SENIOR HIGH CLASSES
Having some what mastered the
art of developing debate brief
eight Juniors IN each Of Miss
Laughlin's English classes have
volunteered to prepare and develop
one debate. Definite proof is here
before us that the Juniors are pac-
fists; for when the proposition
"All countries should disarm," was
suggested, no one wanted to uphold
the negative side. This debate unit
concludes the Juniors formal study
of public speaking.
Every evening the gym resounds
with the voices of the play cast and
their director. From seven to nine
thirty, scenes are analysed, rehear-
sed, and repeated. The stage set
being almost completely finished
now, rehearsals are facilitated.

studying the Roman unit. In con-
nection with this unit they have
made maps of the Mediterranean
world.
