Kmrrorz McCnonY Dedication For his loyalty and faithfulness to our class, and because of his untiring effort in helping us to publish our an- nual, we, the Seniofrs of 1947, dedicate our annual to Mr. Kenton MCCT0711. ..3.. 3111 Hlvmnrium ' ' - -, if V: i DUANE CATHER As a tribute to a beloved classmate who left us when a Sophomore, we include this Memorial. --4.- Administration The School Board MR. RALPH MUTZFELD is president of the school board, of which he has been a very active member for the past ten years. In addition to his duties on the School board, Mr. Mutzfeld helps to manage a large hardware business. In his spare time he enjoys playing his cornet. And he is also quite a capable golfer. MR. C. J. MAXTON, another capable man, has served as secretary of the school board for the past six years. He owns and operates a local auto agency. When he is not busy in his office or on duty as secre- tary, he, like Mr. Mutzfeld, enjoys a game of golf. He is also one of the top bowlers in Butler. His vacations, however, are spent in hunting up North. DR. C. B. HATHAWAY takes time from the busy routine of curing peoples' ills to serve as treasurer of the school board. He has served in that capacity for the past six years. As a hobby he collects antiques, and is keenly interested in local history. He also spends many of his vacations hunting in the North. And he is one of our most faithful basketball fans. MRS. LOUISE SPAKE is the very ef- ficient clerk of the school board and serves in the same capacity in the school office. She has held that position for the past six years. She enjoys bowling and puts this exercise into practice weekly. -5- Superintendent Of the members of the graduating class, I hope it may be said that you have studied with a purpose and goal in mind. To the undergraduates it must be said, that to strive without a punpose or goal in mind is folly. Nothing has ever been accomplished by promiscuous endeavor. The senior class has chosen for its motto, Steadfast in the Pursuit of Knowledge. The motto would mean more if it were to read, Steadfast in the Pursuit of Knowledge for the Advancement of Mankind and our Civil- ization. If we do not have a purpose of this nature and we are alble to gain a great amount of knowledge which may be used to destroy instead of to build,'we and our civil- ization may be destroyed by our own folly. Through the study of the sciences, much knowledge has been acquired which may be used either to heal the physical body of man or may be used to destroy it. We are living in an age in which it is possible for an entire nation to be completely annihilated in the matter of a few hours. Therefore, it is im- perative that we learn as early as ,possible that the ultimate goal of each student should be study for the benefit and advancement of our fellow man. -7.- PAUI.

