142 UIL Contestants Devote Hours to Practice Contestants competing for the first time in the UIL literary meet never really know what they're up against, said Steve Ellis. We prepare to the best of our ability, yet somehow we wish that we would have devoted more time to studying. Some events lend themselves to practice, but entrants in science and headline writing find that the more they work, the easier the actual test. One student, junior Tammy Boyle, prepared for the state meet in ready writing. l-ler efforts were rewardedg she placed third in the competition. 1. Jeanette Blackwell and Hayden Brooks scan magazines in prepa- ration for competition in persuasive speaking. 2. Ms. Maurine Atwood prepares Tammy Boyle for UIL Ready Writing. 3. Beth Bernhard and Vicki Bishop, all-star cast members, and Pete Hains accept their awards for District One-Act competition. 4.
