The varsity team failed to beat Burlington for their Homecomeing, but defeated Assumption at theirs a week later,J Volleybalt had hopes of competing through district play, but ran up against rival Bettendort one too many times. Cross country and distance running com- peted in the chill autumn at Scott County park and at Muscatine and Pleasant Valley. Wrestlers and basketball piayers began their seasons by competing against tea- mates for spots on the teams and then went on to face the conference competitiors. Recovering a fumble at the Homecoming game is the priority of the varsity Lancers. Supporting the competition ot the football team for Homecoming is the sophomore class. s a n xt lest. is X -JSA.

That is what they try to do under the guidance of Mrs. Judith Jacobs, head of the speech department, and Mrs. Michelle Lansdowne-Flager, our new speech activities assistant in charge of speech contest work. North Scott belongs to both the Iowa High School Speech Association and the Iowa High School Forensic League and so the list of contest work is long and takes a full year's activity. On October 18 NS sponsored it's own Lancer Invita- tional Speech Tournament CLISTJ and won back the traveling trophy from Durant High School. Winners in- cluded a first place for Tammy Kreiter and Steve Sissel in Duet Acting, Michelle Boyle and Liz Meier in Mime, and the Reader's Theatre group. A group traveled to Muscatine on October 25 to the McKee Invitational where Sarah Mortenson returned with a second place in Prose and Poetry, and Rod Moon earned a fourth in Humorous Interpretation. A Colloquy on November 1st at the University of Iowa hosted Lancers with Sue Meyer a getting into the finals in Prose and Poetry. West High School hosted the annual West Invitational Tournament on November 15 and Rod Moon earned a second in Humorous Acting. WHAC stands for West High and Clinton High and they held their annual speech contest in Clinton this year on December 13. The Lancers who went didn't fair very well right before the holidays. IHSSA activity started in January with the District Large Groups in Muscatine. NS took a Reader's The- atre Group, Choral Readers, three duets and two mimes. A great many hopes were that they would ad- vance to State in Cedar Rapids on February 7. The IHSSA Individuals began in Durant at districts on Feburary 28 and ended on March 21 at State in Ot- tumwa. The All-State Individuals gathered in Cedar Falls on April 6. March 5 and 6 were the All State for IFL at the University of Iowa in Iowa City. Much work and fun went into making the 1980-81 speech activities year a very busy one made to make people laugh, sad, fearful, thoughtful, and even mad. expressive faces on these pages are capable of !w , . , , SPEECH CONTESTS
