Outstanding in every area, they placed high in district competition and sent several speakers on to the state meet. Tournaments are characterized by hours of practice, early morning bus trips, lugging around card files and magazines, grabbing snacks, unscrambling unbelievable speaking sched- ules, card games, and finally bringing home the hard-earned trophies. Competition falls into five categories, impromptu, speaking freely at a moment's noticeg extemporanious, an hour to prepare on a given topicg oratory, a long memorized speechp interpretive, a dramatic reading: debate, and after-dinner speaking.
