Junior Debating The debating this year attracted the keen interest of many collegiate students. Our iunior debating started out with twenty-two teams in competition. The first and second rounds saw half of the debaters eliminated. The topics chosen for debate were: Country life has more advantages than city life. Television is more helpful than detri- mental to high school students. The barbarian leads a happier life than the civilized man. Immigration to Canada should be re- stricted. Students attending schools of more than 650 students have greater advantages than students attending smaller schools. After some eight weeks, the debates pro- gressed into the semi-finals. The semi-finalists were: on the winners' side, 9G and 9D, on the consolation side, IOA and IOC. The final debates were held on Wednes- day, March 21. Those participating in the winners' series were: Marilyn Avis, June Benson and Joyce Roberts I9Gi versus Tom Parker, Donna Simpson and Douglas Wilson I9Dl. The winning team was 9D. Those participating in the consolation series were: Ted Gilling, Pat McFadden and Jim LaFlamme IIOAi versus Allan Fuller, Bill Armes and Colin MacArthur IIOCI. The winning team was IOA. Crests were presented to these two winn- ing teams by the Literary Society. Janice Robins, Grade 9G Senior Debating There were ten teams from Grades II and I2 in the senior debates this year. The first topic for debate was Resolved that capital punishment should be abolished. The winners of this debate continued in the winners' series and the losers entered the consolation award. The next topic Resolved that there should be a curfew for teen-agers under sixteen years of age was debated by both divisions. The debate for the semi-final of the winners' divis- ion was Resolved that ten thousand dollars is better than a Bachelor of Arts degree. This was also the final debate for the consolation award. The team of Sheila Foster Icaptainl, Julie Cragg and Elizabeth McCullough were the winners over the team of Jim Geddie Icap- taini, Peter Little and John Osborn. In a thrilling climax a team from IIA com- posed of Jackie Douglas Icaptainl, Harry Mur- ray and Janette Brown defeated a team from I2A composed of Dave Woolley Icaptainl, Jon Pellow and Martin Herbert. The topic was Resolved that schools with an enrolment of six hundred and fifty pupils have more advan- tages than schools which have an enrolment under four hundred. The team from IIA proved that larger schools are more advan- tageous than smaller ones. Crests were presented to these teams by the Literary Society.
