Exhibiting the qualities of true sportsmanship, the Chess Club com- peted in tournaments matching the masterminds of strategical skill and concentration. Coached by Mr. Dugan, all members attempted to im- prove their game and to succeed in making the Chess Team. The high- light of the club’s activities was ag- reed to be the double-elmination tournament which took place during the school year. The person emerging as the winner took top position in our rank of impressive chess players. Chess Team, first row: B. Huber, D. Congdon, Second row: R. Comfort, B. Drash, D. Garrison. Third row: D.

Debate Team Last year, the Debate Team did extremely well in its first year of formal competition. The negative team won the District division, while the affirmative was runner-up. This year, the team has been invited to participate in ser- veral tournaments and hopes to better last year’s record. The topic under discussion was “Resolved: that the fed- eral government should guarantee a minimum annual in- come for each family unit.” The successfulness of this team depended solely on the effort put forth by the De- bate Team members. 69
