Tlx Cdpllollon Carolyn Rogers, Judith Lawson, Mary Elliott Public Discussion Judith Lawson, with three years of debating experience behind her, ably represented F. H. S. in the Public Discussion contest this year. Her clear, forceful speech, delivered with the poise and ease which only experience can give, won for her second place in the district contest. Declamation Mary Elliott has won the Declamation contest for two successive years, and has ably rep- resented Frankfort both times. This year she placed second in the district tournament, and it may be noted that the boy who defeated her also won the State contest. Mary has proved that she has unusual dramatic ability and we sincerely trust that she will develop this talent even further. Story Telling A new speaking contest was instituted this year, and we are certainly proud of the show- ing Frankfort made. Carolyn Rogers, a sophomore, carried off highest honors in the dis- trict Story-Telling contest, and placed third in the State. VVe certainly are proud of you, Carolyn, and we know that with two more years before you, you'l1 learn to tell some real stories. Extemporaneous Speaking This is the first year Frankfort has had an entrant in the Exteniporaneous Speaking con- test, and we certainly are proud of Helen Estes, who had the courage to try it. It is ex- ceedingly difficult to speak extemporaneously, unless one has had quite a bit of experience, and we feel that Helen, even though she did not place, made a fine showing for the school.
