Coaches were Clean Reidinger and Rachael Fundingsland. Debate Debaters Bring Home Trophies. With a 75 percentage of affirmative and a 69 percentage of negative wins, the debate squad brought home, along with the Big Eight trophy, first place honors from the tournaments at Norfolk, Beresford, Parker and the University of South Dakota. A freshman and sophomore debate club, with every member participating in an intra school debate, has been established as a new feature in speech curriculum. Team work is needed here as is shown by George Lindeman and Stanley Halla, and Robert Shoe- maker and Kenneth Canfield, as they cooperate in this series of debates.
