inig and George Pulas Win
ners of Kunkel Contest
The Samuel Kunkel oratorical con- |
test for junior boys of Central High i

results of careful training on the part I
of their instructor, Miss Annabell 1

in a forceful, direct manner and the j

est at this period of time Miss Helen

was won by Winston Romig. son of
Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Romig. 630 Camp
street. His subject, "Sympathy For
Russia." was well received by the
audience. His picture does not ap- j
pear because he was too modest to i
let the reporter take it.
The third prize, ten dollars, won by j
George Pulas. was "The American
Farmer and the Liberty Bond." It j
brought out the. attitude of the ma- j
jority of American farmers with ref- i
erence to the Liberty bond. George I

in Central, being cheerleader-in-chlef.
