In Tribute As we attend our classes at Woodstock High School, we are prone to forget that many other people have attended our school in the years past. In the fifty years since our first graduation some of our Alumni have left us. In tribute to their memory the Alumni Association inscribes this page.

Dirigo Girls 9 State Dirigo Girls' State is just what the name implies, a state in itself composed of two counties and eight towns. Delegates are sent from the junior class of high schools all over the state of Maine. Here we are taught, through participation, the way our town, county, and state governments function. We hold mock town meetings, party rallies. party caucuses, and county and state elections. Along with the work, there comes fun - two hours of sports and recreation each afternoon, and fun-time each night in which the different towns partic- ipate. The day before returning home, we travel to Augusta. Here we assemble ill the House chamber and our governor elect is sworn in by Governor Reed. After this, we go to the Blaine House to have tea with Mrs. Reed. The highlight of the week comes that evening. We are presented with our diplomas and Girls' State pins. The awards are given out. Each one is then presented a lighted candle, and we all sing Now is the Hour. Linda Waterhouse Editor in Chief Dirigo Boys ' State Dirigo Boys' State is held on the campus of the University of Maine for five days during the month of June. Dirigo Boys' State is divided into four counties. These counties are named after the first four Chief Justices of the Supreme Judicial Court of Maine. Each county has two towns. These eight towns are named after the first eight Gov- ernors of Maine. While at Boys' State each citizen has the right to run for election to any town, county, or state office. To do so, he must fill out all necessary nomi- nation papers as if he actually were running for election. The big moment at Dirigo Boys' State is the inauguration of the Boys' State Governor by the Governor of the State of Maine. On the last day at an assembly in the Memorial Gym, each boy is given his graduation certificate, and Boys' State pin and the outstanding town is given a special award. Before the boys leave for home the Dirigo Boys' State Band gives its final concert. Stephen Howe Business Manager
