Bridget Burcham. Every year the Speech and Drama Club par- ticipates in several regional and state competi- tions. Although small in comparison to neighboring schools, Conner's Drama Depart- ment has made an ample name for itself. This year the Drama club did a cutting from The Class Menagerie for the Regional One-Act Play Festival, held at Northern Kentucky Univer- sity. The play was well received, especially by several student audiences who reviewed it before the contest date. Angie Poynter, a senior, received first place and was awarded a scholarship at NKU. Another highlight of the Speech and Drama Club year was the annual Speech and Drama Tournament. This event consists of several categories in which individual performances are judged and given a rating ranging from Superior to Fair. The contestant performs in two rounds. If a Superior is award- ed in both, that student moves up to a higher phase of competition.

LANGUAGE CLUE The Language Club, whose purpose is to promote interest in foreign languages, is made up of about fifty members. Throughout the year the group held such activities as the Christmas and Halloween parties. They also had a Taster's Dinner where each of the students in the different language courses prepared a dish from various countries. The club visited the cas- tle in Loveland; individual classes also took additional trips. To raise money for the organization this year, the language classes sold stationary and held bake sales.
