Jay Leno. David Letterman. Conan O’Brien. Jim Ruzicka? Though he can’t lay claim to fame as a talk-show superstar, South County Toastmaster Jim Ruzicka skillfully entertained his audience at the Division A Humorous Speech Contest recently held at Jefferson College. Jim’s comedic account of the unusual people and places he encountered during a Greyhound bus ride garnered a SECOND place trophy. He will advance to the next level only if the first place winner cannot be in attendance. That competition, the District Contest, is part of the Toastmasters District 8 Fall Conference to be held at Crowne Plazain Clayton, MOon November 20-21. Jim did place first in his club’s Humorous Speech Contest – and at the Area 4 Contest – which allowed him to proceed to the Division level.
