The Juco Debate Squad this year had a very active and con- centrated debate season. The teams attended the Kansas State Meet, the Southwest Divisional, and the Savage Invitational Meet, held in Durant, Oklahoma. This was all in adition to attending the invitation and practice tournaments held by vari- olar colleges in Kansas. The active squad this year was made up of two debate teams — Kenneth McCaffree and Oscar Guinty; Juanita Rockwood and Wil- bur Harms. Members of Phi Rho Pi who added much to the success of the organization are Maryalyce King, who competed in reading contests in several tournaments; Loyd Breakey, Marjorie Sparks, Warren Duncan, Morris M oon, all debaters who jarticipated in inter-collegiate tournaments. Kenneth McCaf f ' ree was entered in the oratorical declamation contests in almost every tournament. Juanita Rockwood entered in after-dinner speaking contests. Members of both debate teams were extemp speakers as well and placed in several contests. The results of the work of the 1937 squad may be seen in the college trophy cases. — Juanita Rockwood

The Young Men ' s Chris- tian Association is a union of students and faculty members for the purpose of creating, and maintaining high standards of Chri stian ideals throughout our school and community. About thirty men as active members accepted this responsi- bility, and received their membership in the national Y. M. C. A. A variety of meetings was made possible through the good work of cabinet members. They all seemed to be untiring in their efforts to further the program of the as- sociation. Kenneth Locke, as president of the association, proved a real leader. Clarence Kerns was responsible for an evening of informal fun at an election party . Mel- vin Murphy saw to it that we were entertained with gDod music at all our meetings and organ- ized a quartette. Be cause Clarence Borger was enthusiastic we able to present and church services at near by towns. Good publicity, contributed by Jimmie Baker helped to make the organ- ization an outstanding one. Gilbert Cherryholmes repre- sented the association in the Student Council, Loren James proved a big helo with his work in devotion. And without Mr. Dick ' s un- erring advice and the Dean ' s splendid cooperation, we could never have accomplished so much. were community One of the biggest steps taken this year was the organization of the Student Christian Movement. This work calls for study of local, na- tional, and international problems of vital interest to all students. This movement is sponsored jointly by the Y. W. C. A. and the Y. M. C.
