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.

HONOR SOCIETY' The Cumnock College Honor So- ciety, the membership in which re- quires a scholastic average of B or better, held several enjoyable and in- structive meetings this year. One of the society's finest discussions was presided over by Mr. Horace Craig, guest speaker. At another important gathering, Dr. Herbst, prominent in- ternational specialist, was kind enough to show the society travel- ogue motion pictures taken in In- dia. He also lectured on Indian man- ners and customs. To complete the social activities for the year, the members have planned several short trips, picnics, and dinners. lt is planned that these will be highly successful. Small in membership last semester, but gradually increasing despite the high standard ot requirements set by the college administration, the Cum- nock College Honor Society is pro- gressing in membership and increas- ing its high scholastic standing.
