X X Y Y' x -4 Theresa F inks, winner of the Bishop's Oratorical Contest poses with William Flynn of St. Andrew's Seminary, winner among the boys. Speech instruction at St. Agnes' High School is given to all iirst and second year students. At- tention to diction, poise, and pro- nunciation helps to make students speech-conscious . Exercises in interpretation of poetry and dra- matic selections add the necessary polish to good speaking. The hap- piest speech experience of the past year was the winning of the Bishop's Oratorical Contest. For the first time in the history of our school, we have displayed the win- ner's plaque in our hall. It is our firm resolution that it will not be our last time. Sister Rose Alma congratulates Theresa and admires the medal which she was awarded. Newcomers to the school, Freshmen Kay Fischer, Donna Elliott, Joan Burak, Rosemary Hanna, and Arlene Weidner admire the Oratorical plaque in the front hall.

' Health can be fun and strength needn't mean bulging biceps. Our gym classes provide means of healthful group recreation as well as exercises designed to benefit the individual or correct personal weaknesses. An important part of living together is being able to play together. and our days at the KF, have shown us several ways to do just that. Spotters Kathleen La Delfa and Yvonne Masseau make sure that the Horse doesn't throw Elizabeth Mul- cahy. Ballet pays off in ease and grace on the horse as Reva Mc-Mahon demonstrates while Marilyn .lud- son acts as her spotter. 29 It's important to know how to carry your victim out of the water. Here Kathryn Whalen, Eleanor Leonard, Joan Klehr, Ann Palermo, Suzanne Shanahan, Roberta Masseau and Frances Sweeney carry their victims from the pool.
