Show Howard Coray Paul Grogger FALL NOVITIATE EXTEMPE Weber students turned out in large numbers for the Fall Novitiate Contest. Fifty students entered the three-day elimination tournament. Two freshmen, Merle Allen and Gordon Barney, placed first and second, respectively. Merle Allen received a gold key for first place, and Gordon Barney received a silver key for second place. The subject material was taken from two current issues of the Reader's Digest. BARKER EXTEMPE CONTEST On December 17, the traditional extempore clash between the Sophomore Class and the Freshman Class took place. Howard Coray and Paul Grogger were chosen to represent the Sophomore Class after a competitive three-day tournament. Merle Allen and Gordon Barney, the freshman winners of the Novitiate Contest, represented the Freshman Class. The subject material concerned the problems facing the United States today. The sophomores were victorious, and the cup was presented to Pat Quinn, Sophomore Class president, by Professor J. L. Barker, the founder of this inter-class contest.
