PUBLICATIONS CUMNOCK COURIER BILL PEARSON, Editor CUTLER L. HUEBENER, Associate During the past year the Cumnock Courier and the Cumnock Yearbook have combined under what is virtual- ly a single publications staff. This system, while purely an experiment, has proven itself to be highly satis- factory. The Courier is a bi-monthly publication, and the yearbook is pub- lished annually. Although the small- ness of the student body limits the printing of actual news, the Courier has met with great success and pop- ularity because of the novel and in- teresting features, and the unique manner of presentation. The Courier maintains an active exchange list which includes many of the impor- tant high school and college publica- tions. Standing: Seymour, Main, Vail, Houser. Seated: Felsted, Gage, Huebener, Pearson, Baird, Mrs. Briggs. 44

HERBERT WINANS 46 Debating, as an interscholastic ac- tivity, was adopted by Cumnock for the first time this year. Student support and interest has greatly aided the debating and oratorical teams in their recent successful contests. Op- position in non-league debates with other high schools and colleges has been excellent, but the Cumnock team has maintained a surprisingly high average for a pioneering year. The national junior college question tor this year was, Resolved: That Congress Should Have the Right by Two-thirds Vote to Reverse Supreme Court Decisions Declaring Acts of Congress Unconstitutional. The for- ensics team consisted of the follow- ing: Baird, Linton, Alexander, Gray, and Pearson, Herbert L. Winans, Coach. lt is anticipated that the forensics department will be increased next year, for the success of those partici- pating during the preceding year was so marked as to arouse the great in- terest ot the student body.
