FEB 17 78 Speech instructor, team gather honors The forensics team at the College has come a long way from its meager beginnings last spring. The team has grown from four members to 14 and now has six intercollegiate competitions under its belt. It has competed in five of those this year and has placed a member in the finals or brought home a trophy from every meet but one. On March 3 and 4 it will go to Linfield College in McMinn ville in the Tournament of Champions. Last week at the Fifth Annual Smelt Classic in Kelso-Longview, Wash., both Mitch Newton and Mike Day placed third with Lisa Thomas and Mardi Sayles mak ing it to the finals in competition against 20 other schools. "It was a good tournament," said Speech Instructor and Team Coach Frank Harlow, who brought home Rookie Coach of Year honors along with a five Mardi Sayles, Julia Chitty, Lisa Thomas, Mike Day and Mitch Newton planning speech strategy at last week's Smelt pound bag of smelt which was his prize. "Some of them (the team members) have really come a long way," said Harlow. "I hope to send Mitch and Mike to national competition by the end of the year." Next year Harlow is planning to host a speech tournament at the Collège which will be a first for this institution. He feels that the forensics team has given this school much needed recognition among other colleges in the area. "It's given recognition that Clackamas is here," he said, "and all my students are from in district. The biggest thing is that it gives the school recognition in something academic." He also feels that being part of the forensics team is bene ficial to a student's whole aca demic career. "It gives students a semi personalized education," Harlow said, "they learn research and it incorporates all the classes they take at college. It's a cumulation of language, writing, history etc." Classic.
