DEDICATI ON 'LThis man's wisdom, his accurate perceptions, his vigor of intellect, his humor, and his unselfish patriotism are known to all -Cyrus Northup. This quotation aptly describes Leo C. Mathews, debate coach and boys' counselor at Nampa High School. Mr. Mathews graduated from Kuna High. His college career includes Lewiston and Albion normals, College of Idaho, where he eamed his B.A., and the University of ldaho, where he received his master's degree. Since coming to Nampa he has taught athletics, Latin, history, English, government, debate and has been boys' counselor. ln the twelve years he has taught debate in Nampa, his debators have never failed to place in state competition. During those twelve years Nampa has won district competition. During those twelve years Nampa has won state championship eight times. Ten of those years Nampa won district competition. Mr. Mathews has had three debate teams which have had undefeated records in all tournaments. Twice his debators have won the National Forensic League Western District-'making those champs eligible for the national toumament. Twice Mr. Mathews' teams gave Nampa its greatest forensic glory by winning the Western District Outstanding N.F.L. Chapter award. This remarkable record was achieved by debators who were molded by the man to whom we respectfully dedicate this 1958 Sage.
