Butte High Plans Service Memorial
Butte high school will unveil next month a bronze memorial honoring 373 alumni who served in the war. Principal E Millikin announced the project, funded by the class of 1918, with four graduates listed as supreme sacrifices Lieut Kremer Tuchy Ralph Steele Sergt John Driscoll and Private Winston Arnett. The list grew from extensive research across war records and relatives. The senior class play was canceled as commencement week duties clashed with rehearsal, though the Dramatic club will perform Green Stockings Saturday under Miss Gertrude Ryan to aid the memorial fund amid wartime restrictions. The junior prom remains set for Columbia Gardens.
