Miss Georgian Emerson, 4 junior at Anaconda High School, captured first honors in the annual declaration contest held in the school assembly room last night. She won unanimous choice of judges and audience, and observers expect her to represent the school in Missoula next month.
Five girls reached the finals of a declamation contest last night. Miss Emerson won first place receiving a gold medal and a trip, while two silver and bronze medals went to other contestants. Judges praised all performers for their excellent efforts.
