Debate One of the greatest values in debate is that it involves researching and analyzing current problems. Debaters quickly become aware of modern issues and strive to develop viable solutions. This year's national debate topic, concerning the quality of water in the U.S., was of particular interest to us in Louisiana as we discovered the many problems concerning the purity of our water and the potential causes of its pollution. The debate team is composed of those students who are interested in competing against other schools in formal debate. The team attended a clinic in Layayette conducted by Baylor University. The highlight of the year was the 4 win-no loss contest against Trafton Academy. Members of the debate team were Will Latham, Laura Weidig, Mark McCoy, Randy Piedrahita, Julie Sternberg, Tracy Broyles, Susan DeFelice, and Clint Howie. Thespians Not only is the International Thespian Society probably the loudest and craziest club at E.H.S., it is also one of the hardest working organizations. The Thespians' two major productions this year were ''You Can't Take It With You , a humorous play, and the musical Annie Get Your Gun. These two extravagant productions required countless hours of work by both the Thespians and the Apprentices. Members of both groups filled positions as actors, directors, costume or set designers, stage crew, or prop manager, to name a few. There's a position for anyone with any interest in the Thespian Society. Luckily, all Thespians and Apprentices have a strong interest in theater and eagerly volunteer to help out with all productions, including those of the Middle School. In order to be a Thespian, an apprentice must earn 10 points which equals approximately 100 hours of work in ail aspects of theater. This year new members were inducted or tapped into the Society. In order to be a full-fledged Thespian, newly tapped Apprentices must pass the secret initiation process which takes place twice a year at a Thespian party. In addition to performing at school, Thespians displayed their many talents at various Forensic Tournaments and at the I.S.A.S. Fine Arts Festival. Thespian President Missy Harris feels that after all the long hours of hard work and complaints, it is such a thrill to see a show finally come together. This idea holds true for all Thespian activities; their hard work is paid off by the applause of their audiences. Chess Club-Ricky Speciale. Joseph Cummings. Philip Zuber.
