THE ANNUAL DEBATE HESE are the men who, after a careful process of elimination, have been put forward by their societies as the best talent for the annual commencement debate. The im- portance and significance of the commencement debate has grown until, in late years, it has come to be regarded as a classic, and the debators given an unusually large amount of time and effort to their preparations for the contest. It is looked upon as the greatest event. ne-xt to the presentation of the diplomas, of the commencement exercises, and from the announcement of the subject early in the year to the decision of the judges just after the contest. interest in the debate grows steadily. The question this year is: Resolved: That foreign immigration to the United States should be prohibited for a period of four years. AHFIRMATIVE NECIATIVE Andrew Smalley Eugene Craig Cecil Peeples P.

THE STUDENTS' ASSOCIATIO GLENN R. Lewis - - President. JOHN H. THOMPSON - - Vice President OMA GRIGGS - - - Secretary HERE was a time during I9Z0-21 when Clarendon College was moved to Ama- rillo, Texas. It was next to necessary, proved conclusively a certain fact, and came about thus: In possible cases, where the profundity of the faculty and the majesty of our build- ings might not impress the stranger with the fact that a college exists here in Clarendon, the Students' Association is called upon to do the trick, and it is always done happily. speedily, and with proverbial eclat. At the C. C.-Wayland football game at Amarillo a train load of students gave vociferous testimony that where the interests of the College were, there were the interests of the students. A Waylander at the game said: lf we beat them we can say we beat Clarendon College, for the whole college is here- That expresses, in a way, the function of the Association. It makes each student feel that he is a part of the College.. PAC! SlXTY'llGHT

THE PRESS CLUB HAROLD BOEHNINC. - - - President Bruum Ganusrr - - Vice President ALICE MULKEY - - Secretary ALVIN Osaormi: - - - - - Treasurer COLORS Black and White MOTTO Make it Perfect THE Press Club, as such, is a new organization in the school, having been organized only last year. However, we started out right at the beginning of the year. and have been doing active work throughout the session. We hold our place along with the universities of the state as a member of the Texas Inter-collegiate Press Association. and have been meeting its requirements. But, more than that. we have been at work from week to week. in an effort to develop efficiency in the line of Press work. and to back up our College publications with enthusiastis support. Though we have had to meet during the class hours, we feel that we have been, at least to a large extent, successful in securing the aims of the club, and that our efforts have not been in vain. Let us say. also, that the activities of the Club have not all been drudgery. for we have had interesting and humorous programs with tasteful variety. Moreover. the grand social event of the year. April the twenty second, was pleasure long to be remembered by all the members. Yes, we have talent for both these lines of activity. qu-f ' hge.. 'I '-Ls' 'L' X -r sue PAS! SIVI. NTYU A
