BUTLER — As the musicians lined up to give their debut performance of the 2013 contest show Friday, Eastside Marching Blazer Pride director James Graham said little about last year, other than it was “last year.”
In November, the Blazers made their fi rst-ever appearance at the Indiana State School Music Association state fi nals, placing 10th in Class D for the smallest schools.
Eight seniors graduated from that group, and this year’s band wants to make its own mark.
They’ll do it with “Scenes from Simple Gifts,” by Key Poulan, Graham explained.
Preparation for this year’s show began shortly after the ISSMA state fi nals.
“We want to get back to that level of competition, so there’s been a lot of late nights just thinking about what we can put together that will make people think, ‘Wow, that’s a cool show.’” Graham said.
“We’ve always designed our shows to have some sort of — I call it obnoxious — element that’s not expected, and I want the audience to look at us and think, ‘I can’t believe they’re
going to do this, this is pretty cool,’” he added. “Sometimes, the best ideas come right at the end and we just throw them in.”

BUTLER — A Garrett man and an Edgerton, Ohio, man were taken to hospitals following a two-vehicle crash south of Butler just before 6 a.m. Thursday, Butler Police said.
Jason Andrew Kaufman, 21, of the 700 block of South Cowen Street, Garrett, was taken to Parkview Regional Medical Center, Fort Wayne, for treatment of a blunt-force trauma injury, according to a police report.

A witness told police he heard brakes squealing and saw the Kaufman vehicle cross in front of the Dietsch vehicle.

BUTLER — A ceiling above the dog kennel at the DeKalb County Animal Shelter has burst open, forcing the agency to scramble for help to repair the damage.
Shelter manager Anna Feller said a slow leak in the roof of the building at 5221 U.S. 6, west of Butler, saturated the ceiling above a kennel that houses more than 30 dogs, and it burst this week. Feller said a section of the ceiling is in danger of falling in on the kennel.
A contractor visited the shelter Thursday at no cost and cut away the compromised ceiling, Feller
said. The contractor applied plastic around the hole as a stop-gap measure before he can make complete repairs, she said.
A roofer is scheduled to come to the building to address the leak, Feller said.
“It could be bad,” Feller said. “The contractor said that the next big rain, the ceiling might have very well come down on our dogs. The dogs are safe and the staff is safe for right now, but we’ve just got to get it fi xed.”
Feller said the ceiling had only a slight crack before it opened this week. She said the

This was always the week I dreaded growing up; the fi rst time the school lunch menu ran in the newspaper.
That meant summer was over, and a new school year was about to begin.
While they only go to school Friday, this is that week for students at Butler and Riverdale elementary schools and Eastside High School.
Don’t get me wrong about dreading the fi rst menu. For the most part, I enjoyed school; not the homework or a handful of teachers mind you, but I did have a good time and learned while I attended Butler Elementary School and Eastside Junior-Senior High School.
With the conclusion of the 2012-2013 school year, every home-room teacher I had from kindergarten through high school has now retired, or in some cases, has passed on.
That’s sad. I liked most of my teachers, and felt I grew and learned something from each of them.
Being a city kid, I missed out on riding the bus, except for the occasional fi eld trip.
In my case, I lived a block from the old elemen-tary school (now Eastside’s soccer fi eld) and the high school. You had to have a good excuse to skip school. If any of my former teachers
or principals are reading this column, I never skipped school.
Actually, I had perfect attendance my junior year, the only time I achieved that in my scholastic career. Growing up, I spent quite a bit of time at Dr. Shultz’s offi ce with one malady or another, and consequently, missed my share of school.
I did enjoy show-and-tell. I can remember taking a plastic Detroit Tigers batting helmet to school — after my fi rst-ever trip to Tiger Stadium. I can remember drawing pictures of the Fort Wayne Komets’ center-ice logo about a trip to a hockey game.
In kindergarten, I can remember getting up one time to get a drink of water — without asking permis-sion — and being asked to take my seat.
I was never paddled in school — you could still do that into the mid-1970s. My second-grade teacher had two paddles hanging from the blackboard. One paddle
was a solid piece of wood, the other had several holes drilled into it. I can only remember one kid getting the paddle with holes.
School lunches were interesting memories.
I was envious of classmates Maribeth Casebere and Bryan Lane because they had Emergency lunch boxes from the popular TV show, which was my favorite show as a kid. Mike Prosser and I had Sigmund & the Sea Monsters lunch boxes from the Sid & Marty Krofft Saturday morning show.
I fi nally got an Emergency lunch box by fi fth- or sixth-grade, and later tracked down one like Bryan and Maribeth had. I still have it to this day.
In my later elementary years, I can remember there being a traffi c light in the cafeteria. If the noise levels were OK, the light stayed green. If it started to get a little too loud, one of the attendants turned the switch to yellow.
If the light ever reached red — doomsday. Everyone in the cafeteria had to stay inside for recess, with their heads in their arms on the tables.
One year — it seems like it was in fourth-grade — whenever we had hamburgers, they came in these plastic packages.
When you tore open the package to remove the cooked hamburger, grease oozed out of the bun onto the cellophane. Needless to say, they weren’t very appealing. Fortunately, that was the only year I remember having to eat those grease bombs.
I enjoy raw spinach on sandwiches or in salads now, but as long as I live, I will never forget the smelly, steaming piles of cooked spinach we got in elemen-tary school. This was in the days when you didn’t pick what was on your tray. I’d hate to think how much spinach went to waste in those days.
In high school, it wasn’t unusual to have peanut butter sandwiches the same day we would have macaroni and cheese. This was always a double-milk day so you could wash down both.
I think I’m ready for lunch now.

