CENTRAL JUNIORS WIN TWO DEBATES Unusual Talent Displayed by Forceful Speakers of Lower Class The question, "Resolved, Tljat the present tendency toward vocatlbnal tiaining at the expense of academic education in secondary schools is detrimental to the coming genera ticn," is arousing much interest be tween the various class debating teams of Central High School. Two interesting debates took place yes terday in chapel. In the morning the junior boys met the seniors and were successful. The affirmative side was upheld by Tom. Caldwell, Tom Nev itt, Simon Brenner and Seymour Nisisley, alternate. On the negative side were Winston Ronrig, Karl Ston er, Earl Wright and John Koch, al ternate. The junior girls' team met the sen iors in the afternoon in one of the most forceful debates of the contest. The seniors, who upheld the negative side, were: Miss Helen Appleby, first speaker: Miss Zelma Acker, Miss Pauline Kast and Miss Sonla Zeiger, alternate. The junior team included Miss Srace Peake, Miss Rita Bux baum. Miss Merle Smith and Miss Feme Stanford, alternate. Miss Hel en Appleby was the most forceful speaker on the negative side. Miss Acker's work shows clear reasoning and she presented her points well. Miss Grace Peake, first speaker on the affirmative side, possesses unus ual ability as a debater. She spoke in a forceful and direct manner and scored most of the points for her side. Her rebuttal was well stated. Miss Rita Buxbaum is also a splendid speaker. The juniors gave a com plete slummary of their points, which was a most decided point in their fa vor. There is much promising mate rial on the two teams for the school debating team.
