CHRVQVGD GCwiYE Igf.f r DEBATE The question for this year's debate was: Resolved that the direct primary system of elections should be abolished. The affirmative team was composed of Eloise Robinson, Willis Nye, Howard Diller and Elsie Criger, alternate, While the negative consisting of Pauline Stiner, Cora Miller, Donald Kurtz, and Jennie Steen, alternate, ably defended the pri- mary. The first clashes of the season were with Bluffton and Kenton in the inter-scholastic debates. Carey's affirmative team won from Kenton on the home platform, and her negative also carried off the honors from Bluffton. One month later Carey debated Harpster and Sycamore in the county debate. Again both teams were victorious and the debaters enthusiastical- ly prepared for the finals which were to determine the county champion- ship. Eden proved an easy victim for the negative but the affirmative team ran into some real competition at Nevada and was defeated by a small majority. In spite of the fact that the coveted cup Was Won by Ne- vada, Carey's debaters deserve to be congratulated upon their unusually fine record. . The debate record of five victories and one defeat proves conclusive- ly what an unusually efficient coach Miss Cleo Sawyer is. Her efforts were untiring and her patience seemingly inexhaustible.
