In class A, Topeca High School ranked second and Wyandotte High of Kansas took third place.
A tall, very dignified man, the he speaker nevertheless showed flashes of humor that were as sharp as they were unexpected—a man obviously completely at ease with his audience and familiar with his subject. It was a great surprise to major: "It was one of the best things I've heard on the Hill."

Benet Is Alternately Serious And Humorous Before Hill Crowd
"Poetry is not a mystery." Mr. Benet pointed out. "We should think of it as a craft. It is condensed more than prose, and depends on exactitude of word and phrase. Every word counts. The would-be writer must learn the craft; then later he can break the rules, as most good poets have done." Yet he went on to explain that

Vienna, Feb. 12 – (UP) -Austria, fearful of a new outbreak of Nazi terrorism, has bought “peace” from Germany at the price of Austrian Nazi participation in the government, well-informed quarters believed tonight as they surveyed results of a surprise conference between Adolph Hitler and Chancellor Kurt Schuschnick.
Austria Bargains With Germany
By Richard MacCann c'40
(Copyright, 1938, by United Press)
At the conclusion of a 36-hour visit with Hitler in Bavaria, Chancellor Schuchsnig returned to Austria tonight and was hailed by his fatherland for his independence, but observers assumed he paid a price.
It was believed certain in informed quarters that the Austrian cabinet soon may be reconstructed, but that one or more moderate Austrian Nazies may be admitted to it and that Austrian Nazies who have "Schuschnigg's approval" may be appointed to positions.
There was no doubt that such cabin enlargements and such change in administration would not mean a change in the Austrian "internal polity" of Austria, as a party, and maintaining a fableback party as the only legal party.
At another period, he said, the apathy toward poetry made it publishable only as filler. "When the story was ending and couldn't quite make it to the end of the page, a wall of broken ornament to fill the space."
metre but upon the vivid vision of the poet. "Poetry," he said, "is art at its most intense. It occurs every time a poem is written and has intensity of vision to see it."
In conclusion, Mr. Ben读 some of his own work, including a "noisy poem" about Jesse James; a tribute to his late late wife, Eleanor Woodcock Wife; and the well-known "Merchants from Cathay."
The speaker th en gave a swift survey of some of the high spots in American poetry. Here his humor often appeared, as when he spoke of his youthful conception of the war, which he "a sort of Panteon of beards."
