Each class works hard through their four years at Butler High School to finance their Senior Trip. To reach this goal, each class is spon- sored by two faculty members that have the responsibility of putting the wheels of the class in motion. As the class progresses, they are given more and better projects. The first task the class undertakes is the Freshman ice- cream social. The Sophomores learn to man- age the coat check at ballgames. The con- cessions, magazine sales, and the Junior Play boost the Junior's treasury. Seniors use knowl edge gained from previous years to make a success of their paper drive, chilli suppers, and the Senior Play. All of the classes and activities profit from the annual Halloween Festival. Along with making money, students learn business methods and gain poise and self- confidence from their experiences. Through their teamwork as a class, they serve the school and the community. Man alive! ! Freshmen may be small, but they can really make a success of the spring ice- cream social, their first class project. Fresh- men: Dwanna Miller, Marlene Kessler, Jerry Wilson, and Bobby Miller take time out for some of that delicious homemade ice-cream. Good Morning, the Juniors are having their annual magazine sale. This is a list of the top magazines we're selling. Julie Smith and Ron Ault are testing their sales techniques on Bob Nelson. Julie sold the most magazines in the class campaign, and Ron was the runner-up. Another Saturday, another paper drive. Sen- iors: Kay Bacon, Jim Husted, and Dennis Strock find that paper drives can be more fun than work. These drives are held approx- imately once a month, and the class works as a team from 8:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. to eam money for their senior trip.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Students at BHS have parties, dances, picnics, carnivals, initations, and informal get -togethers to round out their academic program. 1958 began with the usual round of pizza and slumber parties. Parents vanished, kids described their latest dates with lan- guage like flush-em, sharp, and banana, and record players gave out the sounds of the newest rock'n'rol1 hits. Butlerites began to compare the newest fashions - Ivy league was the thing ! ! Sharp gals and fellas sported bright crew necks with plaid skirts or pants with the buckle in the back. November 15th - the Homecoming Game - arrived, and eleven pretty girls and their escorts paraded before a ca- pacity crowd at the Butler vs Waterloo basketball game. Rosalie Farmer was crowned Homecoming Queen, and Diana Weicht and Gloria Lung were her attendants. Spring again and off to the picnic! Early in the morning, 360 students jammed into school buses and started for Poka- gon State Park. After eating, hiking, playing baseball, foot- ball, volleyball, and perhaps, swimming, a tired group of students returned to Butler. Gary Culler, Hi-Y President, is leading But1er's first Homecoming Queen, Rosalie Farmer to her throne. ABOVE.: Julie Smith and Bob Rob- inette display their crew necks.
