Se mi-Final Orat orical Conte st by Myrna Wakefield XII When the students returned to O.,D.H.S. after New Years , the first thing that caught their eye when they entered was the show-case. In it sat four shiny silver cups which made them take another look. On closer observation they noted that they were the Curry and Aiken cups which were awarded to the best speakers in the Junior and Senior oratorical contest. The halls buzzed with the excitement for the next two or three weeks. The students were pounding their heads in search of a brilliant idea which would furnish enough material to give an intelligent speech. The big encyclopedia, that sat from one year to the next with- out coming in contact with any student, was all of a sudden taken down from itS perch to be one of the best used books that the school had ever owned. Before the semi-finalists could be chosen, a class come petition was held in which every pupil gave a prepared composition on any topic of his or her selection. After every student in the room had given his speech, the students chose the three or four that they would like to see represent their grade. Finally seven brave intel- lectual students out of Grade eleven and twelve were given the op- portunity to represent the seniors and about ten for the juniors. On February llth the big event took place. Mr. Cline acted as master of ceremonies and four of the teachers were judges. Each contestant drew a number to determine the order in which he would speak. After each contestant gave his prepared speech, he picked three titles from a hat and it was up to him to choose one and give an impromptu on it. Mr. Cline gave the decision of the judges in assembly the following day. Irwin Gillespie, Barry Woodyard, Bill Shannon, and Howard Simpson were chosen as the winners of the semi-finals for the seniors and Eleanor Marshall, Barry James and Ken Rowley for the juniors. All those who spoke in the semi-2-finals received a sil- ver spoon engraved with the year l955 . H ll H
