I. General Plan All preliminary contests are for local participation and they are held under
the auspices of the county fair concerned. These preliminary events climax in the

are optional and must follow the rules of the MAFF Public Speaking Contest.
Appropriate awards will be given by the Missouri
Association of Fairs and Festivals.

2. The state contest will be open only to students who are currently
enrolled in grades nine-twelve (9-12) during the current year, either boy
or girl.
3. Each contestant’s manuscript will be the result of the student’s own
efforts. It is expected that the contestants will take advantage of all
available training facilities in their local school in developing their
speaking ability, facts and working data may be secured from any
source, but must relate to fairs and agriculture.
4. Contestants competing MUST HAVE the following materials with them:
a. Four (4) double-spaced, typewritten copies of the speech on 8 1/2
x11” white bond paper.
b. A signed statement of originality on a form provided.

III. SubjectsContestants may choose any current subject for their speeches which is of
an agricultural character, relating to county fairs, and which is of general
interest to the public. Official Judges of the public speaking contest shall
disqualify a contestant if he speaks on a non-agricultural subject.
IV. Time LimitEach speech shall be a minimum of six (6) minutes in length and a
maximum of eight (8) minutes. Each contestant will be allowed three (3)
additional minutes of time in which he will be asked questions relating to
his speech. Deductions of twenty (20) points per minute, or major fraction
thereof, will be made from the score of each Judge for speeches under six

Association of Fairs and Festivals.
VII. The BibliographyAll contestants in the Public Speaking Contest should give credit to others
where any direct quotes, phrases, or special dates are used in the manuscript
in order not to be guilty of plagiarism. The Board of Directors of the MAFF at
their May, 1973 meeting in Jefferson City, MO adopted the following:
*A bibliography must be included as part of the public speaker’s manuscript, and direct quotes from any other source of information must be
marked in “quotes” on the manuscript and be identified in the bibliography.
Failure to do so will automatically disqualify a contestant.
