DEBATE AND DECLAMATION DEBATE The Pierre debaters, arguing the question, Resolved, that all electric utilities be governmentally owned and operated, enjoyed a successful season. A squad of twenty-Eve, including eight Frosh, was maintained throughout the season. Phyllis Dunn, Margaret Dyar, Martha Dunagan, Alice Henson, Francis Hines, jean Riggs and Ruby Weidlich qualified for letters. The debaters participated in several interscholastic contests during the year. Sixteen schools entered the Second Annual Central South Dakota Speech Tour- nament, sponsored by Pierre High. Prof. Cochran of Carleton College acted as special critic judge. ln debate, Pierre tied for second place with Rapid City and Geddes. Margaret Dyar placed third in extempore speaking. Highmore held an invitational debate contest in February with fourteen schools represented. Pierre tied with Highmore for first place in the debate division. Pierre won the District Debate Tournament. Margaret Dyar placed second in extempore speaking. This debate victory entitled our teams to enter the State Tournament, held at State College, Brookings, March 25th, 26th, and 27th. DECLAMATION Twentysfive students reported early in September for work in declamation, an unusual number reporting in the new poetry division.
