The Sub-District Declamatory Contest 935550 At Faribault our representatives march- ed boldly to the stage and gave their selections to the best of their ability with no bad re- sults. Waterville was placed first along side of Faribault and many other strong towns by walking off with two first places and one third. Irene Broughton received first in drama- tic, Elmer Christjaener first in oratorical, and Irene Van Fleet third in humorous. We feel greatly honored with these re sults, and although no firsts were carried awag at the district contest, held at Hopkins, we were able to get two thirds, and this was say! ing a great deal, because there proved to b4 some keen competition. The coaches, Misses Rose and Spring- meyer, deserve much praise as they had 2 great deal to do with our winning and suffer- ed as bravely as the competitors in practic1 and defeat. o-l---o The Debate On Thursday evening, January the twenty-seventh, a very successful debate was held in the High School auditorium.
