The Bond Drive, organized for the purpose of paying for a pursuit ship, surpassed all expectations in its success. Under the expert and enthusiastic direction of Mr. Glockzin and Miss Davenport, faculty advisers, Tech students and teachers rallied to the great task and in the 30 days of the drive, exceeded the goal of SlU0,0UU by 559,560 The drive was effectively started at a special assembly program including patriotic selections by the band and choir, community singing, and pep talks by the student co-chairmen, Barbara Davis and Eugene Krygier, and climaxed with an inspiring address by Mr. Lee Mulnix, executive chairman of the Grand Rapids War Savings Committee. Lawrence Kozminski, a former student and member of the Navy, gave a brief, but extremely convincing talk on the absolute necessity of supporting the armed forces. The city was divided into sections, each having a chairman, and a special division of students worked in the downtown area. Much credit must be given to the students who sold stamps and bonds in the booths in stores, and to Maxine Wells, who devoted her time to promote the drive in the school. FIRST ROW I. Bohr, A.

The Debate Team, under the direction of Miss Kosanke, has been very successful in this year's program of activities. The debates and discussions have been on various subjects, but the main subject was, Resolved: That a Federal World Govern- ment Should Be Established. The coach, as well as all of the debaters, were beginners in the activity in this chool. At first, getting the materials together and commencing work was rather difficult for them. lt dicln't take them long to get into harness, however, and enjoyment and fun soon followed along with the work. The debates and discussions were conducted at the various high schools: South, Union, Central, Wyoming, Lee, Ottawa, and Kelloggsville. The team was divided into two groups, one taking the affirmative, and one taking the negative. Each group debated at different schools. Last October the debate team went to East Lansing to attend a debate clinic to get some inspiration for the project. Now at the end of the year of debating, this group can call the year successful as well as enjoyable. SEATED: Eleanor Tromp, loan Koolen, Ruth Poplaski. STANDING: julie Vander Veen, Rita Golembeski.
