H LA CUESTA 1930V M My Arizona Junior Arts Leaque Although no large number of students of the class of 1930 has evinced special interest in the speech arts, some creditable, some even brilliant speeches were presented in the local elimination contests of the Arizona Junior Arts League. The contest includes extemporaneous speaking, dra- matic reading, and the annual peace oration. Bruce McFate won the coveted opportunity to represent A. S. T. C. at Phoenix, April 20, in the peace oratorical contestg Nicholas Paynovich in the extemporaneous, and Kenneth Hurlbert in the dramatic speech contest. The league in this way fosters the introduction and practice of the arts of speech in the colleges of Arizona. Lowell Memorial Scholarship Prize This prize is given every year in honor of the late Dr. Percival Lowell, whose valuable accomplishments in the scientific world are universally known. It was awarded to Miss Alice Ferrell, Bisbee, her scholarship being the highest for the current year. Presentation of the prize was made by Dr. C. A. Lampland of the Lowell Observatory staff.

LA CUESTA 1930 November 27 We didn't have to be made to go to assembly today 'cause the Ladies' Chorus gave an interesting program. November 28 to December 2 This time was spent in eating turkey, cranberry sauce, and being thankful we weren't flunking--so far. December 4 Town-jacks' banquet biggest success ever, even if Dean Tinsley did have the floor most of the time. December 6 Next quarter I'm certainly not going to let things slide. No more cramming for me. December 7 Mortonites threw a big pow-wow-sorta as a finale of the fall quarter. December 10 Back at the old grind. Why is my schedule so inconvenient? Other students don't seem to have eight o'clock classes. ' December 13 Despite all the low grades our parents received, we had a big informal shin-dig. WINTER QUARTER December 10 Winter quarter begins. Looks like we are in for a snowy season and worlds of fun. December 15 The Glee Club entertained us by Christmas Carol service. Would have been good if Rheta Thomas hadn't tried so hard, to get in the front row. December 18 Training School Carol service. December 21 Christmas vacation started. Of course none of us wanted a vacation. Daddy Gammage had to bribe us to get off the campus. December 30 and 31 Games with Whittier, California. This begins our basketball season. Aren't we glad? January 6 We were entertained in much splendor by the Dramatic Club with the Twelfth Night Revelsf' Lavik was a very gallant king, while Dean Minnie made a regal queen indeed.
