Orators . . . Five nervous students are sit- ting on the platform, each re- viewing the speech he must give in just a few minutes. Many hours spent in looking over material for just the right speech . . . many more hours spent in diligent practice going over and over the same thing . . . a little less emphasis here and a little more there . . . a pause here and a quick break there, Now all that is over and the fateful moment has arrived. Will l ever be able to rise from the seat. . . to walk across the platform . . . to turn and face that cold audience . . . if only the earth would open and swal- low me up. Somehow, l manage to rise . . , give my speech . . . return to my seat . . . Four others do likewise and then to await the decision of the judges. Such a scene is enacted twice yearly in Central's auditorium. ln the Fall the boys compete in the Lyons-Weeks contest. The winners in this contest was James Holleran and second prize was awarded to Jack Russell. ln the spring the girls re- enact the same procedure in the Disinger - Church contest. The participants this spring show every indication of con- tinuing the splendid record of Centralites in this contest, First row: Jack Russell, James Holleran, Basil Bohovesky, Second row: Milton Bernstein, Sanford Tan- enhaus, Page Thirty-One First row: Norene Thorsen, Suzanne Ball Barbara Truman.
