04fA r tf-eAe iaiiQ i The school year of 1949-1950 turned out to be a successful one for the Boys 1 Federation under the supervision of Mr. Ledbetter, Dean of Boys. In cooperation with the Girls 5 Federation, the Boys Federation helped present the first frolic of the year to welcome the incoming Freshmen and new transfers to Wa-JHi and later provided a tour of the school for the eighth graders in the spring. An assembly was held for the boys each month. There were many types of entertainment, including Whitman’s String Swing and Senior Octet, a basketball game between the faculty and the homeroom all-stars, and a ventriloquism act. The Federation also sponsored a public performance of Schcntell’s magic show held in the Wa-Hi auditorium. During the year, the boys offered their assistance by showing transfers and visitors around the school and grounds. A perpetual display of hobby crafts in the trophy case was the result of a survey taken in the home rooms to find out the boys’ hobbies and talents. These interesting displays were supplement¬ ed by articles in the Journal. The carrying out of a successful intramural program is one of the major duties of the year of the Boys’ Federation. This year’s intramural manager, who is appointed by the Federation presi¬ dent, was Eddie Aliverti. His duties included planning schedules, posting results, taking care of equipment, and figuring out the winner in each sport. A trophy is presented by the Boys 3 Federa¬ tion to the homeroom having the largest number of points at the end of the year.
