Purple and Gold 27 Butler County High School League In 1912, by the effort of Prof. W. J. Poundstone and others, a league of Butler County High Schools was formed. This organiza-tion, called the Butler County High School League, has the following members: Douglass, ElDorado, Rose Hill, Augusta, Latham, Leon, and Whitewater. The purpose of the league is to promote the athletic and literary ability of the schools included. This league has been of inestimable value for the interest it has stirred up in athletics and literary work all over the County. The Annual Meet consists in a track meet in the afternoon and in the evening contests in declamation, oratory, and debate.
