Douglas Marquardt relates
Boys State experience
Doug Marquardt, son of Mr. and Mrs. Bill Marquardt,
Lexington, was among more than 400 Oregon high school
juniors selected last spring to attend Beaver Boys State, held
in Monmouth last June. Boys State was developed by the
American Legion as a mini-state, complete with city, county
and state governments, designed to give boys a taste of real
citizenship and politics in action.
Marquardt was sponsored by the American Legion post
and Auxiliary in Heppner and was Morrow County's only
representative.
Elected to the position of city Public Health Officer,
Marquardt campaigned with a slogan that he said went
something like this: "I live in a dry part of the country where
theres lots of dust and therefore I think I can be of help to the
city in these matters" He added "Believe me, I worked hard
at sweeping the dust off our 'city' walkways!"
A trombone player in the Heppner High School band,
Marquardt's ability won him first place at the mid-week
talent show, playing his musical saw. He also said his skill at
the piano was utilized to help put on a special memorial night
program.
Marquardt commented about the dverall Boys State
experience: "Was it worthwhile? You bet it was!. ..I learned
how necessary it is to voice one's opinions nobody else will
(or completely can.) I saw the need to be interested in
politics. I was made aware that politics is the biggest
business in the world. Just like fire, it needs to be tended. ..I
enjoyed learning a little about law by watching a mock trial.
I was made aware of the problems in different parts of our
state..."
A college-bound senior at Heppner High School this year,
Marquardt said he would enthusiastically recommend
Beaver Boys State to any interested junior.
The Heppner American Legion and Auxiliary selects one
boy a year to sponsor for Boys State on the basis of a letter
expressing reasons for wanting
