Boys' lzederotion ALAN ADAMS President The Boys' Federation has built up a reputation equal to that of the Chamber of Commerce by sponsoring many activities essential to our school social life. This past year many dances, special assemblies and other activi- ties were held for the benefit of the student body. Alan Adams headed the programs and projects which included the following: the Gobblefest, the Calico Ball, the Boys' Federation Christmas formal and many special programs for the boys. The school always gets a bit of the Boys' Federation sponsored activi- ties at the beginning of the year. First it's the Calico Ball, where everyone dresses up in their informal best. This is followed up by the Gobblefest, which highlights the year as far as class competition goes. Again for the second year in a row, a queen was crowned to reign over the Gobblefest, This year Diane Barnes was queen, attended by Dolores Braden and Tammy Ogden. Also another worthwhile activity is the giving of awards at the awards assemblies. This is sponsored by the Boys' Federation and we were treated to two of them during the past year. When you sat at the football or basketball games, munching on popcorn or candy, it was partly through the efforts of the Boys' Federation. They sold refreshments many times during our athletic events. During the year the boys saw two assemblies, one featuring a Coast Guard film and speaker, and another with a speaker from the draft board. Officers for the club this year were: Alan Adams, president: Stanton Tate, vice-presidentg Aubrey Stephens, secretaryg and Alan Hochstrasser, treasurer. The club's advisor was Mr. Wood. 1951 BOYS' FEDERATION STANTON TATE Vice-President AUBREY STEPHENS Secretary ALAN HOCHSTASSER Treasurer . . -i , Q vi , ,M ...L-5. ivan- 5 29
