Boys Nation Movement Under Way
A movement for a Boys Nation and permanent headquarters near Syracuse was proposed at Manlius School by Frank Batug. It would create two senators and several representatives from each Boys State and meet yearly at a national capital, with a Boys State in all 48 states. Governor Batug urged legislative resolutions to pursue the plan and asked the State Department of the American Legion to investigate.
