BUCKEYE STATE Last year representatives for Buckeye State were elected by their classmates to attend conferences in which they set up model state, county, and local govern- ments. Chuck Held, Richie Heath, and Jack IVohler went to Camp Perry, which is near Sandusky, for Boys' Buckeye State, later Faye Newcomer and Barb Belik went to Capital University for Girls' Buckeye State. Their expenses were paid by the American Legion Aux- iliary, the American Legion, the Rotary Club, and the Lions Club. I'Vith the help of these organizations, our repre- sentatives were able to learn much more about our system of government. The group, as guests of the Rotary Club of Wadsworth, were accompa- nied to Cincinnati by Mr. Fred Faull, a member of Rotary. WORLD AFFAIRS INSTITUTE These four students QBob Miragliotta, Douglas Morrell, Nelson Chaffee, and Becky Lutzj , after being selected by some of the faculty, represented Wadsworth at the VVorld Affairs Institute held on March 28 and 29, 1958, in Cincinnati. -' 'Xia-N, -.

The boys have already passed out the song books with the songs that open the meeting, After the luncheon is served, the boys and members will hear a guest speaker. lVill the following boys please report to the office! This is the first recognition that Ro- tary student guests receive of their election. The sixteen chos- en boys are arranged in groups of two and assigned :t month in which to attend the Rotary meetings. It is indeed an honor to be chosen. The fact that the boys will gain much knowledge from the speakers and from their associations with the Ro- tary members makes the pro- gram worth While.

The trophy is given for two weeks to the Y. lf.

F. C. meetings every first, sec- ond, and third Monday evening of every month. The fourth Monday of every month the W. H. S. Youth For Christ members meet with other Ak- ron area Y. F. C. groups for roller skating at Springfield Roller Rink. A Y. F. C. rally is held in Akron every second and fourth Saturday. The very worthwhile purpose of this Y. F.
