The greatest value of mem- bership in the National For- ensic League is the encourage- ment and incentive it gives you to become an effective speaker. The National Forensic League of Guilford is sponsor- ing a debate tournament in March at Guilford. We hope this will become an annual af- fair. This year's officers are: Ran- dy Thompson, President, Bruce G a sto n, Vice-President, and Margorie Eisenach, Secretary- Treasurer. for Perfection The National Thespian So- ciety, an honorary drama so- ciety, is a newly formed or- ganization at Guilford High School. The society states it is devoted to the advancement of dramatic arts in the secon- dary schools. At present, the only other Rockford high school belonging to the society is West High School. The name Thespian is de- rived from Thespes, a Greek poet of the sixth century B.C., who is believed to have found- ed the drama. Thespians or actors was adopted in his honor. i A .

For the purpose of enjoyment, game improvement, and healthy competition, Chess Club members met sev- eral times a week. Established four years ago, the club boasted fifty members and had the best potential of former Guilford Chess teams. An active organization, the club sponsored a school tournament and hosted the Northern Illinois Invitation- al-a gathering of twenty-five teams from all over the state for stiff competitive chess. The club also partici- pated in many interscholastic matches and the Boylan Big 8 Tournament of which Guilford was the defending champion. A faculty-student chess match was a new and interesting addition to the Chess Club's activities. Sponsoring the club was Mr. Gary McLamarrah, and Allen Kemp served as president, Bob Floden as vice-president, and Chuck Peterson as treasurer. CHESS TEAM RECORD Guilford 7 Ft. Atkinson H.S.
