Cluster Nilsson Leland Monson Marion Read David Trevithick FORENSICS COMMITTEE Again the English Department placed before those students particularly interested in forensics a program broad enough to include everyone. The actual success, of course, depended upon those participating as well as upon these directing. Activities were chiefly of three types: debate, extempore, and oratory. The first two public speaking activities were pursued in the McMinnville Debate, the Phi Rho Pi National Debate, and all three in the Utah-Idaho Debate. In the Weber College Utah High School Debate, the program was made to benefit the secondary schools of the state. In numerous intraschool debates, in two oratorical contests, in the Novitiate Extempore, in the James L. Barker Extempore, and in the J. S. Lewis Company Impromptu, the students increased their linquistic proficiency within the school. Mr. Monson directed debate, Mr. Nilsson extempore, and Mr. Trevithick oratory. Miss Read assisted with the high school tournament. Larry Evans Frank McQuown Robert Polidor DEBATING Debaters, this year, met with a good deal of success, due largely to the interest shown by students. OREGON TRIP On February 16, Mr. Monson, Mr. Nilsson, coaches; Lester Richardson, Paul Grogger; extemporaneous speakers; and the debating teams-Wayne Bundy and Dan Alsup; Howard Coray and Pat Quinn; Eloise McKay and Robert Polidor; Helen Abbott and Marjorie Glines-left here for McMinnville, Oregon, to enter a speaking tournament there. The debating teams won seventeen of the twenty-nine debates and Lester Richardson placed second in the extempore contest, which included students from both junior and senior colleges throughout the nation.
