GIRL TO REPRESENT ST HARYS COUNTY Frances Gertrude McKim, Seminary Senior, Wins Oratory Contest. Displaying dramatic ability and poise, Frances Gertrude McKim, 18-year-old senjor ot St. Mary's Seminary, last night won the right to represent St. Marys County in the Maryland State finals of the National Oratorical| Contest Speaking on “The Constitution, a Guarantee of Personal Liberty,” she traced the growth of freedom as re- flected in America’s basic law from the “American Bill of Rights” to the woman's suffrage amendment. The presiding officer was Willlam Alexander Loker, who won The Star area finals of the contest in 1927. He lauded the effect of the study of the Constitution on the youth of the county and paid high tribute to The Star, which sponsors the competition in this region. Yowaiski Is Secand. Second place in last night's contest was awarded to Aubrey S. Yowaiski of Leonard Hall, who will act as alternate should Miss McKim be unable to speak in later contests. The balloting of the Jjudges indicated that the winner and runner-up were extremely close in juality of oratory. Yowaiski spoke on the subject “Personal Rights Invaded.” There were five speakers—four girls and a boy. Besides those already men- tioned, they were: Rebecca B. Wallace, 18 years old, Mechanicsville High | School. “The ~Constitution”; _Frances M. Thompson, 17 years old.
