In the spring of their Iunior year, delegates to Girls' Citizenship In- stitute are elected, by their class- mates, on the basis of leadership and citizenship. The Institute, held on the campus of Douglas College, provides an opportunity for these girls to learn at first hand about the laws, services and agencies of the State. They are impressed with the responsibilities that accompany the privilege of citizenship. One of the features of the conference is the trip to Trenton to meet and talk with the Governor. Lest it be thought that this conference is en- tirely serious, one must add that plenty of time is given to fun and fellowship with the other delegates. GIRL 9 CITIzENsIIIP 9 INSTITUTE BOYS, ST TE Citizenship practiced by youth makes better adult citizenship practices. That is the purpose of the American Legionis Boys, State. Each year the local Ameri- can Legion Post sends elected repre- sentatives from our school to meet with students from all over New Jersey to learn the structure and purpose of muni- ciple and state government. At Boys, State, on the Rutgers' campus, the boys participate in mock-elections of a two party nature to further acquaint them with the making of party platforms and the tactics of campaigning, but the main objective of Boys, State is to introduce the delegates to the true importance of a democratic government. KNEELING: R. Glore, B. Austin. STANDING: S. Rinaldi, K. Adams, C. Truitt, M. Morgan, B. Weh.
