Miss'Petten, 16, "Ill be 17
in two weeks," she said in an
interview on Sunday, is the
daughter of Vince and
Adrienne Petten of Gorrie.
The Pilgrimage for Youth
competition is held annually
in Ontario. Winners of the
competition get an 11 -day
tour; the highlight of which is
an entire day and evening at
the United Nations.
"The competition consists
of either writing an
examination on the United
Nations or a public speaking
contest," said Miss Petten.
"I decided to enter the public
speaking."
Her prepared speech was
on the topic of "Martin
Luther King and Civil
Rights" and her two -minute
impromptu speech was on
"Job Hunting".
"I was lucky," she says of
the impromptu topic she
drew. "I spent last week job
hunting and I just told them
what happened."
As for her prepared
speech, Angela Petten says
she usually picks topics that
are somewhat controversial.
"I always get something
not everyone will agree
with," the outgoing student
laughed. "Previously I spoke
on discrimination against
women and on pollution. A
lot of people didn't seem to
think much of my speech on
discrimination, but I got
second."
The competition in Clinton
on Friday night, she says,
",was really tough".
She is excited about the 11 -
day educational bus tour she
will take in July with ap=
proximately 25 other Ontario
winners of' the competition.
After staying overnight in
Ottawa the students will
travel to New York where
they will spend a total of four
'days. In New York they will
Visit the United Nations, the
Empire State building, the
Statue of Liberty, Radio City
Music Hall and take in a
stage play.
In New York the Canadian
students will get together
with a comparable group of
American students. While
Miss Petten says she still
doesn't have all the details.
