Toastmasters:
public speech
*
Toasting was in order as the
Toastmasters installed their new
officers on January 16. "Pinned"
to the office as club president
was W01 George H. Randolph, who
looked considerably happier about
the idea than on first impression.
Public speaking has been the
terror of many, yet the Toastmas-
ters brave each other's critical
eyes weekly to acquire the sponta-
neity and concise speaking which
will be of infinite worth in a
life that Involves people.
But does that really eliminate
anyone? Public speaking not only
enables a person to feel at ease^^
in a group, but also lessens som^V
of the major problems that arise
between just two people.
Meetings are held each Wednes-
day at 7 p.m. at the 56 Club with
parliamentary procedure used in
depth. The program is divided
into three parts. After the week-
ly business is out of the way
(part one), then begins part two.
And it can be hard, with 18 regu-
lar members, 18 people and their
guests watching closely to see if
you really do scratch your nose
or take your shoes off in a ner-
vous fit behind the podium. And
they wait.
Till the end of the speech you
don't know whether there are
smiles of pride pervading the aud-
(See SPEECH, Page 4)
