MARY KELMAN
Mary Kelman, a senior attending Anderson New Tech High School, recently won the Lassen Regional speech contest and was to move on to compete in the District 4-C1 contest set for Corning on Saturday, April 25.
Miss Kelman's participation in the speech competition is sponsored by Cottonwood Lions Club.
This is the 72nd year that the Lions Clubs of California have sponsored a speech contest, according to Skip O'Brien, spokesman for the Anderson Lions Club.
Each year, more than $100,000 in scholarships are awarded to winners throughout the United States. The overall speech contest winner receives a $21,000 scholarship, O'Brien said.
