Our class is much like the classes that have gone before. Our work is much the same as others, our trials and difficulties have been like theirsg and no doubt our ambitions and outlook upon the future are not unlike theirs when they stood where we now stand. However, it is our class and we are proud of it. We give no apology because it is no better. It is our class . . . , the one and only class . . . . and we take pride in it. We give you the graduating class of '43 and smile when we think how good it really 1S. In the fall of 1939 the Freshman Roster boasted eighty-three enthu- siastic seekers of learning, the largest class ever to enter the portals of that Citadel of wisdom-Butler High School. We took up our work with all the zest of eager young students, but when we commenced chanting amo, amas, amatf' our enthusiasm was somewhat diminished. The good fortune of always keeping so large a class as we had when we entered was not to be enjoyed. One by one they have dropped out for various causes until now at roll call we have but fifty-one, We greatly feel the absence of those who have left our company before the quest was completed, but as long as the number can be no greater we are happy indeed that it is no less. Moreover we are convinced that never have lights shone more brightly o'er fair women and brave men than they will on our com- mencement night. Our social attainment and activities extended into many fields. In- dividual initiative and team co-operation showed itself to be one of our assets at an early time in our development. Various members of our class joined those organizations for which they were eligible such as Blue Triangle, Hi-Y, Dough Girls and F. F. A. Clubs. Many members showed skill and talent in athletics and the fine arts. In the Junior year we sponsored the customary banquet for the preced- ing class. The banquet had a patriotic theme, fitting the perilous times, and it was judged a huge success. It was also our privilege to present a class play in each of our last two years. The Junior play was entitled Miss Smartyf' the Senior play was Don't Take My Penny. Both were worthy accomplishments. Above all, class organization must not be forgotten, for that was one of the most interesting and exciting events at the beginning of each of the four years. We were endowed with very capable leaders chosen from among our ranks. They performed their duties with a faithfulness that brought honor to themselves and the class. As Freshmen we were led by Carolyn Fanning. Her staff was composed of Kathryn Kandel, vice-presi- dentg Marilyn Houck, secretaryg Clark Springer, treasurer. ln the Sopho- more year Leo Haddix was elected presidentg Richard Hollinger, vice-presi- dentg Vera Houck, secretary-treasurer. When we were Juniors Gordon Page Eighteen Oberlin and Vera Houck performed the duties of president and secretary- treasurer respectively. Now we have Richard Hollinger as our president, Donald Webb, vice presidentg Vera Houck, secretary and Richard Frakes. treasurer. To lead us in patriotic work the student body chose Vera Houck as '!Miss Butler. She and her assistants directed our sale of War Bonds and Stamps, in which Butler High went 'Lover the top exceeding all estimates of the faculty. Various salvage campaigns were also sponsored. The years we have been together bind us into a solid group of friends. We shall be faced with the hurricane of war and our work against a com- mon foe must be well done. Imbued with the goldcn friendships formed, the excellent instruction received, we will put our happy school days behind to prove our worth to the world. Lynn Blackwell. CLHSS PROPHECY IT'S 1953 and I am in Grand Central Station waiting on a train. The war is over. Troops are returning from occupation of Europe. People are milling by. I think I will look and see who is getting off this train, My! What snappy uniforms! Why it's Col. Richard Frakes, Master Sgt. Bob Ridge and Commanding Officer, Don Webb. tDon never did intro- duce us to '4Rosie, the girl he used to skate the moonlight waltz with at The Silver Moon Skating Rink! There are some more former classmates. P. F. C. Raymond Slentz, Lt. Jack Yates, and good Buck Private Johnny Sherck. CI wonder if Raymond remembers way back in 1943 when, while riding with a classmate one night. he ran into another car. Strange!! I walked up to the depot clerk to ask about my train. The clerk was Richard Eakright. He reported that Jack Yates is still the same old wolf. Richard said that Johnny Sherck lost out in the race for Esther Spake's hand when Bob Ridge took over the situation. I wonder who that dignified well-dressed business man is? Why, Lloyd Carpenter! And he's head of the stock markets on Wall Street. Why, isn't that Gordon Oberlin who just brushed past me? There's Mayor Blackwell handing Mr. Carpenter the key to the city. Well, can you imagine that?- Opal Stuller and her brass band welcoming Mr. Carpenter to the city. Page Nineteen My train is about to leave-I'll get on. I guess I'll sit by these ladies and their children-my two old buddies, Joan and Vera! After exchanging hearty greetings I was introduced to their children and also learned the lucky gentlemen's name to be Dick Dove and Don Voss. Joan pointed out the window to a hospital which we were passing and said that Bob Ginder was the president of it. The beautiful big bridge leading to it she said was constructed by the Bryant Engineering Company. As we neared Chicago, a plane zoomed crazily over the train. Vera said it was Wendell Bell, a test pilot who after 500 crack-ups applied for a license. My two buddies left me at Chicago. I settled down in my .seat thinking I was left alone to continue my jour- ney to Long Beach, California, when the conductor, who had been eyeing me since I got on the train, stopped at my seat and said, Haven't I met you somewhere before? Then I recognized Myron Love. Myron sat down be- side me and boasted what a good engineer the train hadelater I learned that it was Earl Keller. Suddenly the train gave an awful lurch and every passenger, including myself, was thrown out in the aisle with the luggage on top of them. I struggled to get up while Betty Turner, eager to apply her first aid lessons on a victim, was tying my legs and arms in bandages. Betty said the acci- dent was caused by Garcile Smith, now a famous movie star, who had stalled her car on the tracks. As no one was seriously hurt, we proceeded on to Kansas City. I had two hours to pass there so I caught a taxi and went to the stage show up- town. Much to my surprise, the cast consisted of some of my old school- mates, such as Deloris Dailey with her magic violin-accompanied by Ber- dena Souder on the piano. The Ault twins Ruth and Ruby, were greatly appreciated when they sang The Best Tunes Of All Move To Carnegie Hall. The all-girl orchestra included Irene Ginder, lst bass player and Grace Hose, golden-voiced soprano. The show lasted longer than I thought and I raced back just in time to catch my train. I slumped exhaustedly into a seat when who should I see staring oddly at me but Norma Spake and Woodena Fifer. After we became acquainted with each other again, Woodena told me she and Norma were keeping Old Maid's Hall where they held a big party for all the old bachelors in the city, every week. As I grew tired of their constant chatter I excused myself and went to seek silence in the lounge room. There I met Theda Baldwin who told me she was enroute to the coast to sketch a picture of the President. As you remember, Theda was quite a gossip, so I gathered the news she knew. She told me Jean Naitzka and Josephine Schuller were working in Bob Ginder's hospital, Jean as chief dietitian and Jo as Superintendent of Nurses. We parted and I went to seek my room for the night. All went well until about 3 o'clock in the morning when a blood curdling scream came down the hall to my room. As I rushed out into the hall I ran into Mar- jorie Lott who also was trying to find out what was going on. Page Twenty We organized ourselves into a little company and adanced slowly down the corridor. A large crowd had gathered around a spot in the dining room. Laura Cline, a F, B. I. agent was investigating the mysterious murder of a business man enroute to San Diego. Among the crowd was Professor Richard Coll with his twelve Boy Scouts. Soon everything settled down and we all went back to bed. The next day was a grand day and as I sat in the Pullman car looking out the window, I saw a strange vehicle coming toward the train. It was a tank! Who was inside? Who else but Loyal Miller! I arrived at my destination around noon. When I jumped off the train I was confronted by Eileen Carpenter who had come to meet me. We stopped uptown to shop around a bit before dining. Eileen led me to an exclusive dress shop which was owned by Donna Olds. Donna re- vealed to me that Lucille Miller is modeling for MGM while her husband, Richard Hollinger, is designing clothes for the models. Also Donna Cosper is Fred Astaire's new dancing partner. We departed, much to my dislike and went to dine at The Club Ameri- can, the proprietor being Kathryn Kandel. The cute cigarette girl was Eloise Gearhart. I met Ellen Steckley there, a missionary who had just returned from the war theater in China. She said that Doris Dailey and Charlotte Wilson are out to get themselves a man as this is leap year. It was getting late so Eileen and I went to our hotel to hit what is commonly known as the hay. Eileen then contributed her bit of gossip by telling me of General Ruth May head of the WAAC's coming visit to Long Beach. Carolyn Fanning is now supervisor of an insane asylum near Pasadena. Keith Culler, one time million dollar play boy has settled down to become the president of the U. S. with Jerry Campbell as his secretary. Last but not least that Thelma Myers is the head of a big orphanage for stray dogs. Before I say goodbye, I want to leave this little poem with you: Here I am just about dead- I came to this hotel and went to bed Relieved but glad to hear and see The famous ol' class of '43! RUBY HOULTON Page Tiventgl-Ono CLQSS POEIVI TO A LOST DAY This is my song, my song, My song to a ceasing day That curling itself, Unfurling itself, Has tumbled itself away On silver-tipped laughter Of Youth's roundelay. And Life's intangible stream but flees On to Death's nocturnal seas, And mystic Time, for an eon or more Counts the short years of men One by one, Score by score. Now some will roam, And others stay home With Poverty's sobs-in the dark, And cruel Greed will feed Upon Truth's chastityg Some make static Wisdom And bright Wealth to be Gluttonous monarchs of men's destiny. The1'e'll be Optimists, dreamers, Pessimists, schemers, Strong men, weak men, And those with a Will Seeing Faith on the top Of a distant hill Men who will seek for their bread in the soil Laborers stretching their roots in the sodg Men who preach, Men who die, And the valiant ones The ones that find GOD. Will your coins be silver Silver or gold, Or black with rust and gray dust, And blighted with long years of mold? Silver, gold? Rust or dust? Dust or Gold? And this is my song, my song, My song to a ceasing day, And the answers lies Hushed-slumbering, lies In the laughter and sighs Of the rich caravan of Tomorrow's skies In the promised gold cloud-mist, Sky-thrown, and sun-kissed Into Tomorrow's Blue skies.

