It is my solemn duty to extol to you the mighty works of the Debating Club and to engrave in the minds of my readers, a recital of the over- whelming victories Qand may I add in a -minor note-lossesj of this group. I am asked-nay, demanded-that I proudly boast of the Debating Club of '36 as the best that ever orated in the time-worn hall of our Alma Mater. To do this I may have to call into action a fertile imagination. However, I sha-ll try to deal with facts as long as possible. The Debating 'Club was recently re-instated in Parochial's curriculum in an effort to improve the art of public speaking among the students. This organization has sought and apparently succeeded in stimulating in- terest and discussion on national and international questions. Unlike other times the Club this year was divided into two classes: the Senior and junior. The remaining members of the Club engaged in interclass debates. The principle topic of discussion was: Resolved- That these several -states should enact legislation providing for a system of comlplete medical service available to all citizens at public expense. The members of the varsity team were as follows: AFFIRMATIVE-Walter Panayeski, Edward Sullivan, Thomas Mur- phy, Agnes Pfeffer, Rebuttal. ' NEGATIVE-Walter Kenyon, Virginia Ewadinger, Philomena De Ray- mond, Arthur Rooney, Rebuttal. Other members of the Senior team were: Dorothy Smith, Mary McNulty, Joseph Grainda and Dorothy Roth. The various teams which Parochial debated against were those of the Asbury Park, Dover, Doylestown, Hellertown High School and the Alumni. Of all the victories the one over the formidable alumni team added most to the glory of the Parochialites. The twice repeated sub- jugation of the Asbury Park team also lent much to their prestige. All forensic activities this year were under the able direction of Mr. George C. Williams of Lafayette College. Officers of the 'Club were: President, Arthur Rooneyg Vice-President, Mary McNultyg Secretary. Philomena' DeRaymondg and the Treasurer, Walter Kenyon. Custom decrees that each successive year should hold new things. .Accordingly the Senior members of the 'Club join with me in anxiously hoping that if the Junior members cannot surpass our unsurpassable rec- ords let them be at least par, thi-s coming year.
