Y' n Buckeye Gzrls State and Buckeye Boys State Each year the American Legion and Auxiliary of Garrett Reist Post No 503 send two outstanding Juniors to BUCKEYE BOYS STATE and BUCKEYE GIRLS STATE Last year Mary Lou Russell and Charles Wolfersberger had the honor to be chosen Let s let them speak for themselves When I arrived at Girls State, I was greeted by girls carrying posters, pamphlets, and petitions. We held elections for city, county and state offices At night there were im portant speakers for us to listen to I was a member of the city council, and the city health nurse. As a member of the city council, I helped draw up the charter for Catherwood City fGirls' State was divided into ten cities, two counties and one state. The re we re approxi- mately forty girls in each city.J We girls were thrilled to be invited to the governor's man- sion for tea and also to meet the governor at the state capitol. We also had an inaugural dinner the night that the state officers took the oath of office. I never thought that I would have as much fun as I had the week I was at BUCKEYE GIRLS' STATE. Upon my arrival at Boys' State I was greeted by many boys, who were campaigning, handing out name cards and other campaign literature. The rest of the day was spent cam- paigning for different offices of the Boys' State Government. The next two days were election days. Then we took offices on our fourth day there. I held the office of city council member and deputy auditor, also of the city. Boys' State was composed of eighteen cities, three counties, and one state, all governed as a real state is governed. We called ourselves the forty-ninth state. I can't express the enjoyment I had in my ten day stay at BUCKEYE BOYS' STATE. We wish to thank the American Legion and Auxiliary for sponsoring us to BUCKEYE GIRLS' STATE and BUCKEYE BOYS' STATE. Z5
