SPEECH Mr. R. Beauchamp, Scott Elder, Mary Sue Wesbrook, Robert Bean RESOLVED”: That every able-bodied male citizen in the United States should be required to have one year of full-time military training before attaining our present draft age. The above was the question discussed this season throughout the various schools in the debating league, and, due to history-making events that happened in such rapid succession, the issue proved to be a very difficult one for debating before the schedule was completed. Our first encounter was with the St. Clair Shores team, who won the decision. However, our visit to Cranbrook School, Bloomfield Hills, proved a glorious victory for the home team as the opponents previously had a record of being practically unbeatable. Our last discussion was with the Rochester High team, where we lost by only a slight margin. Although two remaining debates were scheduled, it was considered advisable by some of the schools competing to cancel the future dates, due to war conditions. Our local team consisted of Coach Mr. Robert Beauchamp, Robert Bean, Scott Elder, and Mary Sue Wesbrook. Mary Sue Wesbrook. 28