At first it was hard for us to adjust ourselves to our dif- ficulties as well as our duties in our new surroundings. Within two or three weeks, though, we became acquainted with the daily routine. We organized our class by electing officers. Junior Price had the honor of be- coming our first President. As Freshmen we were permitted to participate in a variety of activities such as Glee Club, F. F. A., Dough Girls, Junior and Senior Band, Baseball, Track, and Basketball. As we began our second year we were somewhat smaller in number. Several students had dropped out for various reasons. Those of our class who were eligible had the privilege of joining the Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y. We again elected officers, with Elvin Lee Griffin, President, Clarence Harter, Vice-President, and Kathryn Casebere, Secretary-Treasurer. In the Junior year, our class- was only thirty-five in number. During our previous vacation, Duane Cather left us to enter the World of Ever- lasting Peace. For this year our officers were Clarence Harter, Presidentg Lee Carpenter, Vice-Presidentg Elvin Lee Griffin, Secretaryg and Reynold Johnson, Treasurer. Some students had the pleasure of showing their ability as actors and actresses. The Junior play, Almost Summer, was under the direction of Mr. Francis E. May. With pleasure, we became the hosts and hostesses of the Junior-Senior Reception. We used a Dutch theme. Having completed our third year, we looked forward to our annual three-month's vacation and our last year in Butler High. Thirty-three students returned to continue our last course of education at dear old B. H. S. Our class officers were Elvin Lee Griffin, Presidentg Armand Sicard, Vice-President, Reynold Johnson, Secretary, and Clarence Harter, Treasurer. Clarence Harter was also chosen as editor-in-chief of our annual. The Senior play was a farce-mystery entitled, Murder in Re- hearsal. Once again, a number of the class revealed their histrionic talents with the aid of Mr. Francis E. May. The Senior class was also very for- tunate this year in lbeing able to attend sessions in the House of Repre- sentatives and the Senate at Indianapolis. It was a treat which I am sure we won't forget. We Seniors have been fortunate to graduate from such a grand school as Butler's. We have enjoyed it in spite of the hardships we have had dur- ing these past four years. As we leave, and others enter, we wish them a fond farewell and hope that they appreciate B. H. S. as we did. -Roselyn Thiel. -14- The Shape oi Things To Come . While I was sitting beside the cheery fire in my old home in Butler on one of those cold, blustery nights so characteristic of mid-winter, my thoughts gradually drifted to my old schoolmates. I arose from my chair walked over to the book case, and took down my old annual, published by the Class of '47. Perusing through the book, I saw all of my old classmates as they were then. I know that in the passing of the years all of them have changed, some more than others. It has been my pleasure to meet some of them during the intervening years. The others I have often wondered about. Several are still residents of Butler. Reynold Johnson is now doing very well in the old established firm of Johnson and Son, Morticians. Armand Sicard is president of the internationally known Butler Company. Bill Schimpf is now chief engineer of the new Douglas Aircraft Division which was just built in Butler. And Marceline Robbins is head of the recently completed Butler Memorial Hospital. In the area surrounding Butler live the nationally famous Three Mus- keteers of the Soil, Lyle Call, Frank Walters, and Russell Lyon, Jr. Pur- due again, for their tenth consecutive year, has picked their farms as the Ideal Farms of the Year. Ralph Jennings was runner-up in this contest. And another famous Butlerite, living near Auburn, is Wendell David. He is a prosperous potato grower, and they say he is now worth 2,000,000 bushels of potatoes. While I was still leafing through my annual, there was a knock at my door. Before I could answer it, in walked Hal Sudborough, my old friend and classmate. I had seen him only twice in the ten years since we gradu- ated. When he saw my annual, he mentioned that he had seen many of our old classmates on his travels with his orchestra. He said he had come to Butler for a rest after a tour of the United States with his famous orchestra. He said that while he was in New York he had met Roselyn Thiel, a world renowned actress, who is starring in the current Broadway hit, Her Father's Secret. He also had seen the fabulous Alice Knox, who is said to have broken the hearts of men from New York to Paris and back again. Her escort, believe it or not, was Harry Van Wye. He had just divorced his eighth wife and was in close compeition for the title of The Divorce King!! Hearing that he was in New York, Violet Provines and Melva Gunsen- houser fthe former Violet Keller and Melva Provinesb, who now own and operate the elite 450 Club, invited him to dinner one night. Hal said that while he was dining the orchestra leader announced the arrival of the beautiful Alice Lower, who had just won the title of Miss Universe of 1957. In the course of the conversation I told Hal about a trip I had taken the summer before. While I was in Chicago to transact some business, I stopped over for a couple of days. During my stay I procured a ticket for Ima June Moughler's radio show, One Woman's Family, sponsored by the Crudential Life Insurance Company. Coming out of the studio, I ran into Phyllis McKean and Hulda Norrick who are doing very well as radio script writers. They told me that Margaret Alwood is one of the more famous Hollywood dress designers. Then, since they observed that I looked rather faint and hungry, they recommended that I eat at The Baron House. It is owned and operated by Irene Baron and is one of the famous res- taurants in downtown Chicago. Irene employs Geraldine Casebere, the renowned dietician, whose diets are exemplified in the Baron cuisine. I might add that I have never eaten a more delicious meal-in a restaurant. Upon boarding the train for Colorado Springs I discovered that my com- partment was next to that of Lee Canpenter. Lee is an executive of the New York Central Railroad. He told me that he was going out west to attend a meeting for the purpose of attempting a merger of the New York Central and Santa Fe Railroads. He said that the night before he had at- tended a basketball game at the Chicago Stadium between the Chicago Ameri- can Gears and the world champion Zollner Pistons. He had been very pleased to see Elvin Lee Griffin starring as guard for the Pistons. Since I wanted to see the sights after I had arrived at Colorado Springs, I boarded one of Jake Keesler's sight-seeing busses. This bus went to Pike's Peak and gave me some very thrilling experiences. Then I proceeded on to Denver. Deciding that I needed some sweets, I stopped into a confectionary shop owned and operated by Mary Love. While I was walking down the street, enjoying the delicious candy I had just bought, and paying no attention to where I was going, I ran squarely into another old classmate of mine, Clarence Chum Harter. Chum told me he was traveling to New York to present to the United Nations Assembly his revolutionary idea for peace, Get Chummy the Harter Way. His idea is now used all over the world. He told me, also, that while he was in New York he was going to pay a visit to Kendall Wilson who was an executive in the Standard Oil Company. For diversion that evening I attended the premiere showing of Now and Forever starring Phyllis Hoover. Since it was the premiere showing of the picture, Phyllis was there in person. Also attending was Herbert Slentz, now famous as a lecturer on Farm Management. Reporting the show was Eileen Culler, the prominent society editor of the Denver Times. After Hal had departed, I sat looking into the fire and realized how much had passed in the short ten years and wondered what the future would bring to my old classmates off '47, -Jim Torrrbow. . -16-1 We Glcrdly Leolve . .

