Eisenhower High School 6 2 New Trier Tournament of Champions 3 ' 7 Scctionals 6 2 rewarded students Fast modes of talking and instanteous response typified the needed qualities for the highly successful debate team. Prepara- tions for the cases involved long hours of research. The practices after school proved to be well rewarding as the club brought honor to our school. Under the auspices of Mr. Maxcy, the team went on to many meets. Debate members often read the announcements over the intercom system to develop better speech habits and pronunciation. Membership was compiled to students from all three buildings. Those who earned enough points by participating in various tournaments and staging successful de- bates could become members of the National Forensic League, an honorary debate society.
