Moderator: John Schmidt, Leeds High School Principal. Program Director: Art Smith, Station WNAX. Panel: Walter Duffy, Lois Rohlf, Kenneth Fertig, Georgia Kay Hix. WNAX FORUM Does Odebolt have proper home-school-community teamwork? This was the 1951 forum topic which proved to be especially interesting to everyone in our community. Kenneth Fertig, Wally Duffy, Georgia Hix, and Lois Rohlf were the participating students. The forum was recorded here at Odebolt and was presentetd on the air February 26, 1951. Mr. Shaw, high school speech instructor, directed the program. On April 16 the four panel members and Mr. Shaw took part in the spring session of the fifth annual high school forum workshop at Leeds high school. The event is sponsored by the Sioux City board of education and District Four of the lowa Congress of Parents and Teachers. John Schmidt, principal of Leeds high school, has been moderator since the forum began. The topic for the day, based on Freedom's foundation credo, was, What are the schools doing to develop responsibility on the part of each student for the preservation of the American way of life? The day began with an assembly with Leeds high school faculty and student body and visitors from the various schools. The topic was then discussed with students and participants in the classrooms. Then each forum participant prepared a four minute speech which was given and judged twice. The forum speakers and visiting teachers were the judges. At assembly in the afternoon, the four speakers rated highest comprised the final panel. Barbara Coats, Yankton high school senior, was selected top ranking speaker and she received a S250 college scholarship. Kenneth Fertig tied for second place rating with Marvin Nelson of Central High, Sioux City. Norma McCallum, Madison, S. D. was the fourth member of the final panel. The four panel members reseived plaques bearing like- nesses of the original White House. A new feature of the workshop this year was a panel of four speakers judged next highest, who were interrogators. The day proved to be very interesting and educational to all who were privileged to participate in the event. PAGE FIFTY-NINE
