FORENSICS The cultivation of the basic Speech skills is the primary motive of our Forensics group. Mr. Grassl, our Speech teacher and Forensics coach, has emphasized the importance of speak- ing and listening as attributes of the well- rounded personality. In the fall, Speech students began working on their first activity, the Armistice Day Pro- gram. On Monday, November 12 this program was presented before the assembled stud-ent body. It consisted of serious declamations, read- ings, musical numbers, and a one-act play. Those students who participated were as follows: Dave Dobrzynski, Allene Kenney, Bob Wojtale- wicz, Eddie Woijtalewicz, Nancy Lindquist, Rosanne Conway, Pat Kenney, Virginia Kinas, Bernadette Cukla, and Ruth Bogumill. As in previous years Thorp students took part in the league and district contests. Our local Speech contest was held in two sections-one on March 12 and the other on March 14. Out of approximately forty partici- pants these students emerged as winners: Humorous Declamation: Rosanne Conway, Eddie Wojtalewiczg Serious Declamation: Julia Kaminski, Pat Kenney, Learned Oratory: Virginia Kinas, Bob Wojtalewiczg Original Oratory: Dave Dobrzynski, Lillian Przybylski, Four-minute Speech: Bernadette Cukla, Allene Kenney, Extemporaneous Speaking: Richard Wiater, Gene Zaskeg Extemporaneous Reading: Tasia Harycki, Pat Urbas. We are sincerely proud of these students who rated Page Thirty Freshmen Declaimers: Leon Kotecki, Sandra Short, Sonia Szymoniak, Annette Hokkanen, Ruth Bogumill, Dorothy Deutschlander, an A in the very competitive league contest held at Withee on March 26: Rosanne Conway, Pat Kenney, Allene Kenney, Bob Wojtalewicz, Tasia Harycki, and Pat Urbas.
