AFS-YPU Active in School Led by Mrs. Schlain, the AFS-YFU club at Seaholm was very active this year. Composed of seniors who went abroad last summer either with the American Field Service or the Youth For Understanding program, juniors who plan to travel abroad in this manner this summer, Seaholm's four foreign exchange students and their American brothers or sisters and other interested students, this club engages in many activities. Richard Straub and Jill Tammen ran the school supply counter fourth hour this year. Members of the club sold candy both for their own activities and to help finance such things as the class ring, the Washington Trip and the Piper for Sea- holm's foreign exchange students. Club members, led by the foreign exchange students, gave periodic presentations about various foreign countries through- out the year. These gave the club members a chance to enjoy an interesting presentation as Well as learn something about a country they might plan on visiting, either this summer through the AFS or YFU programs, or later in their life. u CU

-qv-' , :zu-1 ,.f-- M-M el lx' f TL rr- WK-Hn-QQIQ Debate More Than Argument A regulated discussion of a proposition between two matched sides, to discuss a question by considering opposed arguments. This is what debate means to most students, only a word de- fined in a dictionary. However, to enlightened, hard working stu- dents, debate takes on an entirely different meaning. To them de- bate means frequent visits to the library for material, teamwork, self-denial, late nights, extreme tensiong frustration, mental exhaus- tion, and a very good chance of not representing your school in a single debate. Unknown to many people, the Seaholm debate team has been quietly building up a reputation, until it is now recognized as a major power, not only in the Southeastern Michigan Association and in the Metropolitan League Ctwo debate regionsl, but in the entire state. This year the team won their Metropolitan division. The topic that was debated this year was: Resolved: that the Federal Government should establish, finance, and administer pro- grams to control air and water pollution in the United States. The affirmative team supported the debate proposition of Federal Control of pollution projects, while the negative team advocated that the interstate, state, or the local governments should control the pollu- tion projects.
