Student realization of world problems is evidenced by the increasing popularity of the Declamation club. This club . . . whose purpose is training in public speaking . . . has doubled its membership in the last year. Declamation includes verse, dramatic, and humorous reading, tf-gether with oratory. Adviser of the group, Mrs. Juna Crippen, chooses five or six of these students to attend the annual Speech Festival . . . held this year in Dickinson. Another contest which may be entered is the American Legion Oratorical Contest . . . open to high school orators. Pat Williams, rehearsing with coach, Mrs. Juna Crippen, pre- pares his original oration, The Constitution-A Barrier Against Tyranny for the American Legion Oratorical Contest. Pat was first place winner in the .Z State Contest last year. MEMBERS OF DECLAMATION lounging on the stairs: ROW ONE: H. Oss, R. Swenson, J. Tostevinp ROW TWO: K, Osborne, J. Bolt, D. Fix, D.

Wann. A second example of the increase of student interest in world affairs is the reorganization of the Debate club after two years of non-existence. Meeting every Thursday with their adviser Miss Ardys Anderson, these ten girls prepared for the various debate tourneys. The first tourney . . . the St. Mary's Invitational . . . gave the team a clear picture of actual competitive debate. This was followed by the Western Divisional Toumament . . . held here in Mandan . . . which gave these argumentative' artists additional experience and helped prepare them for a good showing at the State Tournament in Valley City.
