land?

JBRARY SERVICE JBRARY SERVICE JBRARY SERVICE JBRARY SERVICE JBRARY SERVICE Library Service in 1937 Library Service plays an important part in aiding the student body. Their main function is to assist the librarians in their endless job of stamping, repairing, and putting away books. Under the able guidance of Miss Curtis, the student librarians learn the procedures concerning the functions of a library and are prepared to handle almost any situation in this field. Since much time is involved performing these services, students are at work both during and after school hours. The Library Service is constantly working to help Miss Curtis keep the library running smoothly and efficiently.

The school year 1968-1969 is over. For the Nugget Staff it has been a year of learning the values of responsibility in terms of planning the book, completing layouts and meeting deadlines. The editorial staff of the Nugget also realizes that we would never have met our responsibility to the school without the aid of many individuals. We would like to thank especially our three typists, Kathy Roach, Bonnie Wachter and Sherry Dunn, who so generously gave up their time to assist us. Another word of thanks goes to our art staff. Jo Krauss and Mary Becker did an excellent job of putting their artistic talent to work throughout the book. I, personally, as editor-in-chief, would like to acknowledge some of the faculty members who came to our aid. A note of thanks goes to Miss Athay for letting us use her Social Studies Office as another Nugget Office; to Miss Giles and Mrs. Jackson, for their constant moral support; and above all, to benevolent Mr. Sippie, who so kindly let this humble editor-in-chief be excused from his inspiring English class to meet with the publisher. On behalf of the entire staff, I would like to express our sincere appreciation to our advisors, Mr. Kleinchester, Mr. Rathyen, and Mr. Koerner. They dedicated an endless amount of time and energy to make the 1969 Nugget a yearbook in which the student body can take pride.
