High School Debate.
(Contributed)

Our school has again entered
the High School Debating State
wide contests. The debate will
take place the latter part of
March, and Rockingham is in a
triangle with Wadesboro and
Hamlet. The subject of the de-
bate this year is, Resolved that
Congress should enact a law for
the Compulsory Arbitration of
Industrial Disputes.
10 boys and 7 girls have volun-
teered from our school to enter
the contest and take the training
for this debate. They are as fol-
lows:
From Woodrow Wilson Soc
iety, Charlie McCollum, Jack
Bennett, Charlie Brown, Carl Coll
ey, Willie Hope, Willie Williams,
Bruce O'Brien, Tom Marks, John
Gore, Frank Copeland, Lee
Thrower, Herbert Andrews, Tom
Covington.
From the Patterson Society,
Anna Leak Ledbetter, Willie Mea-
cham, Florence Covington, Grace
McRae, Rose Biggs, Geraldine
Smith, Mary Mcbride. There is
lots of good debating material
in this list of boys and girls, and
we can feel sure that we are 60.
ing to develop two"srrong debat-
ing teams. The spirit of the
boys and girls in enlisting SC
freely for this campaign is very
fine, and is appreciated by every
pupil and teacher of the school
they will so creditably represent.
Miss Finley, who has had much
experience in training Hig h
School debaters at Statesvllle
will have the work in charge
here, assisted as may be neces
sary by the other High Schoo
teachers. Let's all pull together
for two strong teams and the TRIP
to Chapel Hill as the result Of
winning both our debates.