Page Tzveizry-Fiz'C BUTLER HIGH IN THE IVIHHCH TCD VICTORY No sooner did the State Superintendent of Public Instruction make the following announcement, It is imperative that every high school IMMEDIATELY mobilize its forces so that its educational program may serve the war effort to the maximum degree. It is essential that the mental, and physical potentialities, the emotional stability, the spiritual understanding, the democratic habits of living be considered from the standpoint of each boy and girl. than Butler High School immediately accepted the challenge and set about revamping its program in keeping with the above request, Each boy and girl, in the eleventh and twelfth grades was given a thorough physical and medical examination. Wherever defects were apparent, they were remedied, in so far as possible, by means of medical attention or the well developed physical fitness program which was instituted. Along with the medical and physical examinations, a battery of intelligence and educational tests was given with the idea of determining the ability of each student and the field in which that ability lay. Progress tests were given from time to time to determine the rate at which the students were working. As a result of these tests, Refresher Courses in Mathematics, Science and definite courses in Commerce were arranged. A War-Cabinet made up of representatives from each of the classes and the Deans of the school was organized and in each class a War-Council was set up to direct the activities sponsored by the War-Cabinet, e. g., Bond Sales, Scrap Drives, etc. Miss Vera Houck, of the Senior Class was chosen as Miss Butler to lead in the activities under- taken by the school. We realized that we were face to face with a critical situation in our Nation and were eager to do what we could. No one would want to do less. Students were encouraged to take the various examinations sponsored by the Federal Government for boys desiring advancement in the Army or Navy or for girls wishing to work in clerical positions for the government. It is with a feeling of pride that we look over the year's accomplishments and with a sense of duty and obligation that we plan for the days that are ahead. The students and faculty of Butler High School have been and will continue on the alert to carry forward any program that will advance the war effort and bring about a just and lasting peace. To that end we dedicate our strength, our resources, and if need be our lives.

