Resolved: That Congress should establish uni- form regulations to control criminal investigation procedures. The assertive opinions formed by the Stevenson debaters regarding this proposition con- stituted the ammunition of 196-68 debate season. Mr. Croll, debate coach, made sure that all mem- bers of the debate team were given opportunities to air their opinions in competition with other schools. Besides providing the satisfaction of accomplish- ment and success, debating incurred more tangible rewards for participators, as lim Chisholm, winner of a four-year debate scholarship, can testify. For its record of only two losses, the Junior Varsity Debating Team was awarded a trophy and a plaque commemorating its achievement. Mr. Croll, Stevenson's debate coach, was always on hand to stimulate minds, develop ideas, and criticize plans to insure the best attack for his debators. 70