“While we all have that gift (liberty), there is confl ict and struggle for that liberty,” Graham explained. “We have the gift of happiness if we choose to or not.
“With each movement, we try to recreate the mood of that gift. At the end, the push is to try to unify these gifts into one gift, which is the human experience.
“We selected the show based on the music fi rst, and then we went back to decide what kind of story we could tell with this music,” he said.
“I think it’s a very
emotional show, and I think audiences are going to connect to it in a very positive and happy way,” senior drum major Jacob Yoder said. “It sends a very positive message.
“It’s been very hard work, but it’s going to be worth it in the end. It’s very rewarding. It’s been a very enjoyable week, and it’s been a joy to work with all these kids.”
“Overall, it’s a great show,” senior squad leader Warren Kallsen said. “We’re the kind of band that shocks people. (Audiences) never expect what’s going to happen from Eastside, and I think we’re just going to surprise them again.”
“I think everybody will be pleased with the show, and it will help us grow as players because there’s a lot of technical stuff,” senior squad leader Lauren Jackson said. “I just enjoy hanging out with everybody and getting to play.”
“This show has really been a 180 from the kind of stuff we’ve done in the past,” senior squad leader Doug Lortie added. “This is our fi rst kind of ‘happy’
show since our last rock show.
“At fi rst, I didn’t like the idea of doing a happy show because we were kind of used to doing the dark and dreary.
“The more we do the show, I’m slowly falling in love with it,” Lortie said. “The theme is something most people have heard, but it’s really a fun show playing-wise. There are really intricate parts being played, and the dynamics will start showing themselves.
“The potential with this group is astounding,” he added. “I believe this show could be our strongest and most successful show ever, including last year when we made our fi rst appearance at state.”
“We’re a little bit bigger (43 performers) than last year, but we lost a lot of great seniors from last year,” Graham said. “Being the same size or a little bigger than last year, I’m happy with that.
“We have a very small senior class (four), and it’s a very young band this year, but the upperclassmen want to be known as a band that’s getting better and better.”

Feller said the shelter does not have the money to pay for major building repairs. It will lean on donations and volunteer help to mend the issue, she said.
“If you don’t have it, you can’t spend it,” Feller said.
“We do what we can. There’s no extra money at the shelter. We run on a lot of donations and contri-butions. It’s hard to say what’s in the budget. We have to fi x what we have to
fi x, but it’s just hard. It’s hard to come up with the money.”
To donate to the shelter, visit the shelter’s website at dekalbhumanesociety.org or send checks to DeKalb Humane Society, 5221 U.S. 6, Butler, IN 46721.
