June 6,1912 Manual has not yet forgotten her vie' tory in debate over her two sister high schools in last March. Gentle Nor will this event have Reminder been forgotten next year when the third tri-angu- lar debate demands her victory, and the retaining of the Amherst cup that now shines in our trophy case. Those who appreciated this year's ac- complishment, possibly thought little of what was behind it. Not wholly the ele- gant dinner served to the visiting and home teams by our Cooking Department, nor a long period of exclusion from so- ciety by the boys themselves, but, that power which gave impetus to the whole preparation, which spent, its energy, in- terest and thought, was one which every member of Manual's debaters esteems. The feeling which impels this editorial is one which was nourished on those numerous occasions when the loyalty of Mr. S. B. Apple was manifested to the team members.

The Cozzstazzt renzzzzder in this case was no other than the gentle- man mentioned. The two other mem- bers of the faculty, Mr. Kizer. and Mr. Drake, were also o-f great assistance to our representatives, and without these three men Manual would have been in a dangerous condition to cope with her rivals. U So when we rejoice over our victory in 1913 let us not forget the part of the feast which rightfully belongs to our loyal coaches. I 3: Well! VVell! Four years consecu- tively has Manual carried off the debat- ing honors at Missouri Missouri University. Looks now Scholarship like a settled thing. To lose in years to come would, of course, be intolerable. Each high school in Missouri is en- , titled to send a representative to Colum- bia, each representative being allowed to uphold either side of a question chosen by the university. The subject for this year's debate was: Resolved: That mu- nicipal ownership and operation of water- works and lighting plants are desirable for Missouri cities. The morning of May 4 found Manualls representative on the finals, and on that evening the honor of a S125 scholarship went to Manual. Gif course, it merely added another name to the established list of winners, which now reads: Qtis Grant, joseph John- ston, Randall Dorton, Fitzroy Simpson. lust as a matter of observation, it might be interesting to note what par- ticular organization of the school the last three names represent! i Notwithstanding the fact of the above mentioned victory, it was interesting to note that Kansas City papers of May 5 announced victories of different natures for our rival high schools, showing the system of compensation. Collecting the facts, we brief these thus: Vlfestport wins the tennis tournament at Lawrence, Kas., May 4. Central wins the track meet at Kansas City Csame dsatej. Man- ual wins the Missouri scholarship debate at Columbia, Mo. Csame dateb. In case we might in any way be prejudiced, the reader will gladly be left to decide which victory is the most desirable. . Ye fellow men! Know ye what this means? Manual has established a repu- tation! Keep it upi The NAUrn.Us is always glad 'EO ICHTU of honors conferred upon Manual's teachers. Wfe have Manual's Teacher just learned with pride Honored that Mr. Albert E. Shirling will have conferred upon him next june the degree of Bachelor of Science by the Kansas University. -E. D. P. i The Edisonian Society has presented to the school a handsome life-like por- trait of our lamented Edisonians' teacher and their be- Present loved chaperon, Mr. to Manual Herbert M. Page. The portrait has been appropriately hung in the physics labora- tory, where for fourteen years Mr. Page labored so devotedly for the good o-f his classes and for the benefit of Manual. His genial face will ever be a source of inspiration to students of physics and to members of the Edisonian Society, which he guided so successfully and en- thusiastically. -E. D. P. i :E The Pan-Civic Society of our school presented a very interesting court scene at their open ses- Pan-Civic Open sion May 2. Their Session program book was complete, edited by Er- nest ,T-osephine QFD Straub, P. C. S., B. C. L., A. B. S., C. M. S., D. D., B. B., A. B. C., X. Y. Z., etc., etc., whose name appears throughout the booklet at inter- vals of twice a page, with possible ex- ception of novelettes and advertisements. Nevertheless, the book is very commendi- able, and afforded diversion during the laborious examining of witnesses. VVe regret that the Pan-Civics did not think to call upon our Business Depart- ment fo-r a court reporter from our ranks. There are many Manual pupils who are capable for that position. For informa- tion see Miss Amy A. Meyer, one of our shorthind and typexvriting teachers.
