ABOVE, left to right: Stuart Collins, Jr., Science; Donald Barnett, American Legion; Pat Walker, Journalism. BELOW, from top to bottom: Fred Dart, Boys' State; Diane Elliott, Girls' State; Marilyn Pa- quette, D.A.R. Special Awards Empire Boys' State is sponsored by the American Legion. Every year the Junior Class elects a boy to represent the school. Attended by junior boys from all over the state, it is or- ganized to acquaint them with and educate them to the functions of a democratic govern- ment. Last year the boy selected on the basis of scholarship, personality, leadership, and extra curricuiar activities was Fred Dart. Empire Girls' State sponsored by the Ameri- can Legion Auxiliary has been in operation- for seven years but last year was the first year that Potsdam was invited to participate. Simi- lar to Boys' State this is to acquaint the girls of the state with the running of a democratic government. The representative chosen by the junior class was Diane Elliott, selected on the basis of scholarship, personality and leader- ship. The New York State Organization of Daugh- ters of the American Revolution sponsors a Good Citizenship Pilgrimage Essay Contest for high school girls throughout the state. The title of the essay this year was Why Does the History of Our Republic Give Us Faith in the American Future? Marilyn Paquette was chosen from the three candidates voted by the Senior Class. Last April at the annual Science Congress held at the Campus School in Potsdam, stu- dents from northern New York competed for the prizes, the top two being scholarships to St. Lawrence University and Clarkson College. Stuart A. Collins Jr. won the scholarship of- ered by St. Lawrence University. This year the Herald Recorder, a local news- paper, gave the Potsdam High School an op- portunity to have its own news column. The writings of three English students were sub- mitted to the Herald Recorder which chose Pat Walker to write the column. An cJratorical contest sponsored by the American Legion for the purpose of creating interest in and respect for the basic principles of our government was won by Donald Bar- nett.
