B—10 =« QRATRY VIR B FROM TRP Miss Sadle Says Experiences of Two Months Were Wonderful. Miss Minnie Sadle, the Business High School senior who talked herself into honors, cash reward and an eight | weeks' trip to Europe when she won The Star area finals of the National Ora- torical Contest last Spring, has re- turned to Washington With two months of exciting travel behind her and a college course she will begin in February ahead, Miss Sadle terms the tour with the other national gone oratorical winners “a wonderful experience” and “greater reward, we all | agreed, than we could ever deserve even for the hard work we did to win.” Miss Sadle, who had never been to Europe before, although her mother is of English and her father of German descent. saw both those countries and five others, besides, as she traveled. With her went Miss Murial Herzstein, winner of the New York zoneg John H. Jarman, jr., of Oklahoma City. the Midwestern zone champion; John P. Ansley of Birmingham, Ala, the Southern victor, and John Scanlon of Springfield, Mass, winner in _the Northeastern zone. Dr. and Mrs. Glen L. Swiggett acted as chaperones for the party, as they have done for many. years in the past. New Experiences Found. In every country they found new &ights and experiences to broaden the views they had formed in studying the history and government of America, the girl orator said. Their special pre- dilections also found intellectual sub- stance to feed upon, almost more than they could digest in a single trip. Miss Sadle, for example, is an art student and was, therefore, interested in sculpture and painting. In Rome, London, Paris, Munich and every place they visited she found more to see and more to learn, she said. Others in the party found architec- ture, archeology, history or government most fascinating in each country, and in every case there was ample oppor- tunity to pursue those subjects. The tour moved without a fixed itinerary, the wishes of the students being con- sulted as they traveled and the route planned to satisfy the greatest number. ! Diversions Are Numezous, All their time was not passed in sightseeing by any means, Miss Sadle asserted. In Heidelberg they bought students’ caps, in France they collected wooden shoes and shopped when their purses and Paris prices could reach a compromise. In London, Rome, Switzer- land, wherever they went, the opera, theaters, automobile jaunts and shop- ping expeditions played an important part in their activities. It was no easy task to win her way to first honors in The Star area, where hundfeds of high school students of Washington, Maryland and Virginia compete for the zone championship, Miss Sadle said, reviewing her efforts in the contest, but the rewards are twice again worth the fight. To see Rome, Paris, Cologne, Munich, Amsterdam, Florence—any one of them would be enough, she says. To see them all is, as she puts it, nothing short of won- derful. Miss Sadle expects to enter college in New York at the Pebruary term. She will prepare herself to become a teacher, W. R. JOHNSON DIES Brother of “Ban” Johnson of Base Ball Fame Former Ohioan.
