UCY FRANK WINS | ORATORICAL FINALS ‘Montgomery Girl Takes Maryland District Contest Held in Bethesda. Spaking in low mellow tones that fairly | vibrated with feeling, Lucy Frank, 15-| year-old semior of the Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School and champion of | Montgomery County, last night won the | Maryland district finals and the re-! sultant right to compete in The Evé- | ning Star area finals of the national | eratorical con kst | Separated from the victor by & single | unit in_the low-point ballob of the judges, Harriet Adams McCall, 15-yeal old freshman of St. Mary's Seminary Bt.

Wins Cash Award, By virtue of her victory last night | Miss Frank captured not only the right to advance to the highest competition | in this newspaper's contest region, but | also a cash award of $100. Her toplc was “Lincoln's Service to the Constitu- tion,” and as she spoke—tall, stately and poised in s modish frock of gleam- ing white—Miss Frank's oratory was fraught with feeling and expression in her sympathetic discussion of slavery, the Civil War issue, which she showed was the forge in which Abraham Lin- coln's character was tempered. Al- lowed 6 minutes, Miss Frank used 5 minutes 29% seconds. In her second-place winuning oration on “Origins of the Constitution,” Miss | McCall spoke in & massive voice that/ reverberated in its stroug depths. Hers was a concise review of the history of the making of the Constitution, and in her Maryland is assured of powerful representation in the finals if its newly crowned champlon is, for any reawn, unable to carry on. Presenting delightful contrast with the white-clad Miss Frank, Miss McCall | wore jet black, lightened only by a| ghoulder bouquet. She spoke for 5| minutes 49 seconds. Daughter of Engineer. Miss Frank is the daughter of Mr.| and Mrs. Leslie C. Frank of 11 Leland street, Chevy Chase, Md.

And if the announced honors of last night went to girls, Maryland's boys may rest assured they had good repre- sentation in Willlam Radcliffe, the Marlboro High School champion of Prince Georges County, and in F. Lewis | Mitchell, the La Plata High School spokesman for Charles County. Young Radcliffe spoke for 5 minutes 4875 sec- onds on “Lincoln and the Constitu- tion,” while his fellowman used 5 min- utes 1835 seconds on “The Development | of the Constitution.” Pays Tribule to Work. ‘The Maryland State finals were pre- sided over by Oliver Owen Kuhn, man- aging editor of The Star. In his open- ing address, Mr. Kuhn' paid tribute to the work which each of the contestants in the meeting had performed to reach that stage of the contest, and to the contest itself as a means of promoting American principles in the face of Com- munism and other radical movements. “I fear we older folks do not fully appreciate the work these young ora- tors already had performed to reach + even the county finals of the National Oratorical contest,” Mr. Kuhn declared, “and when we consider Lhat these young people are the best which Maryland {can produce, we might well be proud 1o | yecognize the toll of energy they have ! expended in study to attain the high| phases of this great contest.” | Mr. Kuhn traced briefly the history | ©of the National Oratorical Contest, pay- ing tribute to ite founder and organizer, | Randolph Leigh, as the performer of “the greatest single constructive act one could perform in the last decade.” Cit- mm unrest attendaut upon business , political upheavals and Com- munistic campaigns, Mr. Kuhn asserted the National Oral ul Contest, by ln- spiring young Americans the length and breadth of the land to study the old | and sacred principles of American gov- ernment, is one of the most powerful | forces of opposition to the works of those who would destroy and ridicule those principle: A Band Cempletes Program. ‘The judges of last night's flnals were Mrs. Anne Tillery Renshaw of the Ren- shaw School of Speech; J. Fred Essary, ‘Washington correspondent of the Balli- more Sun, and Frank A. Woodward, of the Gordon Junior High | { ‘The program was completed by an elaborate selection of lively tunes played by the Boys' Independent Band of Washington, under the direction of C. J. Brown. Mr. Kuhn commended the young blue-coated musicians and the sudience applauded its subscription to his compliment.
