®fje Cfjtnook THE DISCUSSION CLUB Of this club Normal should be proud. It has not only had a busy year, but a wonderfully successful one. A great deal of this success is due to the energy and efficiency of the executive, composed of: Mr. McKerricher, Honorary President; Mr. L. McKenzie, President; Mr. J. Sauder, Vice-Presi¬ dent; and Miss MacKinnon, Secretary. Soon after the club was organized it entered the City Debating League. Six debaters were chosen to represent Normal in this League. Mr. R. Morton and Mr. D. Splane won the first debate with the Leisure Time League. Following up this fine example, Mr. H. Cummins and Mr. Galdzinski, in the second debate, defeated the Tea Kettle Inn “B.” The third and semi-final debate was won by Mr. Calder and Mr. B. Morton from the Knights of Columbus Club. In the final debate against the Tea Kettle Inn Spokes Club, Mr. J. Calder and Mr. R. Morton ably upheld the reputation of Normal by winning the Davidson Cup, emblematic of the League Championship. However, debating has not been the only pursuit of this club. Before Christmas a Mock Parliament was formed which functioned until March. It was used to discuss present-day topics and help the debaters. Valuable aid in this undertaking was given by Mr. McKerricher, Mr. Flanagan and Mr. Sauder. Page Thirty-One

tEfje Cfjtnook CLASS 1 B GEORGE WALKEY, Pincher Creek. Undoubtedly a very practical mind, whcih makes him conspicuous even in a large student body. He is the secretary of the Students’ Dramatic Association, and is accepted as the star radio announcer of Class 1 B. A youth with a personality that cannot be forgotten. HUBERT WEST, Mountain View. Hubert plays guard on the basketball team, and makes up in speed what he lacks in size. Being a happy-go-lucky sort he is well liked by his class¬ mates. His forte is mathematics in which he secured 100% on the examin¬ ation. We recognize this little man by his southern drawl and blue eyes. VIRGIL WHITE, Calgary. Virgil spent a year at Mount Royal Junior College. He has considerable ability with the saxophone and his resounding voice is the back¬ bone of 1 B’s singing class. Virgil is the proud owner of a nice roadster, and he must be a good driver because we never hear of him being in court. WILLIAM WIGHT, Calgary. Bill is one of the quiet, reserved students, who helps to give sense of balance to his class. He displays great interest in basketball and is one of the scoring threats on the second team. His ready smile and helping hand are appreciated by his classmates. CARL YOUNG, STIRLING. Carl is the centre of the Normal basketball team. He is noted chiefly for his dramatic ability and keen sense of humor. Although of a rather retir¬ ing nature, he is ever willing to do his part. One of his chief ambitions is to learn to sing Peg O’ My Heart.” Page Thirty
