Eileen Flanagan Pat Birmingham Girls and Boys' State GIRLS' STATE I, Eileen Flanagan, attended the 1970 session of Girls’ State with four other girls from Allegany County. It was held the last week in June at Albany State College. We arrived on Sunday afternoon and left for home Satur- day morning by bus. Girls’ State attempts to develop understanding of govern- mental operations on local, state, and federal levels. We also learned a lot more about government by electing party offi- cials and working to get them in office. BOYS’ STATE On June 22,1, Patrick Birmingham, boarded a bus in Wellsville with other boys from the county who were attend- ding Boys’ State in Morrisville. 1 was chosen by the Robert James Post of Whitesville. Some of the activities at Boys’ State were Basketball, Tennis, and Track. We never had a dull moment. Sports were not the only thing at Boy’s State. You spent most of your time in your own party electing officers for government offices. After you had elected your officers you had a big party rally. The voting machines were donated by Morrisville who had recently bought new machines. Boys’ State is a good experience for young people be- cause they learn how the government is run and how to get along with other people. 24 Our Thanks To RICE MUSIC HOUSE
