DECLAMATION CONTEST WON BY VISITORS Ketchikan Takes Honor in Two Divisions—Pet- ersburg in Third Precedents of outcomes in the Southeast Alaska Declamatory con- tests were shattered last night be- fore a capacity crowd in the Grade School Auditorium when Ketchikan participants walked off with the cups for the Dramatic and Humor- ous divisions and a Petersburg stu- | dent took the cup for the Oratory division. Margaret Anderson, who also rep- resented Petersburg last year, took | the honors in the Oratory division | by her firm clear voice in reading “What Price War” by Faron E. Tur- ner. In this division Jack Jacobsen | of Ketchikan recetved second place and Charles Jenne of Juneau, third. Humor Division First honors in the Humor di- vision were awarded to Jean Reid- erer of Ketchikan, who won the au- | dience with her sportive exercise of | the imagination in the reading “An Aspiring Dishwasher.” Bernice Lovejoy of Juneau was awarded sec- ond place and Mertie Johnson of Petersburg, third. Dramatic Section A spirited presentation of “The Burgomaster’s Death” was given by Helen Shimizu of Ketchikan who re- ceived the cup for the Dramatic division. Archie Gubser of Juneau also dramatically portrayed the | same piece and it was only by the difference of a very few points that he was given second place. Margaret Tveten of Petershurg did very fine | work in this division, also adding to the Judges’ difficulties in making | their decisions in this group. | Superintendent A. B. Phillips was | chairman of the contest last night | and was assisted by Edwin Hildre, | Lichard Aiken, timers; Leonard Lo- well. electrician; Lewis Taylor, stage | _ Daily Cross-word Puzzle ACROSS 1.
