Boys' State Governs The first week of June is traditionally the time of Boys' State, an experience in government sponsored by the American Legion. Representatives from Kansas high schools travel to K.U. where they organize and control an actual communi- ty. Population of the mock state is divided equally into Nationalist and Federalist parties. Each party enters a member on the ticket to compete for varying levels of office. Once established, this year's Boys' State government debated and passed legislation concerning education, welfare, tax reform, and crime. After experiencing the complexity of effective government new objectivity was used in analyzing the faults of the system. Boys' State delegates learned to utilize their citizenship in channels of reform. T It i i i 1 i i l l -i 'I T Qffff.-QW, ' , t - if iff Bud Titus talks about Boys' State. i 1

Time and Energy Symbolize Cheerleaders' Devotion Ruled by strict regulations and long hours of prac- tice, the varsity, junior varsity, and sophomore cheerleading squads geared their efforts toward uniting masses of unorganized sports fans in supportive ac- tivities. Under the regimentation of Mrs. Carolyn Howard, they drilled two or three times a week on chants, yells, for- mations, and dances, which culminated with their strenuous performances at all games. Known as a close group, the cheerleaders worked together to raise the morale of both the teams and the spectators. l Paula Gatzoulis exudes spirit while cheering As Suzy Hooten leads a cheer, she accidentally jumps on a live wire.
