While considering topics of current interest during meetings and holding inter-club de- bates at East, the members also had outside activities. One of these was the annual Speech Festival, in which East competed against West, Dimond, and Chugiak. Debate Club was organized into four teams of two members each for inter-school contests. Topics were varied and emphasis was placed mainly on persuasive skill. Of particular interest to East's debaters was the National Debate Topic. This year it was Resolved: that the United States should establish a system of national service for all citizens.
