From the Business Angle . . . Making the Quaker pay this season was the goal of the Quaker business stall headed by senior Chris Paparodis. Chris, Who has been manager for two years, has increased the number of ads over last year, having an average of more than sev- enty column inches of advertisements every Week. Members of the ,45 Weekly staff Were Fred Gaunt, Bob Musser, Rose Ciricosta, Virginia J ugastru, Enes Equize, Janet Robinson, Ted Sabona and David Messer- smith. The staff for the annual, also headed by Chris, was made up of Vir- ginia Baillie, Martha Brian, Lovvell Hop- rich and Bill Vignovich. Without the business staff the Salem High School Quaker could not be publish- ed. It is their duty to solicit Salem manu- facturers and merchants and to put the Quaker on a sound iinancial basis. The staff appeared at all journalism conventions of Tri-County schools dur- ing the year. These conventions, started in 1938, are for the purpose of helping school publications understand the prob- lems of their own and other papers. Mr. Hilgendorf, business advisor of the staff, Was president of the convention for the school year 1944-45.

esolve hat . . . First row: Kupka, Zeller, Second row: Burrier, Pierce, Yeagley. Mr. Guiler. The Salem High School Debate Squad, coached by J. C. Guiler, debating the topic Resolved: The Legal Voting Age Should Be Reduced to 18 Yearsu fin- ished a successful season. The Salem team of this year was com- posed of Virginia Burrier and Irene Kup- ka, affirmative speakers, Marjory Zeller and Duane Yeagley, negative speakers, and Ray Pierce, alternate. Of these mem- bers Virginia Burrier and Ray Pierce were freshmen, Irene Kupka and Duane Yeagley, juniors, and Marjory Zeller, a senior. Marjory Zeller and Duane Yeag- ley were the only debaters returning from the 1943-44 squad. Although the team's early season practice was somewhat curtailed by bad road and weather conditions and by lack of transportation facilities, the squad did engage the Niles and Youngstown Rayen teams in practice contests. The team, this year, entered the Ra- venna District of the Ohio State Speech League and attended the District Tourna- ment Contest which was held at Raven- na High School on February 10. The teams which participated in the Ravenna Tournament were Salem, Ravenna, Wadsworth and Cleveland Fairview. From these teams, the winner goes dir- ectly to the State Debate Finals held in Columbus. The Salem team had not en- tered the League last season. Due to the fact that the squad in- cluded only one senior, Mr. Guiler has high hopes for a successful season next year. Mr. J. C. Guiler, coach of the squad, also is an instructor of American govern- ment and international relations at Sa- lem High School.