Study of the best musical scores, in both band and chorus, gives the pupils in those organizations an appreciation of the cultural aspects of music as well as skill in performing. Both the band and the chorus are under the able direction of Mr. Clare Ulm. The band became familiar to the people of this community, and to many persons from out of town, through its performances at each of our home basketball games. The peppy numbers, which it rendered on those occasions, helped the crowd to catch the spirit of the games. Not many people will -ggd Chorus forget the way the band played the school song at the beginning of the big games. During the year the band made several public appearances, notably at the Auburn Fair, the Hallowe'en Festival at Fremont, and in its annual Spring concert. The Chorus practiced diligently during the year, meeting faithfully twice each week, and learning many beautiful songs which it rendered in perfect harmony. The Chorus also appeared publicly on a number of occasions during the year-before the P-T-A, at the Hi-Y Christmas program. and in its an- nual Spring concert. In addition to directing the band and the chorus, Mr. Ulm directed a junior band and did a great deal of individual work with pupils to prepare new talent to replace the persons who will leave through graduation.

Latin Club Romani Hodierni C'Romans of Todayuj is the newest club to make its appearance in Butler High School. The Club was or- ganized in the Spring of 1946 by a group of students who were I . interested in promoting and pursuing their study of the Romans TW outside of the regular courses in school. Early in the school year, the charter members of the club held an initiation for the newer members by conducting them on a tour through The Underworld, where they encountered several of the ancient gods and goddesses. At Christmas time the members of the club held an interesting meeting and Christmas exchange at the home of Mr. McCrory in commemoration of the Saturnalia. the Roman holiday from which many of our modern Christmas customs have come. The first year's activities of the club was concluded with a typical Roman banquet. The officers of the club were Consul, Elinor Carpenterg Proconsul, Mary Korsmeyerg Scriba, Margaret Rohrerg and Quaestor, Philip Raney. Mr. McCrory was sponsor of the club.

During that time he has had direct charge of varsity basketball and track and has been as- sistant coach of baseball. In each of those sports his teams have made a creditable record. But of even more importance is the fact that his ideals of sportsmanship have been an inspiration to the boys who have played the game under his direction. Mr. Keith Beebe is coach of baseball and second team basketball. Each year he has fulfilled the important task of developing material for the varsity. Mr. James Cather, as coach of the Junior Hi basketball teams, discovers the valuable raw materials for the high school teams. The students of Butler High School sincerely ap- preciate the interest and friendship of these men. KEITH BEEBE CLETIS JENKINS JAMES CATHER -33- Manaaers and Cheer Leaders Much of the success of any athletic contest depends upon the managers -those fellows who keep the uniforms and equipment in shape, run er- rands for the coaches and officials, and help to make visiting teams at home. This year we were fortunate in having two very capable ones- Jim Knox and Richard Freidenberger. UD. J. was varsity basketball manager, and Friday looked after things for the baseball, track, and reserve basket ball teams. That well organized cheering section, which provided the pep for the basketball fans at home and abroad, was under the able direction of the cheer leaders elected by the students last Fall. Mary Jeanette Rohrer, Hal Sudborough, and George Smith were varsity cheer leaders. Joan Rickerd, Charlotte Johnson, and Helen Evanoff kept the cheers rolling for the second team. lamps Knox Upper-George Smith, Jeanette Rohrer, Richard Fxiedenberger Hal Sudborough Lowe:-Charlotte Johnson, Joan Rickerd, Helen Evanoff Varsity Basketball Shortly after the baseball season ended. the basketball hope- fuls began their drills, Elvin Griffin, Clarence Harter, Reynold Johnson, Wendell David, and Armand Sicard returned from last year's team to give the Windmills the nucleus for a new team. A large number of underclassmen also turned out for the team. Early season drills proved that the Windmills were handi- capped by lack of size, but they had lots of speed to make up for that. As Coach Jenkins worked with his squad of little boys, hopes rose, and a good season was anticipated. Although the Windmills were not the best in the history of the school, they showed plenty of fight and determination and gave their fans many thrills. Even when they went. down to defeat. they made their opponents earn every victory. The Windmills were especially successful in Conference play, and wound up the season in a tie with Wolcottville for the Corner Conference championship.

