This, one of the most important musical organ- izations in B. H. S., is the ultimate goal of every instrumentalist of the school, whether he puffs on a tuba or trills on a flute. Any student interested may join the Junior band which had fifty-five members this year. After much time and hard work in this organization, the student ' s ambition is at least realized — he has finally become a mem- ber of the Butler High School Band. This year the band, consisting of fifty-two members, was kept busy with many activities. After the school term began, the members strived for perfect marching drills. On October 31 they placed second in the state marching contest at Columbia City. Then came detailed practice and the tearing down of difficult parts into comprehensible notes. The band played at the Auburn Fair and later at home ball games. On April 2 they participated in the District Contest at Waterloo. To demonstrate the re- sults of hard work during the year, the organization played in the annual Spring Music Festival on April 3. The Butler High School Band has fun, seriousness, and work which no one would want to miss. —20—

Ck o ud At the beginning of each year, the call goes forth for recruits for this organization. All students even slightly interested in music enjoy singing in a group like this, so you may be sure that the Glee Club, which met only on Tuesdays and Thursdays, received a great deal of music ap- preciat ' on from their numerous vocal selections. Early in school life the students ' voices are trained. Even the first- grade practices diligently. Sometimes small groups are selected from the grades to sing in the local churches, at our class plays, and at P. T. A. meetings. This year the high school Glee Club held a recital at the Methodist Church in October. After several months of hard work, the group presented the operetta The Prince of Peddlers on May 6. Like the band, the Glee Club climaxed its season with the local Spring Music Festival. First row, left to right: Marilyn Ginder, Sharon Beebe.
