the same day, at the U.C.C. func- tion, Ed Dickens debated his way to the title of second best prepared speaker. In the final meeting of the year at U.T.S., the Appleby team of Bryan Davies, Colin Richards, and Nick Water- field took the Golden Turkey for the best debating team and Nick Waterfield was awarded the title of best speaker of the tour- nament. Congratulations to all those in- volved in any of these un- dertakings. In conclusion, one simple ob- servation will indicate the present strength of our society. The name of Appleby when associated with debating, now draws considerable praise and commendation from the hierar- chy of the Ontario debaters. This record is due to the invaluable support given by all those who have debated this year at all levels, for it is with the majority that the strength of the Society lies. Thank you one and all, and con- tinued success in the future; suc- cess which, with the wealth of talent now present at the School, should be yours for many years to come. N.W.

Debating The Debating Society operated this year at a level of excellence unsurpassed by any other society in the School. Never before have so many debated so well and drawn so much attention to themselves and the society. Within the so ciety, the broadest spectrum of styles of debating was encompassed, from the in- formal atmosphere of the Wed- nesday night debates with St. Mildred ' s, to the more formal, prestigious confines of the Fulford Cup or the Appleby Inivitational Tournament. At one end of the spectrum, the Wednesday night debates proved entertaining and educational to the young, inexperienced mem- bers of the society. The debates were always spirited, and audience participation, at one time unheard of in the staid con- fines of Appleby College, pushed its way to the forefront in an un- predicted and pleasing fashion. We would like to thank St. Mildred ' s for their willing par- ticipation and ability as a drawing card on these oc- casions. At the other end of the spectrum, many debaters displayed their oratorial talents with flair and aplomb and it was this ability that enabled Appleby to win more debates than in any previous year. The greatest measure of our success must be attributed to our coach, Mr. Bill Humphreys. Without his efforts, (which he so kindly contributed to all levels of debating at Appleby) our society would simply cease to function. Thank you, sir! And how rewarding it was! We were more successful in the Fulford Cup this year, than in any previous year, winning three of the six debates and losing the other three only by the smallest of margins. The number of tournaments en- tered and of prizes won therein, stands unparalled. At the Appleby Invitational, a home-grown debater, Bryan Davies, won the prize for the best public speaker. We next attended the tournament at Saint Clement ' s, using this as a preparatory ground, for after this date, things started to roll. At the regionals, Ed Dickens gained a place in the Provinicial Tournament. This achievement led to a seat on the Ontario Debating Team which in turn allowed him to represent the province in the National Debating Tournament held in Winnipeg. Congratulations are certainly due for this outstanding accomplishment. At the Ridley Tournament, Nick Waterfield (to everyone ' s sur- prise) claimed the prize as the best Opposition Speaker. At the Anderson Tournament, the Ap- pleby Team of Bryan Davies, Chris Thompson and Nick Water- field, took first place, with Bryan Davies winning the award for the best Government Speaker. On
