Are you sometimes too busy "flving your kite" To end your play and come in for the night? I leave you like Kenny to your fate Are vo’i never too party and always too late? — Anna Lee Sorenson ‘ Dennis Deaton ANOTHER FOR CEU left CEU speech student receives junior sweepstakes trophy from Brent West direc-- CEU hosts first Beehive state speech tourney College of Eastern Utah over the past weekend hosted the Bee- hive Championship speech meet This is the first state tournament of the schools of higher education in several years According to CEU debate coach Neil Warren the Beehive Championship meet will be held annually with each school taking its turn as host This annual event will give Utah schools an opportunity to compete against each other on a state-widbasis Sweepstakes in the Senior division went to Brigham Young University Junior division sweep-stakewent to CEU First place honors in Senior debate went to Corey and Fletcher of BYU with second place honors going to Frost and Ochoa also of BYU Third place Senior debate went to two teams from Weber State Ahem and Willis and Joe s seph and Smith First place in oratory went to Edmonds of BYU second place went to Braeggcr of Weber and third place went to Evans of BYU In the extemporaneous speakdiviing category of the Senior sion first place honors went to Evans of BYU second place to Ahem of Weber and third place to Willis also of Weber First place honors in interpretation went to Edmonds of BYU with second going to Freemnn of Weber and third to Stanford also of Weber tor of college relations at CEU at the con elusion of the first Beehive Championship meet held at CEU over the past week end “Calamity Jane" Cast Chosen Opportunity Accepted "Calamity Jane" a western musical is scheduled for April 9 10 and 11 The following people complete the cast: Lonra Golding will play Calamity Jane Barbara Simper has been chosen as her understudy Shanna Semken will star as Katie Brown Ann Barrett will play Susan Adclaid Adams will be portrayed by Christine Baker Ray Sorenson will be Wild Bill Hickock Tom Machala as Lt Danny Gilmartin Art Reid as Henry Miller Dave Baker will play Francis Fryer Mike as Rattlesnake and Doug St Julian will portray "Doc" ported that widows of men are educational Pierce Also eligible are wives or widows of veterans who die of non- The Veterans Administration Mon-fre- di Ken Jarrell Joe the Bartender George Kbntgas as the prospector Kraig Boyd will play Buck Vaughn Shaw as Man and Jay Baggs as Hank The parts of Pete Hugh Kingsley the Doorman and the Manager have not been assigned will play Honors in Junior divison competition went to winners of the following categories: Semken and first Debate: Williams second of CEU: Deaton and Johansen of Snow and third went to two teams Tiyon and Allen of CEU and Anderson and Larsen of Dixie Oratory: first Semken CEU: second Christiansen Snow third Deaton CEU Wil- first Extemporaneous: Snow second Milano Hums CEU third Anderson Dixie first Deaton Interpretation: CEU second Perry Snow third Christiansen Snow re- some 6100 wives and veterans and servicetaking advantage of assistance Administrator of Veterans Affairs Donald E Johnson said certain wives and widows became eligible for benefits under the law when it became effective Dec 1968 1 The law makes educational assistance available to wives or widows of veterans with d total and permanent disabilities and widows of veterans or servicemen who die of causes service-connecte- service-- connected service connected causes while totally and permanently disabled In addition the law covers children of such veterans and servicemen Johnson also reported that one trainee in six was under 25 years of age when she entered training The VA chief added that more than half of the wives and widow trainees about 54 per cent pursued their education in college while about one in 12 just over 8 per cent studied in graduate schools Almost half of the college train- ees a per cent were enrolled on basis while just over of those studying becent per 48 part-tim- 85 e low college level did so on a full- time basis Johnson said He urged persons interested in applying for such benefits to contact their nearest regional VA office |