ORCHESTRA THE ORCHESTRA, under the direction of Mrs. Stage, was first organized in 1935. There were only twelve members at that time, but the organ- ization included thirty members in 1940. It now has twenty-five members and meets every Thursday, however, the addition of another subject to the curriculum necessitated a change in the schedule which has somewhat hindered practice. For this reason, the organization has not followed its usual procedure of furnishing music for school plays and other activities. President .......... .... J ack Yates Vice-President ...... . . .

DURING the third week of school, Boys and Girls Glee Clubs were organ- ized. The boys meet on Tuesdays of each week and the girls on Wed- nesdays during the lunch hour. Miss Sarabelle Lehman is the director and Berdena Souder is the pianist There are 21 boys and 42 girls. Every year since 1939 the Glee Clubs have given an operetta but due to the war situation, no operetta was planned this year. Page Thirty!-Seven SENIOR PLHY .Q U... ..,, ,,,,,,,5 THE SENIOR CLASS presented the comedy, Don't Take My Penny, on the evening of December 16. This fascinating story of youth in its highest fling, is centered about Penny, a sixteen year old girl who is in the mildest sense, movie-struck. The excitement begins when Penny learns of a new novel about to be pro- duced and goes into the act of preparing herself for a career fthe day be- fore a tennis tournament in which she is enteredj. When the wild schemes of Greg and Kerry aided by Gram take place, more complications arise, which only add to those of Sally and the Hollywood publicity man. The climax comes when the real author of the novel arrives on the scene and does choose a star for his play--much to everyone's surprise. By this time Penny is ready for the quiet life of tennis, and Gram comes to the rescue of the family who is in despair. CAST OF CHARACTERS Sally-A maid with a purpose ...............................

Coach Jenkins guided the boys through eleven wins and eight losses. Waterloo blighted out high hopes for a second seizure of the sectional tourney crown in the second round of the tourney. Eight newcomers proved their ability and oomphed the prospects for the next year's team. Several second team members have been knocking at the door all season and promise to add power to the H43-447' Windmills. YELL LEADERS: Left to Right: Jim Sudborough, Janet Houck, Gene Snyder.

The response was good with over twenty boys reporting. In the initial meet of the season Butler showed promising strength, although they were nosed out by Garrett in a triangular affair there with Fremont also competing. In the next meet at Auburn, with Auburn and Concordia, Auburn proved a little too strong. Butler emerged in second place. The high-light of the season was the Corner Conference event, on April 21 to which Butler must play host and also try to retain her Championship. Sweeping twelve of the thirteen first places Butler won an overwhelming triumph. The final tabulation showed Butler had amassed 11092 points against 61 for Fremont, Waterloo 15 and Ashley 1413. In the Conference Meet two school records were broken. Wilbiii' Diehl raised the pole vault record to 10 feet 3 inches and the half mile relay team composed of Blackwell, Bellamy, Sherck, and Slentz lowered the time in that event to 1:19. Other first places were Diehl, high jump and broad jump, Upp, high and low hurdles, Slentz, 100 yd. dash: Sherck, 220 yd. dash, Blanchard, mile, Dielman, 880, Upp, Ridge, Dielman. Knox in the mile relay and Bellamy, shot put. Page Fifty-One lUNlOR HIGH BQSKETBHLL B 5.1! f!
