32 CRESCENT BEACH ECItES ,r Pram 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. (Mratnrikal and e1rnamatnrp unntrst 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
