Students wishing to express their ideas and views on political and economic problems of today and wanting to develop more speaking poise joined this organization. For the first time in recent years Tama debated against other schools. On the question, Should the Legal Voting Age Be Reduced to 18 Years, Tama had two debates with Montezuma, one held at each school. They also participated in the District Speech Contest held at West Union, entering into competition with veteran debate teams from Decorah and Roosevelt High School of Cedar Rapids. Tama's affirmative team was composed of Ianet Lauderdale and Alan Iones, and the negative team made up of Alice Overturf and Georgia Betz. Declamatory Three students made real efforts this year to learn declamatory readings. These were: Shirley Moran, oratorical: Louise Kupka, Humorous: and Audra Peters, dramatic. At the district declamatory contest at G1adbrook,Louise and Audra were both second place winners. The good work in declamatory this year was due to the students' work and the direction of Miss Margaret Holroyd. Louise Kupka, Shirley Moran. Audra Peters, Miss Holroyd

The action was foot- loose and hilarious in the comedy as one older sister tried to keep order in the house after the parents left on a trip to Bermuda. Problems of love, of how to keep a budget, and how to deal with a young adolescent who was forever getting in scrapes all confronted this young lady. She survived though and everything came out happily in the end as the parents came home. Senior Class Play Breaking away from a series of comedies as class plays, the senior class presented the murder mystery, The Thirteenth Chair. The story centered around the solving of two murders, the second of which was committed during the private investigation of the first. The second murder was of the person carrying on the investigation, Hard-boiled Detective Donahue tried to solve the murders but was prevented from arresting an innocent party by the clever inter- vention of Rosalie LaGrange, a medium who was concerned with the murders. Clever lighting effects added to the suspense of the play. The cast of charac- ters included the following: Helen O'Neill .
