The Junior Piom. given at Perry's Opera House, April 4, 1913, 
was one of the most successful proms ever given in the history ot 
the High School. It was well attended and every one re.orted having 
spent an enjoyable evening. 
The hall was beautifully decorated in the Senior and Junior class 
colors, green, white and maroon. 
The Grand March led by Professor and Mrs. Norris, followed by 
Miss Burris and Mr. Bonneville took place at nine o'clock. Dancing 
continued until two. 
The music furnished by Vandenberg's Orchestra of Green Bay 
xas very good.

A school oratorical and declamatory contest was prepared and 
held at De Pere April 18, 1913, by the league, including Algoma, De 
Pcre and Bnillion. 
The preliminary contests were open to all the students, but only 
fourteen girls and seven boys volunteered. Of this number seven boys 
end seven girls were chosen. 
On the evening of March 23 the contest was held in the High 
Schcol building. The decision of the judges was in favor of Hildegarde 
Wi:niak, Agnes Birdsall, LeRoy Long, Werner Moegenberg, who on Fri- 
day morning, April 18, accompanied by Principal Norris, went to De Pere 
where they met the other contestants. The contest was held in the 
evening. Both the oratorical and declamatory contests were very 
cod and the three judges had considerable difficulty in sefdcting the 
winners; it was finally agreed upon that De Pere receive first and 
F(cond places in the declamatory and second place in the oratorical, 
Brillion first in the oratorical and Algoma third in both. But even of 
these honors we may well be proud as De Pere had excellent training. 
After the contest an imformal reception was given in the gymnasium, 
,-t which De Pere certainly showed its hospitality. Next year the same 
league intends to have the contest in Algoma. We sincerely hope that 
they be entertained as well by us as we were by them
