Nolan Debate Team Stillwater's Debate Team experienced only one setback this year, but that one, at the hands of Minneapolis West High School, was enough to deprive them of the state champion- ship.

Declamation Much more interest was shown this year in declamation, due to the inclusion of a course in speech in the curriculum of the school, and although immediate results were not startling, the indications are such as point to a bright future for Stillwater in state competition. This year Marcella Sawyer completed the unusual feat of winning the dramatic cup for the fourth time and Bob Kilpatrick captured the oratory trophy for the second time in a row.
