By entering the short story, non-tic- tion, poetry, or art categories in t he Statesman writing contest, students displayed their literary tal- ent. Entries were carefully considered by each stattf member; the best articles were chosen for their content, style, and quality to be published in the Statesman magazine. After the statf had gathered material, the next step was publicity. Sponsoring a drive, the statt played tapes over the intercom, put up posters, and set up a stand in the hall reminding students to buy their Statesman. As a result of this planning more copies of the Statesman were sold than ordered.

Debate Team Debaters Achieve Honors Representing both affirmative and negative are Anne Street in District and State Meets and John Virkler, proud members of the winning teams. A group of argumentative students finally found their calling—the George Wythe debate team. After much research, they soundly debated: Resolved: That the United States should promote a Common Market for the Western Hemisphere.’ Probing into the steady stream of new articles con- cerning this current problem was a constant duty. With the guidance of their sponsor, Mr. Richard Bell, they made their presence known not only in the Central District but in the State Forensics. The result of a brilliant oratorical battle, they won first place in the Central District Tournament. Going even further, the affirmative and negative teams brought home state trophies for second and third spots, respectively. They also placed in the George Washington University Tournament and the Univer- sity of Richmond Tournament. 58 Organizations
