Speech team excels at districts Tension was great prior to the announcement that Neumann's Speech team had won the District Speech Contest, March 14 at Valley. When the points were totalled, it showed the win was by a mere point. Four of Neumann's twenty competitors qualified for participation in the state meet at Kearney, April 6. All of the four received excellents at state. The fall musical, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown by Charles Schulz was made up of an inexper- ienced cast. Three out of the six cast members made their debut during the November 19, 20, and 21 performances. The cast of six practiced every evening for at least two hours and often longer for a month and a half before the opening performance. During the school day, the members of the cast often practiced their songs with Mrs. Kathy Vondracek. UPPER LEFT: Connie Polacek practices her speech for the State Speech Meet for her coach.
