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

Library Staff Student Librarians Assist Numerous Inquiring Peers What do you mean—there are fifteen books on plant physiology?’ wailed a bewildered library patron. Whether a student wished to probe into re- search projects or to check out a book, the student librarians were always ready to help. These students who volunteered to give a part of each school day (and sometimes overtime) functioned effectively in all the routine duties of the library. Their duties were numerous—supervising the desk, mending books, decorating the bulletin boards, checking per- mits, slipping and shelving books, collecting fines, and in their spare time—running errands. While helping others, they also gained valuable experience in a career they themselves may one day wish to pursue. In every respect, the library staff proved itself an indispensable unit of the school. Librarians, Miss Margaret Sue Copen- haver and Mrs. Doris May, prepare materials for library assistants.
