Senior Delegates Make YF T Meet This past summer Pius was rep- resented at the Second International Third Order Youth Congress by two senior boys, Pat Slattery 212 and Tom Van Doren 208. The four-day event was held at St Bonaventure university in Olean N Y It was noted bv the boys that ev ery Ranch Corrals uys and Gals If the wind happened to blow vou into the Fruit Ranch sometime dur ing the s u m m e r vou probably thought that the school location had changed because of the numbei of PlOIllt9S work1ng there More than likely the first sight to meet your eyes w as that of D Kubln 206 falling over an obscure watermelon left in the aisle by some thoughtles fellow such as P Tuiay 206 or R Jost 318 Saunterlng past the gailics you probably came upon thlee promising y o u n g peiformers P Breitbach '314 D Welke 202 and R Schmidt 204 doing a Juggling act with the muskmelons If vou were lucky enough to gain admission to the lHIl6l chambeis vou undoubtedly witnessed an avocado eating marathon between two closely matched contestants R Wambach 212 and C Clanclola 206 You would have needed X ray v1s1on to spot the red and white of the whole outfit whose name I am not at libeity to divulge because of the security risk involved' He was located behind the enormous stock piles of produce seienely dragging on a King Size L8zM Filter Having witnessed these sights you gladly paid either cashier V Beh rendt 116 or B Het7el 208 the five dollar cover charge and exited back into the outei world of routine James Stoffels race was represented at the conven- tion. Since the theme of the Congress was family unity, a family spirit prevailed throughout it. All the par- ticlpants Sisters piiests and stu dents were placed on an equal level in the group discussions Poth Pit and Tom agree that pai t1c1pat1ng in the Congress was a very inspirational experience and feel that they derived many worth while ideas from it Elalne Clemens ,loms Gtrls State When Girls State com ened at the Unneislty of Wisconsin 1n Madison during the week of June 21 to June 28 the attendance of 390 girls in eluded Flame Clemens of Pius The chief purpose for which this annual convention meets IS to teach the gills the usual foimalitles of iunnlng city countv 'ind state gov ernment The gills who attended the con ventlon took an actual part in law making in thelr own little govern ment Each girl was assigned to replesent a certain C1tW and given a party either Nationalists or Federal xsts Thev weie then divided into committees Bills were passed and laws weie debated by them Thev held nomi nation for officeis and campaigns aw I f if USAF ,er Loses Love for Texas On June 26 I was one of 10 un- suspecting lads who left the beer capital for Lackland Air Force Base, San Antonio, Texas. The purpose of this excursion was to take the stand- ard nine-week basic training course the Air Force gives to all recruits. However, we were Air National Guardsmen so that when we finished we could come home instead of hav mg a four year hitch to serve Manv people ask just what a basic goes through The best Way I can think to describe it is this Get up at 4 '30 for nine weeks dust the house morning and night get to school at '7 00 and stay till 4 00 Put in an hour of marching every day Help prepare the food in the kitchen for five days This is not known as KP but by the fifty cent name of student support Learn to gripe about the heat food mall and lib eltv vou get That roughly is basic training The rewa1d One small silver stripe But aftei Texas without heat cockroaches dust and rifles it would be '1 fine state vou think it s the most beautiful thing in the world Joe IeGath l uncik X ..-'i-fa , 5 ,g.' 1 'Jn :sw 1'v ' J --3 5 53 .t h-- iig- ss- I 'VI .'lLl'g1'Q J -if- f gels ls.. eg 1 1' 4 ii-PS.:5 WQ-gf fi'i??