The Tankheaters, Butler's second team, from whom the Windmills of the future are built, gave the followers of Butler basketball much to look forward to. Under the direction of Coach Keith Beebe, the Tankheaters finished the season with a record of 16 games won and 5 lost, won undisputed championship of the Corner Conference, and captured the DeKalb County HB -Team Tourney. During the season, the Tankheatersewho possessed balance, size, and much savvy-gained valuable experi- ence which will serve them well in the future. -42- Baseball Play Ball! was heard across the diamond at the Athletic Field, when baseball practice started last Fall. An unusually large number of boys turned out for the baseball team this year, and the job of cutting the squad was extremely difficult. But, after careful consideration, the team was cut to fifteen boys. The return of several regulars from last year made the team appear to be extra Strong, but the Windmills were unable to get under way, mainly because of poor ard Freidenberger, Rich- fielding and weak pitching.

Although the team lacked the outstanding in- dividual performers of last season, it enjoyed a successful season which was climaxed by winning the Corner Conference championship. The season opened with a triangular meet at Garrett with Albion and the Railroaders. Butler finished second behind Garrett. That meet was followed with a victory over Waterloo in a dual meeting here. In another dual meet at Auburn, the Windmills captured second placeg and then de- feated Waterloo again on the local track. Branching out into stiffer competition, the strong medley relay team, composed of Allen Dirrim, Richard Flynn, Reynold Johnson, and Jack Michael, won second place at the Goshen Relays and took third place in the strong Kokomo Relays. g?'.if'f. use isnt ,,.k V, ..h,Lw,,,, 5, , ': f-,:r?Z':l -A , 'mmwi Top Row-Elvin Griffin takes a high hurdle.

This program was under the direction of Mr. Jenkins and Miss Allman. During the first semester, the Noon Basketball League played a schedule of games. The teams in this league were drawn by lots at the be- ginning of the season, and determined their champion on the percentage of games won. In the second semester, after the close of the regular season, the class tourney was held. It was won by the Seniors, who defeated the Juniors in the finals, 17-14. Another high-light of the intramural season was the annual basket- ball game between Hi-Y and F. F. A. This year Hi-Y barely nosed out the farmers by a score of 20-18. In school competition among the girls was limited to games played in the physical education classes. On the nice days in the Fall the girls played some vigorous soft ball, and during the Winter days they played volley ball in the gym. There was no organized competition among them this year. A similar program was carried out also in the boys physical edu- cation classes.

The School Boy Patrol .- JPN The picture above shows the Butler School Boy Patrol receiving two certificates of award. These two awards certify that for two years this organization has not had any accidents on the street crossings which they have patrolled. Mr. Sigler, a representative of the Chicago Motor Club, presented the awards to Mr. Harding, who in turn presented them to Cap- tain Charles Oberlin of the School Boy Patrol. The organization is composed of three patrols in charge of Captain Charles Oberlin, lst Lieutenant Charles Miller, and 2nd Lieutenant Bishop Hathaway. Mr. James N. Cather is its sponsor. During the year the Butler Rotary Club purchased raincoats for the boys. The Chicago Motor Club furnished belts, badges, and posters for them.

The importance of their work cannot be over emphasized. Advertising For Better Candies Try ROSE LAWN Candy Bars ROSE LAWN CANDY CO. Edgerton, Ohio MONDHANK COAL CO. Butler, Ind.
