Speech Club, for instance, has been proven to be great fun; but more than that, it was a great learning experience for students. The twelve members of this year ' s club learned much during the course of the year. They practiced hard on basic principles. Some of the basic skills they practiced, ac- cording to Mr. D ' Amb ruoso, were characteris- tics of good delivery plus organization of ideas with heed to proper English usage. All of their practice was put forth so they could compete in the annual Lions Club Speech Contest. There, they competed against stu- dents from other schools. Their speeches were themed, Education, whose responsibil- ity is it? This included the students ' thoughts and or solutions to the problem. Mr. D ' Ambruoso, again, trained young peo- ple who now know the basic principles of public speaking. This skill, a great advantage to the students, can be used for the rest of their lives, regardless of what their future ca- reers may be. j I Ken Lane shows emphasis while saying.

Sharpen Speech, Creative Writing Skills Many new clubs have been formulated to offer new experiences to interested students. One of the clubs which fit this description was Reflections. Some students may have wondered what Reflections actually was. Reflections ' main purpose was, according to Mrs. Holden, the advisor, to provide rSorthview students with an opportunity to have literary and artistic works recognized. Such works were collaborated into Reflec- tions magazine. Included in the magazine were pictures, poems and stories which were submitted by students. Reflections has re- leased two magazines, each an improvement on the last. This pace can ' t help but continue for further Reflections success. This success resulted in more positive responses from the faculty and student body. President Beverly Sanders, ponders some possible entries for Reflections magazine At a Reflections meeting.
