SPEECH “I think that | shall never see a billboard lovely as a tree.”’ This was the first sentence of an original oration by Mary Kubes. Her speech told of the overabundance of billboards, and other types of commercialization in America today. She received a blue ribbon for her speech. The person with the most blue ribbons in original oratory is Rob Mains, who wrote a speech about the Great American Gift Give Away. On questioning how far this gift giving should go, he asked, “Does Aunt Matilda’s cat warrant a gift on its 9th birthday?” L TO R: Joe Courtemanche, Paul Sobon, Bill Brandes, Sue Cook, Advisor Miss Seng, Bob Deitner, Dottie Anderson, Mike Siedschlag, Rob Mains, Heidi Gesell, Mary Kubes, Liz Drake, Kris Blakely FHA The Future Homemakers of America, who are responsible for the Spaghetti Dinner and the Homecoming Dance, chose the theme “We Just Can’t Help Believing” for the State | Convention this Year.

Other standards include: Do you help make this world a better place? Do you volunteer your services for worthy causes? Do you have above average dedication to various activities? Do you actively participate in extracurricular activities? Do you actively demonstrate honesty, and concern for others? THESPIANS: You don’t know what embarrassment is until you walk around school wearing a garbage bag for an entire day. Yet this and wearing hats and gloves one day was exactly what a few people from the theatre department had to do. The reason for all this was to teach humility to those who wished to become Thespians. Happily, all who tried made it, and are now members of the International Thespian Society. 25
