Last year those students interest'
ed in forming a forensic club met
together with their faculty ad-'

types of forensic activities, not'
merely debating.
This group did a fine job for
A C. C. last year. They went on;
three trips. They traveled to Eastj
Carolina College on their f 1 r s 11
trip. Later, they represented the i
college in contests at the Univer
sity of Richmond and Randolph
Macon. On their third trip they
went to the National Forensic Tour
nament at Fredericksburg, Virgi/i-
ia. The team did very well at the
National Tournament. In the;
poetry reading contest Glenn Brig-!
man was a national winner. ,
The club held its first meeting
of the fall on September 28. Work
was immediately begun on the col-,
lege question for this year. The;
question or topic is - Resolved: ]
That the United SUtes govern-1
ment should adopt a permanent
plan of price and wage controls ;
Regular weekly meetings will be
held at four o’clock every Tues
day. Any student may join this
club. There will be practice de
bates going on throughout the fall.;
