THE DEBATING TEAM 1942 was an eventful year at Cathe- dral, for among other things, it was the first year that C ' alhedral entered into the Forensic League, and actively partici- pated in the debates. Fhe debaters were selected: six in all, three affirmatives and three negatives. Our afHrmalive speakers were Betty Ahdoney, Eileen HoUihan, and Agnes Meade. The negative team boasted of Kathryn Sherlock, Mary (iie- gerich, and Patricia McKnight. Each team debated its op|josite from other schools throughoui ihc I ' iiisburgli dio- cese.

The program came to an end with the singing ol Iji Marseillaise. In December, Le Cercle F ancais held another meet- ing, which was presided over by Natalie Certo. Members ol the Senior Class discussed the arious phases ol French lile and customs. It is with deep regret tiiai ve relin(|uish our places as members of the French Club. Our use of French will not end in June, for we feel sure that it vill be a great help to us all through life. We know, too, that after this war is over, French will still be the language of diplomacy.
