This year seemed to be a year of "firsts" for the Hi-Y. For the first time in the history of the Alexandria Hi-Y, they have been host to a district conference, held March 13. Twenty-two high schools from ten counties were represented. Four different schools led discussion groups about race, religion, the nation, and boy and girl relationships. Rev. Paul Boyer from the Christian Church, led the boys in a song fest. An evening banquet was served with Rev. Edgar Williams of the Church of God as speaker. A mixer dance was held at the Kanteen in which Y-Teen members participated. The first constitution of the local Hi-Y was drawn up this year. Pro- visions for initiation were included. April Fool's day was celebrated by holding a square dance. Mr. J. B. Duff, state Hi-Y secretary and an authority on square dancing, was the caller. Hi-Y also sponsored a yo-yo contest last fall as well as a "Guess the winner of the Sectional" contest in February.
