ORATORICAL CLl B The Oratorical Club was formed with the aim of giving each student interested in pub¬ lic speaking a chance to practise before others. The club ' s first project was the sending a delegate to the district finals of the Manitoba School Trustee ' s Association public speak¬ ing contest. Our delegate was Bruce Jackson who placed second. The club inaugurated a type of radio at Miles Mac. The programming was to give a fair sprinkling of music, schc 1 club and sports news, as well as occasional special features. On the whole we felt that M. M. C. R. was quite successful. CJOB gave the club a tour of their radio station. The club held debates and the members not only debated, but also chaired the debates and did the judging. Mrs. Vensel and Mrs. Lee were the teacher judges. The club also taped the play, Pete Goes Home, for the Grade X Literature classes. It was our responsibility tc provide announcers and technicians for the ' stage shows ' of Kaleidoscope and this we did successfully. Later in the year a public speaking course was given to the club by Hugh Stephens who had taken the course at a conference in Brandon. We owe a tremendous vote of thanks to our teacher sponsor, Mrs. Lee, for her guidance and training. FIRST ROW: Linda Walker, Sco:.t Stewart, Vice- President; Wayne Eliuk, President; Elizabeth Johnston, Secretary-Treas¬ urer; Carol Kornek. SECOND ROW: Don Hunter, Hugh Stephens, Michael Dunbar, Fran Negrych, Bruce Jackson.
