l l Matador Forensics bring together speakers from over 60 colleges The Matador Forensics Festival over the years has become a major event for college and university speakers in the southwest. This year's tournament more than met its reputation. Over 600 students from 32 college representing seven states competed for the glory, fun, and trophies on campus. Debate, oratory, impromptu, oral inter- pretation, expository and radio speaking were featured in the fourth annual Festival. Some of the events were broadcast live from Cottage One on KAWC radio. Adding color to the fast-paced competition were the Yuma High School Choralairs and stage band, a tour of San Luis, Mexico, after registration Thursday night, a banquet highlighted by a performance from comedian Allen Sherman Friday night, and a bar- be-cue awards banquet Saturday night that finished off a very active and exciting weekend. 145
