Debate Although the debate students make up one of the smallest organizations at G.H.S., it is a very active and worthwhile one. This yea.r's team, debating the problem, Resolved: That the Federal government should sustain the prices of major agricultural products at not less than 901 of parity, has made a fine representation for our school. The debators began the season by Egrticipating in a dis- trict tournament at ver alla and Chippe- vau Falls respectively. Belonging to debate has given the stu- dent a fine opportunity to gain knowledge and experience in speaking techniques and quick thinlslng which they will find useful in their future lives. Speech Every yea.r about the middle of February the speech activities get underway in G.H.S. This year, as years in the past, many stu- dents came out to make an attempt at this very worthwhile enterprise. Among the different types of speeches to choose from are: humorous and serious declamations, original and non-original ora- tory, extemporaneous reading and speaking, four minute speaking, and interpretive read- 1-DG. l956 State Speech winners: Janet Gruehl, Roger Stauter, and Ethel Ryan.

The typical teen-age setting was Ma Rand's Drug Store, better known as Wthe Clubu to the smooth set of East End High. Caroline has been at East End for five weeks now and so far she's broken every rule. No lipstick, moccasins--without socks, and on top of everything she doesn't even flirt. when the fellows Wfeedn her a line she answers them simply and directly. Milt, who has been getting nowhere with her, instigates a bet with Joe claiming Joe will not be able to date Caroline for a week or be able to kiss her. When Caroline's little sister is discovered hid- ing behind the magazine rack withker ears wide open,all the boys promptly become very brotherly-- their loving contributions ranging from magazine subscriptions to gooey sundaes--so she will not reveal their secret. Ae the secret became known theaxhence held their sides with hilarious laughter, with every- one agreeing that the evening was well spent and a real pleasure for all who attended. The Seniors wish to give a very sincere and humble Uthanksn to Mrs. Johnson for all her ef- forts and time of which she gave so willingly, making HYou Can't Kiss Carolinen a huge success. Ma Rand..

Mesa-nn, the coaches, Mr. Olson and Mr. Johnson, help- and Captaln ed them to procure the wins.

The Pirates overall record was four- teen wins and six losses: lO-h in conference play, 3-1 in non-conference action, and 1-l in tournament skirmishes. Grantsburg's 10-lg conference record was good for a second place tie. In tournament action the Pirates advanced to the Sub-re- gional finals before tasting defeat. They won nine of their last eleven games. Comprising the starting line-up for most of the year were forwards Bryan Jensen and 'Butch' Fallstrom, center 'CorkeyW Rams- dell, a d guards Neil Erickson and Bill Mc- Cann. Coach Olson did a splendid job in making the Pirates a winning team. HBU Team Conference Champs For the second consecutive year the Grantsburg Bee's have taken the Conference Championship. Their conference record this year was twelve wins and two losses. They have all done an outstanding job this season and enthusiastically put forth every effort to win. These boys have contri- buted to the upholding of our school spirit. Coach Johnson is to be congratulated for his superb job of coaching. Boys, we're proud of you!

Although Coach Gil Krueger's squad won only two and lost five, they played some interesting base- ball. Victories over St. Croix and Webster were the highlights of the campaign. Three freshmen were included in the predominately mmderclassmen starting lineup at the end of the season. This appears well for the 1957 season. ,, va- ' .. N . 4... as ., -a - x.- -- 4 1,.

Q! 19 This year Grantsburg High School boasts one of the largest and most spirited bands it has ever had. The band has performed at many events throughout the year and everyone has agreed that it has done a good job. During the football season the band ap- peared at the half time at each home game. They combined marching, playing, and manne- vering to make the show enjoyable for all. Because of their fine work the band was in- vited to attend a Superior State Teachers College football game and give a demonstra- tion of their abilitles in marching. The band's playing was recorded and played over a leading Superior radio station that sane evening . L Nugumw. T 'I te In October the band entered a marching and maneuvering contest at Milltown. They came home from his contest with a new trophy to add to their collection. 58 Third row: Jack Huntley, Gary Drohman, Ronnie Olsen, Muriel Peterson, Margie Hatcher, Phyllis Hedlu d, Marilyn Chelmo, Robert Wagenuus, Joe Paquette, Rodney Tyberg, Dean Gabrielson, Wayne Crownhart.

They learned several new numbers and practiced theold ones. The band participated in the band clinic which was held at Webster this year. Each band was given pointers on how they could improve their playing by a guest conductor. In the evening each indi- vidual band played solo numbers and then the bands were combined to present a massed band concert for the public. The last band appearance was the con- cert they presented at our high school in the spring. This was a fine way for the band to end a year of work which had resulted in many accomplishments for the members and dire ector of the band. iii Q ll ll ,.-sggsa A l n4d . -- A- 4 wt' if-V , . -. --Jw. 4' 'f ,sw ,A ia.-so-EQ., '. 0 ,.
