OATCfut more
Champion debaters are these three
Central High school girls. They
are members of & team of ei:;ht
which has gone thus far through
the year without meeting defeat.
They have ; debated St. Edwards
High, Beatrice, South and Commerce
High, University Place High and
Cathedral High school of Lincoln.
One or more of these girls has taken
part in each of the debates.
The high school question this year
is: "Resolved that the literacy test
for the restriction of immigration
should be repealed." The various
teams in the state are sometimes
given the affirmative and sometimes
the negative side of the- question,
but that fact has apparently made no
difference to the winning Central
High school team.
Eleanor Hamilton is the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Hamilton.
Eloise Margaret is the daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. E. F. Magaret, and
Ruth Godfrey is the daughter of
Mrs. A,.C. Godfrey. Miss Margaret
is a junior and the other two girls
are seniors. Their work in debate
has not interfered with their regular
studies all of which have been kept
up to good standard.
On May 13 the Central High team
will debate with Lincoln for the Am
herst cup, and a few days later they
will meet other championship, con
testants for the state title.
The boys on the team are Carl
Kharas, William Cjenor, Morris
Block, Lyle Quinby a.nd Dick Elster.
The able coach who has guided his
pupils to repeated victories is Prof.
V. E. Chatelain.
