've got the tournament blues To think that everyone is at these tournaments not only for the competition but to interpret the artistic value of a piece - it's wonderful! summed up speech student Cari Carty. lt can be an ex- tremely humbling experience when you think you did well but the judge doesn't agree. Speech Director Mrs. Marshann Carlile, aided at times by Mr. Keith Hammons, Ms. Kay Weiman, and Miss Rhonda Saldivar, ac- companied the speech students on a total of eight tournaments. Through Debate l have learned to pound ideas and facts into situations that allow one to balance two sides of a story and come out with the best results, philosophized Bruce Carney. The most memorable tournament was when we won the second place trophy at Dallas, remembered Marty Kunz. We were the on- ly Houston school there and we took the tournament by storm. We showed those schools who Jersey Village is! The most memorable tournament was Ballaire, disagreed Bruce Carney. l was debating an ex-firlfriend when l bent down to pick up a pencil and my pants ripped. Rather embarrassing, you know. P Marty Kunz and Julie Bridges grab a quick bite to eat at the traditional pre- tournament lunch stop.

The play won in Zone and District Competitions, thereby advancing to Area Competi- tion. The cast and crew were disqualified in the Area competition because their performance went into overtime - by one second.
