Forensics really grew up this year. There were approximately sixty students participating, a greater number than ever before in the history of South Norfolk. The Forensic Club was formed to promate interest, and the members set to work early in the year to prepare for the events scheduled for the spring. In creative writing, .the students submitted short stories, poems, and essays to be entered in the writing booklets to be sent to Charlottesville. Public speaking students practiced their orations for months beforehand, and the poetry and prose readers read and read. The spelling group memorized words they had never heard before and the drama group rehearsed Overtones , until they could go through it in their sleep. Ed Shipley and Paul Rule turn knobs at the public address system and The Club undertook several big projects this year, and set some precedents to be followed by students for years to come. Forensics took to the air. Devotions were presented each morning over the PA system, either live or on tape. At Christmas time, a half hour pro- gram was recorded, using the choir as a background to the play, which was written and produced by students. Something entirely new to Tidewater schools was started here this year-our own radio station, is to be staffed and run by students, under supervision of the faculty, and the school board, and the city-on much the some principle as the annual and magazine. The officers of the Forensic Club are: President, Ed Shipley, Treasurer, Linda Peelepand Secretary, Patsy Hobbs. mano cons ole. A JZLQN WXL. -rf if .T sw Wig!! liit '. 93 , M E 1
