Drama and Forensics Students Mark Busy Year It was another eventful year for the students in speech and drama at General Beadle. Delta Psi Omega, the national dramatics fraternity, continued to increase in membership this year, making the organization one of the largest chapters in the na- tion. To become a member of Delta Psi Omega, one must have had either one major role or two minor roles in college productions. Students may also ob- tain membership by working on production crews. Advisers for the group were Mr. James Le. Johnson and Mr. B. Paul Arnold. Doug Soule served as presi- dent of the organization. The return of Pi Kappa Delta to General B-eadle climaxed a highly successful forensics season. Pi Kappa Delta is a national Forensics Society which GB had joined in 1928 under the direction of Pro- fessor Karl Mundt, who then taught speech at GBSC. The Forensic team itself competed in several re- gional and national tournaments, compiling a better- than-average record against such foes as the U. of Wisconsin, Notre Dame, U. of Minnesota, and others. Advisers were Mr. Johnson and Mr. Kearns. 62 Nancy Wheeler and Dave Thoreson walked away with honors for oral interpretation at the Sioux Falls College debate tour- nament Dec. 9 and l0.
