HAWAI ENTERS BOY IN ORATORY FINALS Samuel King, Jr., 16, En Route Here to Participate in Contest. Traveling over 5000 miles as the first representative of Hawaii in the finals of a National Oratorical Contest, a 17-year-old school boy, Samuel King, Jr.. is en route to Washington for the tenth annual finals on May 20 in Con- stitution Hall. This young man, representing the Pacific zone in the finals as well as| his adopted home, is said by reports received here to have an excellent chance of winning first honors in the contest. He is the son of a naval officer stationed in Honolulu and is himself a true cosmopolite, having been born in China and educated in the| United States. At present he is a senior at Punahou High School. His subject in the May 20 contest is “Hawali, an Integral Part of the United States.” His oration will be particu- larly interesting because it deals with current questions relating to the appli- cation of American law to the island. Col. A. W. Gullion, whose son, Ed- mund G. Gullion of Western High School, won the national and inter- naticnal championship in the oratorical finals of 1931, is stationed in Honolulu and has_frequently heard young King speak. He reports that the Hawaiian Tepresentative will be a formidable con- tender for the national championship this year. The young man expects to arrive in Washington three days prior samuEL Na.
