DEBA TINC. For the Hrst time in its history Monroe this year entered a team in the High School Debating League. Out of the live debates assigned us in the League we won two and lost three. All of them were closely contested and In computing points we find that Monroe won a total of seven points as com- pared with eight points for our opponents. After the League debating season was over we scheduled some debates with the strongest teams we could find in this vicinity. Our purpose in doing this was to get the training that can only come from experience in actual debates. The stronger the opposition, the better the experience, so we scheduled the best teams we could find to go against. These teams were composed chiefly of veterans of other years, experienced in debating and while they defeated us as wc expected they would, we never-the-less gained the 'training and practice we sought.
