 bekate GIqM. The Debate class, taught by Mr. Dan Maher, had five members; R. C. Winks, Joyce Sathers, Don Matheney, Sharon Chapin, and Ordean Johnson. This class spent the first six weeks discussing subjects of current importance such as Who Should Be The Next President of the'U. S.,” Is Consolidation of Schools a Good Thing?” How Could Our Hunting and Fishing Laws Be Changed? Should The Office of State Superintendent of Public Instruction Be Elective or Appointive?” Is Socialism a Good Thing? , and Should the U. S. Belong to the U. N.? These subjects taught the class a lot about current events. The next six weeks were spent in study of speaking; how to enunciate, project the voice, and use expression, and ways to recognize prejudice and false advertising. The proper pronunciation of words was also studied. During the third six weeks we gained a knowledge of foreign words and phrases, their pronunciation and meaning. On the 17th of January an invitational speech tournament, taking in fifty schools was held in Pendleton. It was a successful affair for the Echo Speech Class with Joyce taking second honors in her Prose Reading, The Gusher, Sharon receiving a 2nd place in poetry with The Barrel Organ, by Alfred Noyes and 1st place with her oration You and the United Nations.” Sharon represented Echo in the finals and received 1st place.
