Being in Forensics or Debate can provide anyone with experiences that will last a lifetime. Many peo- ple don't know very much about Forensics, it's contest speaking and acting for prizes at tournaments. Debate is just that, debates against people from different schools. The two teams had an excellent year this year, under the new leadership of Mrs. Linda Pauley. The speakers and actors of the forensics team went on field trips and participated in contests at Kearney St., Sioux City and Creighton. They learned a lot this year and will put their best foot forward and continue their standard of excellence next year. The debate team travelled to Kearney St., Bry- an and Creighton to compete. Al- though they prepared and prac- ticed, they weren't as victorious as forensics was. However, with a year of experience tucked under their belts, both teams will be even more competitive next year. . 1 . aisss., Q Q s. . - , ., . , M K ' - f l '::- X L. - twbss essex s .. t T K K gg it 3: F 'F ' - ' I - Debate, Forensics Offer Lifetime Experiences 3 .
