3- Q Front Row: james Winchester, Francis Spurrell, Glen Bruner Everett Chapman. .Xrlyn York Second Roux' Elsie Peterson, Beatrice Peterson. Mr. Merrill, Nfildred I lillestad, ll rothy Selvig Debate This fall Coach Nlerrill issued the call for debaters, and nineteen budding experts answered the call. The question which was argued back and forth this year wasi Resolved i That all electrical utilities should be owned and operated by the Government. This was a timely question and deals with T.V.A.3 REA., and other branches of electricity. One of the things looked forward to in the debate year in Northwestern Wisconsin is the Debate Tournament at New Richmond. Eleven schools participated in that this year, among them were New Richmond, Eau Claire, Chippewa Falls, Stillwater, Frederic, Hammond, Baldwin, Clenwood City, Hudson, River Falls, and Amery. At this tournament a debater from one school is teamed up with a debater from another school as it is just a practice tournament, The climax is a banquet at which six of the debaters are placed on an all tournament team. Amery had two of the six, Clen Bruner, who debated in the hnals. and Everett Chapman, who is one of our outstanding debaters. The other two debaters were Arlyn York and Francis Spurrell. The four jokingly call themselves the four horsemen. There are hve other members on the debate squad. Amerys debaters also took a trip to Spooner where they participated in another tournament winning five of their six debates. The week before the tournament the team went to the cities and debated West High and Roosevelt High. They performed quite remarkably before them. The next week the debaters went to Chippewa Falls to participate in the Northern Wisconsin District League Tournament. There they drew or rather fylr. Merrill drew: for the afhrmative: Eau Claire, Durand, and New Richmond: and for the Xegative: Chippewa Falls, Ladysmith and Clenwood City. The affirmative beat Durand and the negative beat Ladysmith, who later beat Eau Claire. the league champions. However. with only two wins they were again kept out of the Hnals. Debate offers the student who participates in it to the fullest extent of his capabilities an opportunity to enjoy his high school career to the utmost. lf it is trips you desire, debate will give them to you, if it is laughter and gaiety. it will give that to you, too. lf you wish the opportunity to improve yourself debate will also do that for you. It will conquer your inborn bashfulness before a crowd and allow you to stand out as a leader among your fellow citizens. After all that is why you are attending high school. You may not believe this but you need but look at this years debate squad and your doubtfulness will be relieved. The debate squad will lose four of its members this year and those four members wish those who are left the best of luck and greatest of successes in the coming year. Page 41
