Youth County On May Sth and 9th, with representatives from other area high schools, fifty-four Southside High School juniors attended YOUTH COUNTY which is sponsored each year by the American Legion. Delegates were assigned a political party and place of resi- dence upon registration. Two days of nomi- nating conventions and political rallies were climaxed by final elections. The following month Southside was honored to send six delegates to BOYS' STATE and one delegate to GIRLS' STATE where the same election processes were carried out at the state level. These conferences fulfilled their purpose be- cause each delegate left with a deeper under- standing of his countryis democratic system of government and his part in it. 18 v C. Close. Third Row.' R.

Edsonian for 1959 Between the covers of this book is portrayed a way of life-the life of the American student. How many strangers will judge Southside High School by our pictured activities and carefully written words? It is impossible for any of us to say where the influence of our EDSON- IAN will stop. The staff of the 1959 ED- SONIAN hopes that this, our classis year- book. will retain for each and every student our wonderful treasury of mem- ories for the joyous years to come.
