Additional Honor Planned For Prize Winning Oration
The winner of the annual Lorraine Buehler Oratorical contest this year will receive an additional honor besides the set of Encyclopedia Americana.
He, or she, will 'see the winning oration given a permanent place in the archives of public speaking. It will be included in one of the subsequent issues of the Gavel, national publication of Delta Sigma Rho, honorary debate fraternity, William Conboy, instructor in speech, said today.
The finals of the contest are to be held at 8 p.m., Tuesday, Feb. 27, in Strong auditorium. Tryouts will be at 4 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. Monday, Feb. 26.
This is the fourth year of the Lorraine Buehler Oratorical series. Plans for holding a series of contests honoring the memory of the late wife of E. C. Buehler, professor of speech, originated in 1947. Mrs. Natalia Calderwood, instructor of English, was appointed chairman of a faculty committee to consider the project.
Friends and admirers of the late Mrs. Buellier contributed to a fund which enabled the committee to set up a five-year program of oratorical contests. Walter Ross, Kansas City businessman, and a long friend of the Eichler family, arranged that the first prize each year should be a full set of the Encyclopedia Americana.
The first contest was held in the spring of 1948 and was won by William Cosby, now instructor of speech. The 1949 contest was won by Ernest Fiesen, Craig Hampton won first prize in 1950.
Entrer for the contest this year include: Steve Mills, Kent Shearer, Donald Giffin, and Fred Six, College seniors; Heywood Davis and Kerwin Koerper, College juniors; Orval Swander, business junior; Otis Simmons education junior; Mary Anne O'Neill and William Van Almen, College sophomores; and Richard Sheldon, Robert Ball, and Stuart Connell, College freshmen. Entry deadline is 5 p.m. today.
