1928 JUNIOR HIGH BROADCASTER Awards fi . In the year ending June, 1927, the Junior High School instituted the Honor Cup. The purpose of this cup is to promote scholarship. The person attaining the highest scholastic average is to be the winner of the cup at the end of his ninth school year. The cup remains in the possession of the school, but the student is honored by having his name engraved on it. For the first year this cup was awarded to Maurice Mumper. Each year an essay contest is held under the auspices of the W. C. T. U. This year the contest was held April 25, 1928. All contestants had handed in their essays previous to this. The iirst award of 35.00 was awarded to Betty Stainton, the second prize of 33.00 presented to Elizabeth Reed. In conjunction with this contest an oratorical contest was held. These orations were not original-the judges being governed by the delivery of the speakers. The winner of this contest was given a silver medal, this being won by Winifred Jackson.
